Carl schurz's Cincinn ,a speech.

night. Hundreds of people were Turned awav
unaole 10 gain admission. Mr.. Schurz, in
tne outset, characterized as an idle invention
me story that his appearance in the Ohio
campaign was part of a plan to lead indie
PehGent voters OF the country into the re
PtOllcan party, and commit them to support
It's candidates In the presidential campaign
OF 1876. He not only intends not to com NIT
anyoCuy else, ne SAID, but does not intend TO
commit himself "Whether the republican
party Will put itself in a position to deserve
support I'm 1876 remains to be seen also" He
then referred to the Ohio democratic plat
form, foremost IN the issues of which was a
presentation OF financial policy which he
declared, 4" If followed by the national gov
eihmeht' would dlscredit republican institu-
lions Inc world over, expose the American
people TO the rIdicule and contempt of civil
lZed mankind, make our political as well as
business business lie more than ever the hot-bei of
eambIlng and corruption, and plunge the
country into all the depths of national bank
ruptcy and ruin" Und er the stimulus of suc-
cess In OhfO, he had good reason to fear the
imitation fever would sweep like wild
| fire over the western and southern states
OverWhelm and subjugate the democratic
naIiohal convention next year, dictate its
Iolcy ana It's candidates, and put an in6a-
| ton party in the field strong enough to DEFY
| opposition. 1t is but too probable, he added
further on, that the sectional feeling which
the imitation movement strives To eycita i'm
The west and south will be infiamed to m Dre
bitterness, and that the financial question
VIII be used as new agency to revive the
curse of sectional warfare in our paIiticS
Mr.. SchurZ then made some further defen ce
OF MS own position TO show that he has not
changed his cOlOrs since he appeared az an
advocate of the liberal ticket In 1872 which
was nominated upon a platform I'm favor ola
speedy resumption of specie payments. That
platform was sOlemnly Endorsed and adopted
as the political faith of the democratic marty
by their national convention at Baltimore
Upon that platform they stood then, and
upon IL, said Mr.. SchurZ, 81 stand TODAY"
The speaker then proceeded at length TO dis
cuss the questions involved, holding severely
10 the postulate that the resumption ofspecie
payments is the only possible means of paw
Ing lhe way 10 revival OF business aud a
new prosperity.
