nor of Ohio. Joseph B. Foraker
Among the speeches, was one by Sem
ator Upton, which was historical in
character, and in which reference was
made to his boyhood's days spent in Ok.
ford township, in beautiful words. The
Senator spoke of his adopted state in
glowing language, and pictured her adj
vancement and prosperity.
Governor Foraker. who arrived on the
grounds about IL o'clock. spoke in the
afternoon. His theme was chiefly, "Our
Country" and right eloquently did he
portray its greatness and grandeur. The
speech, which occupied about an hour
in delivery, was eXtempore In character,
but bristled with good points and prac-

greatly by the substantial citizens, who
with eager ears caught every word that
fell from the Governors lips.

union of 1886 may be voted as the grand
eliminating triumph Of Pennyroyaldom.
