time and was received by large crowd, salute of
cannon, and similar demonstrations of welcome TO
those which it had met with at tho previous
stopping places. c.. II. Roys, president of
the Garfield and Arthur Club Of Lyons, Jumped
upon the platform as soon the train stopped, and
at once in his enthusiasm, began to introduce
General Garfield to his fellowcitzens. This was
not in the programme, 1t had been arranged that
the Lieutenant-Gove should make the public

Governor of the State. Mr. Roys introduced
General Garfield as /" the pride and the
boast Of the American people the hope OF our Nation,
and the next President of the United States" Three
cheers for Garfield followed, and were renewed
again and again by the ten or twelve hundred peo-
pie assembled, who seemed at one time disposed to
take up the whole time of the party's stay in enthu-
siastc shouts of welcome.
General Garfield briefly returned thanks for this
hearty greeting and the crowd then shouted. Lo-
gan Loganp 1t was explained that Senator Logan
was prevented by illness from being present., and
ex- Congressman Ortb. of Indiana delivered brief
speech, In which he spoke Of the warm greetings
which had marked General Garfeld's Journey and
said that they indicated that this was going to be
