Of Kim and to hear a word from his life. Near
~ all his speeches were brief and mostly with
out reference to politics; but on a few occasions
he referred to the pending canvass.
At Toledo he said: / should at any time
deem it Improbable to speak disrespectfully
of political opponents. Ishouldil my present
position, deem it altogether improper. Iwolld
rather be the victim of SANDER than the author
Of itTgreat cheeringl But there are some things
which, do not deem u~nbecoming tome, holding
the position 4 do, to call your attention to. The
Republican party has governed the country
for twenty-four years in the spirit and accord
ing to the measures Of a broad nationality.
The progress under our government IN that
spirit has far transcribed the progress made
in all the previous years Of the nations history.
[Applause.l To remand the government now
to the control of our opponents, who do not be-
heye in the cOnstitutionality of the measures
which have given this progress, would be q
stem backward into che dark lAnnlansa and
shouts OF Correct n When We argue the
question Of a protective tariff, We are not per-
mitted to regard it merely as one to be set
tied on the basis Of expediency, because the
large majority of our opponents hold q pro-
tectiye tariff to be unconstitutionaL. There is
not one great measure that the Republican
party has adopted nor one great step the party
has taken since the Inauguration OF Abraham
Lincoln in 1861, that the Democratic party has
not opposed and has not considered unconsti-
tutionaL So that to-day TO- remand the gov
eminent Of the United States to the control of
the Democracy is not merely an ordinary
change of parties; it is atotal reversal of the
policy that has distinguished the government
Of the United states since 1861. [Renewed APP
plause.1 1t is giving to the narrowing dogma
OF states rights the precedence III the grand
march which has been made, and which could
only be made, under the banner Of q broad
nationality IssThat's right It il on that
great plane that the Republican party has done
me the honor to present me as a candidate be-
fore yorL Applause. / II u on mat plane,
with all that ii implies. that / am before you
and before all the peoplo Of the United States
to-day. Enthusiastic cheering
AT Hamilton, he spoke more at LENGTH a. fol
lows:
Citizens Of Ohio: It is now forty years since
the question of a protective tariff engaged the
attention Of the American people as profound
ly as 1t does to-day. 1t was in the contest be-
tween Mr.. Clay and Polk, in 1S44. that the great
national debate on this question took place, and
the protective tariff was defeated, not by the
popular vote, but by the bad faith OF the party
which succeeded Ia the election: and I beg to
| call your attention to the fact That the policy of
protecting American industry has never been
defeated In the United States by popular vote.
A contrary policy has been forced on the PEG,
their representatives; but never, i repeat, by
| popular vote upon q deliberate appeal TO the
| people in their primary capacity, 1t there's
fore would seem to be the duty 0f
the people OF the United States, If q majority
Of them believe Ia the policy Of protection, 70
see 70 ii that that party is sustained which car
be trusted to uphold it [Cheers1 ssYes, but
