STANDS FOR GOOD HUMOR IN POLITICS Large Kama of Veteraas ia tha Aadleaee, ta Wheat Ha Pays a Oraeefal Trlbata-la. Paasia , Veteraas' Day at Caralval. The-meeting' which Congressman' J. Adam Bede of Minnesota addressed yesterday aft ernoon on the carnival grounds could not be properly called a political gathering, neither could Mr. Bede's speech be cor rectly termed a political one. The audi ence was composed to a targe extent of women and veterans of the civil war, the latter and the members of. the Woman's Relief corps being the guests of honor at the street fair yesterday afternoon. Realising Jhat the meeting was 'being held within the grounds of the street fair and carnival and that his audience, was made up of persons belonging to both of the big political parties, Mr. Bede refrained from making a strictly partisan speech, but contented himself with trying to amuse his listeners, and in this he was stgn-uly successful. He ' occupied the platform for nearly an hour and from his opc.ilng to his closing words ha kept his audience in one continual round of laughter. While bis address was mainly composed of amusing anecdotes and laughter-producing squibs and Jokes, the Minnesota congressman never once lost the thread of his argu ment, which was that the republican party was the party of advancement and the one which afforded the greater opportunities to the cltUen. Referring to the fact that he had been unable td ' keep his appointment here Wednesday and that Thursday had been assigned to the democrats for their meet ing, he said he felt no embarrassment in speaking on "democratic day," as he had formerly' voted the democratic ticket. In partisan politics he said there should be no bltternesa,' 'as It Was better to' have two political, parties than two factions In one party, as was now being witnessed In Wisconsin. The democrats changed their political opinions -too often, he said, and the truth was that this year they were making their campaign not on any plank, but on, a certain , telegram which was al leged, to- have 'emlnated frortl the; home of their presidential candidate. He prophesied that .William Jennings Bryan' would be a bigger factor in the democratic party four years hence. than Judge Parker would bo, Democratic Poverty. ' ' Speaking ..humorously of 'the conditions prevailing under .the democratic administra tion, 'he sold: "Why, things came to auch a pass tWt the. average citizen could .not even, pay his respects and he could not go visiting with his neighbors and friends. be cause he could not clothe Ills thoughts re-, spectably.'" He referred at some length in a similar .strain to the trust problem and before concluding raid an eloquent! tribute to the old soldiers, who formed a' large por tioh of hie audience. ',,. y The meeting was called to order by Hon. Spencer Smith, president of , Oie. Roosevelt .Republican club pf, Pottawattamie county. neiore introducing congressman ueoe Mr. Smith 'inquired If there was, in the. audi ence any person from the state of Vermont. S. F. Henry, a well-known business 'man of the city and a former member ot the Board of Education, rose to his . feet and was. called to the platform by Mr. Smith and three cheers given for1 the Green Moun tain state, where the republicans ' at Wednesday's election made ' such . large galna. ; . .-,,..-..... , Congressman Smith occupied a seat on the phttform, but did not speak, as had been announced, Mr. Bede occupying the entire time, Covalt's band at the opening of the -meeting played several patriotic se lections complimentary to tbe old soldiers and the members of the Woman's Relief corps. Thursday .was another, record-breaker in point of attendance at' the street fair and carnival, The afternoon witnessed the lsrgest crowd for that part of. the day for the week, over 3,000 tickets- belntr eold at the gates. It . was noticed that a large number of visitors from the country were present yesterday, more so- than on any previous day. One well known farmer froYn Hasel Dell township, when leaving the grounds rather early In fjie afternoon, was asked Ills haste by Treasurer Van Brunt and he answered;. Oh. I want to get home, but I will be back early. 'tomorrow and what's more, I'll have the whole family with me and I guess a number of the nelglibers and their families. - ' Tne crowd in the evening simply filled the grounds and barrels of confetti were thrown. Despite . the large crowds th.ere has been little or no roughness and any tendency in this direction on the' part of any of the Visitors Is at once stopped by the officers. The delegation from the Omaha Commercial club waa early on the grounds and stayed late, evidently greatly enjoying the various attractions. - This afternoon will be "Children's Day," and the little folk of the Christian Home and . the Associated Chsrltles' creche, will be guests of the management. This even ing will be Eagles' night and Ir. addition to the local members, large delegations front Omaha and South Omaha are looked for. v - - V Plumbing and beating, tnxtiy Bon. .: crrr employes miit pay debts Council Issaea aa Edict to the Della aaata ' City emoloyes who fall to pay their debt will be required to seek other positions.
