great responsibility the who answered It, for

Mr. IRA b. DAVIS President Of the Practical Democrats
the next speaker. Ee spoke substantially fol-
lows-I have not been able to understand the words
spoken here tonight, fellow citizens but have felt
their influence in the right place feel pleased in
sociatng with whose souls expands that
they recognise their fellow brothers, who
feel tnat the of liberty cannot be fully realized
until the human race becomes grand republic. To
certain remarks made by the gentleman who spoke in
English (Mr Rose the native American organization,
must except / tnov little OF that society and can
only Judge Of it by appearances, and from these
neither endorse its principles approve of its action
in the hour of their trial the friends of liberty through
the civilized world determined to establish here
asylum (Cheers.) Yes they determined toestablish
asylum here on the broad platform OF equality Tae
patr OTIS Of 1776 did not ask of of what nation
you No the right hand of felo wshp was open to all
feel 1t duty to myself, to my country and to buman
ty to say that the designs OF this organization to
sap the foundations Of the liberties we enjoy
Ssrsere to in
America, where my fellow. citizens boast Of
their independence, and set themselves up as a
model Of perIection-where the masses starving
and are throngpg the streets in crowds, asking for
bread, while multtudes are rolling in wealth. Yoa
democrats you establish government take warning
from this and let it be free from these evils Let it be
free from crime and poverty poverty most especially
Yes repeat poverty especially because poverty
gives rise TO all the crimes in existence (Cheers)
feel to thus the remarks OF fellow citizen
for there may be secrets the society to which refer
not apparent to the eyes OF the public yet when al
men who denounce their fellow creatures, and because
they happen TO be born in another country because
they worship at another shrine would cartail them Of
10
men are base 1t seems to me that behold here the
arstocracy OF the old world revived, and that the
misery age after age But, friends good viii
ont of this. As, when q sbipwreck takes place, all
crushed out in the countries Of the Old World the
friends OF the united to establish hero asylum
tell the natives of this country to look back their
own history and they VIII find that the Weather por
zion of society tories and that the true republicans
the working men. (Cheers.) If this wild wilder
continent had been governed the srJ OF
the Declaration of Independence designed it should be
it would be covered now for should have Cleaned
the old continent of its and left the arstocracy
there alone. (Appauae) This should have been
work. instead Of placing obstacle in the way of emit
grafton IL is The arlstocracy of Europe who are the
enemies Of emigration have trav lied millions OF
acres of this great continent and find diseases spring
ing from these forests and miasmas whose inhalation
places were only these marshes We're CLEANED
these qaarries swept away and these lands made cod
Portable should become healthier longer lived ant
enjoy happiness that we never dreamed of before.
Yet men putting their faces against emigration The
patriots from Europe must not look upon this any
as the land Of bety-the asylum where they can end
home. The effect OF this native American movement
will be to unite all liberal Americans and republicans Of
the Old World in band Of brotherhood. (Cheers)
believe that at the next election the foreigners and lib
eral Americans will put these Know Nothings out OF
istence. ! know them; know thor wiIes AMI their
tricks; know what ushersd them into existence and
henceforth all true democrats must unite band of
brothers against such despcable order. (Immense
cheerng.)
