thusiastic crowd cheered him as he
stepped from the Pennsylvania station,
and he received a great ovation later in

dress the Republican mass- meeting.
The spacious building was crowded TO

APPEAL TO THE REPUBLICANS
not to allow the Democratic party to
capture the state. and appealed to Re-
publicans everywhere to prevent the
Democrats from electing majority to
the next house of representatives.. On
this point he said: ''By every attempt,
gentlemen, serious and sober, in
diridually and associated, in every
form in which political action
can be taken the Democratic
party expects to wound and destroy the
doctrine of protection, and l have come
TO raise my voice In Pennsylvania to ask
the support OF protection to see that the
offspring shall not be straneled. If my
voice can have any influence with q
single man among those who are assent

of ours is merely local. and next year we

disorganizatiou. If this fight is con-
tinued with disastrous end il will be a
long time, fear, before you will see the
Republican party of Pennsylvania come
forth in its original strength and
its invlncible power. Now Is the time to
stand forth. 1t is in the power of every
Republican in the state to join with the
grea. throng IN behalf of the issue of
protection, upon which Pennsylvania. as
/ have said before, is the leading state in
the Union. l do not mean TO imply at
all, gentlemen, that the result of the
elections for congress, whether we lose,
or gain, that it will in any great
degree effect the Republican
party. l believe that from the
presidency of John Quincy Adams to
Abraham Lincoln, with one exception,
every administration lost its secoL.i con-
