THE SPEECH OF Mr. Lynch, TEMPORARY
CHAIRMAN.
Mr. Lynch, on taking the chair, said
GENTLEMEN OF THE CoEvENTIoN-1
feel thar | ought not To say that thank
you for the distinguished honor that you
have conferred upon me, for | do not
Nevertheless, from the standpoint that
no patriot should fail to respond To his
countrY's call and that no loyal member
Of his party should fail to comply With
the demand of his party, yield with
reluctance to your decision, aud also of
the duties which you have assigned me.
Every member of this convention, who
approached Inc on this subject within the
last few hours, knows that this position
was neither expected nor desired by me.
1t, therefore, there is any such thing as
man having honors thrust upon hun,
you have an exemplification of it In this
instance. Laughter and applause /
came to this convention not for the pur-
pose of securing the defeat OF any man,
or the success of any nan. but for the
purpose of contribu'lng to the extent OF
my vote and my influence 10 make
Republican success in November next an
assured fact. [Cheers hope an be-
lIeve that the assembled wisdom OF tie
Republican party of This nation, through
its chosen representatives IN Ibis hall,
will SO shape its platform ard present
such candidates before the American
ieuple as III make i'll II victory beyond
q shadow of doubt. So far as the
candidates for the presidential nOm-
iDation are concerned, do
not wish any gentleman TO feel that my
election by your votes is an indication
of anything relative to the preference
of any candidate over another ! am
prepared, and hope that every member
OF this convention is prepared, to return
to his home with an unmietaka0le de-
Termination to give t. the candidates of
this convention royal and hearty sup
port whoever they may be. Cheers l
am satisfied in my own mind that when
we 60 before the people OF this country
our action will be ratified, because the
great heart of the American people
will never consent TO have 8 political
party gain the ascendency In this gov
erument, whose chief reliance is on
fraudulent ballot, and on violence at the
polls. Applause l am satisfied that
the people OF this country are too loyal
ever to allow Q man to be inaugurated
president of the United States whose
title TO the position is brought forth on
fraud / am satisfied that the American
people will ratlfy our action because
they VIII never consent TO have rev.
enue system for the government, other
than one that viii not only raise the
necessary revenue for its support, but
will also be sufficient to protect every
american citizen IN his business.
/ TCheers Gentlemen, not for myself,
bat perhaps IN obedience to custom, /
thank you for the honor you have con-
ierred upon me af
