ing that has made Us what we are as

Of the practice. He told The story

Lieutenant Governor Iloskins in
troduccd the candidate. saying:
Fellow citizens: The fact that
Rochester has turned out 50 magnit-
icently 20 greet General Garfield in
the early morning rencws my conf
dence that in the fall the great Em-
pre- state will not fail to do her
share toward his election, and that
his election is an assured fact No
one who witnessed the enthusiasm
at Buffalo last night can Tor a mo-
ment call in question that such
heartincss manifested so early in the
campaign cannot but be considered
the harbingcr OF victory But, Icl-
low-citizcns, ! must nor Gctaln you,
for the train tarrics but a moment.
Permit me to introduce to you Gen
eral James A. Garfield Of Ohio.

iof Congress, or his predecessor, glor-
ious little Phil Sheridan, a pure rep
