3 business men this afternoon, and the
meeting before the sub-Treasury in Wal

town were fully equal to the hopes OF thu
managers. The meeting was presided ovsl
by Jos. j. O'Donohue. When Secretary
Fsirchild arose he was welcomed with Q
roar of applause.
Mr.. Fairchild proceeded to explain the
administrations policy Of deposiiine
enough money to meet the extraordinary
ex penses of the government, or about S57,'
600 600, in national banks, defending II
on the ground that it relieved q restricted
money market, and offered additional ia
~cilities to business.
If all Republican Secretaries, be said,
bad been es wise as was Secretary Win
, dom all of our bonds would pow be sub
i,csed to call and the whole national
debt could be extinguished in about eight
years, but they were not Sd wise, aud II the
revenues are not reduced our ouly reconrse

CARLIsLE's SPEECH.
When he had flushed, Mr.. Carlisle was
introduced. He wac also warmly greeted.
He spoke as follows.
"The Secretary of tie Treasury, in the
speech to which you have just listened,
has made such a clear and satisfactory
Statement. concerning the conduct OF your
financial affairs, during the present ad-
ministratioD, on all disputed points at
least, that there is nothing left for me 10
say upon that subject, and l shall therefore,
in my remarks, call your attention brief
" to one or two other matters, which, IN
nv opinion, the People of the whole com
try ought to take iato Rerious considera-
ton ia this campaign. Mr.. Fairchild has
shaken of the intimate business relations
existing between the people in
the various paris or ths
country and of the dependence
of each local community for It's own pros
perity upoa the pEo'p:rity OF all others. l
think this is the case To- to a greater ex-
tent than eyer before in our history. Gee
of the most beneficial results Of tie last
p, residential election was the establish
mert of harmonious relations, social, po-
liticsl, and commercial between the peo-
plo of the North and the South. Social
and commercial intercourse between the
pe2pie CT these two sections has never been
50 close and intimate as il is now.
AN UNITED COUNTY MAKES A PROSPER
Gus COUNTRY.
The un'oa of the Sites was never go
strorg as it is to day; and it ia strong because
the people everywhere 'feal that they are
once more citizens of a fee government
a government which will treat them justly
and fairly. The North ban never had so
pooi q market in the South for its products
"a it has row, and the South has never
had the use of 50 much Northern capitsl
"a il has now. II is not too much to cay
THAT if the policy which has largely con-
ducsd to produce these beneficial ie'nlts
shall be continued for four years longer, 1t
will be impossible for any political party
to secure power by appealing to the prtJu-
| dices of q section OF thu country or one
race Of people against another section or
another race. I believe if there were no
other reason for the reelection Of Grover
| Cleveland as President Of ths United
| Stl.es, the fact TIA. his administration has
%iuauuuratei an era Of good will between
the different sections and different races
would be amply sufficient.
REPUBLICAN BLOODY sHIRTIsM.
That it ia the deliberate purpose Of the lead
ers of the Republican paity-to re-oEea the
sectional ard race agitation which was al.
lsyed by the election Of Mr.. Cleveland
must be apparent to every one who prop
erIv considers the present situation. Al
ready bills and resolutions which must In
evitably have this effecs have been Intro
duced into the Republican Senate, and
their passage is earnestly urged by gentle
man whose coursels have o controlling in
iuencs with their party. Sectional aglta-
ton and strife necessarily mean business
depression TO q greater or less extent.
Since the Inauguration of q Democratic ad-
minis.ration the people of the country have
been at peace with each other, aud the
course of business in every section has
been regular and prosperous. Capital from
the North has found profitable fields for In
yestment in the South; and the earnings oil
the South have been freely expended IN
the purchase of the products Of the North.
Aided by Northern investment and North
eIu experience and skill, railroads have
been constructed. mines have been opened
and developed, manufacturing enterprises
have been set on foot in nearly every qUSr'
ter of the South, aud all these great enter.
prises are hourishiug under the peaceful
and frsternsl policy which now prevails.
Can any substantial interest Of the peo-
pie, eittec North or South, be promoted
by q reversal OF this policy, and will rot q
revival Of controversies at once impair the
security, lift does rot absolutely de toy,
the profits Of capital invested in the south
err plrts of tie country? Such a contro-
very not only excites the people OF
one section against the people Of
Another, but it ferments discord
among those who live together in the
same section. 1t discourages capital
and ~dcnoralizss labor; it Interrupts trade
and intercourse, aad impairs the Pre- sperity
of both sections. l appeal, therefore, roS
to the selfish or me!csnary spirit Of the
business men of New York, but to their
reason and their patriotism to unite in &C.
caring TO the country the continuance Of a
wise and Just poiicy on this sublect-a
!, policy which will cement the union of the
States, promote tie prosperity Of the peo-
pie, and guarantee the equality Of all citi-
zens under the law.
THE TARIFF QUESTION.
have said that the country has been
prosperous under this administration, and
think the business men generally will
concur in this statement. 1t has been
prosperous from the very beginning of the
administration, aud is prosperous now,
Notwithstanding tie persistent efforts Of
, many Influential politicians to alarm
: capital and labor, drive them out of pro-
! ductive industries by predictions of bank
rup'cy, ruin aud starvation, as a certain
, result of the Democratic policy. Never
: before in the history of this or any other
!. country have such determined and un-
; ; patriotic efforts been made to discourage
9 the investment of car ital and create uu-
easiness and dissatisfaction among the
laboring people. Every device tina. parti-
san ingenuity could invent, and every
Misrepresentation thst partisan zhal could
sugyest have been resorted to for the pur'
pose Of convincing those who are
