Speech that Made Republican Votes.
\ UNloNTowN, Pa, September 3.-W. D.
Moore, OF Pittsburgh, and cx-Licutenant
Governor Latta addressed the meeting
here last night, which, as an opener for
the campaign in Fayette county, was
very tame nilair. Many decent Democrats
were disguised. One Of the faithful left
the room in the midst OF lIoore's spcec}l. |
declaring his intcntionoi voting for Blaine.
Moore rey .mped the Sentinel story and |
tried TO offend it. This so angered an.
other old-time Democrat, who was never
known to; falter, to announce that he
would vote for Blaine. To-day Patrick
Reagan, one oi the Democratic Central
Committeeman from Bullskin township,
openly declared for Blaine and Logan.
The Republican managers here would
very much like to hire Lawyer Moore TO
stump, the county for Cleveland and re.
cite for Blaine. '''5'' 4
