Now, want to show you what como Of
the Democratic pspTs and the party used
to b lisve in. will read from piece
which Mr. Wilson il interested in. IL is
from the Wheeling REGISTER (Applause) ,
q paper of which you have all heard. 1t Ia
dated Nov. IA, 1888, and reads:
H.re Gen. Goff read special Telegram
and an editorial from ths REGISTER, Of the
date above given, as he h:d done in his
frat speech of the series, at MnrtinshurR,
already referred to in the REGISTERS re-
polt of that speech. Wien he had con.
cIuded, come one proposed three cheers fer
Cleveland, and they were given with a
will. Mr.. GGff was ditconcertsd for Eo-
ment, but s,id:
Tost voice has peculisr VIC bile to It.
Laughter. I now want to csll your at.
Jention to another editorial taken fro N the
tRRGIsrER, of November 19, 1888, in wh:ce
thes ditor goes over the VII lie question of
protective tariff, and advises the people
of West Virei MIA to sop port that tariff sys-
ten, and that tariff for revenue would
be utterly destructive.
After reading that quotation, General
Goff followed it with a third, from the
REGISTER of November 9, 1885, of tie
sans general import, and then laid:
And yet, God bless your soul, my D sm-
ocratic brother. when your party brig, in
the Mills bill, which pats wool, timber
and salt on the free list, "West Virginia's
great producte, I" the Democratic party and
the Democratic organ 10 West Virginia
say "whe Il into lioe and vote for the bill. !"
I don't believe you're gciug to 60 1t. Ap-
plause. don't believe the Democratic
party in Ohio county is going to do it
Applause | All ever the State have
found Democratic voters who say they ere
not going to bs hoodwinked any longer.
They are going to come out cf the barren
s.ubbls of Democracy and a'e going
to range with you and I in tie green pas
tures and beside the still waters Of Re-
pnblicanism. [Applause. You can't
stop it, and, thank God, many Of you don't
want to ssop it. Applause. That is
what is going to make West Virginia vets
for HARRISON. And that is what Is going
to make you send G. w. Atkinso, to Con-
g;ess. [Cheers.
HE TALKS ABOUT GoFF. 49,
That is what is going to make you send
Rapai,lfpen nn&rahsra G the Ielislsfafo
down to Charleston next winter. A voice:
"And Won want 'em to vote for you."l
TAnother voice: "What's the matter with
YOU for Governol?"] That's just it. The
only roint out is this that next winter
am going to sit through another session Of
Congress protecting yonr interesto. before
taking the oath Of Office. Applause.] ]
Now, boys, that's the way 1t ought to be,
any how, and that's not because it's Gof ct
eli. He is very humble individual citi.
zen of this Stats. I was born ano7g yo',
aud propose to spend the short remnant OF
my life among you. But stand In this
fipht for that great and ever living prin-
ciple, that will live in the hearts of this
people when have te,n .fors gotten for
ages. A voice: YOU'RE good enough,
nut you're on the wrong side."] You'll
be on the right side on November Oh, my
friend.
Now, let me call your attention to this:
We have to raise $500, 600, 900 every year
for the expenses ofths government. How
will we do it? Viii we do it by tariff
duty or by internal revenue and direct tax
alton? My idea is to raise 1t by an inpor rt
duty, fixed at such rate that when it lets
the foreign manufacturer In, he will have
to pay the dif1e -encs between the pauper
wages paid to labor in the Old World aud
the wages paid the well-fed labor OF this
country. Now, what is wrong about
tba,? If the foreign manufacturer
chya.s his labor, want to protect ours
by making him pay over to the gov
eminent the money he cheats his peop G
out Of. By doing that We get his money
to aid Us in meeting the expenses Of oul
government, protect our manufacturers,
and keep our people from falling into 9
condition Of poverty. Now; which 10 the
best system?
HAS PECULIAR VIEWS OF DEMOCRATIC
POLICY.
The Democratic patty wants tariff FOL
revenue only. Grover Clsyefand-l Cheerr.
THEY'RE very faint, boye. lC1eers.
They're vary faint; they don't come from
deep down in your hearts. It's all right
though; think and act for yourselves. pT'
b.en struggling for that ever since my
boyhood. It's one Of the principles th'
grand old party stards for to-day. Now
President Cleveland wants to make o re
duction of 500, 900, 600 from the protettst
industries of the country alone. / wan
the manufacturers and laboring men Il
think about that. will say it sgain
President Cleveland wants to maxi
a reduction of $100,0C0,000 from
the protected industries Of sth'
country alone. Now, I'm going &
move that. The total revenue Of the gov
eminent is $500, 200, 600. I'll omit the ode
figures. Of that We raise S100, ,000, ,0O'
finn internal revenue. Tnst leaves 5000,
