about Mr.. Blaine and the Chicago Convention are
marvels of mendacity and malice. The American

Los Angeles daily herald., 1888-10-28

Ii lncy and magnetism have attracted, but
lJ has been an attraction to ultimate
destruction he has attacked, mallgned
and slandered the pure public men OF his
own, party, and they without exception,
since he came to his eminence, have
been illustrious in the ranks of his enc
mics. 1t is true of Blaine, as of no other
man, that while all honest men are not
his enemies, all dishonored public men
have been his friends. This is the man
Of false pretenses upon whom was placed
the insignia of the Soldiers of the Gross,
the plumes of knight, by an infidel and
scoffer.
He went on to say that Blaine had not
been in politics for the country's good,
but for his own selfish ends. He chal-
lenged any one to point out measure
fathered by Blaine which had been of
material benefit to the people. He would
commend the utterance to Mr.. Blaine, of
one who lowered above him as does
Mount Washington over the wart-"To
tell the truth"
Dickinson devoted the remainder of
his speech to refuting, by figures and
other evidence, the statements made by
Blaine in his Grand Rapids speech two
weeks since. He paid particular atten-
ton to Blaine's figures on New England's 5
consumption of Western produce and as
to the effect of protection upon the WORK.
ingmen and farmers. He further argued
that the great natural markets for the
Northwest were the Southern States and
by the Western water ways and by rail-
roads to the Gulf, to billion of money
and trade with South America.

Postmaster General Dickinson spoke here
tonight in the same place where Mr..
Blaine some days since so vigorously as
sailed him. He began by saying that
in case of Republican success, Harrison
would be titular President, while the
man from Maine would be Regent Re-
ferring to Blaine as the Cataline of Amer
ican politics and the Burr of modern
politics, he denied in toto Blaine's state
made here as being false in substance,
false in general and false in detail. The
speaker had complied with Blaine's in
junction to "study history, and in doing
80 had examined that gentleman's posi-
ton in relation to politics. In giving the
result of his research, he did so in the
following language:
Whatever record Blaine has made upon
his country's history that is still extant
is bad whatever is not extant is burned
He has done more to corrupt public con.
science and to debauch the political
morals of young men in this generation

Female College, Ohio, came to the city
to-day, under the escort of Presiden

the visit.
The parade of railroad men tonight
was witnessed by 10000 people. Clubs
composed of railroad employees from
Terre Haute, Richmond, Logansport and
New Albany, together with local organi-
cations, composed the parade and maze
fine display. Several of the transpar-
encies referred to Sackville Vests letter
and elected considerable applause and
laughter. Tomlison's Hall was crowded
to it's utmost capacity, and when Gen.
eral Harrison appeared he was greeted
with prolonged outburst of enthusiastic
cheering. The vast audience arose
and set up an indescribable uproar with
drums and horns, while nearly thou
sand lantrens were swung in the air.
The demonstration was the most notable
one of the campaign. and lasted fifteen
minutes. To.night's speech was the
seventy-ninth General Harrison has
made during the campaign, and will
probably be the last. He said in part ::
My FRIENDS, RAILROAD REPUBLICAN
CLUBS OF INDIANA-I am here tonight
not to speak on any political topic, but to
express, if l can the deep and earnest
thanfulness feel toward you who have
shown 30 much kindness and confidence
in me. Very early in the campaign there
were those who sought to make a breach
between me and you. A voice: "They
didn' do it."l You did not wait for my
answer. but made answer yourselves
(cheers), and time and again
have witnessed your faith that
my disposition toward the men who toll
for living, was one of fondness, and
that the principles 1 have represented
and have always advocated were those
that were prompted by the true interests
of the workingmen of America. APP
plause.l l have always believed and
held that the property Of country, the
permancy of its institutions and social
order all depended on our pursuing such
policy in our legislation that would en-
able the American workingmen to earn
adequate wages that would bring
comfort into their homes and main
tain hope in their hearts. [Great
cheering.] A despairing man, a man
out OF whose horizon tho star of hope has
gone, is not a safe citizen in Republic.
Therefore, l would persevere against un-
friendly competition the highest possible
scale of wages to our working people.
[Great applause
After speaking in eulogy of the intelli-
gency, enterprise and fidelity OF railroad
men, the General thanked them heartily
for the great demonstration and retired
amid tremendous cheers.
