Judge Foraker for saying that they were
lawless and troublesome set. ! hardl
think Judge Foraker was responsible 70
il, as the information was handed him b,
Mr.. Swan, OF Toledo.
He then cited two townships in Auglais
county with large Democratic msjoEitie
and many saloons, but with no lawlesa
ness. He then asked again:
Judge Foraker: Are you for or agains
prohibition You have another hal
hour to answer in, and you can surel!
answer in that time Ia voice-what do yoI
think OF it. l am against it, ana l an
also agsinst the bloody shirt. There hav,
been two sermons on the Monnt lately
one from Mt. Gregor and one from Mt
Gilead. The one full OF love and peace
aud the other full Of hate and war agains
one.half OF the people--ths one on Noun
MCGregor, the other at Mount Gilead.
am for Grant and against Sherman.
Referring to Lieutenant Mullen, he sait
what the Republicans wanted was to al
the negro barracks and chop houses on th'
public landing with repeaters from Ken
tucky.
AS TO STATE AFFAIRS,
he said the expenses Of the ordinary ad
ministration OF the State the last two
years was $4,000 less than Fosters las
two years. AS to the legislative fraud in
the election Of Payne, he said the only
testimony Of fraud in that election point.
to those who were the friends Of Other
candidates.
As to the last Legislature, they gave
civil rights to the colored men. Demo.
Gratis gave the colored man the right Ia
testify In court. Democrats gave them
the repeal Of the Black laws. / nav not
get their votes, but know enough to do
the Colored man justice. The last LeHis.
latnre did away with the scrip business
that was burdening the miners. They
provided for fire escapes in factories; for
seats for women in stores; for the settle
ment oil all labor disputes by arbitration
for more mine inspectors. They extended
the work Of the geological survey, and |
appointed Judge Taft's brother-in.law,
Edward Orion, agood Republican, to take
charge OF the work; l did this, perhaps,
because Republican knows more about
burrowingin=the ground than Democrats
do. You never heard OF any steal in the
last Legislature. 1t was said they would
steal the canals, but they still are ours.
1t was said they would steal the Cincin.
matt water works, but we still have them.
The reiunding scheme was killed by me
after advice was given by the best fiaan-
ciers in Cincinnati. AS to giving positions
to soldiers, there ara more soldiers in Office
under me twice over than under any Re-
publican administration. The States pfi.
son, under Democratic management, had
not made any money, but convict contract
labor had been abolished. It is impossi-
BILE to change from the contract system TO
the system OF State account, and make
money during the change. The piece
price plan is better than the contract sys.
tenn for two reasons. 1t furnishes more
accurate information on which to blse
State accounts, and secondly it gives the
State more control over the men aud bet
ter chance for humane.treatment. We
have put OHIO In the front OF prison re.
form States. Now my time Is about up,
and | wish 70 say only one thing more. I
want Judge Foraker to toll us s,whether or
not he is for or against prohibition.
Judge Hoadly devoted good deal OF
time to neutrality-suspicious. from tho audi
ence. There was no chance given Foraker
or Hoadly for argument. Confusion and
by the audience were con-
tinual. Tumultuous cheering followed his
close.
soNR oP noADLY'S MISTAKES,
When quiet was restored, Judge Foraker
said Governor Hoadly began by admitting
that he had made mistake at Toledo by
saying Lincoln died a Democrat. He
wished to say that 1t was just as much a
mistake to say Seward died Democrat.
The mistake arose perhaps from the same
while Lincoln was killed by a
Democrat, Seward was almost killed by
another Democrat at the same time.
Referring TO Auglaise county, which
Governor Hoadly has referred to as con-
tanning model township, Judge Foraker
said: was in AuglaiBs county two years
ago, aud was told OF that township that
while it had the saloons and the Demo.
Gratis Of which the Governorspeaks, 1t also
had not single solitary school house,
Cheering and laughter
He read nots sent him by a man in
the audience who lived in Auglaise
county, saying that that township had
more drunkenness and violation Of law
than any township In tho county. Re-
ferring to Governor Hoadly's champion
ship OF the colored race he asked:
How he could reconcile with that friend
ship what he had done for this man Null
len, who perpetrated an outrage on
Colored people at the last election? How
could Judge Hoadly be silent, II he is the
friend Of the colored race, when he knows
that colored men south OF the Ohio river
are prohibited from voting?
The question being frequently asked by
persons In the audienceI "How about
prohibitiouY' Judge Foraker said:
told you in the outset that the Repub.
lican party is in favor oil taxation and
and opposed 10 the nonsense
OF being in favor OF what cannot be ac-
1t Is in favor OF the practical.
/ have not felt called on 10 reply to the
Governor Hoadly has made by
to the appetite and the lowest
appetite. Governor Holdiy does not
understand the men OF the German wards
II he hopes to Win their favor by catering
10 an appetite or passion,
In conclusion let me say; Twenty years
ago went soldering with the Germans Of
these wards, and know they appreciate
the elements OF this country's greatness.
They have learned the demagogy and
Of the 80 called "old sUmptuary"
cry.
The meeting closed With mingled cheers
for Foraker aud Hosdly.
