OF my public acts, for Dr. Gwin tells YOU that
am on trial, and although there is mo one
here to prosecute me, although am not ask.
cd to say whether am guilty or not guilty
am very anxious TO be tried; for never was
man IN durance yet but he wanted to get out
ol IT, Laugh Therefore | wish this
campaign to be disposed of at as early day
! 20 Posslole-at least my connection with It.
lfn old "hlte headed man, standing near
.ue Stage exclaimed, in husky voice, THE
Jury brings in a verdict Of NOT ci,urv ~
! Great laughter and cries of "You're correct
Foreman y But let me not be misunderstood
| am not dcsirous Of closing this contest I'm.
til DR.. G twin has lived up to his inpoeotio,,
and met me face to face before the people--
! lCheers. | challenge him to a fairly ar.
ranged discussion, and will agree to abide
the result. There is no excuse that will an.
swer for his non appearance Until he lives
up to his own promise-I should call it, rath
err his threat-made, as showed at Marvs-
vile, on the floor of the United States Senate,
accuse him of evading the contest; and his
friends should have the goodness to refrain
from prating about his assumed ability to
prosecute me or my asserted incompetency to
defend my course. Let him come out with
me before the State of California fCheers |
| imagine that can give him new matter,
from this day or, without quoting from that
veXatlous Placerville speech" Cheers
"He never'll meet you, Davel"l | under
stand that General Denver addressed YOU at
length, last evening, on the subject of Lime
Point. He told you, am informed, that it
was very necessary that the State should
purchase that tract of land, so that q fortress
could be constructed at the entrance of San
Francisco harbor. lie stated that it would
give work to hundreds of poor laboring men
now out Of employ. What is all this talk
about finding employment for aboring men?
suppose that the construction Of the promo
sed fort at Lime Point could give hundreds
and thousands If mechanics remunerativc
labor, would you have your representatives
IN Congress vote for plundeiing scheme
with that benefit entailed ? Let me put the
question squarely, and in exact accordance
with the Lime Point illustration. Would
you have your Senators vote for an appro.
priation of $4,000 ,000-$200 900 Of which was
to 90 to line the pockets of Spectators, while
only 100000 was applied to the hiring of
laGoring men L"No| "NoWl Then these
appeals to labOriug classes are the most con-
temptlole OF demagogue subterfuges Be
not deceived, When the scheme for secu-
ring an appropriation of 100000 for the
.
was no thought of your interests, laboring
men, on the part of the schcmcrs. If the
appropriation had passed, do any of the Ia.
boring men of this State imagine that those
individuals who obtained the largest slice Of
the spoils would have engaged masons and
carpenters to build for them a Suburban vii.
la along the line Of that superb water front!
Laughter. Did you look at General Den.
yer ? Did he look like O working mana
representative of the working class lie is
a very huge thighed man. Have his muscles
been developed and strengthened by me-
ca@aicai labor? Has he always cvinced
sympathy with the working classes? wish
you to observe who it is that is constantly
indulging iG compliments about working
men; whether they are manual or mental la
borers, or seedy and designing demagogues.
MIR. Broderick concluded his remarks by
calling upon his hearers, one and all to vote
for the ticket headed 'John Currey"
On leaving the stand, three cheers were
given for the speaker and three for the ticket
he recommended.
Mr.. McKibbin was then introduced to the
audience lie spoke for nearly or quite two
hours, and was warmly applauded through.
