J. G. BLAINE SPEAKS.
Endeavorihg to Ridicule Sec
rotary of State Bayard.
HE RANTS ABOUT AS USUAL.
Nothing-rhe Good the Repub-
licans Have Done.

NORWICH, Conn.,, November IAN
enthusiastic crowd of $4,000 people
gathered at Williams Park to-day, to
hear James G. Blaine speak on the is
sues of the campaign. The crowd had
come from all the surrounding points
and a large portion of it from Rhode
Island. When the orator mounted the
stand and presented himself at the rail,
he was cheered by thousands, who,
when he began to speak were too far
away to hear him. but cheered vigor-
ously when the others cheered. After
discussing the tariff question, Mr..
Blaine said: II have heard a speech
made by Bsyard, Secretary of State.
Mr.. Bayard is a peculiar gentleman.
He is gentleman of very high senti-
ments. In fact, there is nobody who
speaks the English language, so far as
know, since Joseph Surface, who has
(Laughter). Mr.. Bayard's speech 70
devoted to the wicked
CONSPIRACY OF THE REPUBLICANS.
They all have taken that word. Mr..
Thurman has taken that word. The
wicked conspiracy of the Republicans
that entrapped Lord S&ckville into
writing letter, and he calls down the
wrath of the country upon those most
wicked conspirators that got up that
letter that Lord Sackville answered.
Now, must say Mr.. Bayard put him
self in a peculiar position, because if
there was a wicked conspiracy of lead
ing Republicans to entrap Lord Sack
vile into writing an imprudent letter,
these oonspiratoTs ought to be pun
ished. But, indeed, he punisLes Lord
Sackville. He says: Here is most
UNPRINCIPLED, INDUSTRIOUS CONSPIRACY
AGAINST
this man, and in consequence of this
conspiracy. OF which 1 cannot get the
authors, I will send Lord SackvilIe
back home and make him bear the sins
of these conspirators. That is a very
remarkable statement. They acknOWl-
edge that they were not quick to do it
but after ten days, and after they had
received adYicss and kilograms from all
parts CT the country that If they did not
start Lord ,Sackville, the Irish vote
would start, (laughter), then Lord Sack
vile had to go. It will be an agreeable
thing in England to Lord Salisbury.
Prime Minister to know that President
Clevelanu's administration deliberately
weighed Lord
sACKvILLE AGAINST THE IRISH VOTE
and started him home. applause
We have another paper here, speaking
of conspiracies and wicked things, the
World, which, believe is counted a
good Democratic organ, is opposing
Abram Hewitt, and this morning it
reprodaces the Morey letter (that was
forged eight years ago against the
lamented President Garfield when he
was tie Republican candidate) and
nowIthe World is belaboring Mr.. Hewitt
because he said it
WAS A TRUE LETTER,
and aided in putting the forgery into
circulation. That is pretty amusing.
(Laughter) It opposed Hewitt for
mayor of New York because Mr.. Hewitt
lent his name as an endCrser of rss-
cally scheme of forged letter against
the Republican Party. Now, gentle
men, there is good old adsge, which 1
do not wish to quote, about somebody
falling out and honest men getting their
dues (laughter). but l did not expect to
live to see the day when one section of
the Democratic Party would wait to
swear off the responsibility of the
Morey letter upon another. There it
stands.
THE AuDACTors Fopc FRY pFppoDucrD
Forgery all through, and one of the
Democrats who gave his high reputa-
ton and high character to put it into
circulation was Abram Hewitt, and it
rises up against him now, not from Re-
publicans but from the Democrats, and
when the Democrats all get to exposing
each other (applause) that will be
terrible day. Ii they do that, the Re-
publicans would not need stump
speeches or mass meetings or flags, or
any other paraphernalia, to carry on
the election. The election would carry
itself. Speaking of Mr.. Bayard's posi-.
ton in regard to Lord Sackvile, the
Democratic Party never has conducted
the affairs of the country with Great
Britain with dignity or advantage to this
country. Never And if you will con-
trast the administration of General
Grant and of Abraham Lincoln in their
conduct of affairs with Great Britain
with what has been done by the Demo-
cratic Party, you
WOULD ASK NO OTHER ISSUES.
We owe to the Democratic Party, and
to It's bad diplomacy, the loss of British
Columbia, that vast province on the
Pacific Coast, which would give US the
entire coast from Behring Strait down
to the Gulf of California. We
owe the reciprocity treaty of 1854,
in which the government got
about one article to forty as COM
pared with the Canadian reciprocity
treaty, which was thirty-nine degrees
on one side. which was our opponents,
and one degree on our side. We owe
that to them. In fact it is not in the
power of the Democratic Party to give
a single treaty or diplomatic procedure
they have made with Great Britain,
which rebounds to the honor of this
country. Now, when
