PoRrsMogrH, Ohio. Dot. lo.-The re-
'eption at Chillioothe was elaborate and
artistic. The approach to the stand
was through an avenue of parallel lines
,f uniformed horsemeu. At the upper
snd OF this avenue were two rows of
<iris dressed in white. representing the
,tates OF the Unien, and holding up q
!eries OF green arches, beneath which
Blaine passed. Upon the stand were
,hree smaller girls, representing Maine,
and Ohio. Chillicothe was
represented by vans and indications of
he origin of the town were seen in an
number of horsemen and ne
groes taking part in the procession.
General Samuel H. Hurst made a brief
md exceptionally good introductory
peech, and the people received Blaine
Nth every demonstration Of enthusi-
ism. When he got an opportunity 70
peak, he said: From my school DAYS |
lave been familiar with Scioto valley,
md have heard much Of the rioh lands
i Paint Greek. Laughter and cheers.
am glad to see their inhabitants be-
ore me. / am glad TO see before me
his great representation of the aQricul-
ural portion of Ohio. ] am CLAD to
ecall to their minds this morning the
luty which the nation expects of them
text Tuesday. Your chairman has been
,leased to refer to six great contests in
which the Republican party has been
'ictorious. In the first Presidential |
contest in which the Republican party
vas engaged 1t was the vote of Ohio
hat gave strength to the legions that |
ollowed gallant young Fremont. Il |
vas the vote of Ohio in October, 1860, |
hat la large part secured Mr.. Lincoln's |
lection. 1t was the vote of Ohio In |
864 that secured q fresh victory to
oyalty and to the Union in the roar of |
'ivil war. 1t was the vote of October,
1858, that rewarded the great hero of |
be war with the Presidency, and re- |
'eated it ia 1872; and 1t was the vote of |
october. 1876, and October, 1880, that |
levated two Ohio statesmen to the
Residential chair. Applause.J Il re-
Mains to be seen whether the great |
sgions of Republicanism, whether the |
reat clans that have gathered upon the |
'laius and in the valleys of Ohio shall |
Iow be worsted in the encounter of |
tuesday next sNor ''Nor'l-whether |
q this seventh conflict for the great |
rinciples Of q great party you will |
your splendid record of q |
ears. ave willr' and cheers. Il is
DO late for argument; that has been ex-
austed. 1t is too late even for appeal;
hat has been addressed to you. There /
ow remains only your own sense of |
uty and yeur own loyal determine
ion. / thank you for this kind greet
ng, and commend you with all yeur en-
rgies TO the duty OF Tuesday next.

vas introduced. He made brief |
peech. presenting the protective tariff |
. the great issne and urging the impor-
ance Of the October vote In Ohio, as |
'earing upon that question and upon |

Fas 50 great and so enthuAiastic that il |
'roved difficult 10 get Blaine back to |
