| puuliCdH, WuO udS won ndtlOndl lame
in the past few years, visited his old
home In Des Moines a few days ago,
and spoke to the young men who gave
him reception as follows:
young men need to come TO the
front to stand guard against an enemy
OF guile and conspiracy. There are
nearly $4,000, 600 voters In America.
Nearly S,OO0,000 OF them are Repub.
licans. Yet tho party OF The minority,
a party with the audacity and industry
almost OF Satan, essays TO rule in the
republic. OF this great band OF voters
nearly or quite 100000 have come
into the franchise since the war for
the Union. To this 5000, 900 voter 5
the Democratic war TO sundcr the
Union, and the successful Republican
| effort to save 1t, is history. not II per-
sonal experience. This vast new ele-
ment at the polls cannot be too often
warned against the Democratic party.
1t seeks power knowing it has not the
majority to win it. In the eleven
| states OF the south it carries them all
| by violence and fraud, although eight
OF them have strong and honest Re-
| publican majorities. 1t successfully
| DISTINGUISHES one million colOred Re-
! publlcans in the south, and then by
! massing the votes OF ignorant and VI
| cious voters in the larger cities OF the
| south, IL seeks National empire on
| the Same line. 1t has, therefore, TO
| campaign in fact only in three or four
northern states, while the Republican
| party has to campaign for every foot
| OF ground that 1t holds or wins. And
it is party OF wonderful strength,
and must have under God n great mis-
sion surely TO perform, when, with a
million of its men DISTINGUISHED it
! seeks and finds u majority in the re-
mainder OF the Nation.
"ln the face OF the facts the DEM
ocratic party has the audacity to come
and ask an Iowa Republican to vote
with it this year. Every young Re-
! publican in Iowa OF spirit and fair
play, will say, when your party allows
| the million DISTINGUISHED Republicans
OF the south to vote will be time
enough for IL 10 ask me to vote its
ticket. see some colored Republi-
cans here, and | always am warmed
Mt the heart when | SEQ their race,
the most patient the world has ever
known, on the skirmish line OF politi.
cal action. The black men OF America,
growing in Intelligence as no race in
the world has ever grown in the same
length of time, and who love America
as their home as dearly as white men
can, bear the destiny OF the Republi-
can party with them. The time will
come when their mighty strength and
love OF country will be the salvation
Of the party which gave them free
dom. For a Democrat to ask the
vote OF colored man in Iowa for the
party which is DISTINGUISHING mil
ZION colored men in the south Is such
an insult as only Democrat could
Offer to free man. The timo will
come when the colored men of Amer.
lea will divide. But in this genera
ton OF bla tx men who still remember
the lash OF slavery, the Republican
party is the ship to all Colored men,
rything else is the sea.
"lOwa Republican. who do not be-
lieve in prohibition are now being
asked TO vote tho Democratic ticket.
What Democratic ticket? The ticket
that represent not only Democratic
| ambition in Iowa, but still more the
ambition OF the Solid South to rule
in the Nation. Having made the
| South solid by violence and wrong,
they would now divide the North. In
the South they elect all presidential
| electors By the vote OF the whole state
| In the North they would as they have
already done in Michigan, steal the
| electoral votes OF the minority dis
! tricts by this new device. When they
can accomplish this they will have
| acquired as absolute denomination Of
Solid South. Governor Boies seeing
the people of Iowa alarmed by this
new Democratic conspiracy. sought in
his speech in this city this week TO
lull them into security by admitting
! that this plan had been adopted by
! the Democrats in Michigan, but he
would see to it that they should not be
