he was, of course, the champion of tn
laboring classes. Mantle and his paper, b,
continued, also endorsed Carter and askef
the worklEgmen to vote for him. Mr.. Pen
rose then took occasion to compare tn,
records OF the two candidates, Messrs
Clark and Carter, and in an impassioneG
and concise manner, showed their positions
and relative connections with the interests
OF the Territory, and then asked bis audi
tors which was the more worthy of theil
support.
Branching off from the candidacy o.
Carter an6 Mantle, the speaker addressed
the Cornish, and asked what the Repubi
can party
HAD EVER DONE FOR THEM.
Yet it always asked for their support
and pretended to be their friend whenever
it wanted anything, but at all other times
| it ignored them. The Republicans, be
said, say that the Cornish are good enough
to vote, but as to filling any Offices, they
are too ignorant for that. "Only day or
two ago, be continued, "a prominent Re
publican told me that the Cornish were
not fit to fll Offices, and for that reason
none were nominated by his party. He
even wentso far as to say that not one
out OF twenty Cornishmen could read or
write, and defed me to mention
q single native OF Cornwall who
had attaned any degree of greatness
or emins fs in any profession or art. /
asked hiHna ao wait and would furnish him
with a iss-vi Cornishmen who have become
famous in the last hundred years, but he
left before could produce the list. have
it here and will read it and ask our Repub-
lican friends to produce another country in
the world of the same size which has pro-
duced larger number OF distinguished
men,"
He then read the following:

IN CONCLUSION.
The speaker then called their attention
to the Demoeratic ticket and the number
OF workingmen that were candidates upon
it. The Republicans were requested, he
said, to place laboring men upon their
ticket, but true to the instincts of the
party, had refused, and instead had nomi
mated men who were antagonized to labor
and laborlng men. He advised his coun
trymen to vote for the Democratic ticket
and assist the party in it's efforts to place
men in Office, as by so doing they
would receive the recognition which was
their just due, and the people would say
that labor and labor unions were entitled
to respect and would accord it to them.
The speaker then closed with splendid
eulogy on Mr.. Clark and a good story on
"Uncle Jim" Trembling, foreman of the
Nellie mine, which evoked roars Of laughter.
The speaker was frequently interrupted by
applause, and his concluding remarks on
Mr.. Clark were loudly cheered.
J. II. Lynch and A. J. Johnston made
the closing speeches, which were as brief as
they were taking. Mr.. j Johnston's remarks
particularly seemed to take well.
