BOinothitiK cxtr.iordinary. The uvetiuo is
bounded en one HiUo by the broud expaiiHo of
the lake park , and over this ( , 'ieat sweep of
Kreun sward the people massed themselves
In thousands Their objeet evidently was
not to see the marches , for that

Old time force , and his remarks weroieceivi'd
With great enthusiasm. Facing the vast
Crowd in battoi \ I ) , bo said :
The twentv four years of republican rule
In the I'nitcd States form an epoch second
cnly in Importance to these great joars com-
tirehendeil between the Declaration of Inde
pendence and the organiratton of the federal
government. These years lo.ich from 18(11 ( to
1885 , and were distinguished by advance m
ovorj department of industry , and progress
In every Held of human olTort , more extra
ordinary than were over realized within a
like period in any ago in any other country.
At the conclusion of twenty four years the
executive power of the nation was trans
ferred to the democratic party , and the po
litical campaign in which the American
people ate now engaged is to determine
whether the democratic pait\ shall continue ,
pr whether the republican party , on its roc-
prdd of achievements , shall bo intrusted
with n now lease of power.
* Tlio republicans contend that the general
tvolfnro of the country has not been promoted
meted by the democratic administration , and
that the democratic promises of reform have
* Boon signally dlsregaraed and trampled upon.
Tboy Contend that the administration has
jeen against the material welfare of the
' country ; that it has not maintained national
honor , and that It threatens the Impairment
of our Industrial system whereby , under the
protective tariff , the country ha * ndx'anccd
FO rapidly in power and prosperity Hcpitb
lieans arraign Cleveland for falling short of
the promises made when his administration
v/as inaugurated , and for duiippolnttni : the
Just expectations which his words inspired
They arnujjn him for his failure to Improve
the civil scrxlro , as ho promised In oveiy
form of words in uhu.h ofllcial pledges
could bo expressed. Instead of re
form there has boon constant do-
tcrtorut'on Itialead of ourlug the
i stem of partisan removals , the president
has developed it to su < li an extent that more
otllrlals hav been removed from oflleo dur
Ing the present administration without
charges and for mere political reasons than
by any three of his predecessors in oflico ,
oven though tlm-o may be selected who were
eight years i-ach in the presidential chair
The sKils | Hystcm , Instead of being rooted
up , as the president promised , has been de
veloped more intenselj than ever before , and
the assessment ot ofllroholdors is so notori
ous that the chairman of tlio democratic
national committee take * his station In one
of the hotels at Washington , within sight of
the white house , and , as 1 road from a con
gratul.itory dispatch published In a demo
rratlc paper , received assurances of contribu
tions from more than ono hundred olllce-
holders m a single day.
The republicans arraign the president for
luvinir surrendered the rights of the country
in the fisheries of the North American coast
in a in inner deiogatory to the dignity of the
nation , and in utter disregard of the rights
of the nation. The republicans arraign
Cleveland for his utter disregard of the
rights of the poor , needv soldieis who incitr-
led their distress and their poverty in the
service of the nation , nnd who , by the inter-
IMsition of the president's veto , are deprived
of the pittance voted them bv the republican
suuitc and the democratic house. Not onlj
has the president vetoed the general bill
passed for the relief of all needy ana de
pendent soldiers , but in more than two hun
dred cases ot peculiar nnd personal suffei ings
the president ImS interposed his powur to
prevent these creditors of the nation from
receiving their Just dues. His veto of tlio
bills , both general and personal , has thrust
thous inds of soldiers for their duil.y subsist
ence upon the humiliating alternative of pit-
vato charity or public poor houses.
The republicans arraign the president not
ineielv for his vi'lo of the pension bill , but
for his general and dangerous use of the veto
power , without precedent in the previous
history of the country , and altogether bu-
yond the conception or imagination of these
who ftamed the constitution. JotToison.
wliom the dumoirats have politically clcillcd
as the founder of their p.uty , had eight years
ot administration distinguished bv trouble
some periods and bv events of gi oat mo
ment , and yet ho never found occasion , oven
once , for using the veto , so great \\as his 10-
spoct for tlio will of the people as manifested
thiough their representatives in congress.
fCheersl.
for the long period from Washington's in
auguration to the close of the Arthur admin
istration the veto was used but sovcntj ( Ivo
times in all. Cleveland's term rounds out
the first century of the federal govern
ment , nnd thus far in his administration
lie has used the veto iflU times , more than
four times as frequently as was used by all
his predecessors m the long period of nlnotv-
slx years. It seems to mo that the. presi
dent's conception of the veto power is that
wherever ho would vote "no" if he were a
member of the senate or house , ho would
veto the measure as president , \\hich is nn
entirely now intoi pretation of the constitu
tion , unknown to the founders of the govern
ment , and absolutely repudiated by everyone
who has occupied the presidential chair before -
fore him I admit that thn framers of the
constitution never intended to make the
president a third legislative power , with n
vote that could override botn the others.
Such a use of the veto power has been con
demned by all the great statesmen of
both parties. Such a use of the
veto power would dethrone any
constitutional monarch in Europe. [ Cheers. ]
It was such a use of the veto powers that
KIIVO to that French Uing who brought on a
revolution the name of "Monsieur Veto , "
and President Cleveland will bo fortunate if
In history ho escapes the same descriptive
sobriquet. ( Applause. ]
The republicans arraign the administration
for having unjustly , without precedent and
for partisan reasons , disfranchised 700,000
American citizens in the territory of Dakota.
Hero lllaino sot forth at some length what
had boon the custom in the matter of the ad
mission of a territory , touched ui > on the re
sources of Dakota anil charged Vhat she was
kept out M maintain democratic suprotntc ! > .
The republicans niralgn President Clove
land's administration for breaking down the
useful | ialicy of paying off the national debt
as rapldlv as the surplus In the treasury will
allow Thep permitted the bonds of the
United States , pa > able nt par , to remain on
Interest whllo the Income of the government
was devoted to the creation ol a surplus
winch might bo used to pivjudico the finan
cial nnd Industrial system that had stcadllv
produced a condition of prospeiitv In the
country With a surplus thus designed and
enlarged , the treasurv department used it for
the first time since r.onoral Jackson broke
down the old United States bank , for the
purpose of loins , under the name of "do-
posits , " with interest , to banking institu
tions.
Hl.ilno then dwelt at length on the loaning
of over Jl.OiW.OOO to a Now York bank owned
by nu ox-ttoasurcr , Secretary Manning , and
ex-1'reasuicr Jordan , nnd chair that
nearl.v $ ( WOtX ) was thus deposited m Cov-
inglon , Ky. , banks to nld Speaker Carlisle in
his canvass for ro-olection Ho declared
that If Louis Napoleon , in the days of his
most absolute power , had done such a thing ,
the sticets of Paris would have been barri
caded mid ievolution Inaugurated , and that
if Queen Victoria should do it the ministry
would inquire as to the question of her
sanitv He continued
Hut on n larger scale , and as between com-
inanities rather than individuals , look at
what the sei retnrj has done. Ho has placed
m tlio state of Now Yoik , In the banks of his
own selection , nearlv f I'l.OOO.OOO of treasury
funds , in this great western body of states ,
comprising Illinois , Michigan. Wisconsin ,
Minnesota , Iowa , Kansas nnd Ncbraka , with
double the population of New York , nnd in
special need of ready money nt this time tote
to move crops forward to markets , the sec
retary has given but little over $ .1.UOO , < XW ,
the rule of the sectot.iry apparently being
th.it to a state of political importance to the
administration glii.iKX ) , (0) ( ) are given , and to
the HCVCII states with double the population ,
that uro hopelessly republican , considerably
less than that amount. Such political gamb
ling and personal sporting with the funds
of the common treasury of the people of the
United States has novcr been urcamcd of in
this country.
Lastly , the republicans arraign the presi
dent for ills deliberate attempt to destroy
the protective sjstctn of the country by
usmg against it as arguments its tendency to
produce a suipius in the tioasury , when not
one dollar of the surplus would bo there if
the money had been lawfully expended in re
ducing thu public debt , instead of being
loaned out to pet banks for tUu bouclit of
political faxoiitcs.
Drummers' I > : \y at liullnnnpntis.
Ivnnvw > rn , Oct 'JO It was "Drum
mers' day" in General Harrison's ' calendar
of engagements. It is estimated that be
tween ' . ' ,500 and Jl ) h ) commercial travelers ,
including home orgnni/alions , participated in
the day's demonstration , Large delegations
arrived during the morning from Cincin
nati , Columbus , Davtnn , Xanesville , Lafay
ette , I'oit Wayne and Klchmond , Ind. Sev
eral of these clubs hi ought line bands with
them. No largo organl/cd clubs were pres
ent from other cities , but small parties wore
in attendance from Now York , Boston , Chi-
cngo , St. Louis , Philadelphia , HulTalo ,
Cleveland , Louisville , and other cities. At 2
o'clock the visitors assembled at Tom-
linson's hall and organized for
a business mooting. They were cordially
welcomed by Maj or Donny. At u o'clock the
drummers held a parade , inarching through
the pi incipal streets and out past General
Harrison's residence. The general reviewed
the procession from his stops , and was en
thusiastically chceied. There were about
uvonty-flvo hundred marchers with ten
bands. At thu head of the column marched
"Uncle Samuel" in typical garb. Immedi
ately behind him camu two stalwart Kthio | > -
iaus loading a monster bull on whoso back
sat a drummer in costume personating a
hilarious Irishman. A blanket on
the bovine read , "John Hull rides
the democratic party ; we ride John
Hull. Thousands of people gathered
along the route to witness the parade. At
half past 4 they returned tol'omlmson's hall ,
where General Harrison addressed them.
The galleries were filled with spectators ,
among thorn several hundred ladies. The nu-
dicnce numbered nearly 3,000.
When General Harrison appeared there
was a repetition of ttio wild scouo of two
weeks ngo. wlion Iho Chicago veterans were
tecolviSd. The entire assembly nrosp , cheer
ing , and tlio air wm tittad with thousands of
waving flaps , whllfj tljb galleries were u son
of white cambric , rHio ladles vicing with the
drummers In their enthusiasm The cheer
tng continued live imnuies , when the and-
lenco became "yjatod , only to Jump up again
the next moment with renewed ? eal This was
i opcated three times. Thcro was no intro
ductory address
General Harrison said , among other things-
"My friends , 1 do not-nped to repeat what I
have said on fohnor occasions , that I very
hlghb value the respect and confidence
of the commercial travclets of the
United StattM'hb should be able ,
bettor than you , ) tt > know the com
mercial and business needs of our loitntri I
You , whoso hand is every day upon the busi
ness pulse of the people , jou , who travel the
country up nnd dowJi upon all the swift high-
waj s of commerce , and who nro brought in
contact with the business men of the country
not only in our great centers of
commerce , but In nil the hamlets
of the land I bollevo I may
say for you that as n result
of his personal knowledge of your business
needs you have concluded that the policy for
Americans is the policy of n protective tariff
There are doubtless here many representa
tives of the great Amei lean manufacturing
establishments ; and who should know better
than tho\ the prostrating effects upon the
Industries they represent of this policj of
free trade. Who should know better than
you that If the discriminating duties now
levied , which enublo our American manu-
fnctmcrs to maintain a fair competition with
the manufacturers of other countries , nnd at
the same time to p ly a scale of living wages
to the men and women who woi It for thorn , is
once broken down that American competition
with foreign production becomes impossible
except by a reduction of the scale of Amer
ican wages to the level of the wages paid
abroad. Certainly . \ou don't need to lie told
that that shop or mill which lias the
smallest pay roll in proportion to
its production will take the mar
ket. Certainly vou don't need to bo
told that the wages now onjoved by our
American workmen are greatly larger and
tin1 comforts they enjoy gicatly more than
these enjojed by the working population of
any other land. Certainly you don't need to
bo told that if the American government , in
stead of patronising homo industiios buys its
blankets for public service in Kngland , that
this is Just that much less work for Amer
icans to do. This Is to mo the beginning and
the end of the tarill question.
" .Since I was old enough to have oninions ,
or to utter them , I have hold to the docti ine
that the tiuo American policiasthnt which
should maintain not onlj a living rate
of wages but one with a margin for the sav
ings and comforts of our working men. Two
propositions that now stare our noticing people
plo and our whole country in the face ate
these : Competition with foieign countries ,
without adequate discriminating and flavor
ing duties , moans lower wages to our work
ing people. Progressive free tiado means
less wink In America. Let our democratic
friends fairlj meet these two indisputable
conclusions How do they do ill Hv en-
ilenvoiing to pervert and 101011 * tlio minds of
our working people by utterly false and scan
dalous campaign stories.
"Lot mo say in conclusion that I believe that
the managers of the democratic campaign
greatly underestimate the intelligence and
decency and love of fair play which prevails
among the people. "
The general shook hands with many of the
visiting drummers. A nresont from the
Lafayette club , a beautiful floral vase of cut
( loweis , stood on the table Uesido the geneial
as ho spoke , and was carried home by his
daughter , Mrs. McKee.
General Harriso'n was the recepicnt to day
of a gold headed cane sent by the emploj es

The final proceedings of the first session of
the Fiftieth congress were as tame as they
possibly could bo. When the house juot nt
11 o'clock there were scarcely a dozen nom
bcis in their seats and the galleries were as
thin as they wore ever at any time during
the session. It was not until half past 13
that there was any appreciable increase in
the number of visitors. At that time the
membership on the floor had been augmented
by the arrival of eight or ten of the tardy
members still In the city , and the gillenc *
woie pretty well Illled with n throng of people
ple , the majority of w horn wet o evidently non
residents of the city , who were attracted by
the hope that there would be some interest
in the last moments of the session. In this
thcv were disappointed. Theie were recesses
from tiuio to time until seven minutes of 1 ,
when Mr Hvan of Kansas moved that the
thanks of the house Do extended to the
speaker for his uniform courtesy and ability
and the lesolution was , of course , adopted
unanlmoush Mr Carlisle then took the
chair amid some applause nnd , after receiv
ing the llnal messiges from the president an
nouncing the nppro\al of a number of bills ,
declared the house adjourned. Then came a
scone which was not on the programme.
One of the local icpoiters in the press pal-
leiy slatted in a good baritone voice

1'arly in the seventies the sultan sent a

agent is Stephen P. Mar/in. After complet
ing the negotiations ho returned to Constantinople

nnd sentenced him to death. The sentence

The contents and wlieienbiiuts of the most

speculation among some coteries of republi

General Giant , feeling that ho could not be
renomlnatcd. wrote n letter authori/lng the
withdrawal of his n.imo as a candidate. That
letter was entrusted into the hands of John
