To The Lecture Committee Of the Iron City Tilden
Club, Pittsburgh, Pa:
Please to communicate to your club my thanks
for their invitation TO attend the lecture Of Mr..
Hopkins though my engagements render it m.
possible to be PRESENT In 1876 the Democracy
achieved a victory in the name and for the sake
of reform Administration, which would restore
the Government. in spirit Snd substance as we'll
as FORM TO the benign character in which it was
created by our patriotic ancestors. They were
dei1auded of the fruits Of that victory by false
count OF the electoral votes That wrong casts
upon this generation the responsibility of a far
greater question The great duty is to vindiCate
the right Of the people to elective selfgovern-
ment. II the subversion of the elective system
proves successful and prosI erous, those who are
IN power ay count themselves in at every elec-
tiOn, and prolODg their dominion Indefinitely
Such a question ought TO be diveEted Of every
personal aspect. The wrongs to individuals be-
come insignificant in comparison with the crime
against The people, against free government, and
all the best hopes Of mankind.
