one participated III Dy extremely large
numbers in the line of procession, it was
extremely numerous" in its enthusiasm
and Sacramento, with the fire works and
red lights which lined the streets, it NAV
very properly be said that the victorious
boys" literally painted the town red
The occasion was free from anything in the
| least offensive to the defeated side of the
! Presidential contest, but was marked with
a degree of jollification and noise that
would discount Bedlam, and convince the
most skeptical that the Republicans of Sac
ramento bad received the full returns from
| the election, appreciated their meaning and
the standing in the foreground it gave the
party which had achieved the triumph.
The procession formed on ] and Fourth
streets soon after o'clock, and consisted
of the local Republican clubs and a large
| number of Ununiformed members of the
party, most of whom carried torches, and
others simply bearing flags which were
held aloft in place of the regular campaign
lighted oil can. The streets were lined
with people to witness the parade, and
everybody seemed to partake of the enthu-
siasm and good feeling of the occasion.
Many fthe business houses were decorated
off fireworks from sidewalks and balconies
was quite general and almost constant
along the entire line of march, while the
crowd OF lookers-on seemed to vie with the
marching column as to which could max ke
the greatest din and turned loose confusion
NOISE was evidently the chief object, and
the object was successfully Accomplished.
Tin horns and various other instruments
of music and torture abounded in the
procession almost unanimously.
The procession marched up J street,
headed by Grand Marshal G. II. Hubbard
and large number Of mounted aides.
They were followed by the First Artillery
Band in its fuil numbers, and which fur
nished music, in selection and spirit spe-
cially adapted to the hour
Next came ne Glee Club, $50 strong and
in full uniform. They carried sranspa-
rency: What the Matter with Califor-
marshes All Rightn and, Joseph
MISUNDERSTANDING Best Friend"
Then followed another detachment of
mounted aids, and a wagon burning red
fire.
Next followed the Brighton club, fifty
eight strong, all carrying red-lights, blow
Ing horns and bearing transparency "As
Brighton Goes, so Goes not Only the State,
but the Nation. 'Rah for Harrison !''
A large detachment of ununiformed Re-
publicans next followed, two hundred or
more in number.
Following this was about fifty musicians
with every conceivable instrument, fol-
lowed by an exceptionally fine drum
corps After these came the Resolutes,
one of Sacramento's banner Republican
corps, wearing their fine uniforms, which
are familiar to the public, having been IL
lustrated in the San Francisco Examiner
nd Ia, 4 -
hlbition in the Examiner window in San
Francisco. They made fine showing and
We're admired by all who witnessed the
demonstration. They all carried torches
and were supplied with fish horns and
row-fddles. They turned out over 200
strong and carried a banner I'VE rejoice
as we voted, for Harrison and Protection -
Next came the Hussar Band with twenty
musicians, leading the Army and Navy
League under the marshalshlp of j. s. Nc
Mahon. Itey turned out about 200 strong,
and made IS much noise as any of the d.
visions in line. Their transparency was:
Cleveland vetoed our pensions. We
vetoed him."
Following the Boys in Blue came more
mounted noisy aids. They carried torches,
burned Roman candles and blew fish horns.
Among their transparencies was one which
read, 1862 Won't Do"
Perhaps the club of the largest number
was the Fire Brigade, which made fine
appearance, and in their iollifca-
ton antics attracted much attention
Their uniforms, under the red
| lights, were very conspicuous and effective
for parade purposes. Following the Fire
Brigade was drum corps of boys which
fully kept up the Young America part of
the procession. To their music marched
the Colored Republican Club in large num-
5ers. They carried transparency reading
We will never go back on Republican
principles. 'Rah for West Virginia, the
Solid South is broken"
The next II line was James Senatz's fish
ing party. The captain was made up TO
represent Grover when he was fishing in
the Adirondacks and could not go TO the

balance of his party were most excellent

do" Then came members in buggies, and

caught by knots OF red, white and blue;

was presented to the Club by the wife of its
marshal. Following the buggies came the
Clubs representation of log cabin under
charge of n. A. Mccoy, a radical and de-
voted Hoosier, but whose team would balk
occasionally and let the cabin section fall
out of place. However, it finally got its
place aud brought up all right on the coun-

upon the float with the cabin. On one
