There was much excitement in the House in
the Massachusetts delegaio ion at the announcement OF
the defeat Of Simmons and the nomination of Beard.

mean business and so do They will got to the sea-

They can get there by the Baltimore and OHIO Railroad
300 miles nearer than by any other line OF
communication. Tile simple question Is. shall we
mako 1t cheaper To come by our wayi We can and
promise you Will. The people OF the State demand it,
for the public benefit, ard not for private gain. The
right of way through them - the right Of tn Million
aud not OF particular interest. Tho people are
cregn and, sovereign, they hold trust that which

They nave seen enough. aud experienced enough, OF

West and holding II, have no hesitation In asserting
that they will not yield 1t to any power the EARTH
but that they will keep that which their ancestors
quired through their energy and foresight sacred
trust anu power forever. They will make the Erie
Canal n highway OF their own, free as the
trackess ocean, open TO all the world and Will say
the great West through this channel may pour
