on the Conservatism, Intelligence,
virtue and Lofty Patriotism of
the American People.

Bloomington, ILL.,, August A hearty
welcome was given Hon. A. E. Stevenson
on his arrival here at ESQ o'clock this
afternoon. A big crowd gathered at the
Union station. Carriages took the party
to Franklin square, where, just across
the street from the Stevenson home was
the speakers stand.
Judge Lawrence Weldon welcomed Mr..
Stevenson and eulogized his life and char
acter In speech OF twenty minutes.
Mr.. Stevenson replied. in part, as fol-
lows:
"All that genius in ages past have con-
tributed to the worlds treasury OF knowl-
