SPEECH OF THE HON. g. ,. TILDN.
FELLOW CIrIzENs-The great victory which We
have lately achieved In the state OF New York Is
not personal victory. Its benencent conse-
quences will not be confined to q party or to any
class Of citizens Its blessings. like the dews OF
heaven, win fall equally upon all the people, TAP
pause.) Many republicans voted with rs, and, II
we are wise In our future policy, they will gener
ally remain as permanent coworKers in our cause.
Many thou sands OF republicans who have
not had the moral courage to break away from
party Ties slept more TRANQUILITY on the night after
the election. In our success they relt sense OF
relief They saw the dawning OF new hope for
their own personal prosperity and for the rescue
OF the mperi.led institutions OF our country. Let
us, then, IN the midst OF our congratulations not
forget to be magnanimous toward our adversaries
In the recent contest Let US remember
what General Grants administration see ms
never TO have known-that the party in
vested with the powers Of government, while It
will be guided by its convictions OF right a. to
public measures, i after all only trustee for the
whole people. Applause) The masters OF po-
litical science who framed our government pre-

that they have been wasting the resources and
blighting the prosperity OF our people.
THE THIRD TERN.
In most countries OF the Old World the mere
machinery OF government has been able to subu-
gate the unorganized masses OF the people. Even

enough at best. Its cost in human lives doubled
BY disregard Of the principle Of the military art,
which requires the concentration on a decisive
