yesterday with greetings TO Major Nc
kinley. The first was a party from the
southern part of the county, coming over
the Pennsylvania lines in regular trains
The other three were specials of nine

ing was held in the Tabernacle. The in
troductory address was delivered by ex-
State Senator ;. p. Wolcott
A delegation from Springfield, O., ar
rived on n special train of seven coaches.
1t brought the Heavyweight Mckinley
and Hobart club, other clubs and citizens
generally. After a short parade in the
business portion of the city the crowd as
sembled in the Tabernacle, where addresses
were made by Judge John c. Miller and
Major Mckinley Mr.. Mckinley said in
part:
II never stand before Springfield and
Clark county audience without having
come unbidden to my lips some of the
precious names associated with that en-
terprising city. 1t is not given to many
cities to have furnished, as yours has, as
distinguished soldier and as valued n
statesman as the eX-speaker of the ma
tional house of Representatives, j. Warren
Kiefer. Nor is it given to many cities to
have furnished, as yours has, that splen
did ideal business man and distinguished
executive, the present governor of Ohio
Asa Bushnell
Mr. Cyrus II. Mccormick, of Chicago,
who is at the head of one of the great har-
vesting machine companies recently wrote
as follows:
We have never before been so at a loss
to lay out our plans and work for the next
season as we are at this time. If we
thought that the country would go for the
unlimited coinage of silver wc would not
wish to run our shops for more than one
half their capacity
1--WE have in that statement descrip-
ton Ofour business trouble, and it teaches
a striking lesson which must impress
every thinking man. The manufacturer
does not know how TO stand fornext years
business because of the financial uncer-
tainty created by the attitude of one of
the great political parties OF the country,
in combination with two other parties IL
free silver is to be inaugurated in this
country IL will change all values, disar-
range the relation of labor to production
of raw material to the finished product,
and unsettlo all conditions of existing
business and prosperity. This uncertainty
makes every business man pause, make,
every business enterprise halt, and while
| they pause and halt the home of every
/ wOrkingman is filed with despair.
/ 'Iassume that what would be true in the
case Of the harvesting machine company
| of Chicago would be true of every harvest
ing machine concern in Springfield and
throughout the country Take your own
/ city, which has been one of the busiest CEN
ters in the manufacture Of agricultural i'm
| plements employing 1900 laborers, or
once did. To cut that employment in two
would be not only "A calamity TO labor,
/ but would be calamity to every interest
in your city and to every farmer in your
county, Business Of every character is
/ so intorwoven so dependent and interde-
/ pendent upon every other business, that
hurt to one is hurt to the other.
''We must have stability in values and
| confidence in national and individual in
tegrity before we can have real and per-
manent prosperity. We must have conf
dence that our legislation will supply ade-
quate money for the public treasury and
protect American labor and American in
terests in every part of the country. We
must get over the idea, if we ever had it,
| that there is any legerdemain in finances; ;
| that congress by its mere breath can make
something out Of nothing; that it can de-
cree that hfty-two cents worth of silver

To the Portage county delegation Major
Mckinley said:
'Our contention this year appeals to the
best aspirations of American citizenship
and INVOLVES just as certainly as any con-
test in the past ever involved the honor
and good faith of the country. We can
not close our eyes to the fact that if by
our ballots we lower the credit of the gov
ernment, repudiate its honest obligations
| in whole or in part, or deliberately depre-
| cate n vast amount of its currency, we
| have aimed a blow at its hitherto unsul-
| lied name and honor.
"Ihis is the year to settle for all time
/ that our national honor will not and can
not be tainted. No state of the Union
/ ought to declare for financial policy that
/ encourages the violation of contracts, the
population Of debts or the debasement
/ of our circulating medium. 1t should be
/ the common aim and pride Of all that we
are Americans and intend at all hazards
and all times to preserve American iuteg-
rity and uphold public law,
"Ihe grand old western reserve is full
| Of patriotic reconecGons. Tint grand old
/ western reserve must roll up such "a Re
publican majority in November as il has
| never before recorded and once more
/ demonstrate its patriotism and love of
/ country. Never has the Republican cause
more clearly appealed to conscience and
/ intelligence than in this campaign Your
| glorious past appeals to you TO abato no
/ effort because the tide of public opinion
seems 50 strongly in your favor"
The Ideal Panacea.
James l., Francis, Alderman, Chicago says;

/ Ideal Panacea for Coughs, Colds and Lung
Complaints, having used it in my family for
