Logan Mr. BIaine's appearanee {

Logan Mr. Blaine's appearance on
the balcony was the signal for
an outburst of wild cheering, which was several
times renewed before he was formally intro
duced He chatted with invited guests on the
balcony for some time, but the calls became so
urgent that he had to step to the front again,
when ex-Congressman Butterworth pre-
sented him to the people as the
distinguished gentleman for whom they
intended to vote in November. There was tre-
mendous cheering with a few faint hisses com
ing from one particular point in the crowd. Mr..
Blaine gazed on the scene until there was some
approach to order, when he said:
"And no human voice could reach them because of
the great multitude thereof [Cheers | congratu
late the Republicans of Cincinnati upon their num-
bers upon their enthusiasm, upon their determine
tion to win. lrumultuous cheering. | thank them
for their kindness, their cordality and their hearth
As Mr.. Blaine stepped back the crowd cheered,
and yelled, and waved their hats, ana made all
kinds of enthusiastic demonstrations for several
minutes.
Mr. Butterworth then introduced General Lo-
gan as ar eminent statesman and Incompatible
soldier, who had never lost q battle and never
would lose one. General Logan's reception by
the people was similar to that of
MI. Blaine He remarked that if polls
were open tonight and all present voted the
Republican ticket the result of the election
would certainly be determined; then he went on
to say good word for the Republican State and
Congressional tickets When he came
to speak of the candidate for the presi-
dency, he was proceeding to describe
him in complimentary terms, when his voice was
drowned by cries of Blaine, Blaine James G.

was continuous tumult, composed of cheers,
shouts and band music, as the procession moved
along. Mrs. Logan was amoung the ladies on the
balcony, and she seemed to enjoy the scene
greatly The procession began to pass the Bur
net House at a few minutes before 10 o'clock,
moving at a swinging gait and the last company
passed two hours later
A SPEECH TO YOUNG MEN.

of his room and said:

OF the Republican party is in the young men of the
