any national Importance since 1861, to address
the Republicans Of this growing and this very
beautiful city, and by no means feel thnt 1 nm
among strangers, for Us look AboutI SEQ those
whom saw on tho first OCCASION ever visited
Aurora, who have stood With mc during those
long and terrible years Of tho War. sec those
who never faltcred when dangers Of tho most
serious character threatened US. see those To-
night who, after the War hatl closed, wcro as
resolutc that tho fruits Of our victory should be
gathered and garncred us they worc that those
Objects should be, III the FIRST instance achieved
sec those who have always been Republicans
ever since there haa been Il Republican party,
and who always will bo Republicans rs long as
tllorc Is n Democratic party. lChcers.l When

Ever since 1850, gentlemen, the Democrats
hayn been

IN 1854 they practically adopted our platform Of
1850; IN 1858 thoy adopted our platform Of 1861:
IN 1879 they ndoptcd our platform Of 1865; and
n 1876 they hare adopted our platform ot 1872.
