Atelllng and Ringing Speech
From the Present and Eu-
ture Governor.
EAST LIVERPOOL, o., Sep. 49,
When Governor HoadIy walked
into the monster skating rink in
this place this evening
and confronted an audience of prob
ably 5000 people, he was welcomed
by round after rouad of hearty ap.
plause. He wore q short cut al.
paca coat. In his left hand he car
ried hissscuhs and collar. Clutched
in his right hand he carried a copy
of the Cleveland Leader. From
that fountain of falsehood the Gov
ernor, after having been introduc-
ed. read the following;
IA STATEMENT MADE BY SENATOR
AID. FAwcETT.
cat Republican meeting al
Church Hill, Mahoning county,
Senator Fawcett said: when Ohio
Governors have been called upon
for soldiers by the properly consti-
tuted authorities, as d rule, they
have been sent there. and Govern
or Hoadiy has been no exception to
the rule. He even went farther
than any other Governor has ever
gone to enter in the suppression Of
labor. for when the Sheritfs of Per :
| ry aud Athens counties were pro
testing that they did not want SOL
diers. he sent military on the requi- :
ton of the Sheriff. of Hooking coun
| ty, alone, with orders that they
| might be used anywhere in the
Hooking Valley that the Sheriff
might direct" ,"
"That statement" began Govern
or Hoadly, in burst of eloquence,
'by whomsoever made, or by who M
sqever repeated, is false. During
the Hooking Valley strike no troops
were in Perry county or in Athens
county, exec pt on the railroad train
passing from one point IN Hooking
county to another, and the fact that
the Hooking Railroad in going from
Snake Hollow. whore the fight oc-
Cured which lead for the call of
troop in Hooking county and Sand
Run and Lengstrcth. .Murry City,also
in Hooking county runs through
Nelsonvi!!e, in Athenss county, is
what deceived Senator Fawcett, if
he has been deceived. At all events
Mr.. Fawcett admits that it was my
duty to furnish the troops upon the
call of the Sheriff of Hooking coun-
tv, but he failed to state that the
Sheriff called for $50 troops; thas
persuaded him 70 reduce bis order
10 three companies that the nnm-
her sent Was less than 120; that ono
of these was commanded by Cap
tain Teal, himself a miner In New
| Lexington. Perry COUNT; and it
| was at Captain Teal's instance that
the fourth company was ordered
the ne1t day. These troops we're
kept in the Hooking Valley between
three and four weeks, and until the
| Mine Inspector and the AGjutant
Geperai reported that all danger
was over. and they were recalled
afterward. The sheriff of Athers
county called for troops to be used
at Nelsonville, which I refused, be
! cause the town had ample authori-
ty to employ police TO project them
selves and their property from loss
and disorder. The Sheriff of Perry
county never called for troops, and
not a soldier was sent to that ctun-
ty."
The Governor then reviewed tho
mistakes of Sherman, which out
number, by an overwhelming ma
jority, the errors of any individual
known'to history. Mr.. Sherman's
attempt to paint Obioa deep cr,m-
son by Haunting over the State
some stained linen, came in for an
exhaustive rebuttal, and when the
speaker with considerable force, de-
ciared that this same Sherman who
ls engaged in refghting tho late war
had never even smei,ed the smoke
of battle, the audience went wild
and the large building echoed and
re echoed with applause. The Gov
ernors position on the liquor ques-
tinn was also discussed at length, af-
ter which the meeting adjourned
and Governor Hoadly left on q
special boat for Wellsville, where
he will speak Tomorrow afternoon.
