THE MEETING AT WARREN.
WARREN, O., Sept 2S.-There was a great
crowd in attendance at the Republican mass
meeting here to-day. all the surrounding towns
sending large delegations. Gems. Grant, Lo-
gan, Simon Cameron and Others arrived this
forenoon and were given an enthusiastic
reception. A procession escorted the distin-
guished orators to the wlewam, which was
speedily filed, and two overhowing meetings
organized outside. Gen. Grant was Introduced
as president of the main mee ting and said:
Ladies and Gents-I hope we may be able to
have quiet and order here. 1t is not important
so far as anything that will have to say TO
you is concerned, because I shall not be able to
make many of you hear, but after me comes q
speaker whom know you will all be glad to
hear, and you can do SO by keeping quiet
and orderly. Not being accustomed to speak
ing publicly, l have drawn off few words that
l will say in advance of the gentleman who is
to follow me. (Taking roll of manuscript
from his pocket, the general read In view
of the known character and ability of the
speaker who is to address You to day, and his long
public career and association with the leading
statesmen of the country for the past twenty
years, it would not be becoming in me to de-
tain you with many remarks of my own. but
it may be proper tor me to account to you on
the first occasion of my presiding at political
meeting for the faith that is in me-" 1 am
Republican as the live great political parties
are now divided, because the Republican party
is a national party, seeking the greatest good
of the greatest numbers of its citizens. There
is not precinct, IN this vast
nation where Democrat cannot
cast his ballot and have it counted cast
matter what the predominance of the opposite
party. He can proclaim his political opinions,
even if he is only one among a thousand with
out fear and without prescription on account of
of his opinion. There are fourteen States, and
localities in some others, where Republicans
have not this privilege. This is one reason
why am Republican. But am Republi-
can for many other reasons. The Republican
party assumes protection to life, property,
public credit and the payment of the debts
of the government, State, county or munich
pality so far as it can control. The Democratic
party does not promise this. If it does
it has broken its promise to the extent of
hundreds of millions many Northern Dem
oerats can testify to their sorrow. am Re-
publican as between existing parties because
it fosters production of the field and farm, and
of manufactures and it encourages the gen.
eral education OF the poor as we'll al the rich.
The Democratic party discourages all these
when in absolute power. The Republican
party is a party of progress, of liberaity
towards it's opponents. 1t encourages the
poor to strive to better their condition the gnor
ant to educate their children to enable them to
compete successfully with their more fortunate
associates and in fine it secures entire
equality before the law of every citizen, no
matter what his race. nationality or previous
tAia oloc
Everyone has the opportunity to make himself
all he is capable of.
Ladies and gentlemen do you believe this can
be truthfully said in the greater part of four
teen of the states of this union to-day whom
the Democratic party control absolutely?
The Republican party is party of principles,
the same principles prevailing wherever IL has
foot hold. The Democrats are united in Ebut
one thing, and that is in getting control
of the government in all It's branches. 1t is
for internal improvement at the expense of the
government in one section and against this in
another 1t favors repudiation of solemn obli-
cations in one section, and honest payment of
its debt in another (where public opinion will
not tolerate any other view.) 1t favors fat
money in one place and good money in another.
Finally, it favOrs tbs pooling of all issues not
favored by the Republicans, to the end that it
may secure the one principle upon which the
party is most harmonious unit, namely,
its branches. l have been in some parts
of every State lately liz rebellion within the
last year. l was most Hospitality received at
every place l stopped. my receptions were
not by the union class alone. bu t by all classes
without distinction. l had free talk with
many who were against us ia the war, and who
have been against the Republican party ever
since. They We're in all instances reasonable
men, Judged by what they said I believed
them, and believe now that they sincerely
want break upon this solid South political
condition They see that it is to their pecuniary
interest rs we'll to their happiness that
there should be harmony and confidence be-
tween all sections. They want to break away
from the slavery which binds them to a party
name. They want pretext that enough of
them can unite upon to make it respectable.
Once started the solid South will go as Ku-
klukism before, and as is so admirably told by
| Judge Tourgee in his "FooPs Errand." When
the break comes those who start it will be
surprised to find how many of
| their friends have been in favor of it for a
long time, and have only been
| waiting to see some one take the lead. This
| desirable solution can only be obtained by the
| defeat and continued defeat of the Democratic
| party as now constituted.
