Special to the Star
THURMAN AT HAMILTON.
HAMILTON, O., Aug. 14.-Large numbers
of people took advantage Of the fine wealth
er to come to town yesterday and hear the
address of Senator Thurman. His speech,
which was well received and heartily ap-
plauded, was followed by addresses from
Hon. John f. Folleit, Hon. Milton Sayler,
and Hon. John Mcmahon. A letter was
received from Governor Bishop, regretting
his inability to be present, and exhOrtng
the Democracy to arouse themselves to the
duties of the hour.
EASTERN COMMENTS ON THURMAN's SPEECH.
New York, Aug. 14.-The Herald says:
In one respect Senator Thurman's speech
really strikes the keynote of the campaign.
1t means an attack upon the National Bank
ing system, but in the interest of farmers,
work ingmen and producers everywhere.
We must say we prefer such Democrats as
Bayard and Seymour to such Democrats
as Thurman.
The Times says: We can only say that if
Thurmans arguments for sound currency
must be read in favor of popular Legal
tender Government paper, then he has been
far weaker man than we had supposed.
But consistent or not, his present doctrine
is big with danger.
The Tribune says: Two classes Of people
we're supposed to hear Thurman S assurance
that he has always been a soft-money man
first, hard-money men; second, soft-money
men.
The World prints Thurman's speech in
full, without argument.
The Sun says: Thurman in beginning re-
marks very appropriately that under free
institutions it is for the people to give the
keynote He thinks the Republicans
have been in power too long. So do we,
four years too long and very much through
the instrumentality of the Hon. Allen G.
Thurman.
The Star says: Our radical community
will assail Thurman, as is their habit, with
shafts of rather feeble and blunted wit
The, will not undertake to meet his sober
and lucid arguments fairly, for the best OF
all reasons; because they can not.
