HARRISON.

PERKINS C. 1 oamiuay. August imn was a gala da3" for Independence and Mont gomery county in honor of it's nomi nee for governor, Hon. L. U.

Hum phrej-. We give a report below, as we glean it from the Tribune, and the Kansas City Journal: "At an early hour the streets began to fill with enthusiastic Republicans, and business houses were fairly well decorated with flags and bunting. About 11 o'clock the Cherryvale and and Cherry township procession began to arrive over one hundred teams and four hundred people, and' was the event of the morning. Cherryvale Re-pnbliccnsnever do ahj'thing by halves and are never content with anything less than having the biggest majority of anj' town in the county, and although thej- only began on 'Wednesday evening to prepare, the- were not outdone on this occasion. With their pendid Cornet Band in the lead, the crowd followed in vehicles and on horse-back with a veritable log cabin, and numerous Hags and appropriate banners.

The cabin was built on a large wagon, of logs, with a stick chimne3- outside, and a roof of riven clapboards, and had the one little window, the puncheon floor and the batten door and latch string hanging out. In front was a spinning wheel and reel, with shuttle aud bunch of hackletl tiax, just as used by our mothers forty years ago. Then there was the big gourd, the hand of tobacco, the bunches of "yarbo," the seed corn, and the shingle fly trap, and on the side was stretched'a wolf skin, aud at the end was chained a 'alf and alf wolf and '3-aller" dog. It was observed bj- all observers, and caused a great deal of amusement. Behind these came a most LMithusiastic crowd bearing appropriate ba ners.

Tri bu ne. "The meeting was held in the Protection Palace, a novel edifice seating 3,000 people. It was built of bark covered poles and roofed with sunflowers and hay wired down. The structure was as handsome as it was novel. Long before the hour of commencing the exercises of the dav- the immense structure was full, and there was fully 3,000 more stood around the open where they remained while the speeches were being made.

Over the back of the stage were the pictures of the nation's dead Lincoln, Grant and Sheridan. On the stajre were 37 old Republican veterans of the Harrison campaign of 1840. Prominent on the stage also were George 1, Anthony, James Hallowell, A. W. Smith, A.

N. Kellogg, J. V. Buckman, General Mice, C. II Kimball, Gov.

L. U. Humphrey and ethers of local note. The lndependeuc Glee Club, eleven strong, commenced the jubilee by singing a farewell song to Cleveland and Thnrman. Col.

Remington welcomed the visiting hosts, tendering them the hospitalities of the city. He welcomed them as Republicans giving a kind word to those who were not in the par-t3T. Hon. A. W.

Smith was the first speaker. He congratulated the state upon the selection of Mr Humphrey as the Republican standard bearer, who would lead the party to success. There was to be six eclipses this year, three of tue sun, two of the moon and one 01 tne ueniocrane party, lne latter to be total. The Democrats were invited to the front, as in hear ing the itepuDtican doctrines, the-would hear of a.family who had been for three generations fighting the enemies of the United States the British, the Indians and the Democrats. He then devoted his time to considering the; good in protection and the evils of the i free trade tendencies of the Democrat-; ic part3T.

The enthusiasm with which this speech was received proved the earnestness of the Republi-i cans of the Third district. One fact in Mr. Smith's speech was prominently brought out. When working iu the Cambria works he had painful evidence! that whenever there was a reduction in iron there w-as a reduction in wages to correspond. And when the duty on steel rails was reduced, the next da3 a notice was posted up that wages would be reduced again on the 10th of the month, and the reduction was made.

The Columbus Glee Ckib by Misses Rose Timberlake and Etta Slaughter, gave nvo campaign 4 ongs that were received with shouts os c-neers: Hon. T. P. Anderson, -of Oierokee: county was the next -speaker. He entered int the bank and land questions, answering in full the false1 statements of the.crowd which has been canvassing this section xf the state.

The Gate City Glee Clnb, of Coffeyville, assisted by Miss Nettie Brando Amy PeietC, to the tune "John Brown" sang "Down with the t)Id Bandana and: up with Our Union Flag." This song: possessed the virtue of not being doggerel. Something so unusual that sober, staid Governor Anthony swung aloft the flag, and "led -the audience in their enthusiastic -cheering. The-)swegO'band, -a fine with rtbe' "Tenth by Graffiila, Gen. J. H.

Rice, of Ft. Scott. 'This last speech of the afternoon was a direction forcible attack upon Democratic party and its principles, including 'Thnrman, who penned the infamous Chicago res-olutioix declaring the -war a failure. The afternoon speaking riind music lasted four hours, andJiOt doaen of the great crowd left the Xvigwam. THE NIGHT was much larger the afternoon meeting; two special trains came in from Fredonia and Chanute, adding about 800 frota outside.

moderate estimate of the attendance at the two meetings placed the number .11,000 souls. It is probable that there was 2,000 more number. The Columbus and CofivUle Glee Clubhand the opened the the meetings, when -J. was introduced. He -was received rounds of applause.

Without preface he. plunged into his speech. His of. his while not palatable to Demociats present, seemed to be appreciated by I tl.OO a Year. Irt Variably In Advance f-Entered at the postofliceat Cherryvale Kansas, as pccond-clusa mail matter.
