Itwasapreit night for republicans , and especially those of tbe Piflh ward. Between holding a caucus which detained many until midnight and holding u rousing republican rally they bad their bands full. Hon. J. ( j. Tute and \ \ . S. Summers were billed to speak at Erf ling's ball and the an nouncement was sufficient to bring republi can enthusiasm up to tbe boiling point- Just as tin electric lights were turned on the members of the Fifth Ward Flambeau club , tbo banner marching club of the city and the petcluuoftho Fifth \varJ , asscra Died at too club room fifty strong. For the tirst tima thu bays bad on their new zouave uniforms. The uniform consists of a red and white fez , blue Jacket trimmea with white , and Unoo pants , white loggias and u white sash. Tuen the Tnurston Drum corps dropped in , tha object being to have the Flambeau club and tbo drum corps escort tno speakers to Ibo bull. Torches waru lighted and im- meaiatciy went up in u blaze of glory , Just because come careless or malicious grocer bau sold the boys gasoline instead of ueroiouc. As lamp after lamp exploded , < vild cheers split tbe air until ibo country surrounding Clark street and Sherman avcnuo brUtlod out with excitement. It was Just then that tuo arum corps ana tnc r lambcau club took up the line of march , and lamplcsa aud llirbt- less they wended tholr way to the Allllnrd , being frequently cheered by crowd * congre gated on ibo several street corners. After giving au exhibition of fancy drilling tbo boys started on tbu return trip AS a body guard for tbo speakers , who roio ID a car riage nnd were ctuiparoned by W. A. Sauu- ders. W. N.

' democrats , Independent * ana a lair sprinkling of ladles were there to bear the preaching of republican docltiocj. Tbe arum corps beat out lu most choice selection and then the meeting wai ready for business ana the audience was ready to listen to two eloquent and lorelblu speeches. Air. Summers upon being introduced bv W. A. Sauudur * . said that it was not often that a member of tno republican parly wa obliged to scud a substitute to tbo front. However , ho said , bo appeared ns a substi tute. It was intended that lion , George H. Hastings should oo with tbo Filth warders , but that it was absolutely necessary lor him to address a meeting In Nuckoils county. Air. Summers said that ho was not uilfea for a speech , as the Han , J. U. Tale was tbq gen eral in command. Thu campaign was one of euucatlon.

Tate said that the avenues to success were open to every man , woman and child. Tbo distinguishing element entered into Ihe discussion of Ibo campaign. There were three things thai entered into the discussion , free trade , free coinage nnd free oallot. Tbe maenenJenLs bad said that they were in fiver of free trade , frco coinage , and It bad been asserted that tbo\ were in tavor of a free oallot. Tnc democrats wcro in favor of free trade and frco coinage , bat they baa not been In favor of a free ballot. "Tauo tbe force bill , " he remarked , "and It will be found that the republican puny said that every man should have a free ballot , let bun bo white or black. Ill could havfl ray way , I would see that every man baa a free ballot and bad It honestly counted if it , look the whole United States to protect it. " Air. Tdto said that It was worth a great deal to be u citizen of the United States. K bad cost him the lieutenant governorship of tbe state of Nehraitjn , "hut , " said ho , "I would rather be a citizen of tbe United States than lo bo lieutenant governor for eighteen years. " In tbo early ' 03s , said the speaker , while America was engulfed in a civil war and American factoties were in tncir infancy , tbe ' furnaces of England wore burning brig'btly ; men were working full Urns and were re ceiving good wacoi. Then American capital decided that iron rails could be made from the metals of Ihe mountains of Pennsylvania. Tbo result was tbnt in a abort time a pro tective tariff was placed upon iron and steel rails. The furnaces of Ungland began to burn low , and as each ono went out ono was lighted in America. As a revolt , English workman were cut from six to live days and then to four per week aud this was the result of the American protective tarut. KiiKliind'M Alii to the Itehcls. In ISCl England again torgotborbonor and sent Ibo Ai.iu.inn to defeat the government. It was not to turther the cau > o of slavery that led linflaud lo do Ibis , but it was that she might baojino the inUtraas of iho faeas and place her freu traJo wares upon tha marts of tills country. It was a shaiue that any American should cry out "douu with protection. " "If you wanl frro tr.ide.1' said .Mr. Tate , "why in God's uamo don't you go where it isf" In discussion free trade ho said that It was a good deal IIKO cboiora. If It was lo bo bad , ii was bolter to let some ono else have It. "Wiliiara McICinloyY anid the speaker , and then there was a deafoplng cheer , "I regard as tbo American of America , and four years hence I hope to sea blio tuu standard bearer of the grand old republican party " Knglanawas u manufacturing nation ne- cause she could not boanyiblnR else.
