address an Irish audience without she'd
ding barrels of tears over the eyictlonS
in Ireland, but L never heard one make
the true statement that there are every
year in New York city more evictions
for rent than in the whole Emerald
Isle"
i The speaker then read description
by I. Y. Powderly of the condition of
laborers in the Connellsville coke re-
gion to show there was not universal
prosperity under high tariff. "When
my friend Maj. Mckinley replies to NE
at long range tonight, / want him to tell
how many times Carnegie, Phipps d
Co. went into their pockets to contrib
ute to my defeat, and whether that
money was not
Taken Out of Their Men.
''Today paper says Carnegie is
ready for a sliding scale. He must have
been contributing to this election"
His closing point was with reference to
the effect of an increase in tariff upon
wages. Mckinley had epitomized the
tariff thus: 1--WE make the foreign man.
ufacturer pay into the treasury the diff
ference between his labor cost and our
labor cost before we allow him to enter
the American market" The census re-
ports show the average tariff on all
manufactures in 1860, under Demo-
cratic tariff, at "a per cent, and the aver
age wage factor, or amount paid
for labor on every dollars pro-
duction, at % cents. They only
claimed protection to the amount of the
difference in the wages factor between
this country and Europe, and we gave
within one cent Of all they paid for
wages.
SIN 1870 they had the tariff up to "a
cents on the dollar and wages down to
% cents. In 1880 they had the tariff up
to As cents and wages down to % cents.
III 1890 when they passed the Mckinley
bill upon the theory of protection to
equalize the difference in labor, they
had the tariff upon manufactures up to
90 cents and wages down to II cents.
THAT is enough TO show the falsity of
the Republican statement, wherever
made, that high tariffs have raised
wages"
The speaker closed as follows: If the
Democracy of Rhode Island are true to
themselves and their suffrages are un-
purchased you Will send the most joyful
note out to the people of this country
next Wednesday night that has been
heard in many d long year. l beseech
YOU to do this for yourselves and for the
Democracy of the country, and for the
country itself, and over and above all
that, for equality of rights for men be-
fore the law"
EX-GoY. Campbell's speech was re-
eceived symDathetically, but without
loild demonstration, His witty manner
took with the audience, and he was sew
seral times interrupted with laughter.

Mr.. Cleveland dined with D. E. B.
Andrews. president of Brown univer-
sity, and was then taken TO the city
hall. which had been rendered for the
reception by the mayor, with the con-
sent of the board of aldermen. The

with him. The reception began at T:30
and for two hours a stream of men
poured into the building and filed past
the eX-president. Democratic rallies
were Omitted, that the voters might
have an opportunity to shake hands
with Mr.. Cleveland, and nearly 5000
awaited themselves of that privilege,
while a crowd was seeking adj
closed. The ex-president was greeted
with many compliments and good
wishes by those who passed him, and
he entered into the handshaking with
such vigor that the perspiration poured
from his face and he was thoroughly
exhausted before it was over. At the
close of the reception Mr.. Cleveland
was taken to the mayors office. He had
intended to leave for Boston at 10
o'clock, but changed his mind and
shortly before that hour was driven to
the Narragansett house, where he will
stay until as tomorrow evening.
