 Address by Henry c. Baldwin. e.. After the parade the larger organiza- tions and the public in general em- parked in the cars of the Winchester avenue system and proceeded to Savin Rock, where, during the afternoon, ,ath- letic games were held, and other at- fractions, the principal event being the address by Henry c. Baldwin of Nau- gatuck, the populist candidate for con- gress, his topic being "The History of Labor Days" The address was forci- ble, and more than usually interesting, and was listened to with wrapt atten- tion by quite large audience. Fully 15,OOO were present at the Rock during the celebration, and everybody appear ed to be enjoying themselves. Many people were busy in the dancing pavil- ions, others were in other parts of the grove, hence they did not hear MT. Baldwin's words. Among other things MT. Baldwin yaid: ..,.-.r r-e "Prior to the destruction of the Ro- man civilization the ruling classes, which were those who gained wealth without producing it, granted to the plebeian multitude fete days to allay the growing discontent. Our ruling class, which grows rich and arrogant, by controlling the agencies of produc- tion and commerce, have discovered that there is a broad, growing and deep discontent on the part of the producing millions, who are robbed under the forms of law, and to allay this they have voted national holiday to be known as Labor day, which is to be set apart for the glorification of labor.

The right of man to labor and pro-. duce carries with it the right of access to the earth, the only raw material. It is conceded that there are millions of willing workmen under the stars and stripes denied access to the fields of pro- duction because of the monopoly of the earth and of the instrument of ex- 
 "These two monopolies are the direct results of statute laws at the dictation of a favored and arrogant class, in plain defiance of well recognized rights. On March 4, 1894, Washington was in- vaded by an army which came in palace cars, surrounded with every luxury, of 1000 bankers, brokers and Wall street business men, wearing and a Tammany badge. They were shown around the grounds and over the sacred shrubbery" with out a word of protest. The massive doors of fha anStoI avu,,np pr oman +n ro ceive them, with John Y. McKane lead Ing the hosts, and statesmen, some of l them from Connecticut, fell on the necks of the army as joyfuIly as did Jacob on the neck of Joseph.
