FOR PRESIDENT WILLIAM MCKINLEY FOR VICE-PRESIDENT THEODORE ROOSEVELT SATURDAY, NOV. 3, 1900. RALLY ON THE,CENTER. The campaign is over. The long roll has sounded; the bugles have called boots and saddles; the boys have fallen into line, touched elbows, and wait with eager impatience to charge the enemy and rout them. The outboots have all been called in. J. B. H. and from Maine to California they are rallying on the center with a courage that is invincible and a determination that presages victory. There is not a coward in our ranks, not a living soul who does not feel that when the polls close next Tuesday night the Bryan-Tillman-Altgeld party will be routed horse, foot and dragoons, and will be scouring hither and yon, utterly demoralized. "It is a consummation devoutly to be wished," a deserved rebuke for a party that would dishonor our country, debase our money and bring reproach upon the proud title of American citizen. Altgeld, Tillman, Bryan and their cohorts will pass out of public notice, and will be remembered only as we remember some horrible dream that was filled with dire forebodings and impending disasters. God Almighty still reigns supreme, and He will continue to guide and direct this country until its mission has been accomplished, and mankind the world over are brothers indeed. So be of good cheer, fellow republicans, McKinley will surely be reelected—but do not forget to vote for him, and have your neighbors do likewise—just to make it certain. BRYAN NOT OUR FRIEND. What reasons can any Afro-American, Bishop Turner, or any other, have for throwing his influence in favor of Bryan? Not one can be given. - The wisest man cannot assign a single reason for supposing that Bry- PETER H. BURGESS IRA 9. MILLS. For Railroad and Warehouse Commissioner. an's election would effect any good whatever for the Afro-American race, for it cannot be shown that in any one of his numerous speeches he has ever hinted at any of the remotest plans for doing anything of the kind. He raves about the "consent of the governed," but has it carefully understood that he refers to the Philippine islands and not to South Carolina. He has no word of rebuke for Goebelism in Kentucky, Tillmanism in South Carolina, Crokerism in New York, or Altgeldism in Illinois. He howls about trusts, always excepting the one of which National Chairman J. K. Jones is president. He is sorely grieved about alleged violations of the constitution, but never even whispers a word of censure for his friends in South Carolina, Louisiana and Mississippi, who have openly and shamelessly nullified the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments. He cannot do so, for the solid south nullifiers and lynchers and the New York mobocrats are his warmest friends and most enthusiastic admirers. If by any single incident, vote or saying Bryan has shown any interest in the welfare of the Afro-American race or any individual thereof, history has failed to record the fact. Several attempts have been made to sound him upon his attitude toward the Afro-American race, without any A. H.

He was afraid to say anything unfavorable, lest he should offend Afro-American voters in states where they held the balance of power, and equally afraid to say anything favorable lest he should offend his friends, the southern lynchers and northern mob. Bryan represents no correct principle or sensible policy whatever, and all his tendencies are in dangerous directions. And some of the moves made in his behalf seem totally idiotic, as, for instance, that of importing the blackguard Tillman to squirt his fith into the faces of decent people. The single fact that the Goebelites of Kentucky, the mobocrats of New York, the lynchers of the south and the cranks of everywhere, from Carl Schurz down to String-heel Jim, are followers of Bryan, is sufficient evidence that he could not safely be trusted with a much smaller office than that of president. When before was the hat passed around among school children to aid in electing a president of the United DEFEAT RELEASE IT'T The States? When was a man the candidate of two parties as hostile to each other as the democrats and populists? History presents no other such anomaly. Again, it is the first time that business enterprises are conditioned upon the election or rejection of a presidential candidate. Business men view with apprehension Bryan and his motley followers. They could adapt themselves to any one policy that was announced in advance, but Bryan's policy is a Jacob's coat of many colors—one thing being the paramount issue to-day and another to-morrow. His 16 to 1 paramount issue disrupted his party, defeated him and was M. B. PETER E. HANSON, For Secretary of State. PETER H. JOSSEPH G.

He devotes his entire time to exciting a craze among the disreputable and dangerous elements of society. Afro-Americans have more to fear than any other class the condition of things the election of Bryan would produce. They share the general prosperity of the country.

The bugles have sounded the charge! Up, boys, and rout them; chase them from the hill tops, from the woods, from the fence corners, from every coigne of vantage they may possess. There are more than 200 Afro-American newspapers published in the United States, and of these but six are supporting the democratic ticket. The others are true to the grand old party. Nearly all of the prominent Afro-Americans who strayed away into the Bryan camp have come back to the republican fold. They say there is no place in the democratic party for the Afro-American. Think of having Boss Croker as secretary of the treasury. That's the way it will be if Bryan is elected. By the democratic system of disfranchisement in the south a vote in South Carolina counts more than two votes in the state of New York. Under the theory of the "consent of the governed" the Afro-American citizens of South Carolina should govern that state, but as a matter of fact the whites have driven out the Afro-Americans, making them the governed without their consent. Some southern coward, who is afraid to sign his name, has written to the editor of the Chicago Appeal giving M. CHARLES F. STAPLES. For Railroad and Warehouse Commissioner. him a "roast" on account of the strong articles denouncing southern methods. The letter writer says that the cotton crop of the south is large and a great deal of it is made into ropes to use on "impudent niggers." Mr. Bryan says: "I challenge our opponents to find in act or utterance of mine a justification of the charge that if elected I would not enforce the laws of the United States." Gen. Jackson said that he had sworn to uphold the constitution of the United States—as he understood it. Perhaps Mr. Bryan would, if etc., enforce the laws of the United States as he understands them; or as Altgeld, Tillman, Waite and Croker would interpret them; and that is just what worries the people. They do not want that kind of enforcement. Cyraus Field Adams, member of the national republican advisory committee during the present campaign, has had correspondence with more than 7,000 of the most prominent Afro-Americans in the northern states, where the vote of the race is counted and counts for something. These include ministers, professional and business men, secret society leaders and men of general prominence. In their last reports on the political situation they say that the Afro-American vote will be loyal to the republican party, which gave freedom to the slave and enlarged opportunities to the freemen, and that from 90 to 95 per cent. of the vote will be cast for McKinley and Roosevelt.

J Madison Vance, of Louisiana, and Prof. Henry Arnett, of Ohio, who came to the city under the direction of the National Republican committee. ‘The gentlemen addressed a large meet- ing of the Central Colored Republican Club at Twin City Hall, presided over by Mr. W. 'T. Francis, a large number of ladies being in the audience. They also spoke at a meeting of the Fourth Ward Republican Club on Cedar street, presided over by Mr. Will Johnson. At each of these meetings they created much enthusiasm and carried their hearers by storm. At each meeting they were questioned by members. of the opposition party, but they were ready with answers ‘that very much discomforted their questioners. There was a number of other speakers at each meeting. Refreshments were served at each meeting, ice cream and cake being on the bill of fare at Twin City Hall. ‘They were guests of the Asioria Hotel during their stay in the city. ‘They were treated to a carriage drive about the eity by Mr. T.

He is a_tipical representative of the solid German element of the population, fully quali- fied by a reputation for integrity for the responsible office -he s nominated to fill. His opponent is busy explain- ing how he happened to go through bankruptey twice in recent years and is apparently solvent still, Ole H. Oace fs making a vigorous canvass for representative in the dis- trict of the Bighth and Ninth wards, south of the Great Northern tracks. He is making daily inroads on tite normal Democratic majority in that section. His friends are urging in his behalf that a Republican can do more for the city than Democrats in the leg- fslature, and that every Republican member can be depended upon to vote fo? Knute Nelson for United States senator. Lacs M. W. Fitzgerald, at present chiet clerk in’ the office of clerk of courts, is the Republican candidate for regis- ter of deeds of Ramsey county. Mr. Fitzgerald ts a poor man with oni his salary to depend upon and therefore is not spending much money in his campaign, but he will get there just the same for his sterling worth is recognized on all hands by: those who Know him best. He has made no promises, but it is safe to gamble that all classes of citizens will be treated fairly at his hands. His friends are legion among all classes and as he has on many occasions shown his kindly good feeling towdrd the Afro-Ameri- cans there is little doubt that he will receive their unanimous support Tt is seldom that an official is so admirably fitted for the responsibility jot his office that he is enabled to give universal Satisfaction. Judge E. W- Bazille has elevated the Ramsey coun- ty probate court to the position of dig- nity commensurate with its import- fance; has purified the court of many objectionable practices and by the ex- jereise of keen legal mind and the ap- lication of a practical knowledge of mon and affairs administered the difi- Jcult tasks imposed upon the probate lcourt to the entire satisfaction of pub- lie and bar. Without exception mem- bers of the legal profession speak in ‘most complimentary terms of Judge Bazille and the dignified yet unosten- tatious way in which he discharged [the multitudinous and arduous duties Jot his most trying office. His re-clec- tion by a handsome majority is gen- erally conceded. Horace E. Bigelow, who is a candi- date for a second term as county at- torney, made such a good record dur- ing the past two years that his calling and election are sure. He was born and bred in St, Paul in i867 and graduated with the class of 's8 at Williams Col- lege. Afterwards he took the law course at Columbia College, and com- menced the practice of law in St. Paul in the spring of 1891. At first he was alone, but afterward became a member of the firm of Lawler, Dur- ment & Bigelow, withdrawing to be- come a member of the law firm of Bigelow & Taylor. In 1886 he was elected alderman from the Fifth ward, and when re-elected hs executive abil- ity and clear insight into public mat- ters were recognized by his"election as president of the board of aldermen. and thus acting mayor during Mayor Doran's absence... Tae Among the county officials one of the best known is Mr. Henry Gallick, the court commissioner, whose office is at°26 Court House. ‘He was born in Germany in 1861, and in 1878 he came to the United States, settling in New York city, and engaged in the boot and shoe manufacturing interest. He afterwards went to Mexico, and thence came to St. Paul in 1881, and embarked in the boot and shoe mant- facturing industry in the city until November, 1896, when he was elected Jcourt commissioner for Ramsey county for the term expiring January 1, 1901. Mr. Gallick is an earnest and active Republican, and influential in the lo- jeal party, and he is also well known socially as a member of the Knights of Pythias, Woodmen of the World and Knights of Honor. It is not to be doubted that the numerous connec- tions thus formed will aid powerfully in his re-election to. the court commis- sionership, for which he is again a candidate ‘on the Republican ticket. During the absence of the judge of probate for over two months Mr. Gal- Hck filled the position in a manner very satisfactorily to all parties. W. R. Johnson, Republican nominee for the second term as county auditor, was born in Oswego, N. Y., fitty years Jago and came to. Minnesota when his parents settled in Olmsted county in 1854, His early education was acquir- fed in an old: backwoods schoolhouse where he attended during the winter terms, working on the farm in the intervals. At the age of seventeen he left home and for a time led a no- madic life working on steamboats and railroading. In. 1874 he came to St. Paul and was employed in succession at the Metropolitan and Merchants’ hotels. In 1880 he became janitor of the Franklin school and while engaged in this employment he attracted the attention of Prof. Taylor, at that time conneced with the school and by whoze assistance he was enable to better his education, In 1886 he received the ap- pointment of secretary of the board of trustees of the Odd Fellows insti- tution, on Fifth and Wabasha streets, which’he held until elected auditor. In 1892 he was elected assemblyman from the Eighth ward and was twice re- elected. He has made an admirable officer and his election is almost a foregone conclusion.

Fulton Five people realize the enormous fund this exotic Tammany has been able to thus accumulate during its brief existence. To the cold, unscrupulous eyes of the politician, the executive department of the state government belongs the shame and discredit of discovering and utilizing the means for creating this political bonanza of corrupting wealth. To carry on the debasing work of a Tammany organization, money, and a large amount of it is absolutely essential. Its life depends upon money, and the discovery that the state office holders and employees in Minnesota had never been subjected to the outrageous indigence of being "squeezed" by their party managers, afforded the opportunity and the method for securing the life blood saxon for this Tammany, by a transfusion from the veins of the office holders. In the above list we have not included the pay rolls of the School and local school institutions. The local Tammany bosses have not yet, so far as known, to send tribute from the old soldiers or from school teachers and pupils. Still, if the administration was given another two years to perfect its "system," as it piteously pleads for, it might remedy this oversight. MINNEAPOLIS. DOINGS IN AND ABOUT GREAT "FLOUR CITY."

He has been engaged in this profession for a large number of years and is thoroughly capable, he will always been an earnest worker for the county, and would benefit St Paul; he has a large number of friends who are endeavoring to make his vote the largest on the ticket. Never during the campaign has his worth been questioned and when he meets his first term the people will simply thank him for his tenure. Mr. Pederson came to St Paul thirty-two years ago, and for ten years has been holding a responsible position in the office of the city attorney, in the position under both political parties is that of Mr. Pederson's ability in his profession, and a warrant that his work as county surveyor will be well and thoroughly performed. Mr. Pederson is a member of several societies, and a firm believer in those fraternal orders that provide for the stricken families of those who were surveyors, and thus this.

VOTE STRAIGHT REPUBLICAN TICKET. On Sept. 18th a whirlwind struck the Seventh ward and the Third and Fourth prefects of the Eighth ward, when Rukard Hurd, candidate for the legislature, walked off with fifty of the first experience in politics. The result of his many years of business management, executive training and experience and the result of having the friendship, confidence and enthusiastic co-operation of the prominent business and professional men of the city. His methods, strong and winning personality, roused the Seventh ward as it has never been roused before. He, is he from Ohio. He was born in Chicago, and he says he is the kind of Republican "that mother used to make." He comes from old colonial-Revolutionary stock and for years he has been a leader, if not the fountain head, of every patriotic movement in the state. He has been a leader in his earnest, intense personality permeats his business; patriotic and public spirited work or whatever he undertakes. A many sided, many talentful heart, he hears whole hearts. None know this better than the Afro-Americans of this city, who love and respect him for his many deeds of kindness to them. He has been a champion of honor and to support such a man as Major Rukard Kurt The candidates for railroad and ware house commissioners on the Republican state ticket are Ira B. Mills and Joe Johnson. They are the four-year terms and Charles F. Snyder two-year term. These gentlemen are all well and favorably known to the voters of the state as broad-minded men who have in view the interests of the state are aided by their official decisions and are lied upon in the discharge of their official duties to render due justice and consideration for all classes. Judge Mills, who was on the district court, is a fourth-quarter judicial district, residing at Minn., is beloved and esteemed by all who appreciate legal knowledge tempered with a sense of justice and equity and he has always shown these qualities while serving in the capacity of judge that section of the state. His services and experience for five years on the railroad and warehouse commission in state also particularly equip him for further usefulness in this direction. Mr. Miller, who resides at Two Harbors, Minn. has been dentified actively with the railroad business and will receive a hearty support from forty thousand voters who earn their living from actual labor, whether from work or in other occupations identified with the interests of labor. His knowledge of railroad work will make him especially valuable in a technical sense on the commission. Mr. Charles F. Staples, of Dakota county, has earned the reputation of a fighter in the legislature for laws look-around railroad rates as would conduce to education treatment of farmers and shippers, at the same time having in view fair treatment and consideration of railroad rates. All these candidates are popular with the railroad employees, having been met by them in their travels over the country, in advance and we bespeak for them, in advance and sincere support of all classes of our citizens, including those who earn their living in railroad occupations.

Be sure to make a vigorous fight for the Republican candidates for congress in every district where there is a position of election. A Republican congress is needed to uphold the president. The wage earner who works a full day is entitled to full pay in honest money for his toll. A 50-cent dollar is not honest money, and Bryan knows it. American honor is involved in the question of the American dollar. Both must be preserved untarnished.
