While we talk abOIt the Chinese, reform and
tariff, there is question above all these that is

ballot It IS the very foundation OF govern

JOHN EAGoN.
The next speaker was Hon. John EapeD
of Amador, candidate for Congress fom
tie Second District. He said he had been

teen counties, had made fifty-six speeches.
and had ridden 100 miles to-day TO be pres-

He wished to meet this people as friends

At that time he was only eleven years Old.

He remembered the old log cabin, the
coon skin and the live coon. The queg-

Al that time Maine and Virginia fell into

and his family, his country and her citi-
zens, votes for Harrison and Morton.
D. WOODS.
S. D. Woods, OF Stockton, was the next
speaker. Although handicapped with
| hoarseness he made fifteen inntes speech
that wrought the immense audience up to
the highest pitch Of enthusiasm. He has
stumped the entire Second Congressional
| District, and says that it is going to roll up
a big majority for the Republican candi-
cate, John Eagon. He said the greatest
editice in the United States was the humble
school house on the prairie on the frontier,
where the poor man could educate his
children, the future poets, scholars and
| statesmen of cur country. I. is the
greatest building, however humble in
size or structure, that stands on
