The Wilmington daily Republican. (Wilmington, Del.) 1890-1902, 1896-11-03
FINAL UNION RALLY.
G institutional Convention Discussed nt thO
Auditorium.

AudltOrlum.
Union Republicans closed the campaign
last night with rousing meeting nt the
Auditorium. Henry z. Conrad presided
and the speakers were John II. Hoffecket
and Walter Hayes. In the speech Of Mr.
llolfeckcr he said that he would vote for
Mr.. Mckinley because hc'is the only man
nominated this time for President that
stands for protection. As IL manufactured
OF thirty years standing Mr. Hoffecker
said that he endorsed protection because
under II the country had prosperity, and
when Mckinley Is elected the country will
nave protective tariff in the place Of tho
Wilson bill In his speech at Dover Mr..
Bryan said that the classes were against
the masses. The public schools of the
country are open to all and the poor man's
children has the same advantages Of edu-
Gu ion rs those of tho rich man.
Both have the same opportunity, and
therefore If there is anyelaSs it is certainly
not against the masses. Capital and labor
cannot be divorced, for any manufacturer
knows that the Wage.earnor has the same
interests rs those Of his employer and what
Will benefit one is bound to benefit the
other. Mr. Hutfccker closed by giving an
account of his nomination and ended by
saying that If elected 10 will devote his
best efforts TO giving the state a good ad
mlnlstra@on without favor to any one
man or faction. =
Mr.. I0tftGker in conclusion referred to
the election Of Anthony Higgins to the
Senatorship. In the session Of the Legis-
lature of 1889, Mr.. Hoffecker was speaker
of the house and gave tho casting vote
which elected Mr.. Higgins to the Senate
notwithstanding the Speakers preference
for George V, Massey. At that time Mr..
Hot1ecker sacrificed his personal feeling
for the good Of his party.
WALTER II. HAYES SPEAKS.
The meeting closed with an interesting
address by Walter II. Hayes, who warmed
it up for the voters and received cries from
the audience ITO give it to them" In speak,
ing on rational issues Mr.. Hayes said that
tho Republicans proposed to have a debt
paying and not a debt-making country; it
proposed to open tho mills and give pros
p2rity to all; that it proposed that the laws
Of the United States should be recognized
throughout the country, and it did not pro-
pose that either public or private contract
should be violated Whenever one side or
the other got tired Of it, as the Democrats
want it violated. The Republicans did not
propose to pack tho Supreme Court.
il such thing should come to pass the
people one day would have one thing and
the next day something else. The Demo-
Gratis one day would hive the l6 to /.
about which they are talking and the next
day it might be changed to 10 to l or II to
/. Under such q system there would be no
stability and the Republicans proposed to
