THE WEST RIDING REFORM DEMONSTRATION.

The arrangements for the great West Riding
reform demonstration in Leeds, on Monday, the Bth
October, are programing very satisfactorily, and
now that Kr. Bright has promised to attend,
there is every mason to believe that the gathering
will be one of the most successful ever held in this

county. After the out-door proceedings on the Moor a
great public meeting will be held in the evening in the
Vinton:. Hall, at which Mr. Bright, Mr. Beales, the Rev.
Mr. Bonner, Mr. Ernest Jones, Mr. Leathern (late M.P.
for Huddersfield), Mr. Geo. Potter, and other leaders of the
reform party will be present. The general committee now
'it every evening in the Barristers' Room, Town Hall, for
the purpose of receiving reports from reform asso-
ciations, trade societies, lodges, &c., as to the
part they intend to take in the forthcoming
demonstration. Reports from delegates represent-
ing various trades state that the feeling in favour
of the movement is very enthusiastic both in Leeds and
throughout the district. The trade societies are taking up
the subject warmly, and making efforts to promote the
demonstration in every possible manner. The joiner
and carpenters are providing themselves with bands and
banners, and are endeavouring to prevail upon the
plasterers, painters, and other trades, to unite with them
on the Bth, and join the procession to the Moor in a
body. The Amalgamated Engineers' Society is also
stirring, and is expected to supply two or three thousand
man. From Huddersfield, Battey, and other towns, the
reports are cheering, preparations being in progress for
large bodies of reformers coming in from these places.
The following regulations respecting the order of proces-
sion have been issued by the general committee:
" The different bodies intending to take part in the pro-
ceedings, will begin to ensemble at 11 o'clock in the fore-
noon, near the Town-hall.
' The Leeds committee will bead the procession, and
will take up its position in Oalmly-street, facing East-
Psfsd' ]Each h procession as it arrives, mast go through Park-
square, and join the general body, in line, five abreast, up
Oxford-place, Great George-street, and Calverly•street.
" At 1 o'clock, the procession will go down East-parade,
along Infirmary-street, through Boar-lane, up Briggate and
Woodhouse-lane to the Moor.
" Marshals, bearing a distinctive badge, will be ap-
pointed to regulate the procession in accordance with the I
above plan.'
The committee of management urgently impress upon g
all societies and clubs who will join the procession, to use it
every effort for carrying out the arrangements in a sans- a
faetcsy manner. The country must be shown that working 81
men can manage these demonstrations in an orderly and
peaceable manner ; and that they are worthy of the posi-
tien in the state which they are now claiming. If the in- g
structians of the appointed officers (who will be placed at 8
different stations in the streets where the processions will 81
assemble) be strictly followed, the West Riding meeting if
will be in every respect a great success."—Lecds Mercury. r
