MIR. CLEVELAND SPEAKS.

With tribute to the strength and
enthusiasm of the first voters, former
President Cleveland in Newark, n. j.,
last night began his second speech of
the present campaign. He had waited
10 minutes for the cessation of the
cheering and noise that his appearance
brought forth, and tor 80 minutes after
he began his address the 5000 persons
crowded together on the tan-bark OF
riding academy alternately listened and
cheered. The occasion was the closing
democratic rally of the campaign,
rally under the auspices of a club Of
FIRST voters.
The ex-President again talked about
tariff reform and reiterated the propo-
sition he made in the same place twenty
FIVE years ago that protection isrobbery.
He showed that the trust have grown up
since his administration as a result Of
the Mckinley and Dingley tariff laws,
and appealed TO Americans to know il
they will be content to accept servituce
and bounty from the benefciaries Of
government favoritism. He declared
that democratic conservatism was never
more needed in the governmental than now.
Among other things be said.
"That the consumers Of the land who
then in QSS2) asked for bread were given
stone is proof of the futility of any
hope for tariff reformation by party tied
hand and foot in the bonds of sordidness
and reckless greed.
"Again | use my words of 20 years
ago: The right of the government to
exact tribute from the citizens is limited
by its exact necessities, and every cent
taken from the people beyond that re-
quired for their protection is no better than
robbery.
"Have our people reached such astate
of listless indifference that they see moth
ing wrong in scheme of multiplication
which supplies to foreign consumers ar
ticles of necessary use which are the work
of American hands and American in
genuity at a cheaper rate than they can
be purchased by American citizensS''

ON TUESDAY next, in addition to vot-
ING for presidential electors, the SUIT
fragans of this district will be again
called upon To- select candidate for
Congress. Mr.. John +. Rixey, who
has or tn past eight years represented
the Eighth district, has virtually no oP-
position, nor has he had since he was first
nominated by the democratic convention
il this city in 1896. The democrats
wisely manifest no disposition to decline
the services of an able representative,
and the republicans with their side
shows are impotent 10 change the exist
ing order of things. Mr.. Rixey has
devoted his time and talents to the IN
terests of the people he represents, and
persons of all shades OF political opinion
find nothing to condemn or criticise in
his course. With his eyes and ears
ever open to further any movement
which may be inaugurated to enhance
the prosperity or better the conditions
of this district, he has shown himself to
be the right man in the right place, and
while through no fault Of his own, be
may not have successfully landed all he
has aimed at, there is much apparent as
the fruits OF his labors. Besides all
this. individual or private matters
brought to his attention have ever met
with prompt response. The people OF
the Eighth district naturally congratu-
late themselves upon the fact that Mr..
Rixey will again succeed himself.
