cratic by $4,000, and two years ago by
$4,000 plurality, Ohio now gives $4,000
plurality for the lowest Republican state
candidate and on national issues $4,000
for Republican congressman.
Holding the state and local offices and
the whole machinery of elections the
Democrats scattered corruption money
with lavish hand, colonized voters,
imported professional repeaters and in
spite of the most strenuous efforts to
execute the law against them cast many
thousands of fraudent votes, Because
of this power they had chosen to stake
all upon that state, declared that it
would foreshadow the result in Novem-
Der and were strangely certain of sue
cess. They filed the air with SANDERS.
Local issues led many voters to disre-
gard national questions. Against such
odds magnificent victory is prophe-
cy of 10000 plurality fer Blaine and
Logan in November. With the ratio of
gain in other States it foreshadows an
increase of 100000 in the Republican
national vote and the largest popular
majority ever given any candidate.
These victories show the determination
of the people that as Lincoln, Grant
and Garfield were slandered in vain, so
the foremost statesman of to-day shall
not be driven from the peoples work
by the lounge of malice. They show
that the Republican party which was
the first to resist and uproot the dogma
of perpetual allegiance" to foreign
power is chosen by the nation to defend
all the rights of American citizens a.
broad. They show that SO long as the
Democratic party rests all hope of sue
cess upon denial of free suffrage in the
Southern states, it will ask in vain the
confidence of any state where free
vote is recorded by honest count. They
show that people will not abandon the
protection of American industry, under
which the country has gained twice as
much in twenty years as it had gained
in all its previous history. The protec-
ton Of American labor, which has lif-
ted wages So per cent higher here than
in England. The people see what stag
nation the Democratic "first firm step
towards free trade" has caused in the
past year. Nine months ago, flushed
with victory and Boosting of certain
success, the Democrats made no secret
of their blind adherence to the British
theories of free trade. Now neither its
deceitful platform nor the dumb candi
avails to check the stampede from thai
party, for its voters know that protec
ton has made the rewards of labor
greater here than III other land on earth
The national committee appeals to the
people to make the victory decisive. L
is no time for over confidence or fol
neglect of any proper effort. Bare
success is not enough. 1t is time to pu
an end to the agitation by which thu
Democratic party prostrates business
every four years.
The grandest part of the grandes
history ever made py any nation is thu
work of the Republican party. 1t rest
with you, Republicans of the nation, tt
carry forward the work which you ant
your fathers have begun, and to whicl
so many brave and faithful men hav,
given up their precious lives that tn
government of the people, by the PEG
pie and for the people shall be mai
, tanned.
