EAGER FOR THE FIGHT.
Allen w. Thurman for the Ticket and
Victory.
columbus Post, August 90, 1891

columbus Post, August 90, 1891
COLUMBUS, o., August 29--The Post tonight
has the following interview with Allen w. Thur
man.
"How do you like the result at Dayton?" asked
the Post of Allen w. Thurman this morning.
~ suppose you mean how do like the nomi-
nation? Well, preferred Neal, of course but I
mean to do everything in my power to assist Mr.
Campbell, and every other adherent of Mr. Neal
will do the same thing
"The platform is the best adopted by any DEM
ocratic convention for years. We took no step
backward, but forward, on the subject of the
tariff; and promise you that we will make 1t SO
warm for the Republicans on this issue, and the
way in which it is connected with local self.gov-
ernment that they will have no time to spare in
discussing other issues. The space devoted to
abuse of Mr.. Campbell by the Republican papers
this morning, shows plainly that they desire to
turn the issue in other directions.
"All of this talk about Mr. Campbell being con-
trolled by other people is nonsense No man
ever lived or ever will live who can own james E.
Campbell. He is not built that way. thought
Mr. Neal would make the stronger candidate, and
think SO still, but man whose personal charac-
ter is rs pure, whose integrity is such that
can assai it, and whose ability is conceded by ALL
as Mr.. Campbell'si is, can not help but make
most formidable candidate"
You don't take any stock, then, In this howl
about the Hamilton County gang infuence7''
Everybody knows just what think about that
kind of business, and If Mr.. Campbell is elected,
the people of this State will find out that Mr..
Campbell thinks just exactly as do. There win
be no George Cox appointed by Campbell to fill
one of the most important offices in the State"
Mr.. AL. CARLISLE,
OF Columbiana County, who was one of Meals
managers, was met in the Neal House tonight
and, in an answer to n question of The Enquirer
as to how he felt now that the convention was
over, said
Have you read AL Thurmans interview In to-
nights Post? Well, them's my sentiments. Every
friend of Larry Neal is a true blue Democrat, and
we're all for the ticket and we're going to elect
It, too.''

VIRGIL y. KLINE
He. Too, Predicts Success, and Joins
Hands for Democratic Victory.


Hon. Virgil p. Kline when introduced, bowed
and smiled as II well pleased. He did not look
at all broken up over the turn affairs had taken,
In the happiest manner possible he spoke as
follows:
Mr.. PRESIDENT LADIES AND GENTLEMEN 1t Is
entirely unnecessary for me to say that am just
as well satisfied with the platform and the work
of this convention, so far, as Mr.. Campbell or
Mr.. Neal. If you think there are any sulkers in
Cuyahoga County, II you think that there is not
any enthusiasm among any of my ardent friends
that came down here with me, you are entirely
misjudging them. am for the cause. 1 believe
in striking straight from the shoulder for tariff
reform, and believe that fair and candid dis
cussion of this question before the intelligent
people of Ohio, will make votes and demonstrate
this fully. want the Democratic party of Ohio
to justify the faith the old and the young have
In 1t, and / want them to be useful in my day
and generation to this tax-ridden and burdened
country.
Gentlemen OF the convention, am Just as
cheerful at my own funeral as can be. You can
not detect any malice in my breast. want to
expend that upon the other fellows. And II Mr.
Campbell and the rest OF the ticket that Is to be
nominated here this afternoon want good. strong
ringing Democratic speeches on the tariff from
Northern Ohio let me know.

HON. VI. ID. HARTER's SPEECH.
Cincinnati Enquirer.1

Elsewhere in this impression of The Enquirer
given an extended, and it is hoped an intellect
ual, summary of the address of Mr.. NJ. D. Har-
ter, Chairman OF the Democratic Convention,
AMI we only regret that the extreme pressure
upon our columns prohibits the publication of
the speech in full. Mr.. IIarler was uniortun-
ately in bad voice and could not, throughout
make himself wholly heard by the great throng
but his mastery argument will be heard by n far
larger audience, to wit the whole people of Ohio,
during the coming campaign. 1t is full OF infor-
nation for the laborcr, the artisan the farmer,
and the manufactures, and represents the results
of extended and careful study upon the greatest
of economic questions by one of the leading man.

tained we find nothing to condemn and every
thing to praise. 1t was such a days work MS the
history of politics furnishes but once In a gcner-
alton. IL was happy in the choice of Candidates.
happy in the enunciatlon of principles, most
happy of all in the common consent OF all con.
testants. Mr.. Meals grand following is prouder
OF their hero than ever. Mr.. Kline's adhcrents
respect him more warmly even than before, for
the good work of both is indclibly marked upon
the results OF the convention, and their names
VIII be fruitfully cherished in the affections of
the people.
And thus united MS rarely before. enthusiastic
with just cause for enthusiasm, confident with
confidence based upon grand cause grandly
handled, the party of the people moves on to
victory. Sinking no issue, meeting all righteous
demands, taking no step backward, its legions
sweep onward to a triumph in Ohio this fall and
to grander triumph throughout the Nation in
the fall of 1892.

I Mr. Neal was greeted most enthusiastically
| He acknowledged the applause in the following
| graceful manner:
Mr.. CHAIRMAN AND GENTLEMEN OF THE Con-
| vENTIoN l appreciate most highly, aud thank
you most heartily for this enthusiastic reception
Such an expression of your good will end friend
ship awaken within me feelings of the liveliest
emotion and deepest gratitude tApplausel
The office of Governor Of Ohio is one worthy
Of the ambition of any man, and yet, my friends
can say TO you in all candor and sincerity that
have no heartfelt regrets that did not receive
the nomination for that Office at your hands
to-day. / have full knowledge of the RESPONSE
bilities and duties which such a nomination
would have implied, and a corresponding dis
trust of my ability to assume such responsible
ties and thoroughly discharge them.
lam here to say to you this afternoon that my
friend, for he is my friend, whom you have just
nominated, will do no more for himself in this
campaign than will do for him. I rejoice, my
friends, that your platform has declared in such
clear and straightforward, ,unequivocal language,
the position of our party upon the great ques-
tions at issue between us and the Republican
party and that il presents the leading issue in
this campaign the question of reform and reduc-
tion of the tariff.
The Republican system of protection Is
masterpiece OF injustice, inequality and Oppres-
sion, and II will be to me labor of love to aid in
securing It's overthrow. The maintenance of
such n system will enslave the majority OF the
people OF this great country; 1t will destroy ind
viduai and private enterprise, and by fostering
Trusts and monopolies. thereby concentrating in
the hands of the few the wealth of tho country.
creating plutocracy and arstocracy of wealth
which will be hostile to our form OF Government,
and there II 1t is not eliminated imperi our
very institutions.
What can be more reasonable and just than
the doctrine that Unnecessary taxation IL unjust
Mxation7 What moro odious and hateful than
the doctrine for protection's sake?
do not believe, my friends that majority
of the people of this State or this country will
uphold and maintain the latter against the
former. The Republican polav a protection
has already. In fact. been reputaated by the peo
pie of this county lApplause.I
II our Presidents were elected by the popular
vote instead of under tho Electoral system, Gro

live in history one of the greatest American
statesmen, would to-day be President of tho
United States Tremendous applausel, receiving,
as he did, nearly 100000 votes more than the

the White House.
The aggregate majorities for the Democratic
candidates for Congress In the different districts
OF the different States In the last Presidential
election exceeded by more than 100000 the votes
cast for the Republican candidates for Congress,
and this emphasizes most distinctly that the
Republican cry of protection to American labor
has ceased TO be II formidable engine for politl-
cal mischief.

| We concur with the late republican convention
In Iowa in its declaration that "the protective
system fosters trusts and trade conspracies.' '
| Both OF the great political parties concede the
federal government Is collecting revenues largely
In excess of its necessities. Both have repeatedly
| promised to dispose of this surplus by re-
ducing taxation The democratic party at
tempted to do this in good faith, and through its
representatives In congress passed a tariff reduc-
tion measure which sought to tighten everybody's
burden by repeating the entire duties upon salt,
lumber, tin-p plate and wool, and by reducing the
duties upon wOolen goods, sugar iron, etc. When
this bill went to the republican senators for their
action, they repudiated 1t and called 1t n free
trade measure" although its average rate of duty
was ten per cent. higher than the war tariff Of
1862. They passed substitute which increased
the duties on wooden goods, lin plate and other
necessities but lessened the revenues of tho coun
try by taking the taxes off OF cigars tobacco and
alcohol They denied the people cheaper homes
food and clothing
The difference in these measures constitutes
the practical difference between the parties. We
believe in tariff restricted to the needs of the
government, yet SO adjusted as to prevent inc
/. qualities afford full compensation to labor, en-
courage productive industries and destroy mo-
nopolies. We intend, upon our return to power,
to revise the tariff in that spirit We shall do
nothing rash. We shall not destroy, but REFORM
When we consider that the republican manu-
facturerers of New England are clamoring for
free iron and coal: that The electrical convention
calls for free copper; while other interests here
and there Join us In the demand for FREQ raw ma
terial and when we observe that the most ultra
protectionists are advocating an abrogation of
duties upon ri, articles which have been consol
iduted into trusts it looks "a If, in the adyanc-
ing sentiments of the country the democratic
party was not only right, but also certain Of sue
cess.
We are also called upon to rebuke the hypocrisy
of the republican party In It's dealings with thesoI
diers to whose yalor and patriotism we owe an
inextinguishable debt That party IL the only
one which. Mt any time since 1861. has had stimuli.
taneous control OF all branches of the federal gov.
ernment. Consequently. II the nation has in any
way or Mt auy time been derelict in It's duty to
It's defenders. the responsibiity lies with the re-
publican party. II that pa,ty desired to pass n
service pension law, as pretended by its present
state,platiorm IL has had countless opportunitles
