PEACE AND PATRIOTISM.
Labor Men in Chicago Hear Adj
dresses from Mckinley
and Stevenson.

Chicago, H., July 5.-Organized labor,
hand in hand with peace and patriotism,
celebrated the glorious Fourth in true
Did fashioned way at Sharpshooters'
park. Socialism was rebuked and parti-
san politics tabooed by the thousands of
trade unionists who went to the park to
prove that devotion to the cause of labor
lid not mean disloyalty to the stars and
stripes. One great Democratic leader
ce-Presdent Steyenson-and one great
Republican leader-Gov. McKinley-spoke
from the same platform and struck the
same KEY that sang of love of country and
fidelity to the constitution 1t was organ
lZed labor'S declaration of freedom and
SocialiStic trammels and a declaration
Of adherence to the principles Of law and
order.
Nearly $4,000 people joined in the great
demonstration. From 10 O'Clock in the
morning long professions of unlonists,
with their families and picnic baskets,
left the street cars and wendell their way
toward the park to take part in the rally
and picnic. All those who tlocked to
the park did not belong to the Illinois
State Federation of Labor or the Trade
and Labor Assembly of Chicago But
these organizations had arranged the pa
triotic rally. Many of the crowd went
there solely to hear Gov. Mckinley and
Vice-President Stevenson. Many were
crowded out of the speakers grove. which
held only 5000 persons, and they had to
be satisfied with a glimpse of the orators
as they drove through the park.
Though the opening exercises did not
begin until 3 80 O'clock, the crowds in the
park enjoyed themselves during the morn
ing i'll the oldfashioned way. They danced,
threw rings on sticks or burst into noisy
demonstrations of patriotism with giant
crackers and bombs
