THE CAUSES WHICH BROUGHT ABOUT REFORM
The alarming tendency Of Government toward tho
Capitalization Of power at Washington; the feeling
throughout our land that the time had come when we
should return to the original principles OF representative
government; the yearning desire that everywhere
throughout al our borders civil authority should be par

cARPEr-BAG ROBBERY OF THE SOUTH.
Gentlemen we are entering upon the eighth year since
the war closed The issues which wero decided by us
have been cryazed into history and have become part
OF the situation OF country No man proposes to in
terfere with what has been decided. No party could
live an hour which desired rebut the things which
have settled by the arbitration or the sword IN
that view IL becomes the duty OF 10 unite on
anJ GOOD government throughout our Republic ZAP

week. and heard dstin guished orator OF the Admlns

He has increased under his rule the debts or some OF the
states from s2OOOOO0 10 sl4OOOOOO and others from
$500 900 up S5O0000O. He has done no work OF public
IMPORTANCE to show where the money has gone to- The
only evidence OF its expenditure his own possessions
and royal life He has done this not for the dement, OF
the black man. because the money appropriated 10 ou
homes for the freedmen has never produced ioot Oh

POWER OF THE FEDERAL oFF1CE-HoLDERs.
We propose Republicans, to restore to these
people universal suffrage, that the rights
of the black man cannot be nterfered with to give.
furthermore impartial and universal suffrage. and to
trust once more the good old principle that in re-
publican form Of government the eradication OF evils is
best done by the people themselves. (Appause Sixty
tbonsand ottice-holders, controlled and oncered "A
military organization, exhibited their power by calling
together a National Convention, unanimous, without
dissent for the denomination of the present Adminstra-
