DEMOCRATIC RATIFIC ALTON MEETING

The mass meeting in the Pavilion Sat
urday evening was we'll attended and
enthusiastic. 1t was called to order by
Chas. ID. Emery, and was organized by
the election of W. H. White, President;
Vice-presidents, W. H. Taylor, M. Il.
Maddocks, NJ. V. 3. Stacey, Robert
Flynn, Thomas Burke, George Moore,
D. s.. Smith, d. B. Curry, Benz. Muir
ply, Charles Moore, Henry Zimdar
Fred. Snyder, Fred. Dyer, J. NJ. Lyons,
Hillory Butler, S. +. Coombs, 7. S.
Russell, +. S. Fowler, John Collins
Frank Matthias, Robert Brown, Frank
Mcclellan, Hugh Crockett, and Luke
McRcdmond; and Secretaries, D. W.
Seyle, John l.. Jameson, and Beriah
Brown, Jr. W. II. White was the first
speaker on the stand. He announced
that the meeting had been called to
ratify the nomination for President OF
Samuel j. Tilden, one of the purest
men in the nation, and 1ecounted briefly
and forcibly the grounds in favor of his
election. Mr.. Emery was the next
speaker. He stated that of the 33G
votes constituting the electoral college,
200 or sixteen more than the requisite
majority could safely be counted on for
Tilden. He declared that the votes of
the Southern States, numbering 1873 bal
lots, was Democratic; and, to show the
drift of New York, with 50 votes, of
which it has been said that cas- New
York goes SO goes the Union" he cited
the fact that the Democratic ma ority in
that State was 10000 in 1868, u, 241
in 1869 and 9,73O in 1870, while it in
1872 gave Grant 81 1925 over Greeley,
and John A. Dix, the Republican cam
didate for Governor, IS, 431 over Ker-
nan, now Senator in Congress. But
in 1854 Tilden running against the same
popular Gen. Dix, was elected by a ma
iority of 5O,317. He also cited,similar
figures to show that the popularity OF
Gov. Hendricks in Indiana, correspond
ed with that of Tilden in New York.
The third speaker was Thomas Burke,
whose speech was frey arraignment
of the Republican party for the crimes
and corruptions of Its past record. He
declared LunC tuefc WIS AOt u Sluoic
leader or prominent statesman in all
the Republican ranks whose record was
SO irreproachable that the party dared
to place him before the fire of a politi-
cal campaign. Tilden would have the
nerve and the moral courage to strike
down corruption wherever it should
show itself. He was just the man for
the crisis. The speech elicted much
applause. After MIR. Burke had finished,
the chairman Introduced Mr.. Frank Nc
Lellan, of White River, as a represen-
tative of the Changers. Mr.. McLel-
Ian made short but pointed and effect
i've speech, in which he predicted the
Granger vote in November for Tilden
and Hendricks. The occasion was en-
livened by stirring strains from the Sc
attic brass band, which played patriotic
airs in The interval between the address
es and the meeting adjourned with three
rousins cheers for Tilden, Hendricks
and acknowledgement.
