would not before high heaven do so after ,uch stupendous fraud as that perpetrated

would not before high heaven do so after such stupendous fraud as that perpetrated by the Democratic party. Loud cheers).
 The speaker then proceeded to notice the money issued by the government at the out break of the rebellion. He said while these State notes were in circulation they could not pay the debts of the national government. We could not pay the soldiers with them, and so we taxed State bank paper money until we drove it out of existence, and we have no more State rights money. You get this tax repealed and you will again see the country flooded with worthless money. We'll, the national banks were organized and no better system has ever been constituted. The notes of all national banks are good everywhere and will be redeemed And since the re- sumption of specie payments it is good all over the world
 Let us take up another question. There are foreigners in New Haven and the presi- dent of your great college (cheers) has no more aights..tha any other foreigner. The very moment we showed in the war we were @ nation your naturalization papers were respected by Great Britain and Germany and in fact are now respected all over the world. The Republican party takes it's position bold ly, tries to find out what is right and then stands boldly for the right. "The tariff for revenue o9oEy' in the Democratic platform was next considered. He said the idea of that plank was to get all the money they can Oub OI bu6 p6Op10 duu IAeA SDOuu 1G dS Qu1Ck1y as they. The Republican party on the other hand proposes to discriminate in favor of American industry. It is benef- cial to the mechanic, it is better for the farmer, it is better for all It has given you great diversity of employment, and we are now able to compete with the markets of the world. This doctrine of protection is not for the benefit of manufacturers or wealthy men alone, but it is benefit to workingmen as we'll By protection you are able to get fair pay for your labor. Under the benign policy of the Republican party 800, 900 emigrants have come to our shores during the past year to add to Democratic party will do better. Why, my countrymen, all the protection you have has been given you by the Republican party. This system of protective laws which has built up the cities in the East has been given through the Republican party. You is not even the hair on the tail Of the dog. The South rules him and the rest of the Democratic party. The Republican party, who had tried to obtain homestead law, could not accomplish this great act until they obtained Republican Congress and Republican President, Abraham Lincoln. TCheers.1 The Republican party has been able to cope with all the great questions It has been able to put down great rebellion and established the public credit. When the Republican party came into power our nation was fading, fading away, and but for the power of that party twould now be with the republics of Greece and Rome. The resumption of specie payments was Repub ican measure, as all measures for
 the interest of the people have been. The only measure introduced by the Democratic party was the one withdrawing protection of the people at the polls, and that act President Hayes vetoed and you approved. (Cheers.) So my countrymen we launched, the ship of resumption on the ocean, and who ask re- grets it to day?
 The speaker then referred to 8 statement made by General Ewing that the gold in the treasury was phantom and, said the speaker, Congress sent a commit tee to count it. They counted one day and found $S, GOO, 900, and then they were polite p. m., the treasury vaults must be closed and the guard placed on duty. They were in vited to continue their count the next day, but finding it would take ten days to finish the job they gave it up and arrived at the sensi- ble conclusion that the gold in the valuts was not phantom" gold, but genuine double eagles. So on the second of January, the first falling on Sunday, everybody was in- vited to come and get gold for greenbacks. Nobody came ,and to day United States notes are worth more than gold. This paper money which was depreciated three years ago is now at premium in China and all over the world. Prosperity has come in an unbounded stream and gold flows in upon us from all parts of the world. Now they tell Providence did it all. Well I know that Providence did not pass the resumption act ; the Republican par recorded in the vote of the '' Demo. no. cratic party against it. believe, however, that Providence has smiled upon the work of the Republican party The great nofinno1 1oIt ic 1ooIfi5a1, 1-o &bo before the morning sun. A year after the passage of that act the Secretary of the Treasury authorized to sell four and a half per cent. bonds, and in this way the tional debt was immensely reduced. Then the four per cent. bonds were issued as a popular loan and in sixty days $75, ,OOO, ,OOO of the bonds were disposed of to the people. Then after the resumption act took effect 0,000, 900 of these bonds were disposed of and the public debt was still farther re- duced. Senator Eaton talks about changes in the books of the Treasury Can he point to single instance of dishonesty by the present administration Not one. The loss under Hayes administration has been only one-third of one per cent. on one thousand dollars. (Cheers.) Now tax of one dollar on gallon of whisky would pay the interest on the national debt. Yet 1t would hardly be fair to put it so, as I fear the Democratic party would have to pay more than their 0A"AO' ANAASe1O ShCOI1HS-J NOWs 1o11O" countrymen, in this hour of our prosperity it IS proposed to turn over this government to the Democratic party. No, no, my country men, 1t must not be done, and you, my Dem ocratlc friends, should remember that your interests are involved and imperiled by such change. You business men must remember that on next Tuesday you are to fight the battles of your country. My voice will be hushed and gone, but you should at the bal lot box on next Tuesday do your duty With solid North let us respond to the appeal of the solid South. While we believe this is nation they of the South think otherwise.
 will not say anything unkind of General Hancock. He was brave soldier but where as he once led the boys in blue he now leads the boys in gray. I will say nothing ill of him. But in General James A. Garfield YOU have an honest and true man. (Great cheering The speaker here referred briefly to the life of General Garfield, and then he said: While General Garfield has been praised by Demo- crats previous to his nomination he is now v1lifed and even forgery, the meanest of all, is resorted to to defeat his election He is a Republican, tried and true, patriotic and honest, and under his able administration the country will continue to grow and prosper.
 When the speaker concluded his address loud cheers greeted him. and then Mir. Dewell proposed three cheers for the honored speaker'of of the evening which were given with will.
 MT. Fowler announced that the collection for the family of A. L. Bradley amounted to S1SO.5 and the meeting was adjourned.
