JACKSON, Mich, Oct. 1S.-Mr. Blaine left
Detroit at $3.50 this morning by special train
on the Michigan Central railroad This Is
the last day of his tour in Michigan, and he
will spend Sunday at South Bend, Ind
The first stop this morning was at Ann Ar
Dor, where the most remarkable scene of the
trip occurred. There was very large crowd
about the depot but the students of the uni
versity of Michigan seemed to have taken
possession, and when Mr. Blaine appeared
their cheering aud yelling were
SO hearty, loud and long
continued they seemed likely to occupy the
whole time the train could remain at Ann
Arbor. All attempts Of the local committee
men to get hearing were utter failures
But when Mr.. Blaine stretched out his hand,
indicating he was about to speak, the noise
subsidized. He began his little speech by say
ing:
During the war we used to hear about the
rebel yell, which was supposed to imply great
vigor and determination, but it seems
to me the young men who do me
the honor TO appear here to-day could have
terrified the whole army of Lee.
Mr.. Blaine then spoke at some length on
the responsibilities of educated young men,
and left with students the problem, why are
so many college men free traders at twenty
are protectonists at forty
DowAGIAC, Oct. 1S.-There was an enor-
nous crowd here when the train arrived.
When Mr. Blaine stepped out on flat car.
