lew short moments upon the occasion that has now
brought together It's but two years
great parties this country rallied against each
,her in political hostility, and during which conflict the
Democracy were defeated but in such manner and by
such means that who hears the sound OF my
voice doubt the fact that the victory was won by base
misrepresentation and fraud piled upon fraud The cry
then was" give us change'-and we will give you
dollars aday and roast beef and now have the
fraud and Misrepresentation most eloquently developed
throughout our land among the suffering of our
Isborng poor. 1t then denied that the
charterng of national bank was in issue, and
