This South in charge OF our Government has done
q great curious things In the first place there
was Democratic majority about thirteen In the House
REPRESENTATIVES There was minority OF DEMOCRATS
who with the Republicans had majority for protection
American labor for good wages TO American working
men. Tho Democratic minority Is being rubbed out by
Southern pressure II We are to have the protective
tariff defended. It must be BY Republican votes One
Protection Democrat survives. Samuel ]. Randall Zap

Democrats OF North punished their trcachcrous
who have surrendered to the South But
fer Samuel j. Randall the DcmocIats would have been
defeated 1884 At least that voice will not be heard
this election that side.
How was the Democratic protection vote rubbed Quit
A man Who held against FREQ trade did not get a
public building In CITY because the Pres-
dent vetoed his appropriation That OF course was
merely an executive Glaushtar) We'll now about
The Constitution that the whole eRS-

Here Warner Miller entered the hall and was
greeted with such loud cheers that Mr. Evarts
stopped speaking. Three rousing cheers were
given in response to a cry from the platform OF
Three cheers for the next Governor of New
York" Mr. Evarts then proceeded with CRUZ
cism Of President Clcvelands vctoes OF pension
bills. He said:
President Cleveland pcryers the power when he

OF twothrds in the House Of Representatives what Is
is that Democratic majority In the House OF
Representatives is fraudulent one. That majority is
great Trust which boycotts all legislation not liked by the

A MISLEADING CRY OF DANGER
This Administration had been in power two years and
eight months when said that tho country was In
great danger and that extra session was necessary
They avoided that but In December the President de-
voted his entire message that great danger Out OF
,ho Of no hear
Presidents In that message. 1t is very cX
traordnay view Of the wealth OF the country that tho
country In such danger Much might be forgiven
the Democratic party in being embarrassed by surplus
They never had before. CLauehter) We were
not embarrassed with surplus when we took office from
the Democrats 1851. What did VIC do with our sur
plus! We paid the National debt But the President
said It was terrible thing and the people were to be
awakened 70 their danger. Well, for Two years MI
Cleveland had a majority the House OF Representatives
Why didn't they deal with the surpusl Thus the whole
message of the President is arragnment Of the Demo
cratic party (Appause) What is at the bottom OF 1t
all 1t is to bring the people to vote upon the question
unnecessary and to have them pierce every
artery Of Industry and wealth. That is the Democratic
method OF finance.
1t my good fortune to vote for William Henry Iiar
rison. (Applsuse) 1t makes feel old to look back
fory.eght years but put to II there is single Re-
publican Administration that cannot take pride In
We Dlked protection and free trade in that Harrison cam

on those themes in this very town OF Saratoga.
Mr. Evarts read extracts from WcbSter's speech,
which was a sarcastic review OF suggestion OF
Democratic Congre Of the period that Amcri-
can worxngmen should have their wages reduced
to the level of the wages of laborers in Corsica
and Italy. Webster showed that the COrsican
laborer only received eighteen cents day, and his
wife only eleven cents day. Mr.. Evarts read
extracts from speech made by Texas Congress
man recently arguing that American lab0rcrs could
take the wages Of lindostan laborers, who are paid
ten cents day, and remarked:
For my part much difference between men
such wages and slaves. They live through the

but nothing l dreamed 1t would b. so, but
1t does IL the old aunt Of mudslll" would come

Mr. Evarts then read to the audience the fav-
| orable comments OF The London Times and
The London Spectator in favor of Mr.. Cleve-

II President Cleveland favor free trade It is
clear that free trade avors HIM The Democratic party
stalks up and down this land with a card bearing the
words: a. Buy your clothes in England This year,

wages low wages you please There s no escaping
