! There was the distinguished senator
from Ohio asserting to the people OF
+ this country upon the floor of congress
that he was willing to accept compro-
mise after compromise. but that the
time had at last come when he could go
with them no longer; that until GER
tain things were accomplished he could
not act with them
THE SITUATION TODAY
is but repetition of history. Compro-
mise after compromise has been sub
mitted to by these silver Republicans,
in the hope that the party of Their
choice and love Would at last bring 10
the people the relief which they desired.

party in 1856, has been led off by an
other administration until it has de-
serted its traditions and its platform
and these Republicans have a right TO
say to their Republican associates.
We will go with you no longer until
this nation Isl redeemed" (Applause)
We do not ask those who present
this nomination to pledge their future
services to the Democratic party. The
same intelligence which directs them
today in the discharge of this duty
will be with them four years from now
to direct them then in the discharge of
the duties that will then arise. The
same patriotism that leads them to-
day in what they do will be with them
four years from now to guide and di-
rect them.
We trust them now, we shall trust
them then. The Democratic party has
proven itself worthy of their confidence
today and it receives their support.

believe that John G.. Carlisle did not
exaggerate the truth when he said:
THE consumma.ion of this scheme
means more of misery to the human
race than all the wars. pestilences and
fainineS that ever occurred in the his

among you is willing 80 be a partner
in a conspiracy that has for it's object
the contamination of this scheme so
eloqueltly and So forcibIy described
than the silver Republicans have arisen
