William n. C,hlind, who In short i'd
dress no,tntrd the principal speaker Of
the evening.
NJ. Lanp pbcll said: ut Is generally
said throughout tho State that Belmont
county may 90 Democratic, and Lam
here to insist that you be careful about
which Of the candidates for Representa-.

State"
lie called attention 10 the fact that
Governor Foraker had said while
there TINT strikes are O sign OF pros.
parity, and ContrNdiCting 1t, applied
thu Democratic free trade panaCea to
theCAuse Of the trouble. LIE said that
before the war, in tho good old Demo.
cratic times, there were no strikes, and
advised that We return TO those good old
times and have no mOru strikes to hold
up wages. A voice In tho audience In
terruptrd with "rhere were no workmen
worth mentioning in tue country who
could afford astrke."
Mr.. Campbell did not answer, bu,
went on to quote from Governor Fora
ker's -peeCllal &enia, aud to COntradiCtit
with genuine Democratic argument. At
this point, tile speaker was interrupted
again, by abrass band on the outside.
After few minutes silence he began
upon another quotation from one OF
the Governors speeches. 1t was also
about strikes aud had particular refer
enCe 10 the strike OF the long.shoremen
in London. Mr.. Campbell dealt with
this quotation In a rather humorous
manner, but did not attempt to reinte
the Governors statement that the
Euglish strike was attributable to
free trade more than anything else.
Instead Oi considering the strike in
England caused by the poverty, ,primar-
ily brought about by free trade, he
depicted the sadness aud sorrow caused
by the miners strike in Illinois. He
told how much sympathy he has for
these poor fellows, and did not forget
Casually Of COursp) to say that he, like
other tender hearted people, had given
u few dollars TO relieve their necessities.
Mr.. Campbell walked round len
acre lot yet to point few feet from
where he started, and gave u few words
oL arenment against the sOda.ash duty.
He said he had been informed by glass
manufacturers that the duty on soda
ash Is responsible for the dullness OF the
glaSs trade, while, In iaCt, US he admitted
Foraker had said, Democrats and Repub.
licans agree that tho dullness Is OH nc
count Of the over production caused by
the Sprnging up ol new factories In the
gas region.
He made the statement very positively
that all the RnLi.third.torm Republicans
will vote for him. This assertion drew
forth cheers from the audience which
seemed to inspire the speaker with still
greater confidence In his positions Mr..
Campbrll here decided 10 discontinue
the discussion OF the tariff question, aud
leave II to Mr.. 0uthwaith aud Allen
0'Myers.
llG turned himself loose on the State
Government, and warned the people Of
BulaitU that In tho event OF Foraker's
election, aud their not giving him a re.
spectacle majority, he would probably
appoiut Board Of Public Affairs 10 run
thu city, Just as he claims Foraker did In
Hamilton. In his own way he de.
sctibed the non. partisan Board OF Public
Affairs which Is Ia charge OF Hamilton,
and warned BellNire people that they
may expect the same thing In case For.
akpr is elected. He thanked God that
thv Republican Legislature In drawing
in public Affairs bill had forgotten TO In.
Clnde the school boards In the depart.
invnls undUF the control OF the Boards,
aud ielt suie that In case q Foraker
Legislature Is elected II will amend the
bill M that tho Board will take charge ot
thu school teachers aud children. He
hoped IN that event, thatth Governor
would 10 allowed 10 appoint nurses 10
take rlarge Of the children when born,
aud thus relieve tho people Of the care
Of all matters from tho cradle 10 the
grave.
Mr. Campbell then showed his dislike
ior lhe COlOred people, by crltlClSing
Foraker for appointing q 0olored hack
diver TO the position Of ClUIk Oi an
election board, The speaker paid Sena'
tOr sherman quito a high compliment,
by admitting that while he Is opposed
70 Nlr, sherman politically, hO believes
him to he an honest aud honorable man,
and that hO would not knowingly tell q
iaSehoOd even In u political speech, 70.
leiling To the laut that Dir. Sherman
had qualified In a very gOnllemanly
maunrr, inisshllBmeht h0 lad beOn led
into making. MF. Campbell HtAleB that
II lie Is elected Governor he will recon.
mend to tile l.VglSlatura that II repeal
all laws which give the Governor tho
power to appoint any board for any city.
