GREAT REPUBLICAN MEETING. 9

. oAAAI hhrUbLlCAN MEETING.
CLEVELAND, Oct. The Republican mass
meeting held to-day is conceded by everybody
to be the most Imposing demonstration in
numbers and enthusiasm ever made In North
ern Ohio. A hundred thousand people were
on the streets and the procession was an hour
and a half passing given point, marching
rapidly and in close order. The torchlight
procession tonight was fully two miles in
length. Addresses were made by Governor
Hayes, Senator Sherman, ex-Secretary STAN
ton, Gen. Garfield and Lieut.. Gov. Lee.
letter from Senator Fessenden was read.
1t says: t4aaW s5sa9 sassf .lgsq.b
-. T sincerely regret my inability to be with
liar interest to Ohio. One of her most promi-
nent sons claims to be the originator of a
financial doctrine which tie Democratic party
has adopted in its platform, which we cannot
but consider as at war with the plainest prin-
ciples of common honesty. Maine so declared,
and her opinion cannot be misunderstood. It
remains TO be seen what Ohio thinks of it, for
the honor Of that magnificent State as well as
the Nations credit it is to be hoped that her
voice will be equally loud and emphatic. Per-
init me to say in this particular, the response
bility on question of such vital Importance to
the welfare of this great people 1 think
nothing but the very highest ground can be
taken consistently with the National or party
honor. The tone of the Republican platform
ia this particular, is beyond all praise. The
reputation, as unworthy of the character and
principles of that great party which had sue
cessfully conducted the Nation through the
perls OF mighty war. Anything shor of the
payment of the National dept in good faith,
according to the understanding of those
who contracted it, is in essence reputation.
The evils which would flow from such an at
tempt are even greater :han defeat in a con-
hict of arms. A people who have justly for
feited the respect of mankind have nothing
left worthy OF preservation. trust, therefore,
that in Ohio, as in Maine, the campaign will
be conducted throughout upon the principle of
open defiance TO all such demoralizng doc
trines, whatever shape they may assume in
civil as well as in military life, that courage
in the right direction, faith in a good cause
and confidence in the people may prevail, as
well against the arts OF the demagogues as
well as against the rebels in arms. will not |
touch upon the other great issue involved in
the coming election None can fail to under
stand it or feel its importance. We all know |
ebat upon it depends the great question |
OF quiet or confusion of order or disorder |
awaiting the popular decision. 1t is plainly |
the duty of every man to spare NO effort to
save the coantry from the calamity of a Dem
ocratic triumph. Happily ii we do our whole
duty success Is sure, and Ohio will be able to
claim an enviable share in the coming victory,
in which we have most abiding confidence.
