0 notable day in the campaign.
Almost the first signs of activity in the
c;ty this morning came from marching
organizations with their band and
ilium corps. An escort clnb with over
:;0O members was organized before half
.ho iopulace was out of bed.andmany
people in the business part of the city
Icievreda parade before they had
breakfast,
TI; early arrival of Chicago Com
:u..rci;il McKinley Club No. 1 was the
i-cafcion of all this sunrise bustle and
Lurry. These visitors arrived about
? 0 o'clock, and took breakfast before
making their call at the McKinley
hvnie. John C. Dueber, President of
,,.. rntp.h ftomnanv bere.. was
- ' r
T-i r- unite with the company's
btfiii men "on the road" iir the

' .it ;xt :::decl the invitation to his em-.Ioyi'-:
, and it was these who affected
V early morning organization. This

c m-rrcial travellers turned out
to l.oi or their co-workers and' the
ie.rr.:fd escort,', and - the Citizens'
Omrrttee was also well filled. The
'rr; :! Army band attended the dele-

for the 'march each hoisted over his

.laijoraie jriik banners were also car
ried in the procession. Shortly before
10 o clock the parade reorganized aud
marched; to the McKinley home.
Thousands, cf people were by this
i.uio on the streets, and followed the
5ioeeisicn.
Vlion Msior McKinley appeared
Mpoh the porch in charge of G. J.
Corry, President of the club, C. P.
llich, Chairman of the Illinois S'ate
Central Committe, and Mr. Deuber,he
lound his lawn densely iacked with
people, and the crowds ext"d?ng far
mto abutting streets. Cheer after
cheer was seut up, umbrellas were
waved, and hats thrown into the air.
The enthusiasm continued until the
lopIe were tired with their exertion.
TJieti President Corry mounted the
porch chair and made a speech, -which
renewed the enthusiastic demonstra
tion. After an eloquent eulogy of
Major McKinley personally, and after
telling of the interest the members
have taken in his cause since the club's
organization, when McKinley became
Chairman of the Minneapolis "Conven
tion in 1602, Mr. Corry said:
I feel safe in saying that there ino
class of citizens in our country who
more thoroughly understand and com
prehend the true issues of this cam
paign than the commercial travelling
men. They are selected in all the
various lines 4of business. They are
satisfied with the money of our country
knowing that it is as good as any in
the .world. The commercial travelling
men of the United State have enlisted
nearly to a man to save . this country
from the fearful perils of a bankrupt
Treasury, fiat and depreciated money,
repudiation, and the other long chain
of evils that follow. The battleground
has been transferred in this campaign
tAnnr Western States, and I assure
vou that no more thorough, honest
work couldlbe done in this section
than the commercial ; travelling men
are now doing-iTbey are at work with
an enthusiasm that nardiy Knows
bounds, travelling early and late, with
Republican literature in every pocket
not forgetting that their next duty to

almost persuaded to say, the per

It seemed as though the demonstra
tion had reached high-water mark
when Major McKinley appeared upon
the perch. But even greater than this
was the demonstration when ho
mounted the chair to respond to Mr.
Corry. Cheers from thousands of
throats ront the air, and headgear and
campaign regalia were hurled about
as if a tamado ' had swept over the
place.
To The Commercial Travellers.
It was some time before the Major
could speakj When he did speak he
said: . . ,
"Mr. Corry and Gentlemen of
the Commercial Travellers'
Association and My Fellow
Citizens: - I bid you welcome, sincere,
welcome, to my home. Thrice welcome

of commercial men representing great
commercial interests and coming from
every section of our common country.

1 "Ton know the facts of business and
can dispel the theories of the dreamer
and the misstatements of the dema
gogue, and one thing I like about the
commercial travellers, is that every
one of them is for the United States of
America great applause and cries of
"And for McKinley, too" and always
stand up for America. Cheers. We
are all members of the great American
family, and those policies which are
good for one of us are good for all of
us. ivnes oi ji nnt is ngnu j a nose

plause. We have always practised
the golden'rule. The best policy isto
live and let live,' and to buy and sell
in the way that will best protect the
good of all. Applause. It . never
pays to buy cheap goods from a rival
whose object In selling to you at a low
price is to establish a business that
will in time destroy your own. Great
applause and cries of VThat is right."
We want no cheap goods in this
country at the expense of free and
honest American labor. Tremendous
cheerug and cries of "Hurrah for
McKinley." We want no cheap goods
whose production would require us to
introduce fin the United States in
dustrial and social degradation. -Cries
of "You are right; we don't." The
commercial travellers are practical
business men and comprehend business
results They understand business;
they know what will best promote it,
and they realize that it is not -what It
ought to be to-day in the United
States. Great applause and cries of
"That's right." ,
"I read an interview yesterday with
a commercial traveller, and he said
he had been In seven States, and the
reply to his question. 'Do you want
anything in my line?' came the stereo
typed answer, We don't need anything
now.1 Cries of "We have been there"
and great laughter. Well, gentlemen
we need all you have got in this line
of work for the country this year.
Gieat cheering and cries of "Youwill
get it." Ycu spokesman has elo
quently enumerated several of the
gicu.t cientials to our welfare, and
presperity, Protection, as he well said,
is the true national policy, the founda
tion stcno on which must be reared
the great structure of American
ascendancy and progress, the system
that is pieserative of all busine.??,
that .steadily -advances this county to

mining, irinla ixud farming, which it
should olvvayh occupy greater thnn

applause. ;

BENEFITS OF RECIPROCiTV.
"Reciprocity, the twin of protection
-x i th trre",n imaiden of prosperity
already lies a strong hold on the
auectious oi our pt?op!e. Lur.it ed as
the opportr cities have been she always
shown that she can be a great factor
in the traue oi our country. What we
want, gentlemen, is a reciprocity.' tuat
is fair, liberal, and just to ours us well
as to other countries. We will have
no policy by which we do not get as
much as we give Cries of "Good!
GoodTJand will inaugurate no reci
procity policy that takes from Ameri
can workmen a single day's work that
they can possibly get. Great ap
plause and cries of "McKin ley's all
right."
We will simply revive the policy
that put American flour in Havana
free and gave Cuban sugar free to the
people of the United States (great
cheering on terms alike just, fair,
honorable, and advantageous to both
countries. Renewed cheering.
4The policy of Harrison and Blaine
means the supremacy of trade not its
injury. It proposed new and larger
markets to oar surplus manufactured
aud agricultural products not In
jurious competition nor lessened trade.
It must mean better wages and firmer
nrices for what we do or can produce-
not less work or poorer reward to any
of our citizens. It found our foreign
products practically excluded from the
countries that were receiving Import
ant and profitable concessions from
the United States, and exacted equal
advantages from them. It said: 'Open
your gates to us; ours are already open
to you. It Increased our foreign trade
only in a degree that it advanced cur
domestic trade. Protection guards the
products of our labor at home; reci
procity opens a market for tne pro-
I ducts of our Jabor abroad. Cries f

demands It. Great applause.
FOUND TREASURY, SEEDED.'
; 'A sound Treasury, too, is demand
ed alike by every consideration of
good government and good business.
iThe Government must provide, rev-
enue for all expenses cr !ts credit will
be in constant jeopardy. Four of the
great Invaluable ends which Hamilton
said In 1790 were to be secured by a
proper and adequate provision for the
support of public credit' are as Im
portant to-day as they were then.
Let me innumerate them: - 4To pro
mote the increasing respectability of
the American name; to answer the
calls of justice; to furnish new re
sources both to agriculture and com
merce, and to establish public order
on the basis of an upright and liberal
policy.'
"The means Hamilton recommended
for the accomplishment of these glo
rious objects are those that should be
restored in the administration of our
Government to day. He favored the
levying of sufficient duties upon for
eign products to provide abundant
resources for the support of the Gov
ernment cries of "Good, good.", to
pay'iU naticLal debt and establish,
foster, and encourage manufacturing,
commerce f,nd agriculture, j Ap
plause. He favored the policy of
fully protecting the American people
in their occupation ard enterprises,
thereby creating that splendid home
market which is the best and greatest
in the world. Great cheering. He
favored a debt-paying, not a debt-in-crc-aslns
