ton with him IN tie Lords Prayer, and impressive
scene was presented by the multitude Of thousands
bowling their heads and repeating in sonorous unison

dominant issue of the campaign, demonstrating that
Clcvelands reelection meant free-trade policy but
The election Of Harrison and Morton meant the Ameri-
can policy of protection to American industries and

Senator William NJ Evaris began with personal
"reminiscences Of Conncc icur his mothers state.

Proceeding with characteristic eloquence he spoke
Of the grandeur Of the United States, against which
10 nation e9er declared war. and which haG taught
the world all the lessons which have been taught since
they were formed, and hc declared that, IN view Of
this the people should not give up al tie ballot box
what could not lie taken from them In war. Re
fcrring 70 the Admiuisi ration Of Pierce, with the
repeal Of tie Missouri Compromise and to the Adj
ministrston of Buchanan, with the Kansas Nebraska

the moral that the country should not trust
