and all the income that has come from its last and
greatcst growth, and they have put on those two
cities, New York and Brooklyn, q debt Of more
taan $500, 600, 600. And the Democratic party in
quarter Of a century have put heavier debt on
the Two cities Of this country whers they have had
undisputcd sway than the United States Govern

not cost the Government Of the United States as
much rs the Democratic party have cost the Cities
Of Brooklyn and New York in the last twenty~
fire years. Now, it would be q handsome thing to
transfer that Government to Washington. The
people OF this country are hankcrlng for just lit
tie experience of that sort Why, there is no s9ch
as I exists in the CITY Of New " York today. Yon
people in Chicago can afford to put your hands in
your pockets and laugh Ct it. It is great grist to
New fork yon can stand By and laugh. And they
are doing il. They have made taxation SO heavy
and rulnous, so high, and the expenses Of doing
port from New York. You don't to-day in your
direct importations fou do not dare to bring
sarge from Sew ies Int that co.; Yon bring
Baltimore, and through the Canadas. Anything.
any way to avoid New York. It would
be bcttes to send them around the Cape
