Some of the leading democrats and inde

when they saw tbo largo attendance and tbc
enthusiasm manifested both in tbo conven

Mr. Charles Hoover was nominated for

Mr. Nouns seemed to wilt under the lashIng -

finally turned bis attention to tno issues of

Senator Maudorsou arrived from Omaha
wbilo Mr. Diclimison was speaking and ul-
thoucli ho was billed to speak in the evening
the crowd insisted upon hearing from him
right there and then. The senator suid that
tuis was a peculiar campaign. It was a cam
paign ot education , und not a time for story
telling or for lioiatorous excitement. Ttiero
wcro bcrlous issues to he discussed and
meu who undertook to uddicss tbo people
this full should realize that there was im
perative need of serious thought and study
of great national problems which were of
vital interest to every citizen. He bulievod
i hat disaster would follow if cither Cleve
land or \ \ oaver should succeed in winning
the election. The only way to continue the
prosperity of the country was to continue
the great national policy which hud made
prosperity possible , by the election of Har-
rloon aud Reid.
The senator then asked the convention Ic
excuse him from further speaking us bo was
booked for an address of some length in the
OVCUIIIB. Ho wa ? heartily cheered.

Mr. \ \ obster was escorted from the depot to

There must bavo boon several hundred
people who found It impossible to get Into

wns signalled by shouts and cheers. Ho
spoke for morn than two houro , substan
tially us follows :
Mr. WiiliRtcr'n Sip ch.
While trnvollnr In Buropc for plonsuronnd
rcnrcntlon I was lumosl constantly in view of
national Hips whose dark colors represented
the rules of qHcens und oinpororn. They
wcro emblems of countries that were not bus-
tnlnctl by the will of the people , but were
emblems of n govort.mental power that reslud
in the will ol the ruler , und where tbo masses
of Ibo people wore mudo subordtnulo lo , und
under subjection lo the will of the throne.
When the grout steamship brouehl Its load
of passeucors within sight of th" American
r.oil there went up to tbo foremast the stars
und stripes of our own glorious country. JJv-
pry American citrn on board hulled the
bricbt stripes nnd glittering slurs with do-
licht. Jt wns the emhlnm of u rouuir ? of
prosperity. It wns tbe emblem of u
country of uuiversnl liberty. It was
the emblem of a country whoso
government rests entirely upau the will of
the people. It was the oinblom of n country
where cveryman's vote counts us much ns
tbut of every other muu. It wus the emblem
of a country where thouvcuues to trade nnd
prosperity were equally open Irnm tbo hum
blest to the btrougebt citizen. It wus the
emblem ol a eoutrtry thai rests upon patriot
ism of th people , nud oucbt to cxclto iho r.o-
mirution und druw forth words of prai.so
from nil people who live beneath the shadow
of Us folds.
When I reached niy own state of Nebraska
1 found here a party In the midbt of n
political campaign bas a ou a platform thnt
bus in it no slncli1 word of praise lor our
common country , nor any wordb of commen
dation for O'O liberty and prosperity wbloh
tbe government bus brought to the people
That platform is n condemnation , from ono
end to tbo other of It , nf tbo government nud
of tbo people. It doeiaros in the very
first sentence ot the prenmble thut this na
tion of ours is on the verge of moral , politi-
cr.l und material ruin. \ \ by , within the
lifetime of the very people who drafted nnd
approved that condemning senlonce , the
finger of time points to u material prosperity
dfvelopnd iu tlio United Stales which tie
other nation in the world ever witnessed.
Nun nnil Tliuu.
Go bnctt to IbflO. At the cud of Iho free
trade rule ol the democratic partv nud with'
: < UU'JOIUU ' ( of people we hud out : ilUUO , miles
of railroad. During the thirty two years
that have passed MUCO then the demands for
commerce and for travel have increased nt
such u wonderful rate that it now
utilizes 105,000 miles of railroad.
These railroads bnvo penetrated the
most remote regions ot tbo coun
try. They have opened up the uveaues
through tbo vast prairies ot tue west. They
uuvo penetrated to tbo mining regions of
tbe mountains. They have gone ID tbe lum
ber legions of the northwest. They buve
spread to tbo grazing regions of Texas. They
are gathering in the cotton from the lields of
the south. They hnvo knitted and woven
together tbe vast nrea of our immense coun
try , making us ono solid people , giving facili
ties lor the rapid interchange ol commodities
thut have benefited nud enhanced commerce ,
manufacture and agriculture.
Look over the map of Europe. All tbo
railroads of free trade Europe are pot equal
to the commercial facilities of America. Add
to Europe the railroad lines ol Asia , Mexico
nnd boutb America , ana still the single gov
ernment of tbe United Stn'oi Blonds at tbo
bead of the list. This o 10 achievement of
the world's enterprise is within the limits of
our own country , nnd within tbo memory of
ihe men who approved thnt condemning sen
tence. There is maritod by this ono enter
prise u prosperity that dees not point to ma
terial ruin , but to the bupplnesss and enjoy
ment of nil tbo people.
Still ttoro uio paople who condemn tbo
building of tbo railroads nna the develop
ment of the country produced thereby , just
us there uro others in the domojratlc party
who abuse the tariff and the benefits which
have grown outol ihut , equally lo the benefit
of the whole people , by tno bulldiuc of rail
roads.
JiIiiKtraUtcl It ; nn Incident. v
Lot mo illustrate this by an incident , us
told to me by one of luejudcosof Frederirks-
burg , Va. Oul from Fredericksburg there is
u range of mountains which have never been
penetrated by n railroad. There were tcat-
tercd ulong UP upon the bill hides here and
there , single log babitatioiib. The livelihood
of thnt people consibtod in cutting down the
timber , but theie was no way to transport ir
to the market. With this there existed an
impoverished condition , by reason of
being cut off from the advantages of com
merce nnd tbo public intirkels. An enter
prising mini proposed to build u line of rail
road to the lumber regions. The road wus
constructed. Tbc time bud come when Ibo
firbl rmlroud engine nud tram of carb was to
travel to the end nf tbu road. Ono of these
inhabitants from tbo hillsides , who
had never been a railroad m his
life , vent do n to see the mon
ster engine and lo carry the news
homo to hit , family of what It was tbut he
BOW. When ho returned bit- wife ubkad him
to describe it. From bis ignorance of tbt
world bo was unutiln lo toll her what il wnc
that he saw , nt-d taid : "Wife , I don'l know
what it was , unless it was that dumuud tarifl
the dcmocralB say is ruining Iho country. "
Still tte populists say the nation is on Ibc
vcrco of material ruin. Back in 1800 , when
the democratic party ai.d free trade were ut
tbo helm , the vulue of tbo entire farm pro
ducts of America were but * lWri.OOUUUO (
In Iblll the population of the couu <

within thut samei period of time , uud withir.
the memory ol tbo men who penned iboat
words condemning the prosperity of ttic
country , tbo value nf the furm product ol
America bad increased more thun twice ns
rapidly us had the population of the country ,
uud the vulue of thib furm product wui
measured nt 4firJO,030OOD. Here is the ovl
deuce of an increase of prosperity to tin
vast agricultural regions of this country
which Btuudt- without u parallel any couu
try of thu European continent. It Is i
rec&rd of prosperity never experience !
by the farmers wiihln the sumo number o
years , Irom tba time when George Washing
tou hlgut'd the constitution of iho Unllui

During that same thirty years the we alt

At tno tlmo when the republican party 11 n
