ATTORNEY GENERAL STOCKTON.
Attorney General Stockton followed the
Governor in an eloquent, mastery ex
position OF the party's career in this State
during the last quarter of century. His
allusion to the fight between him and
Albeit in the convention that nominated
George B. Mcclellan evoked the widest
kind of applause. He paid an eloquent
tribute to the faithfulness Of Albeit and
reviewed his participation in the struggle
to secure equal taxation for the people of
New Jersey.
DISTRICT ATTORNEY WINFIELD.
District Attorney Winfield was the
next speaker. He prefaced his remarks
with number of apt but humorous illus
trations. He said the Republican party
WAS after grub like procession follow
ing acorpSe. In reference to Grubb's re-
cent remarks concerning his climb in the
up hill fight, he said that his slide down
would be like that of one who attempted
to climb greasy pole.
Mr.. Winfield made strong answer to
the question, why am 1 a Democrat?n
He referred to an assertion made by Gar
field in speech in New York and quoted
him as saying:-"The fame of Hamilton
is waxing stronger; the fame of Jeffer-
son is weakening. We are drifting to-
ward strong government, and for one
am glad of it."
The speaker, after discussing the vari-
ous plans of government from which the
Constitution of the United States was de-
vised. declared that the Republican party
was drifting toward policy of centrali-
cation of government. His speech made
a great impression, especially upon the
young men of the audience. whose con-
yictions were no doubt strengthened
by it.
Candidate Mcdonald closed the meet
ing with a neat and eloquent speech, in
which he appealed for the united support
OF the Democratic party for the county
ticket. His reference to Dennis Nc
Laughlin as candidate for County Clerk,
his ''old friend and at one time his an
tagonist.n was warmly applauded.
He need not have appealed for support
for Bruggemann as a candidate for Direc-
name caused shout that rolled up from
the parquet and reached the dome.
''As to myself, said Mr.. Mcdonald in
closing, 'if you elect me you simply
make me your public servant. l am
pledged to nothing but what my party
pledges me. shall work in the interests
of the entire people,"
