at length upon the different interests of
the East and West, and the perils that
would arise from free trade that would

sections and England than with the
manufacturing districts of the United
States.
This country has nothing to do with
promoting the interests of England, or
any other country, but when their
people come TO this land they are en-
titltd to all the protection this Govern.
ment can give them, and by the grace
OF God they must have 1t.
Suppose the tariff is removed, what
| will be the consequence The wages
OF the three million mechanics in this
country will have to be reduced no
much that they will be scarcely able to
provide their families with the neces

James g. Blaine.
Our Democratic friends will tell va
that Washington, Hamilton, Adams
and Clay were good enough men sl
their time, but things are now changed,
and there are different issues to be cen
sidered. They will tell you that what
we need now is reform; but can any one
hope Tor reform in the Democratic

with grander and nobler history than
