your assembling, and will no. perish
with the success or defeat ofthe candi-
dates you nominate. IL is eternal, a
divine fire burning IN the hearts of me n;
1t quickens the thought Of the statesman
moves the arm Of the soldier and doubles
the energy Of the toiler.
Four years ago the Democratic party,
in convention assembled at st. Louis,
announced TO the country its platform
and nominated as Its candidates two of
the foremost statesmen of the nation,
both then and now men worthy of the
most enthusiastic political devotion and
the most ardent private friendship.
And Samuel j. Tilden-[ [cheersl land
Thomas A. Hendricks were elected
President aud Vice President of the
United States, elected fairly as was
George Washington or James Monroe.
Ttat they were not inaugurated, that |
the Chief Magistrate of this nation has
for more than three years ben one |
whom the people and the electors re-
jected, that in the executive department |
government by the people" has ceased |
since March 4, 1877, is living moDu-
ment seen now of all men, and to be |
remembered in all generations OF the |
fraud of the Republican party, Of its i'll
fidelity to Republican principles, OF Its
willingness to sacrifice the right of popu-
lar election, that "vital principle Of re-
publics," rather than relax its hold upon
power, and of the loyalty Of the Demo-
cratic party, even to the forms of law, Of
its confidence that the will of the people
must finally prevail, abiding In which
| it patiently waits for the full fruition of
its hopes until March a, 1881.
But no longer, unless defeated at the
polls. If beaten fairly we shall submit.
| | repeat we shall submit and again
wait, but if again successful, no cum
| ming device of dishonest arbitration
shall deprive us of our rights. The
| Democratic party will never again ap-
pear before tribunal, falsely called, of
| Justice, a tribunal deaf to the appeal Of
testimony, tut not blind 10 the bec&on-
ing finger of favor.
But though we failed to inaugurate
our candidates, our cause was not,
even for moment, wholly lost. Ret
ributive justice visited without delay,
the immediate authors of this lnfamy.
The courts of Florida had thwarted
the conspirators who proposed the
theft of its State government, and the
stern refusal of the Democratic House
of Representatives to appropriate a
| man or a dollar to continue subjuga-
tion of South Carolina and Louisiana
soon forced the oppressor to relax his
grasp.
No trace now remains of the carpet
bag governments of the South except
the $l70,000,00 of increased public
debts they contrived in seven years of
misgovernment to heap upon it's i'm
poverished people. Yes, another trace
remains. Louisiana, entitled by the
constitution to two Senators, is repre-
sented by but one. The seat of the
, other is filled by delegate from IA
band of outla VS. never recognized as a
government, long since dispersed,
some to fatten upon the federal treas
ury and some to cat the bread of exile.
r (Cheers.)
, ELECT THE DEMOCRATIC TICKET.
The remedy, gentlemen, for this and
, for all other ills of State is in eterna
vigilance. This is at once the price
and the protector of liberty. Thii
vigilance already newly quickened
among the people from whom yor
come, continued here and hereafter, il
: sure to bring victory to the democratic
= | principle and the democratic candi
. dates, a victory so full of hope for thu
Republic that even the ''melanchol,
# days of November" shall be radiant
4 with Joy, and on the wings of The
/ strong winds of March shall be waited
/ blessings. Continued applause.)
