Republicans to stand by the state, and
encourage home industries. He also
| spoke of the coming election and warned
| the Republicans of the city to see to it
| that the Democratic gerrymander of the
| wards did not succeed. The speech was
| loudly applauded. Governor C1eaves was
| obliged to leave early to catch the train
| for the East
