BEDE KEEPS CROWD LAUGHING
Minnesota Congressman Dolmn Address
on the OarniYal Qrounds.
STANDS FOR GOOD HUMOR IN POLITICS
Large Kama of Veteraas ia tha

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.
