teri "Why, father" said Leph, how is thati
il is such good place to twiich." Loud laughter.
Now it seems TO me, fellowcitizens Mr.. Douglas at
Baltimore will find that s an exceentpl place TO twitch
but that the fishing will be lacking in all the essential
ions him; if Richmond comes into the Baltimore Con
yention; very we'll We shall have fair standup fight
with it, But if it does come in the South yields every
point for which ii has been contendng for many years

Ohio Valley us single illustration. Look upon one
side OF that noble river, and then upon the other. The
hardy woodlands has levelled the forests of Ohio
and the yellow harvest waves there It's plenty crowned
with the glory that God gives His tribute 10
honest, free labor. Cheers and applause. Look on
the other SIDE scared failing, fading Yet, when God
made Kentucky, He made it better than Ohio in its
