Tor one always recognized the fairness
OF that claim. [Cheers.] 1t had much to do

In order to keep in line with the national

Therefore 1 have stated elsewhere in the
Territory, and 1 call on the thousand citia
zens of Butte to verify the assertion, that
the man whom we have presented as our

employment to more hands, bread to more
mouths, and has lighted the fires of comfort
On more hearthstones, in the Territory of
Montana, than all tie protective tariffs

Continuing, he said that the Republicans
tried hare to make capital out OF the fact
that MIR. Clark had been
SUCCESSFUL IN HIS OPERATIONS
and had accumulated property and wealth
and all through his own unaided efforts
and gave this as one OF the reasons why he
should not be elected. Another strong
argument they resorted to wal that he did
not interfere with his wife's selection OF her
servants. Such arguments, the speaker
said, were unworthy OF consideration, and
that the opposition would have to pro-
duce something OF more force ii they ex-
pected to defeat MIN. Another objection,
he said, that they had was that Mr.. Clark
was running on the same ticket as Grover
Cleveland and their objection against the
latter was that he had given the country
an honest, pure and good government.
[Cheers. :,
The Republican party, the speaker said,
had
OUTLINED ITS USEFULNESS,
and instead of being q party OF the people,
it had degenerated into a mel e instrument
OF the privileged class. The lofty, noble
and pure men that nee had been at its
head had gone, and the party had fallen
into decay. The Republican party no
longer was that grand and glorious party
it was when it went forth to battle 1or
humanity, and had for it's ~watchWord Tree

Major Maginnis then touched upon tht
question OF the navy and compared the
navy left by the Republicans and the one
the country now possessed. He also re
viewed the Presidents foreign policy IN re
