xx-o0vxRNon cAlRBELL SPEAKS.
Ex.(}ovwnor James Z. Campbell. Of
Ohio toI,ovsd by referrine TO the action
Of the Republicans In seizinR tho larger
halls In Providence and preventing the
Democrats from using them:
He quoted statements from BIaines
"Tvensy Year, in Con0ressv and nom
speech OF 0srheld's IN the House OF hep:
resentatives to the effect that the period
from 1850 to 1880 was one OF pr9:nesity, q
he had been criticised for declaring tnat
Blame had made such statement.
HOW CAMPBELL WAS DErEATED.
The speaker then read description By
T. v. Powderly of the condition OF the la
borers in tho Connellsville coke region 10
mnder tbs high tariff, and said: when
my friend Major Mckinley replies TO me At
long range tonight. want hin. to tell how
many times Carnegie. Phipps Co. went
into their pockets to contribute TO my de-
feat. and whether that money was not
taken out OF the wages of their men. To-
DAYS pagers say Carnegie Is ready for an
other sliding SCALE He must have been
contributing to this election"
He spoke of the closing OF on oatmeal

fostered by the Mckinley act, aud said he
had prophesied II Eve months ago.
HIGH TARIFF MEANS Low WAGES.
His closing point was with reference to
the effect of an increase In the tariff upon
wages, Mckinley had epitomized the
tariff thus: I'VE make the foreign manu-
fscturer pay into the treasury the diner
ence between his labor and our labor-cost
before we allow him to enter the American
market" The census reports show
the average tariff on all manufactures
in 1860. under q Democratic tarih,
to have been "A pei cent. and the
average wage-factor. or amount PAID
for labor on every dollars. worth OF pro-
duction. Is cents. They only claimed pro-
lection TO the amount OF the difference IN
the wages between this country and
Europe. and We gave them Within cent
of all they paid for wages. In 1870 they
had the tariff up to "a cents on the dol
lar. and wages down to 29 cents.
In 1880 they had the tariff up to 46 cents
and wages down to % cents. In 1880,
when they passed the Mckinley bill upon
the theory of protection TO equalize the
difference in labor they had the tam upon
manufactures up to 60 cents and wages
down to II cents" That is enough to show
the falsity of the Republican statement,
wherever made, that high tarif has raised
wages.
Mr.. CLEVELAND SHAKES HANDS.
Mr.. Cleveland dined with d. Z. B. An.
drews, president of Brown University, and
was then taken to the City Hall, which
had been rendered for the reception by
the mayor, with the consent of the Board
of Aldermen. The ex-President was
escorted to the reception on the first floor.
Y-Governor John W. Davis and Charles
Ii. German. the candidate for Lieutenant
Governor, received with him.
The reception began at 1880. and for two
hours stream of men poured into the
building and fled past the ex-President.
Democratic rallies were omitted that the
voters might have an opportunity to shake
hands with Mr.. Cleveland, and nearly
5000 ayailed themselves of that privilege,
while crowd was seeking admission when
the doors were closed.
He was greeted with many compliments
and good wishes by those who passed HIM,
and he entered into the handshaking with
such vigor that the perspiration poured
from his face. and he was thoroughly ex-
hausted before 1t was over.
