the bands to play, end an excellent pre-
gramme OF music Was rendered ia the pes

square. The cessation of the rain was only
OF short duration, hut The musicians MALL

and unjust burdens imposed upon the farm
ers By the new tariff bill, completely refGtes
the republican assertion that protection ber-

iority of the farmers of New Jersey, Della
ware and Connecticut, and large proportions
otthose of New York, Indiana and Ohio are
democrats, though they live In the shadow
of ch,mueys of factories, and by asking If
protection Gives them home market why
should they not be in favor of it? They
have tried projection, and know by sad ex-
perience that under it they have grown
poorer, While the owners of the factories have
