| Iutionary ancestor learned my re
publicanism, (cries Of good, good and
applause.) They taught me TO believe
that the first and primary duty of the
government OF the United States was
to take care OF the interests Of the peo-
pie and to preserve all these great guar
antees Of fthe constitution which 10 in
tended to secure TO US, and To our chill
| dren the inalienable right Of popular
self.goyernment applause. One OF
tho instrumentalities by which that
great right Is to be preserved is the In
stitution under God, OF the Republican
party, and We are to-day in the execu-
ton OF the great trust which has been
contided to us, to lay the foundation of
another triumph upon tho coming OF
November, which shall assnre to us,
and for years 70 come to our prosperity,
that this Is the happiest, the most
prosperous, the freest and the grandest
government upon the earth (applause.)
