THE BURNING QUESTION. 14-ia
ANGELICA, N. Y, Oct. 27.-At Salamanca
Mr.. Blaine spoke as follows: "rhe Amer
lean people never settled but one greu,
question in single Presidential election
There may be other issues, but there ].
always one that leads, and in the end
absorbs popular attention. The issue in
1854 is the-question OF a protective
tariff on the one side, against free
trade on the other side. Some
Republicans in the State 81 New York
have lett us because they are free traders.
They have acted wisely. [Laughter.1 II
they want free trade the proper thing ior
them TO do is to. Join the Democratic party,
but for those who want the protective
tariff continued the proper thing for them
is to adhere to the Republican party.
Cheers. ANY man who has decided con-
victions on the questions should remain
md abide with the Republican party. On
the other hand, any man who has decided
views in favor OF free trade will better
carry out these views by joining the Dem.

ONLY ONE ISSUE. p
There is no real issue but the, question
OF protection, and that other one which,
connects itself with it and becomes part
Fofit. Because the opponents OF the pro-
tectiye tariff, il they have any hopes OF
prevailing, hope to do it by solidi:ying
the vote OF the South and asking the men
OF Indiana and the men OF New York to
join them. Voices, ave won't do it."]
The question therefore, is whether you
are ready to take New York out OF the
great Gordon of States that were loyal dur
ing the war, and tie her to the solid Soutl,
in order that free trade may triumph over
protection. Cries OF .Good,n' and "Nev.

the issue any palmer than that l believe

New York will show she is not to be di-
verted by any side issue, (Cries of, "No

not be settled this year and which will
only tend to unsettlc other questions OF
great and transcendent Importance.
