THE FARMERS PICNIC.
Speeches, Music and Plenty of
Good Things tO Eat.

The Farmers Alliance picnic held al
Public Landing last Wednesday was a
very large affair. About seven hundred
people were in attendance Music was
furnished by the Snow Hill Cornct Band.
Everything passed off smoothly until II
Peoples Party orator attempted 10 infuse
politics into the meeting, which aroused
the ire of the farmers and came near re.
suting disastrou,ly 10 the Peoples Party
advocate The speakers selected To adj
dress the farmers were Prof Thos H.
Spence, Doctor Sylvester X Marshall, T..
j. {. Parsons and Fred j. WoOlley
Mr.. Charles :. Capper, the popular
President of the Snow Hill Alliance,
presided and introduced the above named
gentlemen TO The audience The speakers
having concluded, Mr.. Capper called for
another tune from the band Just as the
music ceased, medium built, light haired
individual unknown To the Worcester
people, leaped upon the platform and be
gan n TRADE Of abuse against President
Harrison, Grover Cleveland aud the Dem
ocratic and Republican parties, after
which he denounced the speakers and
made some very personal allusions to
them saying that Prof Spence was hog
with white collar on. The band played
and drew most Of his audience away, but
he persisted in his haranguc. The band
then went up and surrounded him in such
an effective manner that he was blown off
the stump. Ii was all the chairman of
the committee on arrange ments could do
To keep some of the muscular Alliance
men from throwing the man into the bay.
The men begged not TO be interfered with
in the action they were about to take but
DIR. Marshall persuaded them to let him
alone, and the DIR. took the platform and
he and Prof. Spence made il so warm for
the Peoples Party advocate that he was
glad TO get away from Public Landing in
double quick order.
