| Show At the close of the Columbus' day celebration Friday afternoon a gentleman gentle-man arose and announced that there wonld be a democratic meeting In the council booe in the evenirtg. The master of ceremonies had granted him permission to make the announcement upon condition that be would announce both meetings (democratie and repub-licrn) repub-licrn) but this partizan patriot an-nouueed an-nouueed two democratic meetings apd left the republican meeting to take care of itself. This is to be greatly regretted. The speaker should bare announced that both parties would bold a meeting or have held hi? tongue. It Is not fair to thus take an advantage of an opponent oppo-nent and we are surprised that one of onr most prominent citizens should be guilty of so doing. The Import of the annonncement was greatly reduced as the opposing foroes hdld a joint debate and the only annonncement that held good was that of Mrs. Gordon's democratic demo-cratic lecture. |
