SENATOR pooLiTTLE's REMARKS.
Senator James Doohtile, OF Wisconsin, was then
introduced, and said:-Feow citizens OF the city of
New York, although have been citizen or the State
Of Wisconsin Tor twenty 1--WE years is great pleasure
me speak to the children OF my native State ana
never greater tnun OF the cCun
Try seek for union and peace IN order tha. we may
bring back wealth and prosperity to the country l
come fresh from the battle fields Of Indiana. where
great battle has been fought aud great victory
Bnt you must remember that what Indiana was New
York is now-he battle field tor constitutional liberty
have purpose to greet you the midst
OF tins excitement al the union OF democracy. L,ten
silence-atteniion. ] ask your thoughts upon the
grave question whether We do not want peace In
substance well as in ar between the people OF the
North ana South. Is IL 10 b~ liberty equality and
fraternity, or are the relations between them 10 be
ehAdv
mucn this question, but judging from appearances
should say that adyersaries al with the
people Of the South, and a stranger coming from
abroad listening 10 The arguments OF tho people
and reading the articles IN the papers would
wonderngly say are they Of war or are they at
pcaceY Let this end for II would be successful
rebuild the prosperity OF the South IL is from
thAt country find most or our rich exports. Again.
look at the amount OF expenditure OF the federal
government IL is enough TO condemn the republican
government when we lind $l4o, 600 900 wasted in the
expenses OF government do speak OF pensions and
interest on the national debt. speak OF the ordinary
expenses. But when you think that In eleven years
$4,000 000O 900. in TACT 500 per head Of every
man, woman and child, has been wasted DO you know
the average earnings OF nm able bodied man We lind
IN Massachusetts, that taking average OF 75 they
earn per head about $553 and their actual expenses
amount $3.50 per annum, leaving $40 surplus O:
that tho federal government draw So per head No
wonder The people are growing poor-groan'ng under
the taxation that Is crushing the country. Many OF
you do not know the federal tax collector You know
The State. city and county collector, but you do not
know the other. l will tell you where yon will find

more heavily taxed Ia this country than
England even after her most disastrous
wars with Napoleon. Here the speaker read
tract from English author on taxation and then
continued:-I have just read those few extracts IN
@ Haer 10 snow no~ tho
ing how 1t is done For the first time
in this country wc dni 100000 strong men
nneplo, ed, 1000, 600 others hall employed 100 900
going from house to house begging Tor bread or work
The true explanation of tins condition OF affairs IL
found the that Tins system 0 taxation has been
appled.n most successful Tor eleven years
dsbursing enormous sums 10 pay the most extrava-
CANT ordinary expenses OF the government Under
General Grants administration the government
poyas have been increased from 81 900 TO over
100000 What we want is retrenchment and reform
cut down the expenses Although the democratic
party nave only been in power Ia Congress year,
still they have cut the expenses over thirty million.
in the future General Grant asked for ty millions
more than he got When We shall take charge oi the
Presidential oihcc, and instead OF sending In demand
for one hundred and ory two millions we shall send
to Congress asking for not than hun
dred millions, the Senate, republican though II may bc
will not dare refuse to comply with the request
they dare not resist the wachword OF retrenehnent
and reform. Let us place the two candidates before
us. Governor Tilden and Governor Hayes. and SEQ
which IL most likely TO carry on, thai platform. |
know that there are some honorable republicans such
Mr. Schurz and Mr.. Evarts, who think that Governor
ministrat,on. | should like to know OF any
instance OF political party In power re-
forming themselves. The truth rs. that when
corruption and extravaganza enter into a
party they enter to stay and require some outside
power TO root them out The people must rise in their
power and purity tho administration. They be
Il humiliated before they be reformed ] have
nothing 10 say personally against Governor Hayes Of
q hio believe Mr.. Hayes to be an honest man bus
not man that has ever shown any strength as u
leader Of a people. Mr.. sumner Tried 10 re-
form the party aud was displaced by The senate
TO make for simon Cameron. although
former knew more IN day than the latter VIII in
q lifetime. Lyman Trnmbu undertook 10 reform the
schnrz and other great men all failed like manner
In CONCLUSION, Senator Doolitte said that the time
mad at last come when bright day loomcd up
Tor ihc Union, as with Governor Tilden in the
While House the industries o tho country
would be renewed, tho South would begin
10 shake the letters that bavo bound her Tor The
past eleven years. and her citizens, cheerod BY free
and liberal government, would devote their attention
TO business, ana cotton, sugar and other products
would soon block up our wharves waiting for shipping
carry them TO other countries In return gold would
roll INTO The country and specie payment would be
once more introduced. Remember, however that the
fate OF the country rests in your hands, in this
instance New YORK carries the balance Of power.
MR.. sAyLER, or OHIO.
Congressman Milton Sayier, OF Ohio, then intro
dnccd and SAID Fellow citizens, appreciate to the
fullest extent the honor have addressing the demo-
Gratis OF New York; who hold in their hands the power
restore trade in the South ana freedom an op-
pressed people There hns been very little said this
campaign about finance free trade. rights 6i
have been two banners hoatca-rden, Hendricks
and reform, and Hayes, N hecIer md humbu gerry.
The latter party are hghtins on humbuyging basis,
and spread the idea that the election oil tho
democratic party wonld endarger The country last
evening MI Evnrts spoke TO the sod u.en, spoke
OF country being forced TO pay claims for land
which they had sacrificed 500 600 lives. Mr. Evarls
SAID The or the South demanded payment
Tor the entire losses of tho war ask.
when did the South demand any such payment? and
Evarts should also know that such payments con-
trary to the constitution. Alter alluding 10 several
cases OF claims presented TO Congress, the speaker
sald that when republican Congress voted $500
TO pay war claims, the last democratic Con-
grcss had only passed $65, ,00O-a fact
which should prove TO the people OF the
country the allacy OF any such theory. They speak
OF the solid South which will 20, hope solid tor
Ti.en and HeEdricks, and cleanse the country from
the rcekng corruption which the has
been stceped. IL remains with you gentlemen and II
you do your duty your Governor VIII be installed ia.
