GOOD WORDS FOR CLEVELAND AND STEVEN
SON,
saying that both were tried, able and sim
cere men, too sincere, he said. and honor
able to take nomination without incur
ring its full party obligation or to stand on
platform without accepting and main
tanning its doctrine. To that doctrine, he
said, it would be the privilege of Republi-
cans to hold them. On it would the
campaign be fought and won. The
records of both parties for the past could
be overlooked, and the only need was to nix
attention upon the policies for the future.
The speaker then reviewed the Demo-
cratic platform and said the Democratic
party of today turns down Thomas Jeffer-
son, Andrew jackson and all its older men
and repudiates alike their constituted in
depreciation, their. political beliefs and
their acts, and announces instead exactly
the same doctrine with Jefferson Davis
and the confederate states and pro-
poses that Grover Cleveland, in
your name, shall carry it through,
If they want thats There is no conceiy
able doubt that the Democratic party in
national convention assembled did want 1t.
Their platform committee reported some
thing else, q mild suggestion that at least
the tariff might do o little something TO
main tain American wages, but the conven-
tion promptly threw that aside and took
the matter into their own hands and framed
declaration for tariff for revenue only.
He vigorously supported the Mckin-
ley law. 1t has enabled manu-
facturers to establish new in
dustries, attracted foreign capital,
created better times for American produce.
etc. The Republican party was denounced
by the Democrats for 'sham reoi procity."
This sham reciprocity consists in allowing
foreign producers of coffee, tea, sugar,
molasses, hides and skins to send us these
products free of duty provided they admit
a faily equivalent qnantlty of our products
to the ports either free or ratified, Reduc-
lions in duties, should the Democrats come
into power, would simply throw away
the advantage by this administration for
the admission of our products to foreign
markets and yet continue to let farmers
send their products free. or would they
dare TO put back the old duties on sugar,
tea, coffee and the rest, and put up the
price again to the whole BODY Of our popu-
lation. Ask the people il they want either
one or the other horn of that beautiful
dilemma.
He then compared the foreign policy of
the Democratic end Republican parties,
greatly to the advantage of the latter Our
enemies, he said, have made our campaign
for Us. Hold them to their own deliber-
ately avowed principles. We go before the
people claiming that the Republicans have
given the county clean, honorable, bust
ness like and hlg hly successful administers
ton; that change without cause is bust
ness injury to every citizen, and that there
is no occasion for 2 change. Let Us rise up
and go forward. They have been blended
again to their own destruction and are de-
| livered into our hands.
