Tho Democratic Love
Feast. What They Did, And Who
They Were.
Chicago, April 14. The banquet
he 1'almer house ou Friday evening wa-
an eloquent commemoration of the na
ul day of the father of democracy. The
iriuciplts annunciated by Thomas Ji-f
ferson, and living still in the platform ol
he democratic party, were again given
utterance last uight under the auspice
of the exponent organization of that
tarty in the northwest and southwest.
ucorporattd Oct. 19, 1881, the Iroquia
ciub has assumed a position of national
mportance, and today thousands
will reud the published peech-
deiivertfd it its bauquet boar-i,
ami make auguries for 1884. The gath
ering was a large one aud many a name
among the list of guest is known where
reputation and brain are respected and
admired.
The large main dining hall of the
Palmer afforded barely sufficient apace
for the accomodation of the guest, and
when all weie seated the array presented
was one worthy of description. The
room was brilliantly lighted, and the ap- !
point menta and decorations were superb.
A raised platform at the north end of the
hall a table stretched from end to end,
and before eight long tables, all covered
with snow white cloth, reached to all the
extremities.
Interest was centered, however, on
those who occupied the prominent po
sitions at the raised table. The fol
lowing gentlemen were seated at this
table: Erskine M. Phelps, president
of the Iroquois club, in the center; on
the right president U. S. Senator T.
F. Bayard, of Delaware; Hon. Thos.
Ioyne, William F. Vilas, of Madison,
Wis.; Judge Lambert Tree. Col. W. C.
. Breckinridge, of Lex ington, Ky.; A.
F. Sneeberger, Hon. Lyman Trumbull,
James G. Jenkins, of Milwaukee; Hon.
William Springer, of Springfield, 111.;
Ion. Carter II. Harrison, Judge J. O.
logers, S. Corning Judd, Judge Gary.
On the left Rev. Galusna Anderson,
James 0. Broadhead, of St. Louis; J.
T. Doane, Wm. Henry Uurlbut, of
New York; L. Z. Leiter, Gen. J. C.
Black, of Danville, 111.; Everett P
Wheeler, of New York; Judge. T.
yle Dickey, J. Sterling Morton, T. M.
Shaw, of Springfield, 111.; J. U. Ure
gory, Hon. J. R. Doolittle, Hon. R. W.
ownshend.
The toasts of the evening were:
"Our country," responded to Senator
Bayard, of Delaware.
"Thomas Jefferson," by Hon. James
O. Broadhead, of Missouri.
Democracy past, present and fu
ture" by Col. W. F. Vilas, of Wisconsin.
"The constitution ? bj Hon Lyman
Trumbull, of Illinois.
"Manifest destiny by Col. W. C. P
Breckenndge, of Kentucky.
A tariff for revenue," by E. P.
Wheeler, of New York.
"Temperance a virtue, prohibition h
vice, responaea to uy j. u. .1 en kins,
of Wisconsin.
'The Democratic Press," by Wm.
II. Hulburt, New York World.
"The Great Northwest," by Gen
eral John C. Black, of Illinois.
"Monopolies Should N-t Rule by
Congressman Win- M. Springer, of
Uinois.
Public Office, a Public Trust," by
Mayor Carter II. Harrisou.
Harrison's speech created some
sensation. He arose to speak at 2
o'clock and at once deserted his
original text and entered Into a fiery
denunciation ofiree trade doctrine in
its broadest sense as previously adro
cated by Col. Vilas and other speak
ers. The mayor predicted dire disas
ter to the democratic party If it
abandoned moderate protection and
user ted in an out and out free trade
plank in its national platform.
His remarks create 1 considerable
dissatisfaction among other speakers.
The speech credited to Harrison in
the morning papers was not spoken.
T-morrow his real speech will bo
published.
