How sweetly the republicans are sing
ing the praises of reciprocity just now.
Only couple of years ago such thing
was monstrous. Blaine was then swing
ging around the circle, and at every stop
ping place he would commence anew
about the great advantages that were
wrapped up in protection. Whenever
he saw newly painted house or fence
he pointed TO it with exultation and
argued that it was the result of making
people pay more taxes than they
were willing or able to do. But the Maine
statesman and confreres can keep up the
delusion no longer. They were paid well
for their work, and they relax their grip
with reluctance. And the reason they
give for change of heart is amusing.
1t is not more amusing though than the
language they employ. The Union, of
this city, this morning. thought it well to
copy from the Minneapolis journal what
II had to say about the change from the
cast-iron rules of protection to the prln-
ciples of freer trade. Such twistings
and contortions of language it is hard to
follow without smile. Talleyrand said
that language was given man to con
zeal his thoughts The republicans are
now busily employed in mastering the
/ ipeculiarities of that assertion.

Two reasons why "SahGa" should

methods of conducting campaigns he has
decided to take that part of the work on
his own shoulders to large extent; and
the other is that since his political twin
has been fired out of the district he him
self has lost all courage to mount the

" that the force of good sense has hap
pened to strike "Sahla."

made an extended speech yesterday in the
senate on the tariff question, in the course
of which he gave statistics in REPUTATION
of the statements made by Democr attic

of the farming class, and showed that in

Plat said that Paddock's statement in
that respect was an unanswerable argu-
ment in favor of the protective policy.
Carlisle Quotes S. s. Cox.
Carlisle said that Platt's argument at
tributing the prosperity of Nebraska to
to the high protective tariff was a repeti-
tion of the old argument which had been
once Willingly illustrated in the house of
representatives by S. S Cox. "There are
no snakes in Ireland" Cox said, "and Ire.
land has free trade; therefore there can be
| no snakes in any country that has free
trade" There was just as much connec-

LABOR DAY DEMONSTRATIONS.

Large Turn-Outs of workmen All Over
the United States.
CHICAGO, Sept. 2.-Labor's annual holt
day was duly observed in this city. The
number OF men in the parade is variously
estimated at from q, 600 to 10000 and the
long line of participators marched through
the principals streets, practically suspend
ing business for two or three hours Many
of the industrial establishments were idle
and those that were running were in many
instances doing so with small forces.
There were forty or fifty bands in the line
and the banners bore devices appropriate
to the day, such as united we stand, di-
vided we lose money" well make the
box to bury the scabs," ave are union
men and cary union colors."
The Hosts of Drawn.
Early In the morning the different
trades began to assemble at their rendez-
vous, and by the appointed time were
ready for the word to march and when it
came the Plasterers union, in white caps
and overcoats; the Steel men carrying the
shovel, the hammer, or other implements
of their trade; the Culinary Alliance
memb ers, looking we'll fed and hearty;
the Hold Carriers with their hods left at
home; the typos looking fat and wearing
expensive bouquets; the Masons and
Bticklayers with their trowels; Steamfit-
tiers without any steam, but each carrying
a piece of pipe; Plumbers with no special
device; Carpenters with the plane, chisel
and hammer, and a determination to
strike; Blacksmiths, ler-Makers Horse

knights of Labor by Themselves.
The knights of Labor did not join this
big procession. They flocked by them
selves and had parade of their own in
which from 8, 900 to 5, 900 participated The
mattress makers wore white gloves and
varied colored caps. The others In this
parade made no effort at uniforming, and
wore nothing in the way of such except
badges OF the digerent lodges and button
hole bouquets. A feature of the parade
was the appearance in a carriage of two
colored women, representing a colored
woman's lodge on the south side
Picnics After tho Parade.
The Trades assembly procession ended
at Ogden's grove where the day was spent
in listening to speeches by Mayor Cregier,
Frank Lawler, and others, and in various
sports. The printers picniced by them
selves at Columbia par where base ball
and other sports were INDUCED In, and the
knights of Labor went to Willow Springs,
where they passed the day in speechmak-
ing and general enjoyment. The whole
affair passed off with creditable order.

SOME republicans say they are protec-
tionists, but believe in common sense.
The common sense of the whole matter
is personal interest. Each section and
each class of people who are manufac-
turers or otherwise want protection and
free trade so adjusted as to meet the re-
quirements of each individual pocket
book. There is nothing national in the
whole scheme Of protection except ma
tional disaster.

trampled under foot yesterdai In Allie
gheny by Jr o. q. A. NJ men. 1t was car
ried by the bakers contingent 10 the labor
parade. At Arch street and North avenue
one aide was prevailed upon by some in
fiuential members of the Jr. o. U. A. M. to
order the obnoxious flag hau ed down.
The bearer refused, and raised The banner
higher and unfurled it to the winds. The
aide rode off, and the spectators began to
jeer. There were a large number of Junior
Order men around, and they were partic-
ularly incensed. They called back the aide
and insisted that the German lig be re-
moved The officer, thus urged, rode into
the ranks and took hold of the banner.
A Policeman Takes Hand.
He tried to take it away from the man
who carried 1t, but the men in the ranks
quickly surrounded the aide, and essayed
to beat him off. Policeman Diebold, of
the Allegheny force. dashed into the
thick of the fight and beat the horse and
rider with his mace. For time it
seemed that the champions of the flag
would win. Therefore the Jr. o. U. A.
NJ men, who had encouraged tie aide to
remove the flag, took part. Canes and
fists were used, resulting in black eyes
and torn clothes. Policeman Diebold was
roughly handled. Despite the efforts OF
the bakers and the policeman the flag
came down.
Victory for the Junior Order.
The Junior Order men secured the ban
ner and in about a minute all semblance
to country's emblem was gone. The
silk was torn to shreds and the IL en- tram
pied them under foot. Having won the
victory they, shouted America for
Americans" THE stars and stripes the
only banner on our streets" and other
patriotic sentiments. They then retired
and the bakers closed up their ranks and
proceeded on their way but they were an
