cupants of the Governors stand. They
were those who voted for William Henry
Harrison in 1910, and were singing the
songs of the Old Tippecanoe campaign.
The Harrison and Morton Glee Club FOL-
| lowed the veterans, and turned out in large
numbers. They went through some grace
ful maneuvers in front of the reviewing
stand. Their tall white hats and long linen
busters formed strong contrast with the
other uniformed clubs What is the mat
ter with Governor Waterman? He's all
right. you bet" was given with will.
They carried with them the beautiful
silken banner which was presented to the
club some time since by some of the Re-
publican young ladies of this city.
FOURTH DIVISION.
The fourth division was commanded by
c. S. Houghton, who was accompanied by
cavalcade of aids At its head was the
Hussar band acting as escort to the Fire
Brigade, commanded b. DR.. f. T. Tebbets.
This was one of the largest delegations in
the procession and none looked finer. They
drew an old-time engine upon which was
seated two handsome young ladies. They
were cheered every where, and their uni
form was equal to that of any, consisting of
black pantaloons, red shirts and black
glazed turbans.
Next came the Chico band acting as es-
cort to the First Time" Club of this city.
They were followed by a large club of COL
oreG Republicans, who bore aloft the motto
The Memory of Lincoln Will Ever Live"
Next came ten aids on horseback, acting
as escort TO the Fourth Ward Republican
Club, which turned cut over $50 strong,
carrying huge japanese lanterns. Several
wagons and floats followed, bearing humor-
GUS transparencies, among them:
1.-THE palmer the light, the more Free
Trade fallacies are exposed"
Protection Promotes Prosperity, Peace
and PLENTY"
Without Protection we must either
work FIR less wages or quit"
Free fra1esmen, foreign rates of wages;
Free Trade and low wages Protection and
high wages"
Look on this picture: Prosperity and
Protection; and then on this: The Blight
of Free Trade"
If the American standard of wages is to
be assailed why should the American vote
to striks the blow
A million dollars worth of goods from
England means ten million taken from our
mechanics"
The Army and Navy League came next,
headed by fife and dram corps. They
were ont in large numbers, and when they
an army yell.
One of the best Gestures in the industrial
display was that of Warehouse & Lester.
On one wagon was an immense wheel
which reyolved as the wagon rolled along,
the rim of which bore the inscription PRO
lection" Their banner was: "Grover uses
convlct-made wagons to deliver English
blankets" Grover, what's the matter
with our wagons, they're all right"
Many of the wagons, and some Of the
best features, bore no banner indicating to
whom they belonged.
All along the line of march red fire and
fireworks were burned. 1t was the largest
and most successful demonstration ever
made upon the coast outside of San Fran
cisco.
AS the column countermarched up ]
street, q fire-wagon carrying red-iight and
doing flaming business in the parade up
to that time, met with a mishap that put
a stop to its further usefulness. When be-
tween Fifth and Sixth streets, the mixture
got the better of the man who was doing
two mems duty-engineering the nag and
manipulating the cardinal compound-and
caught fire all in lump. The old horse
took notion to drive at furious rate
through the advance lines, but was halted

was allowed, from necessity, to burn out,
and the bottom of the wagon with it. At
one time il looked as if the awning above
where the wagon stood would catch fire,
but fortunately it did not. No other dam
age resulted.
AT the reviewing stand msrshal's horse
stepped from under the gentleman, who no
sooner sat in graceful pose on the street
than he was on his feet again and in hot
pursuit of his steed. The latter was soon
caught and the gallant horseman in saddle
as proud as if it did not hurt to ride after
the hard seat he had lately experienced.
On 81 street, between Eleventh and
Twelfth streets, wagon bearing a minia-
ture planning machine, and from the rail-
road shops, broke an axle and completely
collapsed, rendering it useless for the rest
of the long journey.
On K street a vehicle, with representa-
ton of box car in course of construction,
took tumble and had to be removed as
totally disabled. 1t was the result of CON-
ing in contact with the street car tracks.
