of any party visited, day after da1
by so many men representing so man

Harrison since the day of his nOmil

of any campaign has any candida
been able to touch upon so many li'
topics of the day without "puttir
his foot in it," His speeches ha'
been characterized from the first
the greatest good sense, the highe
order of ability in public speakin
This has been no surprise to Gener
Harrison's friends, for they knew t
man. and knew that he had new
been found unequal to any occasio
This was true of him in the scho'
room and on the stump, in his IL
office and in the courtroom, on t
battlefield and in the Senate. A
counting for this happy condition
things the Cincinnati Commercial @
zette says: General Harrison

a Woodworking man all his life, a
his faculties have been disciplin
and made alert and executive.
has earned all he has, and his hab
of application abide with him. He
not elated or oppressed by his pc
ton, but he takes it coolly, and is
full possession of himself. The |
inc rock is under his feet, and ov
head the sky is clear. He has alb
lutte sincerity and unqualified coura
and he has had such a breadth
experience as few men have profi
by, while each day of his life
been in some way good to him.

Albany, New York, in the month o

We took copy of the inscription t.

hoping that after these long year
this badge might find its way to thost
who had mOurned for a loved Ont

From this place, where Vernon
made an imperishable name, W,
drove by way of Spottsylvania CouiI
House directly to Fredericksburg
Along the way we passed many farm
owned by negroes, well fenced and

with every evidence of thrift AMI
prosperity, being in marked contras
with the shiftless farming of the nal

passed during the day are now cult

what that soil will do when properl]
worked.
just as the shades of night wer|

by Hazel Run between Lees and
Willis Hills, along by the old mill
along the line of the charge by TIL
old brigade, along the sunken road
held by Cobb's rebel brigade in Dec.
'62, past the house where Cobb died
along that fatal stone wall at the foo|
of Morey's Hill down over the grounI
where Hancock and Hooker led oul
their men into the streets OF the Guy

the people and their minister engaged

prayer meeting, and halted at tn
door of Exchange Hotel. And s
the last scene of that day was one Q
peace and worship. We had travers

the life-blood of heroic souls. Their
is no place on this continent {
equal area, where so much patriot
blood has been shed as within th
sweep of a radius extending out fc
twenty miles from Fredericksburg o
the south side of the RappahannocE
And for what did these men die

Ten Reasons Why I Am a
Republican.

To the Editor Of the Boston Journal:
/ am Republican by hereditary
influence, past environments and pres
ent convictions. Because
First-The Republican party in the
past has stood for all that is liberal
and progressive in legislation.
Second Republican party
freed the slave.
Third pronounced and en-
phatic legislation on moral questions
has come most largely from Republi-
can legislators.
Fourth-The Republican party has
always been the champion Of protec-
tion-protection to the citizen, pro-
lection to the wage Garner, protection
to the wage payer, and now, right in
line with its past professions and per-
formances, it declares for protection
to the home.
Fifth-The friends of the liquor
interest in the ranks of the Republi-
can party are few and far between.
Sixth-The Republican party has
stood for the most advanced temper
ance legislation which the people de-
manded, aud in very many states has
made open declarations of enmity
against the saloon.
Seventh-The Republican party
deals with conditions of the temper
ance work, not theories. The idea
is not always instantly attainable; i
is better that the majority of thu
great, struggling, grooming mas
should gain one inch of altitude thai
that a few should, by separating
themselves into an 'holier-t han-thou'
party, attain supernal nights.
Eight-The Republican party b
reason of its powerful position in thi
country is able to consistently prom
Use the redemption of its pledges
Will the so-called Prohibition party
even if the sincerity of it's pledges b
admitted, cannot for many years,
least, fulfill any one of them.
) Ninth--The best types OF Amer
r can manhood are represented IN tt
persons of Benjamin Harrison an
Levi p. Morton.
Tenth-The record of the Republ
can party proves it to be made up
: men out Of whose brain and hea
reforms have come in the past, al
are likely to come in the future.
