GLADsToNE's VICTORY,
The Commoner Will Consider
Important Measures,

LONDON, Sept. Ain the house of
commons tonight Mr.. Gladstone moved
a resolution to give the government the
whole time Of the house for the remain
der of the session, to suspend the IL
O'Clock rule and to appoint Saturday
sittings. In making the motion the
prime minister announced that the
government only hoped 10 be able to
deal with employers liability and parish
council bills at the autumn session.
He said he would not deny that the
solution was stringent one, but the
cause was urgent necessity. The au-
tumn session, he said. would be eXem-
plified in the suspension of the II
O'Clock rule. MIR. Balfour protested
that an autumn session would overbur-
den the legislative machine. He hoped
the resolution would be modified so as to
limit the Saturday sittings to the time
devoted to the supply bill. Sir Charles
Dixie expressed strong approval of the
governments policy. Mr.. Cham berlain
warned the government that its opp0-
nents would be compelled to follow its
example in the future.
Sir William Vernon Harcourt, chan
cell0r of the eXchequer. announced that
it was not the intention of the govern
ment to use the Saturday Sittings as an
ordinary instrument for the transaction
of business.
Mr.. Sexton promised the government
the utmost assistance of his party for
the carrying out of the autumn pro-
gramme.
Mr.. Gladstone's resolution was
passed.

LARoR,s DEMONSTRATIONS.

Labor Day in St. Paul was all that
could have been desired, Clear skies
and bright sunshine ushered in the
dawn, while a delightful breeze tenn
percd the atmosphere. Twas an idea!
Minnesota day in early autumn-a day
that lnvigorated the physical faculties
While gently stimulating the intellect
ual. Each respiration was draugnt of
nectar favored with stimulating ozone,
and the buOyant steps of the toilers.
released from their tasks for day,
showed the inspiration of the weather
and the day. For it was a great day
Tor the bone and sinew of the metrOp-
oils, aud they made the most Of it.
The procession was large and every
way efeditable. The men who COM
posed it bore the impress of intel
ligence, OF industrious habits, of
sobriety. OF course, they were we'll
dressed, fol no people on earth take
more laudable pride in their personal
appearance than st. PauIs mechanics.
They manifested pride-and who has
more right to be proud than the man
who earns an honest living for himself
and his kindred by the sweat of his
brow? They strobe with free and
Independent gait, for the man whose
skill makes his services indispensable
TO the welfare of the community may
well be independent. They were
gentlemanly and courteous in behavior
both in the city and at the picnic
grounds, for they were reared in habits
of politeness and do not forget that
courtesy and kindness are attributes
that belong by inheritance TO the
yeomanry of the land. A more
creditable display has never been
made than that of yesterday. There
was pride but not arrogance: there was
conscious strength without Boosting;
there was a refinement that is better
than mere pollteness: there was gayety
without boisterousness. Taken all i'll
all. the arrangements were as perfect as
it was possible to make them, and the
day was free from scenes of rudeneSS,
undue hilarity or evidences of debauch-
cry.
st. Paul feels proud of her working
classes. That pride has been intensified
by the demonstration of yesterday.
The observance throughout the c0un-
try, as our numerous and elaborate teIe-
graphic reports indicate, was general
and impressive. Labor Day has very
properly become national event. and
no day in all the year Is more worthy of
attention and consideration.
