Last evening a crowded public meeting of the
; electors was held at the Fisherman's Arms Tavern
near the *tory of Messrs. Penn, Coldbath, Green-
wich, to hear an address from Mr. Alderman Salo-
mons explanatory of his political principles as a
candidate for the representation of the borough.
The chair was occupied by Mr. Earnshaw, who
commenced the proceedings by briefly alluding to
the objects of the meeting.
Alderman SALOMONS, who was received with re-
peated applause, observed that it gave him peculiar
pleasure to address a meeting of working men. He
was himself a working man, and could assure them
that since Monday he had worked excessively hard
by calling on his friends throughout that district.
He had, in fact, not only worked 12 hours a day,
but he had worked overtime, and he felt so fatigued
that he began to think that even the high honour
of representing Greenwich—for it was a high hon -
our—was dearly purchased. Alderman Salomons
then referred to the great meeting held during the
present week at Birmingham, and especially to the
address delivered by Mr. Bright. The English
language was never spoken with greater force than
on that occasion when Mr. Bright so well enunciated
his opinion with regard to the representation of
the people. This country was now on the eve of a
new Reform Bill. When that Reform Bill was
fairly launched it would be the great question of
the day, and if it fell short of the just expectations
of the people, notwithstanding the present apparent
political quietude, they might expect to see renewed
in this country something akin to the feeling which
prevailed when the political unions were founded in
1832. Of course those who were without the
franchise, the great mass of the working classes,
would exert themselves to obtain that privilege, and
a large extension of the suffrage must result. Whe-
ther that extension would be manhood suffrage, or
to what extent, it was impossible to say ; but if they
sent him as their representative, he would support
a measure for giving political rights to the masses
of the people. Every man had a domicile, and
every man who had a domicile should also have a
vote. (Cheers.) Alderman Salomons then alluded
to the advancement of education amongst the
humbler classes as a proof that there was no
danger to the social fabric by a wide extension of
political rights. He confessed himself a convert to
the ballot, and he was so because he believed it was
needed by the working classes. A man who worked
for a master was often in a position that he had to
choose between giving up his own conscientious
opinion or offending his employer. i
asfeelingthi w
of the working classes on under-
stood
subject
v e our lab our in return for
th
it e w
wages, but we wish also to retain our opinions
without giving offence. He therefore conceived
that no Reform Bill would be perfect unless it
contained a provision for the ballot. The question
of church rates ought also to be immediately settled,
as they were a fruitful source of discord and bad
He should therefore support an entire
abolition of these rates. Alderman Salomons then
reviewed his past connection with that borough.
They returned him, and he could not sit, but he
battled for his seat in the courts of law ; and
although at a subsequent period he was rejected by
the constituency, yet they told him that whenever
he could take his seat, he should be sure of it. He
now asked them to redeem that promise; and he had
certainly found that a few who were very sweet
upon him were now supporting Angerstein. How-
ever, if there was consistency in the electors of
Greenwich he should be the test of that consis-
tency, and from the support he had received he had
no fear as to the result of the contest. Alderman
Salomons then replied to various questions from
electors, and a resolution, pledging:the meeting
_to
support him at the
poll,
was ,moved by Mr.
Winter, seconded by Mr. Oxley, and unanimously
adopted.
