OBERLIS, O., Sept. ga great audience
assembled here to greet Blaine. There
was a passage way from the train to the
stand guarded by uniformed clubs.
Blaine's appearance was the signal for
cheering. He said: 81 don't know any
more appropriate thing for the candidate
who represents Republican principles than
to pay a visit to Oberlin; for if there be
any one place in the United States above
another, where Republican principles were
planted originally, and nurtured and de-
veloped, and strengthened intofull growth,
it is Oberlin, applause |, by the establish
ment of this college so years to-day. The
radicalism, if you please, which it taught
from its start, the great battle it waged
and the immense success 1T attained with
out donation from the national or State
government, but merely from generous
and benevolent men, who believed in the
principles it represented, mark it as an
| event not merely in the educational world,
but in the political world as well, and |
am glad to stand here to paw my tribute
" tAAb . a. W
edge as a representative, as | am, for the

this great audience. / thank you because
l know what it represents and because l
know that you know what l represent. En-
thusiastio cheering.
