WAvERLY, Ia, Aug. Ex-senator Allison
opened the campaign OF the Republicans
here this afternoon in strenR speech. l.
ives generally known that the speech was
ing the campaign and there was large as
semblage in consequence. After a brief
reference 10 the candidates of the respec-

believed the Republican party would WIN
in the coming contest because its politics
are such IS to secure the confidence and
support of majority Of the people Of the
United States, constituionaly expressed,
If only that majority can vote and be fairly
counted. The record of the present ad
ministration has been such as to inspire the
public with confidence Our complications
with Chilli were disposed of in q manner 20
reflect credit upon our country. Industries
have been prosperous and many new ones
established, while internal commerce has
grown beyond reasonable computation
our foreign commerce has received a new
impetus under recent legislation of Con-
gress, supplemented by friendly admin is-
tration; our trade, foreign and domestic,
is in healthy condition.; our finances are
in healthy condition; our currency, am-
pie in volume and uniform in value, is be-
ing steadily increased under the legislation
OF 1890.
