NEW YORK Sept. 2.-Labor day here was
ushered In by bright sunshine. From esrly
morning the streets were crowded by
sturdy sons o. toll. 1t was noticed how
ever that large numbers OF working girls
trudged along as usual with their lunch
In hand. In the majority OF cases II was
found they worked In cigar factories and
other concerns the owners o. which had no
respect for Labor Day. On the east side
OF the town 1t was also noticeable that
many factories blew their seven o'clock
whistles.
The procession began to move from
Washington parade ground at 10 30 O'Clock.
There was an immense crowd present and
as the paraders and bands moved past they
we've cheered to tha echo. All along the
line OF march the proces sionlsts were made
the recipients of salvoes OF cheers. The
parade vas not nearly as large as last year.
IN PHILADELPHIA.

JoHSsrowN, Pa, Aug. 29.-The dry

detrimental to the health of the people

deposit of any offal or garbage in any
public place. There are 25 patients in
the Red Gross Hospital suffering from
typhoid fever, and number OF others
sick with complication of ailments.
The water in the reservoirs is pure, or

The democratic papers are making a
great blow about Harrison being a
minority" president-elect, and boast
of Cleveland's popularity, as shown
by the fact that he received more
votes than Harrison. An analysis OF
the official vote shows that in the
northern and middle, or border states,
the republicans gained over the vote
of 1884, and that the democratic gain
was in the states of the south where
there was no pretense of free and
fair ballot. In the northern states the
official returns show gain of l6. 1862
over the democrats from the vote OF
1884 and in the middle or border states
"a democratic loss of 1874 The dem
ocratic gains were wholly in South
Carolina, Florida, Georgia, Alabama.
Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas and
was obtained by methods disgraceful
to a civilized country. -Cheboygan
