with which he began. He proposed. he said to give
his opinion Of the of the defeat. He said

went to tell what these were and described the
manner in which , they combined: They 10 claimed to

ceved with applause. Mr.. Kelly explained
rank and ale The misfortune Of local politics he
said. that the question Of natonalities entered
into the canvass This should not be SO. All men
who vote here American citizens as Mr.. Kelly
understood 1t. Three cheers greeted this PROPOSE

ment of q district without regard to whether

man upon particular ticket to court the votes of his
countrymen. With grim hnmor Mr.; Kelly remarked

Arthur exercised just as despotic power as
it was possible for one man to WELD in
the selection of candidates and yet the press and
the public had SGT up no howl about one-nan power
in his case. Stand by your organizaton" was the
advice which Mr.. Kelly gave his hearers ''or-
ganize stronger in your districts than ever be-
fore, get strong men as you can find
in your respective localities. make up your
committees stronger stand by the party and you may
depend upon it that at the next coming election
will achieve a victory in this city the like Of which
has not been since the organization Of the demo-
cratic party. (Applausc.)
