ures Of the Republican party 70 prove itself
the friend Of the workingman. and he was
especially happy in his slluslon 70 the late
great object lesson and iruit OF the tree
of Protection in the riots lately prevailing
at Homestead.
He showed them that the party of
Blaine and Carnegie, and Sherman,
the party of the rniliOnaires, was not the
party for their SURFACES but for their cordial
detestation. and that with the Republican
1nisrule we have been Of late laborng under,
poor man poorer. He arrayed and hRyed
