DELAWARE AND TaE SOLID sOUvA.
The speaker went on to make An ap-
plication of the experience in voting in
Delaware, to that in the Solid South.
Delaware Is q part Of that solidity. To.
nigat We discuss whether these people
shall vote for Garfield and Arth1r,
and before any one can cast
tha majority of one fer Garfield
the party will first have had
to east 1900 votes, to make up for
those disfrsnchised. 1t Is so through
the whole South. 1t is solid, We may
carry Florida. tApplauss.l The same
system holds you in its thral lom. It 10
based not as in Delaware on fraud
alone-but on fraud and force. 1t was
solid in slavery before the war, and
DOW solid on the subordinatien OF the
freemen. Remembering the struggle
of the war, tie bloody issuss, the mil
lions of treasure lest and the brave
men killed, it is wise that we have de-
cided that the South may govern
itself but not govern us. [wild
applause The system Of Presi-
dent Hayes will be the system
of General Garfield, with reference to
the south and il YES I'D one. We
mean no harm to any one but equal
rights to all men.
The present prosperity is being felt
in our city to great extent. Tramps
have disappeared, factories are busy,
railroads are overrun with traffic,
stocks gone up, real estate has assumed
its proper value and a house ia seeking
every vacant lot in town. What has
caused this Resumption of specie pay
msnt. [Applause.l And it was the
Republican party which brought it
about. The attitude Of the Democrats
party upon this question was held
up 10 ridicule, and it was shown that
Senator Bayard's stand in 1879 on the
act to strengthen the public credit; on
the act to pay the National debt at q
lower rate Of interest, and with refer
snoe to National Banks, the very cor.
ner stone to National credit, has always
been hostile.
BAYARB AND DEMOCRACY.
The lack of harmony between Sena-
or Bayard and his party on finances of
ater years was alluded to, and point
made that during the pendenoy OF the |
Warner Silver Bill" the defeat Of
iensral Ewing in Ohio was all that
the Senator from being
.eposed from Craftsmanship of the Fl
lance Committee. What shall say to
gentleman who sticks to his party
hen it deserts him thus. Why Han
