A hungry crowd of democrats
greeted with app'ause Louis J. Piatti's
promise that there will be "pie" for
all those who earn it, after the com
ing election. The meeting was held
in Washington hall last evening. The
chairmen of the ward committees and
the precinct men were there. The
mayor delivered a stirring speech,
punctuated with pyrotechnics and pro
fanity, to the (ielight of his hearers.
" To the victor belongs the spoils'
is good old democratic doctrine,"
said Mr. Piatti. "And if we are suc
cessful n the election, we figure we
will have at least 200 offices to give
out in the county. --
vv ho s going to get the offices 1
Well, we're going to keep a record
ef every jrecinct man's work and
the offices will be distributed to those
that make the- best showing. The
man who lives in a republican precinct
and cuts' down the republican ma
jority, will be in line for his office
just as much as the man that lives
in a democratic ward and increases
the democratic majority. But you've
got to work. You've got to get the
democrats registered and get them
out, election day.
i . Mayor In Good Form.
The mayor was really in good form,
He declared that the democratic or
ganization in this county is the best
it has ever been, but urged the work,
ers with all the powers of his ora
tory to work and work hard.
-'"In the last three weeks." he de.
dared, "the registrations have showed
two democrats registered to every
one republican."
He called upon all true demcrats to
vote no on the prohibitory amend
ment. Typewritten, lists of all the voters
registered in all precincts of the
county were distributed to the ward
leaders, who distributed them to the
precinct leaders. They are to report
back on every name by October 19.
Then came the "refreshments,"
which were on tap in a room down
stairs. ! .

MAILSCOMPLAINT
Renewed Promises Given Every
Effort Will Be Made to '
Minimize Delay.
TEXT IS NOT MADE PUBLIC
Washington, Oct. 13. Identical
memorandums from the British and
French governments replying to the
American protest against seizures of
neutral mails, were delivered today
to the State department by the em
bassies here. The text was not made
public, but the allies are understood
to give renewed promises that every
effort will be made to minimize delay
and annoyance caused by examina
tion, but to insist upon certain legal
rights in regard to mails which the
United States has denied.
The allies claim that as the United
States admits the right of censorship
for purely war purposes, it cannot
rightfully object to reasonable de
lays inevitable to that censorship.
