The chairman, rtttI "a very hrcf nd
dress OF welcome introduced Colonel Nc
Clurc as an editor who had done much in
the dime If Lincoln AMI Grant TO help
them and who was doing much for
Cleveland now Colonel Mcclure was
enthusastica che,rel, and said in part:
This is the first time In my life thot 7 have
appeared ia n campaign IN New Euw' nd, CX-
cept when / came to speak in suppo'J u Ahra-
ham Lincoln, and later in support of General
Grant. | now come TO speak In IA ar al

the oppressed. / come tonight fur the some
purpose ,u the people Of Boston. / am IUou.l
Ia have horne some small part OF the honor Of
delivering the colored man; and II / can do
something toward libeIating tie white man
of New England.
A. look over your NV England names I
see that many Of the best ones are w.ih mo.
cannot dnd an Adams or Quincy but W O
Is viii mp.au4 see that the son OF your great
war governor is in the same attitude, AMI a' So
the on Z everett. And hope Mas tchg g.'tt5
will not dishOnor herself by defeating I'm.
IsHe You have had Governor Mckinley IN
Boston. have never been able to quite catcl
mp with him II any one in his auui nee had
risen and asked him 20 read what thc Demo
cratic plat form does say in regard TO be Cur'
rency, he would have been Obliged to change
his argument or else acknowledge that he dill
not know.
He know there Is no plank in that plat
form thai advocated free trade. Nobody ogt-
side "a lunatic asylum thinks OF having free
trade. unlc-- IL L. Mr.. Mckinley himself.
Samuel J. Tilden was elected to the pre- i
dency by quarter OF a million of votes upon
platform of
Tariff for Revenue Only,
and he said: Protect your industries Tor
th,Y. Zion,
they will compete with any country ia the
world"
Mr.. Mckinley saws: "Washington made II o
first tariff law, and Madison reported &. Docs
Cleveland know more aHOut the constitution
than Madison?" didn't say that he a. Iut
Mr.. Mckinley doesn't seem 90 know what Mr..
Mad himself thought Of that tariff bin
when he reported IL.
The spc aker then read m extract from
what he said was the speech Of Mr.. Ns,di-
son, made in con sr.~S ut that time. anl
which was to The effect that Mr.. Madison
did not intend nor desire that the tariff
s'oull he pernanent thing. He also
w. in 'IvOr of commerce being rs free
ald little restrict d rs possible. Coutinu-
lag, Colonel Mc5lu.e said:
The cattle trust, the largest of all the trusts
In our land, paid elUDUJO to get an honest cleo
tion In New York. Then they wanted tlri;T
on hides, and Governor Mckinley put one on.
Then the conrrcssmen from Massachusetts
said, "Put II on. II you dare" Then Nr. Ne.
Kinley, who is yeryoa ing, said, Very well,
then, I'll take IL Off" But then the cattle
trust sail, "Here, we paid spot cash for this,
and We ought To have it," Then Mr.. Mckn-
ley said. "All right; I'll put IL back again"
But then the men from Massachusetts said.
"Put II on again, and Wen knock il hirh'r
than Glroy's Kite" So Governor Mcki luy
took II oil again. And that matter Of the slUJ..
w with the cattle trust
Has Not Yet Been Settled.
The speaker then cited many things Of
practical use TO show that the Mckinley
bill taxes things so that articles bought
by wealthy people are as cheap as posi-
ble while ordinary qualities and grades
of goods are heavily taxed. For instance,
he said, on sealskin sacks the tax was re
duccd 33 per cent, while on seal plush
sacks, worn by those who cannot aiTorj 90
pay the immense pric for genuine seal
skin, the tax was greatly increased. Con-
tinuing, he said:
Here Is a linen handkerchief. There wa
never a linen handkerchief made IN This great
land. Not one linen handkerchief And
there never will be during the life OF Governor
Mckinley, at least. We pay co per cent. tarii
on linen handkcrchiefs. and Il is impossible
10 produce them Lere because the climate is
not suited 10 its growth.
PEOPLE of Boston, We must have free raw
materials from top 20 bottom. or New ENGLAND
will 90 into decay.
There were Just five linen mills in this coun-
try before the tariff law was passed and Ve
have Just those five linen mills today, and
only those five.
