He said in Fairfield, Sept. IS, 1870:
1.-The democracy, as usual, are loud in
their opposition, but what did they ever
do when they had a chance? Here in
Iowa they stole the school fund, and
nationally they stole the arsenals, the
navy, the treasury, everything that was
not red hot, and created the very devils
rebellion. And these men appear and
ask for your support. They should
come On Blended knee asking your for
giyeness for the unspeakable crimes
they have committed and the wretched
miseries inflicted upon our common
country
He said in Keokuk. Sept. l6, 1871:
'The record Of the republican party
appeals to the candid judgment of all
men as unimpeachable, save, perhaps,
that it was too lenient with the leading
democratic conspiratOrs. The same old
gang, save those who were shot or hung,
are again conspiring TO get possession
of the government next year. Woe to
them. for the loyal hosts will crush
them, and crush them forever and for
ever out of all possible danger of such a
misfortune to our common country"
He said at OskalOosa, Sept. %, 1872:

democratic party?"
lie said at Monona. Sept. II. 1874:
There can be no doubt about the CUES
ton at all. With greenbacks and
national bank notes our business needs
are well met. There can be no better
unity of the paper currency than these.
But the assaults of 4 party which,
through its financial legislation, inflicted
untold wrongs and robberies upon the
people by permitting banks without a
solid basis 10 issue circulating note
The fact is, gentlemen, the
democracy never has been able to CON-
prchend the financial question. Be
tween its inherent dishonesty and ap-
parent senillty 1t makes petty but not
unusual exhibition of its corporate,
consolidated idiocy."
