But there is a danger, IJfear that the scope ol the w- *rua *‘our people, ’ and ait i hey nnjart, are not always full* apprehended. It is only natural that those in various walks of life should “our people" within range of their own tisioa and uid ,iust abmt them the inter ests most important and most worthy the car* of the government. The rich merchant or capi talist, in the writer of wealth and enterprise, hardly h&i a glitnpHe of the country black smith at his forge or the fanner in his fleid. and these, in their tuna know but little of the lauorors who crowd our manu factories and inhabit their own world of toil, or j of the thousands who labor in our mines, if representatives of every element of our popu lation and industries should be gathered to gether they would find but little of purely Hel lish and personal interest in cotnmou. and upon superficial lance but. little would be seen to denote that only one people was nr presented. Vet In the spirit of out institutions, ali of these so separated in station aud personal interest arc a common brotherhood and are “one people,’ all of equal value l>efore the law, all having by their suffrage the same voice n governmental affairs, all demanding with e jua!

Taedi *rsi(y of our int*rests, through the source of boundless wealtu and prosperity, has ten dency to pressjour people apart. This condi tion demands of us a counter-force of liberal itynnd toleration towards each oth r and an enlightened regard for the condition of ‘. very individual who contributes t > the groat ag gregate of our nati.oral great tu-ss. This aggre gate fostered and incroe-ed by united, earnest aud unselfish effort, will > ioli fuil return for individual enterprises and labor, without drying up the fonntams of brotherly k>n luess and for bearance upon which the political health of our people depend. This centennial time, which stirs our pride by leading iih to contemplation of our tremendous stride in wealth and great ness, also recalls to our minds the virtues and unseUiso devot ion to the principle of those who saw the first days of the repubhe. Let ti .re be non a revival of our love for the principles which our country rep resents; let there at this time anew conse cration to rhe cause of mans freedom and equality and a quickeuei wnso of th© solemn responsibility assumed before the world by every man who wears the badge of “our peo ple."

CHICAGO CELL BRA. THIS. Eig-ht Maps Meetings and Many Other Features. Chicago, April iW.—C dcago’s celebra tion of the 100th anniversary of the inaugu ration of George Washing on was of a dis tributive rather tha i a concentrativo sort. The day was a legal holiday and business was entirely suspended. The city blossomed with national colors, wrought into all manner of artistic decora tion. The day was ushered in at sunrise with a salute, and at 8:d0 o’clock another salute of thirteen guns was hr© 1. About this lime the various military organizations of th© city emerged from their armories in full cross uniform and proceeded to the diffe e it temples of wor ship Gov.

Tli© shrinks of children trampled underfoot could bo plainly beard above the bo miug of the tig bombs and the cheers of the unaffected 'parts of the vast assemblage. The first pressure on the west s'd forced the crowd against the audi torium, Studcbaker’d building and the art institute. Then a reaction came and Ith a great roar the mob was forced eastward almost to the lake front. The Illinois Cen tral suburban trains were forced to stop, powerless to get through t.*e press of the people. bombarded by fireworks. Aside from th presence of the crowd itself a cause of excitement wa the huga ter pentine fireworks U.io of them shot out from the stand aud squirmed through tlie pr.oplo, scurcaiug everybody in its course. Another followed a moment later, seeming lit* ally to np the crowd in two. Women fainted everywhere and were brutally trampled up n a they lay iu tii© gross. The movement of the crowd a vay from the threatened horror and wholesale panic was met by a movement iu an opposite direction, and the result was a terrible convulsion of tne whole body. Seven y-fiv© policemen sent by CapL Bartram to keep order, we e tossed ab >ut as they might have neon on a billowy sa. But* the worst was t- come. Cougres* street is narrow alongside th© auditorium, and wnen the greatest jam came, it *oon afterwa and did when the fireworks were over and the people started westward and encountered th© multitudes wno had been unable the fireworks, the collision was frightful.
