Col. Powell, upon assuming the chair
said
Gentlemen of the Convention:
1t is with feelings of the deepest obi
cations [ thank you for the honor jus
conferred upon me. In return Ipromist
. to detain you only to congratulate yol
upon the auspicious manner in which WI
are about to enter upon this campaign
We are about to renew the old struggle
we are about To enter upon the. old fight
1t is one i'll which we have been SOM
times defrauded, often defeated. but nev
er subdued. The smoke of the last con
test has just cleared away. and here W.
are upon our feet again, fresh, fearless
and in this coming contest, I trust, in
vincible. The very cause for which w
fight gives US additional assurances o
success. Itis the cause of civil liberty
1t is the struggle to preserve free institu
tions. It is the struggle to preserve tn
States and their vested rights against th
proud spirit of Capitalization. To pre-
tect individual rights against encroach
ments Of corporate power. 1t is the ei
fort to re-establish the landmark of tn
Government of our fathers. To reaffirs
their teachings and their principles. T
replant the corner-stones of individua
rights and individual liberty. To thi
cause we present to-day united and de
termined party. Within our border
there are no factions and no dissention
Our rank and file is fired with enthus
asm and is full of hope and confidence
We ask for a nice, able and faithft
leader and then we can and will 90 fort
to take possession and govern the gret
State of Ohio.
Remember this Commonwealth
worthy of our highest and best exertion
No other State possesses such brilllar
record. We have a greater populatio
to-day than all the thirteen Colonies 20
sessed, when for the cause of liberty the
declared war against Great Britain, the
the greatest power on earth, and the al
solute mistress Of the high seas. Whe
Ohio was admitted into the Union,
was the 18th State. But by the INTEL
gence, enterprise and industry of ht
citizens, she has been rapidly brought u
until to-day she stands the Sd State i
the Union. In the great race of life, {
wealth, intelligence, prosperity, and pt
litical power, she has outrun and passe
fourteen of her sister States. She hs
already succeeded Virgin 10 and becom
the second mother of Presidents. Sll
has been both the cradle and nurse of ou
leading men in every branch and dt
partment of the public service. 1t is no'
an open question whether it is better t
be born great or to be born in Ohit
Whoever is born as our candidate to-da
