WELL SPOKEN.

William H. Russelrs Address TO tho
Massachusetts Democrats.
BosToN. Oct. 9.-In his speech before
the Democratic state convention here,
Hon. William r. Russell, nominee for
governor. spoke OF the part played by
the Democratic party in the history OF
the nation, and said that in it's march
it was confronted with open and secret
opponents-Republicans and Know
Nothings, who had formed q union.
Referring to the new tariff bill he said
''The measure is not as thorough as
many of US desired, and our disappoint-
ment is the keener because occasi oned
by opposition within onr ranks"
He asserted that the Democratic party
does not intend to reopen the whole
tariff question. Business interests are
entitled to a period of rest and GER
tainty, and the new tariff law to a full
and fair trial. After discussing other
national issues, he referred to the A. P.
A. in these words:
Its success means permanent di-
visions of the people in public affairs
upon religious lines, and return to the
bigotry, intolerance and hatred of
earlier days. In this free republic, where
liberty and equity are its very life, and
universal suffrage its broad and safe
foundation, there is no place for any
political secret organization"

glance to the Populist party.

He said grave crisis had been reache
in the government and it had to
be met. He quoted from the letter
of Senator Jones to his constituents
and from the speeches OF Senators Teller
and Wolcott during the debate IN oon-
greas on the repeal of the purchasing
clause OF the Sherman act. He said
that the Republican party and Demo-
cratic party were opposed to free silver.
MIR. Stevens insisted that the senti-
ment of both parties was against the
restoration OF silver without the consent
OF England. He concluded:
IL shall now and hereafter cooperate
with the political party which makes
silver the predominant national ques-
tion, whatever that party may be-"
