ohildrens Day at Wesley Sab
bath School,

On Sunday, August 10th, Wesley
Union Church was crowded to its
utmost capacity to witness the exer-
cises presented by the Sunday School,
which were of an interesting charac
ter, they were the last but not the
least in celebrating Childrens' Day.
The scene presented to those who
were fortunate to be present was
grand, beautiful and brilliant. Even
the little birds which were hung 10
all parts of the church warbeled
forth their sweet songs in praise OF
the beautiful picture. The beautiful
plants, shrubery and flowers which
adorned the church were grand in the
extreme, and the ladies who sotaste-
fully arranged them deserve much
praise. The programme presented
was a good one, and seemed TO be
appreciated by all present.

TARIFF TRICKERY AMI
WORKINGMEN.
AMI

In conversation at the Palmer
House, Chicago, Mr.. Wattersou said:
"The plank means nothing more nor
less than a tariff for revenue only
We inserted the word Exclusively
because it sounded better Butter
gave the thing away, though. He
was the only man there who saw
through it, Mr.. Watters0n is mis-
taken. The millions Of workingmen
saw instantly that revenue shall be
raised exclusively for public purposes
meant ga tariff for revenue only;" no
more and no less. Hence these
uprisings of working people for Mr..
Blaine.
The Hon. Samuel Wallingford, the
leading Greenback-labor advocate in
Southern Indiana, hits the nail on the
head. He says; "The workingmen
asked the Republicans for protection
and they put such a plank in their
platform. They ask the Democratic
party only for the same thing, and
what did they do? Instead of taking
the declarations that their Repre-
sentative, Butler, presented, they
shouted aud Kissed him down. | tell
you the laboring men will elect
Blaine, and nothing can defeat him.
Blaine has always been popular with
them. They take no stock in the
slander that the press keeps publish
ing. This Eastern Independent
movement is going to aid the Repub
lican ticket. They are regarded by
laboring men as dangerous to
American industries The same
opinion prevails in this region also.
If anybody supposes that the working
people of this country do not under =
stand the tariff question or care about
it, let him listen attentively month
or two.
In its issue of March IA, 1888,
Puck had a full page cartoon, en-
titled "The new member of Mon
opoly Lodge has t1ken his 'First
Degree" In this cartoon Mr.. Cleve-
land was represented with a cable
tow around his neck and a FOOLS cap
with the inscription, "5c. Veto,' on
his head. Now it is beslobering this
same Mr.. Cleveland with all the
polychromatic praise at its command.
"What fools these mortaIs be-"
AS soon as the Democrats discoV-
cred that the Blaine aggressive cam,
paign was loaded they began to shout,
"Call off your dogs!'

DEMOCRATIC ROW.
Discussions That VIII Give LuzernC to the
ReDubIicaus

RepuDllcaDS.
WMKEs-BARRE, Pa, Aug. Is. The
Democrats Of the Third Legislative dis
trict, this county, are in a terribly de-
moralized state, which threatens TO end
in the defeat of the Democratic candi-
date for Senator, to succeed Coke, and
the loss Of Representative in the lower
house. About month ago Representa-
tive Hines, who is a candidate for Sera-
tor, sprung trap upon his opponent for
the place, Phil. Gallery, by having the
chairman of the District Committee issue
call for delegate election and con
vention to select Senatorial conferees.
In the meantime Hines notified all his
friends of the approaching election. but
the chairman in his call only gave forty
eight hours notice. The result was that
Gallery was unable to get his friends to
the polls, and Hines secured the confer
ees. Gallery claimed fraud, and laid his
grievances before the district committee.
The committee yesterday authorized a
new call for delegate elections and con-
vention. but Hines and Gallery refuse to
recognize the call, thinking bird in
hand worth two in the bush. The result
will now be two sets of conferees apply
ing for admission to the Senatorial con
ference and two candidates for the AS.
sembly. The party is hopelessly divided
on the Presidency, many Democrats sig
nifying their intention to vote for Blaine.

A BIT OF HISTORY.
Extract from q Speech Delivered
bylHon. j. r. Lynch at Elmira
N. Y. August 18th.

Let me give you little history.
The civil rights bill came to the house
of which | vast hen a member. When
it was reported it was at a critical
time-near the close of the last
session of the Forty.third congress
We knew if the bill failed would it
never be passed thereafter, as the
next would be a democratic congress
Many good republicans had doubts
about the constitutionality of certain
clauses. You all know that the
speaker of the house has a good deal
of power If friendly to a measure
it counts for a great deal. James G.
Blaine was then speaker l didn't
know how he stood. / was appre-
hensive, but one afternoon received
polite note inviting me to a private
conference in the speakers room.
That conference satisfied me that Mr..
Blaine, while he would take no undue
advantage of the opponents of the
bill, was friendly to its passage, /
became convinced thatfthere was no
stronger friend than James G. Blaine.
Every man who has known him will
not hesitate to testify that no man
has purer character or stands higher
in their estimation than James G.
Blaine, and the passage of that bill
was due more to James G. Blaine
than to any one man.

Along the line everywhere uraely was
received with tremendous enthusiasm.
At clock the procession reached the
grand stand. The carriage containing
Lieutenant Greely was driven to the
stand, and as he stepped to the platform
he was given a grand reception from the
throng. The band then played 'Home

Lieutenant Greedy as follows:
In behalf of the citizens of your native
city | welcome you home. From our
hearts we rejoice at your safety and re-
turn. The honor you have brought to
us, as we'll as the fame you have achieved
for yourself, can never fade. So long as
the world shall exist so long will endure
the name of Lieutenant A. w. Greedy, of
Newburyport Again we welcome you.
Lieutenant Greedy then arose and for
several minutes the applause continued.
After it had subsidized he said:
1t is not possible for me to put in words
an expression of what now feel at such
a reception as this. On all previous oc-
casiOns when | nave returned here from
my experience, first as a private in the
war and then as an officer in the war and
as an officer in the regular service, have
always experienced the most kindly treat
ment from this, my native city.
On my late return to civilization and
my country the first part of the coast to
meet my eye was NewburypOrt its hills,
its spires and its houses. In my passage
to and fro through the streets of the city
to-day words fail to express my feelings
or utter my thanks to you all. As | tel
egraphed from st. Johns, had / consulted
my own feelings, I should have preferred
a more quiet OCCASION but since you
would have it like this, there is nothing
Tor me to do but once more to thank you.

JOACHIM ARD TIE BARBER.

Joachim, the celebrated violin player,
tells q good story about himself. He has
a heavy head OF hair, except one spot,
which ne can easily hide by not cutting
off n particular lock. One day in London
he went to the barber's to have his hair
trimmed. The barber wished to take
this lock off, but Joachim insisted On
its remaining. whereupon the barber ex-
claimed: 'Iet me cut it off; itmakes you
look like one of those old Dutch fiddlers. y
The barber had, of course, no idea whom
he was shearing.
