CROWDS At HARLOWS

The crowd of femininity which
passed and repassed the Times office
Tuesday led the force to look out to
see where they were all going. Har-
low Dry Goods company's sale seemed
to be the goal Of most of them.
Curiosity led one Of the members of
the force to follow an unusually big
bunch of women over to the store,
but lost them in the mad rush for
bargains. The usual funny scenes
Of women struggling over one little
piece of goods or lace that promises
to be unusually cheap were lacking,
the crowd was too orderly and we'll
taken care Of so the newspaper people
had to go away and look for excitment
some place else.

Mr.. Seidel is candidate for the

deal for the most lart with political
issues. He spoke at some length on
municipal affairs III general and also
on the policy of the Socialists when
they got in power as they did in
Milwaukee.
They fought the monej Il interests
where they we're depressing the poor,
waged war on the redlight districts
and liquor interests. In the national
issues as we'll as city ones Seidel said
that the Pysocialists we're prepared to
follow the same tactics as they di6 In
Milwaukee. Finally in the last elec-
zion Seidel was defeated but pointed
out thai he received more votes than
he eyer had before but that the two
parties stood out against him together
with the liquor interests and the
lower element of the town.
Geo D. Brewer, candidate for nu-
gress on the Socialist ticket made the
first address Of the evening aud was
we'll received by the audience. He
has been the escort Of Mr., Seidel In
