 MT. Wallaees residence was beautifully decorated.
 MT. Blaine arrived at the park about three o'clock. A platform had been erected on the base ball diamond for him to speak from. Charles H. Pine introduced him to the au- dience The cheering continued for some time as Mir. Blaine advanced to the front of the platform. He said:
 Mr. Chairman and Fellow Citizens of Connecticut Did you ever think of the reason why am able publican party came into power had no right to address you as citizens of Connecticut Each State I had no right to come into Connecticut and call you my fellow citizens. The Republicans put into the constitution of the United States the fourteenth hnef'95 in the United ststes Gn is Citizen of the used to reside no matter what his color no matter whether he was born from native or from nat right under the fourteenth amendment of the Con sitution of the United States to select his own resi-
 dence to claim protection to the laws; and if the State refuses to give him that protection he has the gain that right. Against that right every Demo crat in both branches of Congress and every Demo
 fore, when I say I am your fellow citizen, I wish you not to thank me but to thank the Re that there was a party strong enough, and patriotic enough and bold enough to put that pr1n- ciple in the constitution of the United States tap

 zenship were leveIled and we stood before the law say, fellow citizens of Connecticut you allow the protective tariff to be destroyed and in it's place you have free trade when do you propose to get It back again? You hold it now and it is under the strong principles of protection that Conneeticut has been growing rich and the laboring man mas been prospering for last twenty-seyen years. When the Republican party came into power ana lection guaranteed to you. You have held it ever since, and now, as have said elsewhere repeat s;s Who do you expect will hold protection 1T Coonec- ticut tramples upon itf Do you think you can nave the principle of free trade and have someone re tain the protective tariff for you9 you desire the maintenance of protection you must put your fruer in this world than that God helps those Whe hsP 8Bo S1d dS you soH ae n9s fnk wifi held yoIf CA voice Harrison Great applause

Nowhere in the world England.

Now the question is, whether you are willing friend. The whole question is one of wages.

It was made up of that class of men; President Cleveland hasn't disturbed one hair of the the protective system t that a+ the R@epqbe Re b workinemen. You will hear Democrats say: '1why, didn't the Republicsps four years ago predict @ all as every" As if MT. Cleveland had had anything to do with it aSghte, ,, We have had t goGd times be- Senate. The Senate has stood like 8 rock for pro tection. The President with the House, which is made up of southernerS, have stood for free trade Whenever yeu bear man say that you have had goods times before Cleveland was elected, tell plause1 1t is the Republican Senate that has been able to restrict him and block the wheels of his free trade cart If Connecticut does her duty on Tues day next by giving her eectoral vote for Harrison and Morton, you rest assured that the business honor But if Connecticut lets go and forgets her duty, then you will have an abundance of leisure Europe My Judgment is that you are wise enough to calculate in advance not to put yourself on a eaeaep eass or wHes tSa ppoecVe & gives There is great discrepancy in the wages paid here that there is a difference I'll give you case Some twenty or thirty years, ago you began the scale taking all the markets. Two large establish ments were moved here from free trade England; one is in Newark, the other in Pawtucket. I don't know much about the one in Pawtucket, but do the o%ned bV VI tbe same parte that owned one in Scotland; They pay they do in Scotland Now if you knock down pro lection wages in that establishment in Newark go down to the same that paid in the establishment in Scotland. Wages will be capitalized, not on the higher, but on the lower plane. All in favor of The campaign is late for argument. There may be a few who can be converted, but if can reach one man by my voice and make him feel that in his hands he has the power of protecting his own inter eSts will feel that have not been talking in van Harrison on one hand and Cleveland on the other have decide the question for myself; you must decide it for yourselves.
 As Mr. Blaine finished he was loudly cheered. He at once put on his overcoat, but toned it up around him and was driven to MT. Wallace's house.
 Adam E. King of Maryland was next in~ troducsd. MT. King made one of his most eloquent and felicitous speeches, saying that Illinois was good for 30, 900 for Harrison and New York would give from 25, 900 to 30, 900. He refuted the charge of seCtionaiism laid to the Republican party, discussed the tariff issue with much force, showing that this con- gressional district makes more goods and pays more wages than all the States repre- sented by the farmers of the Mills bill. He explained how that under the operations of the tariff all commodities had been cheapen- ed. He paid 8 showing tribute to labor, scathingly arraigned the policy of the Demo- cratic party and pronounced high sulogium to Harrison and the record of the Republican party. He said Cleveiands civil service reform was Q hum- bug. He had turned Republicans out by the and had appointed southerners, thieves, and those mostly of the criminal classes in their stead.
 Ex-Mayor Bulkeley of Hartford, Republi- can candidate for governor, was next intro- auced and spoke briefly, declaring his conf 1ence in the result of the vote next Tuesday. He said the Republican party had well man. aged it's trust in Connecticut and asked that he interests of the State be continued in Re- publican hands.
 The meeting wound up with three rousing ,heers for Harrison, Morton, and the whole ickeE. The special train left little after o'clock, going back to New Haven.
