Following the publication Of the af-
fdavits in The Clio b e yesterday
exposing the false claims of the Re
publican campaign manager regarding
the registration, the Republican organs
closed up tight on the proposition. As
has been the case in other campaign
issues, the registration question has
been discarded.
The action Of the managers in thus
abandoning the agitation on this ques-
ton viii prove a hard blow to the am
billions Of George Wells, the discredited
detective. on whose investigation the
charges were made. The result was to
have been expected in view of the past
reputation Of Wells, which has been
ventilated in T h e @ o b e.
Further proof of the faIseness of the
claims of the Republicans was yester-
day furnished The Glob e, and is
herewith presented In the form of aft
davits from the interested parties, and
IN both instances the denials are spe-
cif1c, giving the names of the persons
entitled to vote from given houses.
The latest come from W. E. Henton,
proprietor of the lodging house at s
East Sixth street and half owner of
the saloon at $50 Wabasha, and from
Charles z. Brown, proprietor of the
lodging house at 2491a East Seventh
street It was claimed by the Repub-
lcan committee that there were no Ie-
gal voters in these two places, yet the
proprietor makes oath that seventeen
legal voters are registered from the
houses. and that, furthermore, the sew
enteen men will be voted.
Personal DeniaIs Filled.

men at 24912 East Seventh street came

entered their denial that they have
been guilty Of attempting to pad the
registration. All were indignant at
what they termed a brazen attempt to
intimidate them TO the extent that they
would De frightened out of voting
Tuesday. Said HentOn:
Every man registered from nv
house is legal voter, and 1 defy the
Republican challenger of the precinct

very idea OF the Republicans saying
that there is not a legal voter in the
house Is prepOsterous, as myself and

living there are as much entitled to

vote as are the men responsible for the
statement"
Said Brown:
Il did not want people to think that
1 have been guilty of even attempting
to pad the registration, and to prove
that am acting honestly and that only
legal voters have been registered from
my house I have brought the men
with me. My registration was the
fourth from the house. The four are
legal voters, and I would like to find
the Republican who can prevent US
from voting Tuesday"
When Brown made affidavit the
three voters accompanying him also
took the oath that the statements made
were true.

DEMOCRATS ENTHUSE
IN THE SIXTH WARD
Hold ROusing Meeting at Paul
Martins Hall, Which Is
Packed to Doors.

The largest and most enthusiastic
political meeting ever held in the Sixth
ward took place last night at Paul
Martins hall, Colorado and South Wa
basha streets. While the hall was
packed TO the doors and numbers were
unable to gain admittance, a Repub-
Hcan meeting, which was to have been
held in the same building, was aban-
doned.
So interested was the vast crowd
that every mention of a Democratic
candidate evoked cheers and every
point raised by the numerous speakers
brought forth hearty applause.
Thomas D. O,Brien, who spoke on
the issues Of the campaign and touched
upon the individuals on the Demo-
cratic ticket, created unbounded en-
thusfasm when he mentioned the at
ttude of the Democratic administra-
ton towards the public service cor
pOrations
You have seen what the Democratic
corporation attorney did for the gas
company and you have heard what he
has said concerning the position of the
city toward the street railway COM
pany. 1t is fortunate for the city that
the term of the Republican corporation
attorney expired before the term of the
gas company's franchise.
The public service corporation cues
ton concerns the people more than
any other, as it directly affects every
one In his daily life. 1t is of impor-
lance to every one to have his gas bill
reduced from $3.50 TO 81, and it is of
Importance to secure TO the city the s
per cent Of the gross earnings which
the law provides shall be paid by the
companies.
Peoples Rights Guarded.
When the corporations pay their
tax the people will be relieved of
portion of the burden. The gas COM
pany is now attended to- and I fear no
contradiction when I say that never
since the company was organized by
Gen. Sibley have the rights of the
people been better guarded. Corpora
ton Attorney J. c. Michael was able.
with the support of the Democratic
council, to secure these benefits to the
people.
Another important question is still
pending and that is involved in the
street railway company Corporation
Attorney Michael has ruled that the
company cannot extend its lines till it
agrees to come within the gross earn
ings provision of the charter. and he
will not relent. With the support Of a
solid Democratic council the city will
maintain its position and the company
Will not secure advantage over the peo-
ple.''
Taking up the names on the Demo-
cratic ticket Mr.. O'Brien paid a tribute
to each. Robert A. Smith has grown
gray in the service of the city, said
he, and he is intimately acquainted
with its needs. He has spent his life
in St. Paul, and the knowledge he has
gained during the past fifty years is
now at the city's disposal. St. Paul is
to celebrate its semi centenniaI this
year, and should We not have r. A.
Smith at the head ?"
Ed Weisengerger acted as chairman,
and addresses were made by VIM
Powers, Michael Doran Jr., James Cor
mican. ]. 1. Farley, Frank L. Powers,

to the young men and women. but this
year i'll health prevented the customary
address, and he was not even able to
attend the exercises. But to him the
disappointment was no greater than to
the students, and after the service was
at a close the class marched to the
home of the honored .anitor and, gath
erng In front of the house. gave him
hearty cheering. The sick man was
touched by the demonstration, but he
was unable to say a word. In the col
