so do we. But II they denounce the swift
treaty, which we indorse, they denounce the
only treaty that gives us any relief-that of eX-
Guiding this worthless horde. If they wish TO
stand on that proposltion-against the Testora-
ton to us of the Legislative power as against the
Chinese-then We are for the man who set aside
those stipulation, so as 10 enable the people of
this coast to petition Congress for relief from
this evil. Applause.l Ii in mentioning the
BuGlingame-Sw treaty III their Platform. they
only intended to denounce the Burliugame
treaty, then
CHARGE THEM WITH DISHONESTY,
With attempting to deceive the people Swift
was the man who expressly secured partial
abrogation of that treaty-an that was in his
power to do. When Garfield came before the
country as candidate for President the same
cry came from the Democracy. 1t plainly
demonstrates the difference between the Demo
cratic and Republican parties. The latter is a
party ef principles-stands out squarely on the
broad principles of craftsmanship. The Dem
ocracy is party OF policy and availability
one that is ever graspins for the public pap.
The Chinese exclusion bill came from the Re-
publican party. What do you think of a party
who viii lie about candidates, deny their own
record and lie about that of others. There is
two questions every vo er should ask himself
" VINO are the candidates, and what are the
principles of the parties?' Between the candi-
dates p efer John f. Swift Lapplausel, because
he is man of intellect, strength honor indie
pendent principles, cannot be bought cannot
be scared, will not swerye from the right. lap
plause.l do not prefer Bartlett because he is
the characteristic Democratic candidate for
Governor-one who is never willing to express
his sentiment-for they do not go upon the plat
form and discuss issues. The Democracy are in
the habit of
NOMINATING MEN WHO CANNOT TALK
They. said when they nominated Stoneman
that he was the greatest intellectual
giant Of the age. Applause and laugh er.l
He was an antimonopolist of the most
pronounced type, who was to throw the rail-
q DC M ~ tote int fffar
great medical healer who was to cure all the
ills that man was heir TO. They tied him up,
Gagged him so that he could not speak, potwith-
standing the oft repeated boast that he was an
intellectual giant. Applause What has he
ever done 10 show that he is q man of gigantic
intellect? What is he? and who is he? Ar
swer yourself, for cannot. Bartlett read few
words of speech, then sat down and winked
at the lies in the Democratic platform. He
knows Swift was not responsible for the Bur-
lingame treaty, but like an old maid he don't
say anything, but shrugs his shoulders as much
as to say Swift is a very bad man. Elect Bartlett
for Governor and you

of the county candidates. They should be
buried with the greatest solemnity. Applause
There is no doubt but what that will be at
tended to; all arrangements have been perfect
ed. and the -" burying act will take place next
Tuesday. Laughter. The county Democratic
ticket reminds me of story of
BOY WHO SAW sNAKE
For the first time. He ran in the house and
told his mother he saw tail crawling around
the yard. IApplause.l In the case of the county
ticket they built the tail first, and afterwards
endeavored to put body and then head upon
it. Who ever heard of a good, strong, healthy
body growing out of a tail? Laughter
The Democracy has no candidates, they have
no principles, they are not entitled to the re-
spect of an American citizen. | remember that
in 1860 there was wide difference between the
Democratic and Republican parties. Now l
hear men say there is no principle at issue, no
difference between the two parties There is
day: one that has divided those two parties
and determinedttheir policy.
The Democracy was organized with two dis
tinct principles
STATE SOVEREIGNTY,
With all that it entailed and brought as its re-
suits, and free trade.
The speaker then referred at length to the
doctrine OF State rights as advocated by the
Democracy, that this Government was eoufed-
era ion of States: that there was no power to
hold them together; that it was as timber
for Governor.
They admonish Us not to speak of the past. l
Claim the right as an American citizen to refer
to the history of my country. Applause Starr

cate the rights and wrongs OF his country

Democrats what they are and what they were.
Applause. II they are anything now, then
they are what they were. The principle of the
Republican party is now and ever has been
that of
UNIVERSAL LIBERTY,
The principle upon which the party was
q principle they maintained and es-
ta5lished in the face of Democratic opposition,
that there is a Government here that can and
will maintain the old flag. [Cheers.1 General
Jackson, whom the Democracy now claim, was
the first President who proclaimed the doctrine
that afterwards became the corner stone of Re-
pubhcanisIn. The Democracy said, g We will
nuliify your laws" But q Old Hickory" sat
down upon them every time. He said 10 the
Democracy, 9" Your acts are nonsense" So they

held responsible. We are tie Democracy. We
are the aristocracy; place your choice in the
Presidential chair, and we viii bust up the
whole institution" We put honest old Abraham
in the White House. and the Democracy tried to
carry their threat into execution. Applause
They said in 1851: " The war was failure. Your
President is a failure" The Democ-
racy said that
WIGGINGToN SAID THAT.
They repeated those assertions in successive
Presidential platforms, until finally they hu-
inflated themselves getting down and walow-
ing in the dir, and swallowed Horace Greeley
for President. Applause. At the close of the
war they were opposed to all reconstruction
and the rights and protection of the
people who had been emanei2ated. Is this not
rue? When they bolted Greeley they Inundated
themselves in sack cloth and ashes, and said /:

give us the Offices" They accepted
