HON. N. D. SHERRY RATIFIED
4 BIG DENOMINATION GIVEN BY
 NEW HAVEN REPUBLICASs.


 Protection to American Labor-speech-
 as by Other Republicans.
 There was a rousing demonstration last evening by the republicans of this city to ratify the nomination of the Hon. N. D. sperry for congress from this district. It was nominally dem- onstration of the Young Mems Re- publican club, but judging from the crowds of people that participated in It, 1t would seem that the larger part of the voters of the city had turned out to pay honor to the republican nominee.
 The parade formed in front of the Young Mems Republican club on Grown street at half-past seven and started soon after eight o'clock. It was headed by the Second company Governors Foot Guard band and the Blues drum corps. The parade proceeded down Crown street to Church, to Chapel, to Orange. and thence to MT. Sperry's residence on the corner of Orange and Bradley streets. Red fire, Roman can dies and sky rockets brilliantly illumi- mated the line of march. A number of rifiemen from Winchester's rode on
 Smedley's tally-ho and as the line marched along fired volley after volley at all opponents of MT. Sperry.
 When the column had arrived at its destination President Frederick B.. Farnsworth of the Young Mems Repub- nl,,h ha a pa from the porch of MT. Sperry's resi- dence. He said that so far as an in- troduction was concerned the services of any one would be superfluous. MT. Sperry was known to everyone. He has the knowledge and ability to repre- sent the people of Connecticut and to know what they want.
 After President Farnsworht's brief
 introductory address MT. Sperry bowed
 to the crowd and was heartily cheered. He then spoke in the main as follows: MT. President, fellow-citizens and neighhors, one and all thank you for this splendid ovation and for the
 beautiful serenade. I am not vain enough to believe that this is for me personally, but do believe it is for the principles which we all represent. If I did not thank you one and all for this should be at fault. And if did
 not thank you for the ladies who are
 present with Mrs. Sperry I certainly
 had gone. Naughterl
 Now, gentlemen, once heard of q
 good old New England deacon who bought 8 new carriage. He wanted tc try his newapurchase and so harnessed up and went to general training Well, the boys treated him pretty good
 all day, so that he had not proceeded very far on his way home before he | tumbled out on the ground. When l people came to assist him they asked l him what the matter was. We'll said
 he, I've had a pretty good time, but
 never ride in that carriage again. I'll
 buy new one.' leave the application
 to you. (Volley from the tally-ho) | "I understand that a large petition l signed by workingmen was presented to
 me the other day, but did not expect l that the next time I saw them they l would be firing off Winchester rifles 1 Drums and rifles) "On the 27th of last month banquet was given in London in honor of MT. Wilson. On that occasion he said | My friends, we have made a tariff
 bill which will greatly assist you in l exporting your goods to America Now does this mean that you, the pro- 1 ducers of America, will have to manu- l fracture your goods to compete with those of the foreign market, so that you will have to make them as cheap here as they do there? Is not this cor rect? (Cries of Yes! YesD
 'I know this and I submit 1t to your l consideration. When I buy those for. ,eign, goods. say a carriage of French or. English make, I know that I am paying the workmen of France or Eng
 land Therefore decrease the product here. Therefore any goods which come in contact with your own labor, dimin- ish your earnings. Is this correct 1 (Cries of YesD
 | 'I know another thing in connection with the income tax. Even in the war | of the Rebellion this was such an iniquitous, inquisitve tax that the peo- l pie could hardly stand 1t. But at the l behest of the populists, who are full of all sorts of strange ideas, this tax has ttbeen laid Now who pays it? (Cries | of The Workingmen.D The manufac. I turer has got to meet this expense just l as any other business expense. It is Tan expense just as much as the town, Ecity or school tax, and has got to be met on the same basis. So this tax l must come out of the consumer, or there will be lower wages The ques- 1 ton is often asked, When are things l going to be better? Now there will always be spurt, but what we want is a permanent improvement. The power Ito earn wages gives the power to buy 1 goods. Do you catch on to that? (Cheers.) It was said on the floor of the senate chamber the other day that over two billion dollars had in one year been taken from the pockets of the l workingmen of this country. The re. l port was made by Dun, and he can- not afford to lie, as his book is bought alike by the democrat and the repub-
 !!can
 "These few points, gentlemen, felt l as though must force on your consider ation. and I hope you may decide for | a new wagon. I. could not say more I could hardly say this. thank you heartily for this expression and will | give way to other speakers" President Farnsworth then in few l remarks, in which he said this was a |
