| Mr.. Cleveland then rose to reply, and
| again pandemonium regned. 1t was one
| terrible roar and to add to the excitement
| the immense standing crowd of 10000
people swsyed back and forth and crushed
| in upon the press inclosure. One
| newspaper man nearest the crowd was
| pressed against his table and tainted with
| the pain caused by the pressure on his chest.
! He was revived in a few minutes and then
| the police got to work on the crowd. Gradu-
| ally it fell back and the excitement SUBJ
sided. Mr. Cleveland began to speak in the
| midst of the noise and his voice could not be
heard ten feet from the platform. The peo-

| quieted down and the resonant tones Of the
| ex.President were heard in every part OF
the house. He was listened to attentively
and interrupted but seldom. Applause came
at the end OF his speech.
TEXT OF HIS SPEECH.
His speech was as follows:
| Mr.. CHAIRMAN AND GENTLEMEE-The message
| you deliver from the national democracy
| arouses within me emotions which would be
| well nigh overwhelming il did not recognize
| here assembled representatives of the great
! party who must share with me the responsi-

| in the reflection that | have been selected
| merely 10 stand for the principles and purposes
| to which my party is pledged, and for the en-
| forcement and supremacy OF which all who
| have any right to claim democratic fellowship
must constantly and persistently labor.
| Our party responsibility is indeed great We
| assume a momentous obligation Of our coun-
| trYmen, when in return for their trust and CON
| fidence. we promise them rectihcation of their
| wrong, and better realization of the advantages
which are due to them under our free anG be-
nefcent institutions. But, il our responsibility
is great our party is strong. It is strong in its
| sympathy with the needs of the people, in its
| insistence upon the exercise of governmental
| powers strictly within the constitutional per
mission the people have granted, and in its will
hngness TO risk its hfe and hope upon the peo-
| PIES intelligence and patriotism. Never has
| great party, intent upon the promotion OF right
| and Justice, had better incentive for effort
than is now presented to us.
RoBBING THE POOR
| Turning our eyes to the plain people OF the

a tariff system that un1ustly and relentlsssly
