Mr.. l.. c. Thackery, Of Cecil county, was
introduced. He said:
Eight and-twen,y years ago, under I'M
favorable circumstances, the Republican
party made its first domination. 1t was not
until 1861 that it succeeded in placing in
the Presidential chair a man who repre-
scented its principles. Since then it has had
full control of the government. 1t has
given the nation the brightest page of its
history. 1t has wiped out slavery; oblit-
Grated secession. IL maintained the Union
saved the honor of the land. 1t resumed
specie paym ent and ended intla ton. 1t will
uphold the dignity of American labor
That party which has done all this asks us
to rededicate ourselves to it, presenting to
us for our vote that prince of parliamentari,
ans, that leader of leaders whom all good
men will support-.Iames &. Blaine. lGreat
Applause. The Democrats say they will
put us on the defensive. But the Republi-
can party is nothing i: not aggressive.
Within month or six weeks you will find
every Democrat paper from Maine to Cal.
crying out and begging us to spare them.
Laughter The Republican party has
formulated its platform. Everybody knows
what it is. The Democratic party has not
yet made its platform. Nobody knows
what it is going to be. Laughter. Aud
l venture to say when it is made nobody
will know what it means. Great laughter
and applause. AS to Mr. Blaine, nobody
says that he is an angel dwelling in the Sc
rene atmosphere of perfect holiness; but
when we remem Der how he has fought down
the calumnies of his enemies, we can say
to the Bourbons of Democracy James g.
Blaine is not the man to be put upon the
defensive. Applause. Tonight simply
wish to express my sincere opinion that
Mr. Blaine and Mr.. Logan are able to com
maud the majority of the votes of the citi-
zens of America. lApplause.] I am come
from my home to this Republican expert
encemeetins to say that it is well with us
over in old Cecil. While some of us did
prefer another candidate nevertheless we
all bow TO the will of the majority. Ap-
plause. Talk about stalwarts and half
breeds; the old guard always wheels into
line in the presence of the enemy. APP
planse. The old guard may die it never
surrenders. Applause 1t never bolts;
never stabs the ticket: never can be ac-
cused of treachery. Applause. A Balt-
more Democratic daily says that the old
guard is dead. Applause. GA the 4th Of
next November the old guard will be found
in the thickest of The fray" Prolonged
applause
Speeches were also mad. by Hon. VIM.
