Jacksonville, Ohio.
NEWARK, o., October 31.-Judge
Thurman was driven to the court house.
where 10000 people gave him a hearty
welcome. Before the regular address
began, Miss Minnie Hcile, representing
thirty-eight handsomely bsndana-uni-
formed little girls of Newark, presented
a pretty floral emblem in the shape of
big bandsna. Judge Thurman was
visibly effected by the presentation,
and made short response. He tn en-
addressed the large audience, and be-
gan by reviewing and eulogizing the
acts of the present administration,
which had rebuked the dire predictions
of the Republicans in 1884. He then
spoke in terms of the
RICHEST PRAISE OF PRESIDENT CLEVE-
LAND,
personally. Finding the progress the
President was making in the affections
of the American people," continued the
speaker, This political opponents sought
to get him into trap after trap and de-
stroy his policy. First, they attacked
him upon the fisheries matter. The
President made treaty with England
that secured to Americans rights they
never had before, but the Senate refused
to ratlfy it. One of the great reasons
for its rejection" said the speaker, was
that certain mischief making men
whispered into the ears of some Of the
Senators to reject the treaty and get up
a row with Great Britain, so that the
Irishmen in the United States will vote
the Republican ticket. (Great laughtsr.)
[ think that accounts for the milk in
the cocoanut. But when Cleveland
sent in his message recommending re-
taliation if they would neither negotiate
or back do En, and back down was out
of the question, for
HE WOULD NOT BACK DOWN
himself, when he did that, then the
party gun which was to capture all the
Lrishmen in the United States was so
effectuaIly spiked that they had to try
to get up something else to accomplish
their purpose, great laughter and ap-
plause) and SO they concluded to try it
on the Chinese question. The Judge
then reviewed the Chinese question
repeated what he said about the Chinese
in his Cincinnati speech. Turning to
the exclusion bill, he said the Senators
did much wrsngling and squirming to
see how they could get out of passing
it. Finding they could not beat US in
the argument on the tariff question
finding that
WE GAINED STRENGTH EVERY DAY
in the discussion Of that measure; find
ing. that upon the fishery question
they had made great mistake; finding
they had equally made mistake on
the Chinese question, these people con-
ceived the idea of catching Cleveland
in a trap, by first catching thu British
Minister in the trap. You cannot read
on the Murchison letter without seeing
at once that the man who wrote il. in
stead of being disposed to vote for
Cleveland, was tricky, villainous,
designing Republican of the vilest sort.
But yet, the British Minister fell into
the trap. More applause and voice
How much did he get for it?'O Judge
Thurman: Well, that is q question
that has been troubling me ever since
it was published, and, to save my life,
[ cannot make up my mind whether
the British Minister was
MERE RASCAL OR FOOL.
At all events, he acted the fool when
he answered that letter, and then that |
letter and his answer were kept secret |
until a day or two before the large |
Irish meeting was held in New York, |
and addressed by Mr.. Blaine. For |
Jimmy was after the pot again. Elaine
held up his hands in holy horror just |
to think the British minister was inter- |
fering in American politics, and on the |
side of the Democratic Party, and CT
peciaIIy in favor of Grover Cleveland. !
Now that was not fair Interpretation |
of the British minister's letter, but |
there was that in it to enable
BLAINE 30 MIsLEAD HIS AUDIENCE
and to make the Irishmen there be-
lieve, as he supposed, that the British
government was trying to elect Grover
Cleveland. When Grover Cleveland
saw the trick that was being played,
when he saw what was being done to |
destroy the power of the Democratic !
Party and to prevent fair election in |
the United States, he acted just like
the brave, courageous, decisive man that |
he is. He sent the papers to the Brit
ish government, and as they did not
recall their minister, Ny Lord Sack
vile, Grover Cleveland sent him his
walking papers, and said: We do not |
want any more Of you here (Laugh-
ter and appiause.) And now, unfortu- 7
nately, Blaine
IN HIS PRETENDED INNOVATION
and trying to catch votes, had declared
the President should have sent him out
of the country as soon as the letter
came to light. Others declared the
same thing. Well, the President has
sent him out, and told him to go; and
go he will and he won't stay here long,
either; (Great cheering,) and now see
