HARR1soN's TERRIBLE RECORD.

The leaders of organized labor have
succeeded in unearthing enough H.
stances of where the Republican pres
idential nominee openly declared him
self opposed to the interests of labor
ingmen to deprive him of their support
next November. They know that he is
unsound on the Chinese question, and
that he opposed organized labor in In
diana. The Union printers do not adj
miro him On accountof his connection
with John G. New, whom they assert is
an enemy Of the craft because he en-
ploys non-union men, or. as printers
call them, traits, on his paper in lndi-
ana, and the Typographical unions may
be expected to be heard from with no
uncertain sound.
j The nomination Of Harrison has also
largely a!ienated those Irlshmen who
Akood by Elaine last election. Among
Vie Knownothings some years ago there
was no one more bitterly offensive to
Irishmen than Benjamin Harrison.
Choice extracts from his speeches of
those days are being reproduced. He
said the Irish had no right to como to-
the United States. and the sooner they
got out the better. All these things
point to an overwhe Ginning defeat Of the
Republican party.

In an interview the other day, Mr..
Parnell said he believed that the Home
Rule movement would result In the es-
tablishment of an imperial Parliament,
in which England, Scotland, Ireland,
Wales and the colonies would be repre-
sented. Each country would have a
separate legislature to manage it's local
affairs. The imperial Parliament, he
thought, would supplant the house Of
lords. Mr.. Parnell also thought the
