of the state committee, appeared on the rear
platform. As he did so large body of men
came running out Of the shops and rushed
forward, shouting and cheering, to shake
hands with Mr.. Blaine. They were evidently
genuine working men, with bare breasts and
arms, and sweating and begrlmed faces.

hand, and said: Show are you boysH' The
men shouted back: ''Blaine, Blaine. We're
Blaine to man. Then they cheered again,
and the handshaking continued until the
train started.
Senator Plumb, of Kansas, was ON the
train when 1t arrived at Elyria at a quarter
before 2 O'Clock. The pretty little town was
crowded with its own citizens and people
from the surrounding country, and the jam
at the depot was so great that there was diff
ficuity in getting to the carriages, there was
a meeting in progress at the court house
square which was about to be addressed by
Secretary Window. When Mr.. Blaine got
upon the stand the people cheered him re-
peatedly. He was introduced by Mr.. c. W.

mittee, and he spoke as follows
''Mr. Chairman, ladies and gentlemen Of
the county of Lorraine: This is not my first
visit to your beautiful county. 1 recall with
great pleasure previous visit. when 1 was
met as cordially as l am to-day, and l knew
of your county years before / had the pleas
ure of seeing it, for who does not know of
the advanced stand and the great leader
ship which the county of Lorraine took in the
prolonged anti-slavery struggle. 1t was
your sturdy citizens and the great institution
at Oberlin that disseminated those princi-
Piles of freedom, which made this northwes-
tern country the vanguard in the contest
with slavery. That contest ended in victory,
and another is now committed to your
charge, and to-day in an emphatic sense to
the leadership Of Ohio. That is-al other
| questions laid aside-shall Americon labor
be protectedl During the tendency of the
anti-slavery struggle, there was no side
! issue that could divert the anti-slavery men
of the western reserve from the one great
| absorbing question, and l believe that the
same discipline of mind prevails now, and
that no side issue will be permitted to divert
you from the controlling question Of the cam
paign. l thank you, gentlemen, for your
reception and l consider that have only in
dicatedthe subject upon which others will
address you, while bid you a very cordial
farewell.
