"You are here to celebrate a victory
won, not by a single party, but by the
people Of all parties. I go back to my
| public duties at the capital encouraged
by your confidence, but deeply con-
scious of the grave responsibilities
which your action of yesterday i'm

my countrymen their sympathy and
support in the solution of the great
problems that rest upon the United

will humbly petition the guidance of
that Divine Ruler who has never failed
this government through all of its vicis

and shook many grimy hand.
drizzling rain began to fall, but
this did not deter big crowds from
turning out at East Palestine, New
Galillee and New Brigton.
AT Rochester 5000 braved the rain

reached Allegheny, but d big crowd
was in waiting and delegation headed
by Mayor Diehl of Pittsburg and Mayor
Wyman of Allegheny clambered
aboard They were received by the
president and warm greetings were ex-
changed. The president asked as to
the results in Pennsylvania and evinc-
ed great interest when told that the
majority would reach 100000. He asked
also as to Pennsylvania congressional
delegate and received like satisfactory
speeches Meantime the crowds outside
were hurrahing, and the president bow
ed his acknowledgements.
Owing to extensive depot changes IL
was thought to be risky to stop the
train in the midst of a great crowd
there, so the presidential cars were de-
tached and run to the suburb of Shady
side, thus avoiding possible danger, but
those who had gathered
to give hearty greeting. The president
greatly regretted the necessity of this
move.
The following are among the many
congratulatory kilograms received by
the president to-day:

at your reelection.
