Major Mckinley received greeting from his
New-Jersey friends that he will long remember.
He said to them:

am glad to welcome you. rny fellow-citizens
from the State and home o. my distinguishes
associate on the National ticket. that splendid
and typical representative American. that hon

ret A. Hobart. loud and prolonged cheers)
No ordinary event could have brought you
1000 miles TO the city of Canton: no ordinary
political contest could have assembled on this
lawn thousands and tens Of thousands OF men
and women from every quarter Of this country
II IS only because in the public mind there exists
belief that we are confronted with a great pun
lie peril, and because we mean by our votes 70
shun and avoid il. This is the meaning OF it all.
We have experienced only calamity by follow
ing false teachers. We don't propose to ex-
perience another and even greater calamity D!
following the same teachers. We have already
withstood the experience OF partial free trade
policy the result Of which your eioqueht
spokesman has so f1tly described; a policy that
has brought idleness upon our workngmen ana
extinguished the fires in our furnaces This mas
been your experience for the last three ana a
half years.
1t is proposed now TO add to that. as though
we had not suffered enough. that fatal heresy
that somehow oi another people can get rieh Dy
debasng currency. They nave reduced
wages reduced employment, and now they
TO reduce the value Of the money in which
they are paid. SO that we are suffering In both
directions What want in the United states
is a stable tariff law that will raise enough
money to pay all the current expenses of the
Government. that Will obviate the necessity OF
borrowing and lay up a surplus TO wipe out the
existing debt In 1880 the Government Of the
United States paid off its entire debt 1t was
$50 900 900 in 1904 and the people believed it
neyer could be paid off. 1t was reduced TO $40
GDO000 after 1872. and by pursuing protective
policy for thrty-hve years every dollar was
paid By pursuing the same policy from 1861
10 1853 we paid off more than twothirds of our
great war debt reaching more than S2,0oO.-
000000 and II our prosperity had not been in
terrupted and the Republican policy abandoned
We would have wiped 1t all off By to-day.
loud cheers.)
RETURN TO THE AMERICAN POLICY.
Now what we want 10 do is to get back to
that good american patriotic protective policy
that stands for the American people and Ameri-
can development against all the world besides
Then want TO pursue a sound iirancal syS-
TEN and have every dollar in this country 10
be as sound as the Government itself, and as
unquestioned in its integrity as the nag that
waves above us. We want public honor kept
inviolate. We want to teach and practise rever-
ence for public law. respect for our incorrupu-
bic judiciary, love OF our free institutions. love
for our flag and zeal for public and private
honor Let that be the shield OF exalted Ameri-
can citizenship. Great applause)
