MR.. HILLS personal LIBERTY sLo"AN'
A cunning friend OF mine has raised the cry OF
personal liberty. forgetting that persona npery
the cry that gave birth TO the Hepup".a'

liberty as a watchword TO pander to the passions oi

A PERSONAL INDULGENCE.
will have to ask you to pardon me for referring
to Hill. / once was candidate for Governor OF
this State, and WAS beaten by 1900. Senator Hill
was never tired of telling about that until he was
beaten last year by 14sooo and It Is now an indul-
gence OF my personal devil to allude to Mr. Hill ami
his experience with big maJorities
You were elected. but counted out" said some
one in the audience
1T all amounts to the same thing" said Mr..
Fassett.
Intellectual strabismus is serious ,ns thing for

CONCERNING NATIONAL ISSUES.
Mr. Fassett then took up the financial Issue,
showing the Cleveland Administration has nearly
undone the good work OF ne Harrison Admins
tration in reducing the National debt. But go
where he might, Mr.. Fassett could not escape
from his favorlte topic Senator Hill. He held
that the country had paid mighty price 20 learn
what Democracy could do in control Of the Ma
ton. Every one knew what 1t had cost here In
New-York.
He rang the changes on the subject OF home rule
and personal liberty. and showed what the Re-
publican Constitutional Convention had done in
giving to the State home rule forever. He showed
how the excise law was passed by Tammany
Legislature ani signed by a Tammany Governor
and how 1t had been used b. Tammany az
means OF enrichment by blackmailing the 5000
saloon keepers OF the city Of New-York. He
asked II Tammany would repeal the excise law.
and emphaticaly answered the query himself. 1t
was the same old Tammany. However much
men might differ regarding 1t. the liquor question
was a proper subject for legislation. 1t should
be taken out OF politics. He himself favored
high license on spirituous liquors and low
license on beer and light wines. Mr.. Fassett
closed with a strong plea for patriotic action.
MR. SUTHERLAND INTRODUCED.
Then Chairman Mitchell introduced William
A. Sutherland as the representative of New-York
on the Republican National Committee. He said
in part:
