Reeds New York Speech.
(Biddeford Times. J

Thomas B. Reeds great speech at the
Cooper Union in New York Saturday night
was the actual opening of the Republican
campaign in that state. To be called upon
to make that speech was great honor, not
only to the ex-speaker himself, but to his
district and to the state from which he
comes. Reed faced that immense audi
ence as the practically acknowledged leader
of the Republican party. He was greeted
with tumultuous shouts as the next president
of the United States. He spoke IN the
place made famous by Lincoln In his his
torical speech of 1860 and he occupied
practi ,ally the same position as leader OF
his party that Lincoln did then.
No better man could have been selected
to fire the first broadside against Tammany
and the state machine than the Hon. L. Is.
Reed. No other man in the country could
have come so near doing justice to the
cause and the occasion. Speaking with all
the o, estige of his position of natural prom
inence he painted the present and past OF
the d amocratic party as only be can pic
ture them. The New York Press says that
no su h terrific arraigument of the Democ-
racy, no such magnificent vindication OF
Republican principles, no such strong appeal
to American patriotism, has been heard 10
that tty in many day. Those who have
heard Mr.. Reed and who can imagine him
adore ssing that sureing and enthusiastic
audience, can well believe it.
There are greater orators than Thomas
B. Reed, there are men who can weary
with more figures which prove nothing, OF
muddle with elaborate and complicated
arguments, there are men who can shout
louder ard talk more wildly, but the men
are fl indeed who can make as effective
a campaign speech, especially when the
sui ect happens to be the imbecility of the
Demo cratic party.
