CANTON WORKINGyIEN
Add Their Tribute of Respect tt
Candidate Mckinley.
PENNSYLVANIA AND NEW YORK,

Delegations to the Republican Mecca,
and the Candidate Speaks TO All on Their
Duty as Voters.
CANTON, O., Oct. 16.-The first train
load of callers to see Major Mckinley yes
terday arrived in special train of six
cars over the Cleveland, Canton and
Southern railroad. The party was COM
posed of farmers and business men from
northern Erie county, Pa, and were in
charge Of w. J. Sell. This delegation was
held ten or fifteen minutes for n second
train of eight coaches filled with business
mon, farmers and other citizens of Cory,
Pa, and the two parties were combined
and marched to the Mckinley home, where
one address sufliced for both S. A. Smith
spoke for the Cory party and w. S. Sell
for the Erie party.
A delegation from western New.York,
consisting of professional men of the
cities, and farmers, dairymen and grape
growers from the surrounding country,
arrived later and paid their respects to
the Republican standard bearer. The dele
cation, which filled eight coaches, left
Dunkirk, NY, Wednesday night. The
Introductory address was made by Con-
gresham w. b. Hooke, of Fredonia.
The most surprising event of the day
was the informal call of the working peo-
| pie of Canton. They came in thousands
from the l25 factories large and small, in
this city, many of them with their wives
and children There was an unusual
tremor in Major McEinloy's voice when
he arose to respond to the sentiments Of
the venerable spokesmen from local fac
tories who addressed him.
To the Pennsylvania delegations Major
Mckinley said
you are here because you love your
homes, your families and your country,
and because you would have expression
given on the third day of November of
your highest hopes, your best thoughts
and your loftiest aspirations for this great,
free country. If tho people of this coun-
try want to put into public administra-
ton and law any settled policy, they must
have both the executive office and the con-
gress of the United States, You cannot
embody your purposes into law by having
the one or the other-you must have both
and 1 trust that the people Of Pennsyl-
vania and the people of all the states of
the Union will see to it that the national
house and the senate of the United States
are not neglected at the polls next No
vember.
'In this contest we have the aid and as
sistance of tens Of thousands of Demo-
Gratis, in every part of the country, who
think more oflthe honor of the government
than they do of their old political associa-
ton. We bid them welcome welcome
allies in this great conflict for the main
tenance of the public honor. Some people
say we have not enough money. The
trouble is, my fellow citizens, we have not
enough confidence to put in circulation
90 the money we now have. We have just as
much money as we ever had in all oul
history, and it is as good as it ever was
but the trouble is those who have it art
distrustful of the future and they won
invest it in industries and give employ
ment to labor. What we want to do frs
: of all is to restore public and private con
fidence"
Major Mckinley then quoted from
Macaulay's History of England to show
the evils of debased currency, and con
tinued
'If there is any one thing that should b,
honest it is the money that represents the
wealth and labor of the American nation
Then, my fellow citizens, we want an op
portunity to earn that money, and tn,
way to do that is not to do our work il
Europe but to do it at home. The way tt
do that is to restore the protective polio!
' that will put tariff high enough upo1
foreign competing goods that will enable
, us to do all our own manufacturing anC
preserve our home market for our owl
American people"
To the New York delegation Mr.. Nc
Kinley said
"You bring sunshine and cheer ant
promises of an unprecedented Republican
majority this year in the great Empir
state of New York. l recall as l speak Il
Z you, my visit to Dunkirk in October, 1884
You were then in the midst of q grea

that election was evidently satisfactory

publican, Levi p. Morton, was electe

"The great Empire state is now re
spected everywhere for her free independ
g ent and powerful voice in the oounsels o
the nation. She stands proudly erect thi
year for country, patriotism and nationa
honor. She refuses to wear a party yokI
which would lead to national dishonor ol

stars upon every block and square, ap
pealing for national honor and exaltatioI
Of the American name. 1t is a sight which
inspires the young and makes the ole

the free. 1t was never stained in defeat
and never will be. 1t was never lowered
in dishonor and never will be-"
