THE PRESIDENTIAL VISIT Fully

THE PRESIDENTIAL VISIT Fully
two thousand persons assembled at
the c. & N. w. Ry. depot last Thurs
day afternoon to welcome President
Hayes to our city. The presidential
party was nearly an hour behind
time, but the crowd waited with con-
siderable good nature while the Pres
ldent tickled the ears of the natives
at Racine Junction. On his arrival
he was greeted with salute of TWEEN
ty-one guns from Capt. Bridgeman's
battery, three rousing cheers from the
multitude and Hail to the Chief, from
the [. of Ell. Band. A temporary
platform had been erected under q
triumphal arch of flowers and ever
green's, on which the President dis.
played his poltly figure to the people
and from which he addressed to them
a few Well-timed and sensible remarks
on the present financial difficulties of
the country, the currency, sc. On
the conclusion of his address he in
dulged for few moments in the
great American practice Of hand
shaking, and not a few awaited them
selves of the opportunity, to grasp tie
hand of q real live President. The
train then drew out amid salvos of
artillery and the plaudits of the peo-
pie, and the President journeyed on
to pass through the same ordeal at
Waukegan. Altogether the occasion
was pleasant one and striking
tribute Of respect from the citizens of
Kenosha to the Chief Magistrate of
the Nation.
