WrLIIAMsroRr, Pa, Sept. 81, 1872
Senator Tipton OF Nebraska, addressed a largo
and enthusiastic crowd OF liberals In the Court
House In this city this evening. Wlamsport has
peen' up TO within the past week, unusually apa-
thetic with regard to the issues of this campaiQn
Curtins letter and the advent OF Mr.. Greeley las6
evening have awakened them to sense of the reA
sponsibilities OF the Issue before the people, and
hereafter there will be found harder workers ind
the cause Of reform in Pennsylvania. The liberal
movement in Lycoming county is growing daily ind
strength and influence, and the people here ex1

WHAT THE SENATOR SAID AND WHAT HE HOPES. ;
Senator Upton, in the course OF his re-
marks d:-My mission must be to my
late republican brethren. You told my Mb}
eral republican brethren there was no usel
of organizing such party. You were very much
mistaken. You look upon the republican party as
having been organized for the present II the3
questions OF to-day had been involved in the issues
of 1855 your theory would have been correct. II
was formed by men who agreed In opposing Pierce'S
administration and the admission of slavery into
the Territories and for making Kansas free State1
Suppose the South had taken alarm and emancif
pated all her slaves within year. the party would
never have neld together an hour afterwardsy
Never having been proved by the ssues OF the past
what had held the republican party together until
1872 After the end OF the war new questionS
arose-the questions OF currency, tariff tenure or oH
flee and civil service reform new questions new
questions. Could not Morton, OF Indiana; ChandlerR
of Michlgan Cameron, Of Pennsylvania; all polt3
ticians-if l were not In Pennsylvania would
say merely politicans--could not they see thesd
new questions arising They did see them, butt
they determined to make personal capital out Of
these new issues. II senator differed from theI
administration this worthy trio went to the PrestJ
dent so as they saw he hesitated how to actI
saying, "Mr. President, you must discipline this
man." Carl Schurz did not agree with the admin
! istration; he must be "dscplinedn The Ofcd
holders In Missouri who had been appointed
through Schurz's influence, were removed The
honest-h hearted senator could not understand thisj
The sufferers asked why they were removed and
were told it was because they voted according td
their consciences. Having sustained their senatori
they were made to suffer- Henry WILSON,
