detracting from his high honors and
from his great personal worth. to con-
slider the financial policy presented by
the Democratic platform and decide for

for you and for your own Interests than
the policy SO ably supported by your
townsman. If we present to you enat
which is good, we beg you to accept
it, even though it is opposed to those
who live among you. We have people
in our state who believe THAI Senator
Sherman's policy is the wisest one; but
/ believe that the American people will
decide that the United States is strong
enough TO legislate for its own people
on every question without asking the
consent or aid of any other nation on
earth. (Cheering) l thank you for this
vast asSemblage here, and beg you to
realize the duties which rest upon
American citizens. There are some who
believe that only in times of war can
people prove their patriotism. 1 was
too young to prove my patriotism in
the time Of war; but l glory that in q
country like this

and every day gives those who live
in the country an opportunity TO
prove their devotion, and in the cam
paign upon which we are now enter

tition of the campaign of 1776, there is
an opportunity to prove whether you
are patriots OF tories. cloud cheers).

proceed toward Canton?" was the
candidates smiling query, and the
question was answered by laughter
and cries of affirmation. There were
