The new dominion. [volume] (Morgantown, W. Va.) 1876-1904, 1892-10-22

he does not 90 Oh hall cooked; tnat
he would not deceive to obtain par
tisan advantage; and that he not on
| " has the ability TO understand the
questions of the day, but that he has
made patient, careful and conscien-
tiols investigation Of them before he
speaks. That is the kind of man
WIN. L. Wilson is, and hence he will
always have the ear OF the people of
his district as he had it last Sstur-
day.
Mr.. Wilson exploded to the salts
faction of all several pet theories Of
the opposition. These theories are
well known, but not so well believed.
This he showed, in an entertaining
vein that put every one in good hus
NOR, and at the same time he dealt
so clearly with all matters under dis
cussion as to be convincing as to his
position on them being the correct
one. From the bank business, and
he simply referred to the money plank
in the Democratic platform to show
the proper view of the Democracy on
that question, on through with the
tariff { and how he proved it is a tax
no one can deny) and the force bill
(Which he showed would put the
power with the federal government
for appointing election supervisors
forever and day did he discuss all
the great measures which appeal
most strongly to the consideration
of American voters. There was not
sentiment to which he gave expires
sion that does not merit the voice of
assent of all the American people
In striking the chord of Democracy
he simply strikes that popular chord
which more and more men year by
year are learning to love to hear. He
made speech that the cordial re-
cepticn of its every phrase and par
agraph was never more heartily
evinced by big crowd. There was
not murmer of dissention nor EN-.
barrassing interruption by extrem
lists of other faith, but his words
were met with sweet accord and were
pulctuated at short intervals by
hearty and prolonged applause. Mr.
wilson's appearance among our peo
pie under any circumstances would
be the motive Of a generous degree
of welcoming enthusiasm, and his
appearance last Saturday was no ex-
ception to the rule that would always
be in force. His speech pleased the
people, and they went from his pres
ence rejoicing.
For it was Democratic day.
Mr.. Wilson was followed by Hon.
b. f. Martin, of Grafton, formerly
Representative in Congress from this
district, who spoke for over an hour
on the great issues involved in the
campaign, and revived the happy inn
pressions he had made years ago.
Mr.. Martin has faculty of getting
down to the primary principles of a
question and propounding it in a
clear and forcible light. Nor did he
fail to do this on Saturday. Without
repetition of what had been gone
over by the former speaker, he put
to the consideration of the great
mass of voters present, in their true
light, those matters best worthy of
the thought of the suffragist bent
strictly upon the ideas of good gov
eminent. The crowd was not disaf
fected during his discourse, and was
entertained to the final phrase of his
splendid oratorical effort. 1t was a
splendid speech, splendidly received
For it was Democratic day.
In blaze of glory the afternoon
meeting came to an end, which re-
ceived an impetus for further lon
gevity by the meeting at night, held
in Academy hall, and addressed by
w. G. Mexican, of Uniontown, aud
Mr.. Wilson. Mr.. Mexican is a young
man who has the Democratic cause
thoroughly at heart and possesses
the admirable qualities to eloquently
express his views, which he did to
the satisfaction of the great crowd
in the building on that evening.
His speech lasted for an hour, and
when he tried to close there were
cries of ''go on, go on Mr.. Wilson
added additional glory to himself by
his talk in the evening, which he
continued for an entertaining hour.
The night meeting was what the day
one had been, lacking in numbers to
some extent, majority of the peo-
pie from the country having gone to
their homes. But before going they
rejoiced to have been here.
For it was Democratic day.
The memories of that day will not
soon be forgotten. 1t was the high
water mark of crowds that have been
here in the memory of many voters,
and they are glad to have helped to
swell the number of people to the
glorious aggregate attained. Last
Saturday was dav that opposition
organizations may attempt to eclipse,
but the effort will be unavailine.. 1t
was our day Of days, till the news
shall come that Cleveland and Ste
venson, and Wilson, and McCorkle
are elected, as that news is sure to
come.
For it was Democratic day.
NOTES.
Greensboro sent up delegation
of 200 enthusiastic democrats and
admirers of Mr. Wilson, besides the
good band of that place, which did
service in the melody features.
Morgan district, the up creek por-
ton, furnished the biggest team.
1t consisted of 20 horses, a boy on
each horse, pulling float decorated
profusely with evergreens and hunt
ing. 1t made pretty sight.
The Bunner Band that headed the
Morgan District delegation is pro
nounced a dandy. They attracted
much attention. 1t has ten mem
bers.
The procession was compelled to
double up-vehicles driving two
and three abreast in order that all
might get into town at once. The
three principal streets were full of
carriages and wagons at the same
time and it was with difficulty the
the Marshals could mass the crowd
sufficiently to get all the people into
the town.
The only trouble about the Cleye-
land hats was there were not enough
| to supply the demand, although
