The TAYLOR MEETING IN PHILADELpHIA.-
The Philadelphia Bulletin, speaking of the
great Taylor Meeting held it that city on Sat
urday evening, says.
The meeting on Saturday evening reminded
MS of the days of Jackson and Harrison-ot
1928 and 1910, periods when the people arose
in their might, and spurning the dictation Of
party leaders, elevated ''good and true" men to
office. 1t is happy omen for the permanently
of the republic, to see these risings of the whole
community in favor ola peoples candidate; fol
otherwise a dominent party would perpetuatt
It's power. and growing corrupt as it grew old
would change this republic into a virtual des
potism. God forbid that we should ever see
In America, as men have seen in the old worlC
an absolute government reigning under al
forms of a free one.
We repeat, therefore, we are glad to see The
peoples appreciation of such a character a
Gen. Taylor. The republic wants such a man
at the helm of the State.
