The celebration services began Sunday
afternoon when a union centennial service
was held at the old First church at Ben
nington Centre, which was attended by
Gov Page and staff and many prominent
military visitors from abroad. This church
was built in the last century and was used
during the days of the Revolution. The
interior of this ancient meeting house was
appropriately decorated for the centennial
services. The galleries were decked with
the flags of all nations and patriotic EN-
blems. Above the pulpit hung a large and
beautiful silk flag which was for many years
owned by Hon. Thos. Chittenden, govern
or of Vermont from 1777 to 1896. The
pulpit was decorated with the Continental
flag of 1915 and the first state flag adopted
by Vermont. These two flags are the
property of the Vermont Society of the
Sons of the American Revolution, and
were loaned by the society for the occasion.
The old Continental flag was used by Wash
ington early in the Revolutionary war At
this service the pastor, Rev. NJ. l.. Sever
ance, preached the centennial sermon from
the text BLESSED is the nation whose God
is the Lord and the people whom He hath
chosen for His own Inheritance" The

More Fruits of the Mckinley Bill.
From the Boston Journal


The Democratic chatter about the myth
ical' nature of the American tin plate in
dustry is rapidly subsiding. 1t cannot
stand up before such hard facts as, for in
stance, the announcement which comes
from Pittsburg that r. c. jenkins, one of
the largest tin plate manufacturers of
South Wales, is about to transfer his works
to America. Mr.. jenkins makes this state
ment himself in a letter to Pittsburg
merchant. He has come to the conclusion
that Democratic victory and the repeal of
the Mckinley tariff are events that are al
together too improbable to warrant his re-
factories, with capacity of 1900 boxes of
tin plate day. The bulk of this great
plant will be in America within few
months. He has been offered and has ac-
cepted % acres of land in Joliet, ILL.,, and
there his new mills will be established.
He intimates that William Williams. the
famous Welsh tin plate king, may follow
him. Mr.. Jenkins will bring a certain
number of skilled Welsh wOrlmen to this
country with him, and they will no doubt
be desirable acquisition, but if his bust
ness develops as he anticipates, it will fur
nish employment to a great many Ameri-
cans. The buildings will have to be built and
the machinery set up by our own m5chan-
les, and the Welsh immigrants will live in
American houses, purchase American man
ufactured goods and buy their food sup
plies of American farmers. That is what
it means to have our tin plate manufacture
ed IN America instead of Europe
