Hewitt Hit it Right

New YORK, October 25.-In letter to
the chairman of the county Democracy
ratification meeting. tonight, at
Cooper Union, Mayor Hewitt uses these
words relative to the national results
Some persons seem to think the
multiplicity of the candidates may in
jure the national ticket. see no reason
for this opinion, but if it is true, it is
not my fault, as I have exhausted
every honorable effort to secure
a union OF party on some Democrat
who would not represent faction. 1
regard the success of the national ticket
as paramount to the consideration that
Grover Cleveland possesses the conf
dence of the masses, because he has
earned it by unsWervedly honesty, his
courage and his independence, and the
name of Allen G. Thurman is house

the wage-earners of this country
| against the competition which may re-
duce the American wages even below
the standard they falsely impute to my
suggestion. (Cheers.) The policy of the
Democratic Party-a revision of our
tariff laws-as indicated by the Demo
cratic Party-a tariff for revenue only,
or progressive free trade means vast
and sudden increase of importations.
prolonged cheering) Is there
man here so. dull as not to
know that this means diminised
work in our American shops. (Cheers
and cries of mo, No.") If some one
tells me that labor is not sufficiently
rewarded here. does he hope to have
its rewards increased by striking down
our protective duties, and compelling
our workmen to compete with the un-
derpaid labor of Europe? (Cheers.) l
conclude by saying that less work and
lower wages are the inevitable result
of the triumph of the principles advo.
speaker closed by again expressing his
thanks for the cordial tender of conf
dsnce which had been made. He had
felt that in return he could not
omit to say that what he had
said was not because they needed
to be assured of his friendliness, but in
recognition of confidence that false
hood and SANDER could not shake.
The excitement occasion by the per
sonal nature of the subjects dealt with
by General Harrison continued to
pervade the audience for several mo-
ments after his departure. and hun
dreds followed him out of the hall and
cheered him Yociferously. Senator
Blair then made long address OF the
subjects of labor and education.

For I'm suIe with simple English they could
ne er be contens,
But their hough . in foreign explosives would
have to fad vent.
While musing In this fashion ('eeling rather
cross and old),
forgot about my dinner, which was getting
awful cold;
And the adjective kept dropping from the lips
of eth IT child,
TIL with lawful" awful" "awful," was
driven fairly wild.
