Senator George i. Hoar Of Massachusetts
made another ringing speech q few days ago,
which is thus reported by the Boston travel
err:
He proceeded to q discussion of the South
ern question. The Southern white Democracy
he said, have successfully accomplished their
purpose of practically DISTINGUISHING the
black men of the South. and the forty-four
electoral votes representing that colored popu-
lation in the Electoral College are to be cast by
fraud and force, and without right, by the old
Southern white ~slave-holding Democracy.
There is not an intelligent man on this con-
tlnent that has the slightest idea that Grover
Cleveland could be declared President of the
United States, unless the votes Of Mississippi,
South Carolina, Florida, Louisiana and Vir-
ginia, forty in all, shall be counted in his IA
yor. There is not an intelligent man on this
continent who does not know that the votes of
every one Of those states would be given, IL
they could be freely cast, for The republican
candidate. Applause

pendent, and who proposes, by reason OF some
