a year ago IN the great struggle NJ n

al the election OF the Chief Executive Of
the United States, we were advised b'
our political opponents that the elestlOn
0ta Democratic President would bring
disaster ard rnln 10 the hn.lnesS inter.
eats OF tha 0untry: we were advised and
told that the advent Of the d mOctatlr
party 10 control Of the Government WA
Intended and would result Ia tearing
down rather than building up the waste
plnces. We have lived to see the hnOn
accomplished, and we have nj this time

Ia form such M has been prom aed IN
yOn for yeara by the Republican party,
but never achieved,
remember just after tho war closed,
In Congress OF tho United states, when
Nr. Stevens rose IN his place and DO.
manded that tho eleven seeding States

aided ny the few Democratic defeated the
measure Mr. Stevens thought only
twenty years was necessary. Those
twenty years have passed and these peo.
ple Bre again brought up 10 be treated,

ufacturlng people. that there hns with
10 the laat twelve months gone into the
Southern States 1ity million OF money
that has been invested In manufactur
Ing establishments and In the develop.
ment OF the resources OF that section.
THE rARHH SCARF.
We are advised that the tariff IL In
danger; that there are great Industrial
establishments that will be killed; but
one OF the things that has come along
with the Democratic administration has
been n revival OF trade all over the coun.
try. Not q boom, for booms are not
healthful, but II 10 q eteady improve.
mont In the markets OF commerce aud
In the manufacturing establishments OF
this State, and various other States
whore such establishments are located,
No, cir, | want 10 say 10 you that
tho tariff haa nothing 10 do with this
struggle and they who would attempt 10
thrust II into this Issue at thia time are
obetructlonists 10 any party, The tariff
Ia business question, and II we had
more businese about II aud less politics
there would DO Q more permanent law
made. and that 10 what tho peo.
pie engaged In those pursuits
want more than all other thinge. That
la they want stability. They want 10
know from week 10 week and month 10
month what they oan depend upon. The
Republican party declared for tho revls.
ion OF the tariff and for tho reduction OF
the surplus. The Democratic party In
like manner declared for tho revision OF
the tarlff, but went further, and sci
forth the manner In which that revia'
ion should take place. DO you suppose
for y moment that tho great Democratic
party Of this country IL going 10 do any
thing 10 injuro those who form lts mem
bershlpp Nay, more, | desire TO eay thai
there Ia no party in the United States
competent TO destroy the prosperity o.
tho country. Tho great people hav,
