The Republican meeting held at Stoys tow 11 last Wednesday afternoon, was one of the most successful that bus been held dur ing the present campaign. Cover's large hail was comfortably tilled with earnest, honest, intelligent voters, eager and anxious to hear the issues of tiie campaign fairly discussed. Captain Adam (irimni, one of the 111. t highly esteemed citizens ot the town, was unanimously chosen lo act as President of the meeting, with Wm. Miller, Esq., Ja cob Zim merman, Joseph Render, Noah ltie secker and J. H. Zimmerman as Vice Pres idents, ami ('apt. Wm. Usurer and Wendell Winters as Secretaries. The Ijunbcrtsville hand arrived in a wagon drawn by sixteen bor-es and played their sweetest music at the opening and cloning of the meeting and at the end of each eech. The seeches were made by John If. Jordan and S. V. Trent, Esqs. The crowd was very enthusias tic and applauded every good point made by the seakcrs in a most hearty manner. The audience was composed of representative men of Stoy-town borough and Quemahon ing township, and if they don't give a good account of themselves next Tuesday we miss our guess largely. The following short sketch ot the Hon. J. II. Lougeiiecker. Republican candidate for State Senator, from the pen of one of his fellow cili.clls. is taken from the Bed ford luiuirrr: Messrs. Eiutors. I have been looking over the history of the lU!.-t regiment of Pennsylvania volunteers as given by Rates in the .'lit volume of his valuable work. It is at all times an interesting history, but is is particularly so just at this time, as the aisive named gentleman, who was the adju tant of the regiment, is the candidate of the Republican arty for the Senate. In look ing over the history I learn that Company I) of that regiment was recruited entirely from Itedford county that Capt. Longe necker went out as a private in that com pany that he was soon promoted to the of fice of Sergeant Major, and on the first of Mav, l.s;3, to a 2d Lieutenancy, and on the -tltli of July, istk'l, to Adjutant of the regi ment. On the iSlth of April, 14, he with the rest of the regiment was taken prisoner and was sent south t a retiel prison, ii which he had to remain until an exchange was made on the 12th of March, lsisV. A man who loves his country always reads with pleasure and interest that part of its history which records the heroic deeds of the brave men who fought to gain and preserve the liberties of the people. How our hearts are filled with patriotic joy when we read what our fathers did in the days of the revolution against the armies of King George. They fought ard conquered those armies and gained for us our liberties, but all that they gained would have been lost if the rebellion had not been put down by the gallant soldiers who went forth to save our goyerment from destruction, enduring all the privations of a soldier's life, baring their breasts to rebel bullets, and, worse t ban all, undergoing the horrors of the rebel prisons. I wish that you Could publish the whole of Rates' history of the 101st regi ment and let the people know what the of ficers and men of that regiment did for their country. Redford county may well be proud of those of her citizens who were in companies P and i. There was no more gallant regiment in the Union armies. In the battle of Fair Oaks, which was a des perate struggle, every third man in the reg iment was either killed or wounded, and in all the subsequent engagements every tuan and ofiicer did bis duty. Of those who composed the regiment when it left Hurris burg on the 27th of February, but few ever returned to their homes. Reliel bullets, the malaria of the Virginia and North Car olina swamp" and rebel prisons sent most of them to th.-ir graves. How glad we should lie to have an opjiortnnity to reward those w hose lives were spared and show our grate ful appreciation of the great services they rendered to our country. No man of all the host that went forth to battle for free government did his duty more courageously and faithfully than the man whose mime stands at the head of this article. Capt. Longcnceker in ca-np or upon the field of lmttle prova l himself a true and noble sol dier and patriot, and in .the halls of ou Legislature was known as an honest man. He deserves to be elected to the Senate by an overw helming majority. AClTIZES. Reply to thk IsmcrENtiEXT Ppv. Eihtob IUralii: The old adage that if you " tramp on a dog's tail he will yell," was verified by the yelling of the "Inde pendent Spy" in the Meyersdale Commacial of last week. This Independent guerrilla was the only one of the guerrillas present at the Regular Republican meeting at the Weller school bause. Dr. Fichtner ex plained the nefarious schemes of the Jnde jiendent squad, and hearing the applause that came from all parts the spv became very indignant. He bad not been cheered when he did the braying of an ass at the Indeiwndent side show held at the same school house some days before, and conse quently was wrothy. At the Regular Re publican meeting there was but one Demo crat and one Independent (the spy himself) present. It is then-fore a lie that there was any itsoii chosen as an officer of that meet ing other than good, honest Republican. Even- person present knows that this was the ltt jKilitical meeting ever held at the Weller school house. Dr. Fichtner, the first sjeaker, was followed by Ed. iScull, Sr., S- V. Trent and David Husband, who all fairly .1,., r-t.-ned wi;ll attention to his ilivenssed the issues of the campaign and masterly present the issues oftliej ere loudly cheered.

When we last week pronounced as a lie and a fraud the card published in the V crat over the signature of James O'Connor we gave our reasons for so doing; subse quent developments fully justify the posi tion we then took and prove it tobei-ormrt. We have betore us a letter from Mr. O'Con nor dated on the 24th, the day the Vrmucrtit was published and ot-markeil the2-V.h,the day afltr it was published, in which he says that the Dtuwcrat suppressed his card announcing bis candidacy and gives bis rea sons for writing the following card : f'rlJow Citizen of Somerset County. 1 am no longer a candidate for the Legis lature. With my best wishes for the success of the best men ard measures, I am respect fully yours, James O'Cox.ior. tk-tober 24, lsS2. In connection with the above facts com pare this card with the one published in the Democrat, and our readers will have no trouble in discerning the fine Roman hand of the " Scientific " in the fraudulent card. From the tenor of Mr. O'Connor's letter to us, it is evident that he feels very sore over the manner in which he has been bulldozed and the treatment he has received at the bands of the Democrat in refusing to adver tise his card, for which he proposed to jiay, and afterwards laying before its readers a bogus card announcing his withdrawal. This whole affair is one of the many ways by which the " Scientific" is trying to trick his way into Congress by cheating voters out of their ballots. It was made necessary, however, by kiscuutract with the Indejiend eut leaders to keep any and all opiaisitiou to their legislative ticket out of the field. To accomplish this end he has entangled himself in a mesh of frauds that will cling to him and all parties com niected w ith him, for all time to come. I'HL'S letter. Although many moons have come and gone since the "Scientific" held his county convention which he tricked into confirming the "Bargain of the Rosses,' his paper, the Ihrniierat, has ne ver found time to publish the open, manly letter of John II. l'hl Esq., in which he withdrew from before the con vention as a candidate. For fear the Irmn rrnt has forgotten the contents of the letter, as it was only read twice in the convention and as it's uncle or brother-in-law hits had the original ubout their clothes ever since, we again kindly publish it as given to us by those who bean! it read : To titr Member of the Itcnivcriittv Convetitum ; Grntlemk.n. 1 hereby witliilraw my name as a eaniliilale tor Siute Sc-nator from this convention, forthe reason that its members are not free to act in the mutter. The as suming boss, although having for years back promised me his most earnest supKirt, has for selfish reasons found it convenient to betray me. The slate was matlu out by him weeks beforehand, and you are here simply to obey (lis behests. As a believer in tine Democracy, 1 was willing to submit my claims to the free and unbiased will of the pe'ople, but when I discuver that, by the artful trickery and skillful manipulations of the boss, the puis have been set up for my opHncnt in Uie lace of his and the Bosses repeated pledges to me mat he would not be a candidate at this true and that 1 should have their united supjiort, 1 most emphatic ally decline to have my candidacy made a farce of before 'the distracted cohorts of machinations." Thanking those of your numlM-r who have acted honestly and in good faith toward me and have not submit ted to boss domination, I remain yery re spectfully, etc. What do the eighty odd of Somerset's mostworthy and respected citizens whs attended the Republican meeting at Meyers dale think of the following, taken from the pa x-r published in that village : Thecec excursion train from Somerset to the Stalwart meeting at this place lust Friday evening consisted of ninety-five souls, by actual count. Of these about twenty-five were honest, resectable citizens who came to the meeting lor honest purposes; about twenty were government officials, their rela tives, henchmen ami scalawags; no loss than fifteen were Democrats, who came out of sympathy for the falling cause, or on bus iness; a few were lndceii(lent Republicans or guerrillas, as Mr.Colborn calls them, who came on special invitations; the residue was a howling rabble of boys, corner loafers and old whiskey -soaks with the foul breath of the grog-shois fresh on their clothes, lured hither by free ride and free whiskey. The agent at the Somerset station inform ed us the evening of the excursion that he had sold 87 tickets. Among the purchasers of tickets were ministers of the gospel, bus iness men, merchants, mechanics and hon est laboring men, almost all of whom bought their own tickets and paid for them. There was not one "dead-head" on the train, ev-y passenger holding a ticket paid for by himself or some jersonal friend. When the train reached Meyersdale there were from 125 to lot) Republican voters on board. These are the facts and there's where it hurts. We have been waited upon by a 'arge number of our fellow citizens, irrespective of party, and asked for the fair naiiie of our good old town and county to publish the real facts in the case. Their scorn und contampt for those who would thus basely slander their neighbors and fellow citizens cannot find expression in words. , place in the henf receive a royal for barking dogs seldom bite.

Morgan, who has always been considered one of our best farmers, bus of late been paying bis atten tion to improving his stock, having recent ly added to his herd of Alderny cattleavery fine registered bull, from the herd of John Hunter Esq., of Philadelphia. Forthedam of this young bull Mr. Hunter paid $4Xi in Kniiland. and his sire was imported at a cost of$."00. We think no finer stock than this has yet been brought to this county. The dwelling house of Fred Gonder, one half mile north of tow n is la-ing finUhed, and bids fair to be the finest country resi dence in our township. Our school is making giant strides toward perfection, under the supervision of Miss Maggie Knepper, of Berlin. The grist mill just south of town is being rebuilt. George Ludy, the owner, expects to have it running in two weeks. Henry Sipe is having the frames for his new mill put in position, and expects to have it running during the week. This is the mill that was destroyed bv fire ten days since. C. En. Herald. A sad accident has happen ed to the Independent Jiarty; they were go ing to bold a political meeting at Rakers ville on Tuesday, October l'tb. at 2 p. iu., and it hapened to die in their hands betore they gut through with it. Gen. Koontx preached the funeral sermon. His text was the same old one that your readers all so well know. The funeral was a small affair. There were about one dozen of mourners to be seen on the ground, eight of whom were Democrats and four Indetiendcnts.

Mr. Editor : The Democracy and their pinis are industriously circulating stories to the effect that when the Independents came to th;s place to hold a meeting they were refused the new school hall, but when the Republicans came for the same purpose they at once received permission to occupy the building. This story is an emphatic lie made out of the whole cloth, and circulated as I have said, for effect, The true statement for which I have authority, is as follows: When the Independent meeting at this place was advertised, the school directors passed a resolution and entered it on their minutes that "Any political party shall have the school hall for the purpose of holding a meeting, on the jwyment of teu dollars." This, you see, includes Inde pendents, sore-heads. Democrats any one with a leu dollar William. - When the In dependents came they wauled the hall, bnt their nieriibers being tew, their purses weak, and their Democratic hounders-on to polit ical nothingness unwilling to assist them, they cuulj not raise the ten dollars, even though the silver-tongued General Koootz was the attraction. " How are the mighty lallen." The time has been, and not long I since, that one hundred dollars could have been raised iu this place to jiy for the hall in which Geo. Koout. was announced to speak aud raised iu a few minutes, too. Now all are "too poor" to do him rever ence. When the Republicans cume they agreed to pay and they have paid the ten dollars, and they got the hall. It was u purely business transaction ; the one party had the money, paid and got the hull the other party had not the money, could not raise it, end weut elsewhere. The teacher of the school is entitled lo sfiecial mention. 1. e very kindly adjourned his school for the time, which of course he could not have been com k-1 led to do but of his fret! good will, like the gentleman that be is he did it, and he has our thanks. This is the little matter that raises so grout u stir, and which a gray-headed man of eighty has been circulating and giving a false coloring to ; which Addison's chiet Democratic son bus been chewing as a deli cious morsel, and spreading among his less finely educated dupes as a dainty tit-bit of Stalwart perfidy. And lo, its all a lie! Poor Indepentleut-i! joor Democrats! poor Koontz! poor dupes ! poor devils all ! Stalwart. Coxeixk.nck, October 27, 1S82. Grand Vtrt hlicx Meetinu at Hooveks Vili.e. The meeting was called to order by George R. Scull Esq., ut 7 p. in., und John Hamer Esq., was unanimously elected pres ident. The following gentlemen were elect ed vice presidents: Lieutenant si. S. Swank, William Rodger, John Weigle, Joseph Mey ers, M. A. Rrubakcr. Secretaries, Ir. J. W. Hamer, C. W. Weigle and F. F. Clark. By this time multitudes had poured in until the house was tilled to overflowing, ami told by their anxious faces they w ished to hear the issues of the day. The grav haired hero as well as the young, came in with smiling faces to hear the origin, doctrine, and result of the Independent Jiarty, and also the evil doctrines of the Democratic party. The president now introduced to the audience Capt. Ed. B. Scull, who gave us the origin of the Independent", and discussed also many other points of interest, nis speech was interrupted several times by applauses thut went up to say, "Give us more Republicanism." We were next addressed by J. II. Jordan, Esq. He recapitulated jurt of the previous scech and sjHjke eloquently in denouncing the doctrine of the Independents, and the evil doings of the Democratic party. A. J. Colborn followed in a very able speech. During the meeting two or three Democrats were unable to sit still. We assume that the guilt of being a Democrat must have op pressed them very much, or that seat-worms were giving them some trouble. The meet ing closed with cheers for the entire Re publican ticket, The Independents have advertised a meeting here for Wednesday evening, No vember 1st. The assumption is at this place that the ludeiiendents are financially gone. Th v only put one advertisement up here, ami several hours later took it down and put it up somewhere elsetoadvertise anoth er meeting. The Independents seem as scarce as hen teeth at this place. Tri e Reitiii.icax. Ed. Herald. The Independent meeting held here last night was a lame affair. The bouse was organized by calling Hanibald Lincoln Martz, a minor, to the chair. No man w ho bail arrived at the age of twenty one of any party was willing to act as chair man of this new party. One white and one black Republican of the borough attended the meeting; both came out as they went in straightout Republicans for Reaver, Camp bell and the whole ticket. Good onler pre vailed; as nearly all were Democrats they t-hoiiltl be praised for theirgood behavior; they all aptieared confounded to bear other men not of their own party fighting the battle for them. The s -eaters gave their Democratic friends to understand in private, if not in public, that they were with them hand, heart and soul. One speaker said be knew many years ago that Republicans were not numerous here, and he thought now they were d m scarce. I suppose he found very few Republicans here, not such as he was heretofore, but such as he is now. An other thing they no doubt both found out that this town, according to the population, hits a less number of fools in it than any other town in the county. I refer particu larly to the Independent Republican party. Wellen-burg, Oct. 2i. . X. Inpependentism Wasino. Eii. Herald. I would like, through your puper, to speak a word of cheer tojthc Re publicans of other parts of the county who are standing unflinchingly to their posts, and who are determined thut in spite of the efforts of those who call themselves Repub licans and are yet willing to bolt the regular jiarty nominations, the old Keystone State shall not 1 surrendered to the IVmocracy. As the contest Hears the end and the lines are being closely drawn, it is becoming more and more evident that we have nothing to fear. The staid Republicans of Somerset county are too wary to be caught with chaff. The hoUowness of the arguments of the Independent stump speakers is so apparent that a school boy cannot fail to see it. They cry out agaiust "Cameron rule" and "boss ism" enough to make one belive that they had all suffered a period of slavery with a Cameron for a driver. But honest Repub licans cannot avoid asking themselves the question. "If the convention that met at Harrisburg iu May and placed Gen. Reaver and those on the ticket with him in nomi nation was controlled by Cameron, how does it come that Wm. T. Davits, the very man whom the I ride indents put tin to de feat Harry Oliver in the last Senatorial con test, fu nominated for Lieutenant Gover nor?" Harry Oliver was known to be the friend and favorite of Senator Cameron, and yet the man w ho was the leader in the movement that accomplished bis defeat was placed iu nomination by a convention which the Independents say was controlled by Cameron. This may do to tell children or Berks county Democrats, who are still vot ing for Jackson, bat it will not do to tell the intelligent voters of Somerset county. Another evidence that Senator Cameron did not control the Harrisburg convention, even if he bad desired to do so, is found in the fact that Tom Marshall, the most Inde pendent man in the State, was nominated by acclamation for Congress-at-Large. Tom Marshall, the man who was independent enough to stump the State for Greeley in '72, nominated by acclamation in a conven tion that can't beendorsedby the Independ ent Republicans of the State ! Surely mens' devices are hard to understand. Will some Independent ?jeaker arise and explain? Another question that is being repeated!; ' asked is, "It the lndendents refused to ; support the regular ticket nominated at Harrisbcrg, as they say, because the conven tion was controlled by some 'machine,' and the ticket was therefore not made by the Republicans of the State, why did they re ject the proposition to submit, both this tick et and the ticket afterward nominated by themselves at Philadelphia to the Republi can voters of the State at a primary elec tion to be called for the purpose, with the understanding that the ticket receiving the largest number of votes at said election should stand as the Republican State ticket to be voted this fall?" Surely this would have been fair, and we plain country people can't see how any better plan could have been devised tor getting a ticket that was nominated "by the people." Another tiling that we want to know is if the Independents are, as they say, Repub licans, how does it come that the Demo cratic party nominated no Legislative tick et? We liuve always been accustomed to having two sets of Legislative candidates in the field, but one set we knew to be Demo crats; and now we bear the Democrats talk ing about the prospects of Sorber and Sei ber as flippantly as though they were of the regular Bourbon line of descent. These and many other like questions the country people iu this part of the county are asking themselves, and the more they think of them the less disposed they arc to take any stock in the Independent depart ure. If the election were to take place to day the Independent vote would not be one half what it would have been before an In dependent gun was fired in the campaign, and by the 7th of November the vote will be so small as to tlo no harm. To-day the writer saw two Republicans who, when he last talked with them, said they were unde cided, but now they are for Reaver and the whole ticket. Let the Republicans (.f the south end of the county do their duty on election day, and we of the north will see that the line is kept well closed up, and the whole col umn will inarc h forward to a victory that will be ascertain and as grand in its results aany we have ever achieved in the past. Qiiemahoning, Oct. 27. Reoi lar. Meyersdale, Oct. 22. Ed. Herald. It dawned upon the citi zens of Meyersdale on Thursday morning, October 27, thut the mountain (which is right in front of us) was in labor. At about 10 o'clock a. m., it became very pain ful, and at 11 a. m. it brought forth a happy issue. Charles Sumner said the mountain labored and brought forth a mouse; this brought fortliDr. H Clay McKinley, Lide-H.-ndent candidate for Congress for the Six teenth Congressional District. Contemplate the difference of the mouse and the candi date for yourself. Shades of Garfield and Lincoln, what are we coming to? Rut to be serious. On Wednesday afternoon the ed itor of the Cunimerrinl said that on Thurs day the Independents would have a candi date for Congress. On Thursday morning L. A. Smith, Dr. McKinley and a few oth ers hud a consultation, lasting ubout two hours, and then went to see Silas 11. Lichty and a few other I'emocruts. Silas, etc., were willing, of course, and the thing wasaccom plished. In the last ten days there was a regular stampede from the Independents and Dem ocrats to the support of J. M. Campliell, and something had to be done to stem the tide and bead off the movement, and Smith it Co., who had promised Cotfroth their supHrt for votes for Seiliert and Sorber, saw that the only way was to nominate some one who would be able to tuke the votes from Campbell. They ma le a terri ble blunder. Lou Smith says in the Om- mercial that by direction of the conferees of Blair. Bedford and Somerset, we place at the head of our ticket Dr. H. Clay McKin ley. Does Mr. Smith think we are all fools? does he not know that the Independent con ference met a month ago at Altoona, made a nomination and adjourned sine die, was dead and had no power to direct or make a nomination, as the convention was not call ed together and had no more to say than any other private citizen. Mr. Smith can produce no evidence that they were direc ted to select Dr. McKinley. Even letters and proxies fail him. Lou Smith, being the voice of the people, has nominated Dr. Mc Kinley. How is that for bossism? Lou Smith may deny some and all of these charges, but every right thinking man of this town knows it is the God's truth. Dr. McKinley pledged his word and honor to J. M. Campbell in the presence of eight or ten witnesses, that he would support him (Campbell) for Congress. lt him deny it if he dure. The nomination of Dr. McKinley by l.ou Smith and Silas Litehty disgusts everybody here, and while be may be able to poll a few Independent votes, they will all be made up by disgustetl Democrats and the increased zeal of the Republicans. Every friend of Dr. McKinley'sin this town feels sorry that he has allowed himself to be made a tool of for the sake of electing A. H. Cotfroth. Dr. McKinley is an intelligent, sober, pro gressive and upright citizen, and all his friends, without distinction of party, de plore the course he has taken. Repiblh 'AS. St iiellsiu rii, Ta.. Oct. 27. Et. Herald The Senv, published at Carrolltown, Cambria county, speaks of Gen. Coffroth a a gallant soldier, and as I am reading tip the military history of the various candidates, will you please give nie the number of the regiment in which he served. O. L. D. Soldier. Why bless yonr O. L. 1). heart! General Coffroth never bothered himself with any thing so small as a regiment; he never as pired to the command of anything less than a brigade. Way back in the old days of the corn stalk militia Gen. Coffroth wanted to be elected Brigadier General of the brigade to which the Somerset county militia were assigned, but another mighty man ot war, W. H. Koontz, desired the place, and as the majority of persons entitled to a voice in the selection were of Koontz' political faith. that hero was elected. Coffrnth, nothing daunted, resolved that he would be a Gen eral and as the majority of those voting for the otliee of Major General of the command composed the counties of Somerset, Bed ford and Cambria were Democrats, Coffroth was elected Major General and thus out ranks our Brigadier, We don't think you will tint! his mmtarv lustorr in print, as the only field operations he was engaged in were at Johnstown.

Bki laii School Horss, Oct. 31, 1S82. Ed. ltrLD: The Republicans of this district, had a grand old time in theirscbnol honse Saturday night. The meeting was called to onler by Geo. R. Scull, Esq., who nominated that staunch old Republican, G. F. Schmncker, for President, Alex. Stern and A. L. Howard, Vice Presidents, and Lerif'Miller. Secretary. The meeting was addressed by J. L. Pugh, Geo. IL Scull, and John R. Scxtt, Esq's. They pave the ball in Somerset North such a start that it will continue to roll until the 7th of November, when it will roll up a victory for Beaver acd tbe whole Republican ticket. There were a few Demecrats and Inde pendents present, who looked as though they wished that they bad wings that they might At from the wrath that is coming, which will tmry them for all time to come. The meeting was a grand success and closet! wsth three rousing cheers for Beaver and the whole Republican ticket. One or Them. Graxd Ivepiblkas Rally at CoiifLr eni I.

YnUy ami A. C. Holbert as Secretaries. Mr. Jobs A. Walker then introduced to the audience Ed. B. Scull, Esq., of Somerset, who made a telling speech of about one bour's length, devoting himself to the is sues of the day, and devoting part of his time to an account of the men heading the various tickets ; he also gave a history of the rise of the Independent party; the speaker illustrated his points by anecdotes, and was frequently interrupted by the ap plause of his audience. The next speaker introduced was John H. Jordan, Esq., of Bedford, and he made a stirring address. In regard to bossism this speaker said : "There was no bossism in the Convention which nominated General Bea ver. Don Cameron wanted Charlie Wolf nominated, but the Republicans would not have it and nominated General Beaver, and Cameron supports him because he is tbe nominee. These facts demonstrate the fact that the cry of " bossism " is a fallacy that no one man either owns or controls the Re publican party." "Tbe real contest to day U between the two old political parties, and it is the duty of Republicans to stand nobly by the record they have helped to make. " Every Republican vote for Mr. Stewart is half a vote for tbe Democratic candidate, Mr. Pattison. The Independent leaders have admitted that they have no hoi ' the election of Mr: Stewart, but they say they can defeat the Republican party." The speaker then read the various offers of compromise that were made by the friends of Gen. Beaver, all of which were refused by the friends of Mr. Stewart. He then went into the tariff record of the Dem ocratic party, and gave a history of the re peal of the tariff of 1842. How George M, Dallas was a Pennsylvania!!, and being so, it was sup09ed he would stand by a pro tective tariff; butbe was unable to with stand the pressure brought to bear by his party, and when the bill for the repeal bad been carried in the lower House and went up to the Senate the vote stood half and half, and the casting vote was with Dallas and he gave il in favor of the repeal of the tariff of 1M-'. Then followed panic, low prices, men out of employment, mills ami furnaces closed, all culminating at last in the great pauic of 1857. Then followed a comparison of the rate of wages paid in this country and some other countries, showing that our wages are about double theirs. With low wuges comes the ability to manufacture at rsscost, and with high wages the cost mutt be increased and hence the necessity of a tariff in order to enable our goods made by workmen at high wages to compete with the goo. Is manufactured by workmen allow wages. He adduced the Bessinier steel rail as un illustration. A few years airo all these rails were manufactured in England. Every one of these rails was imported from that country ut a cost of one hundred aud sixty dollars er ton, and, no matter how great a quantity was purchased, it was impossible to get a reduction of a single doliuf. But a company wus formed, which, went to Euglund aud purchased the right to manufacture these rails. They built a manufactory, commenced business, and asked our Government to put a turiff on iiuxjrted rails in order to protect the home manufacturers, which was done, and soon the price of the Bessinier steel rail fell from 100 per ton to $00 per ton. "The Republican party bus alwas been the friend of the tailoring man.'' Lincoln, Grant aud Garfield were mentioned as illustrious instances of the Republican pur ty's choice, and afterwards that of the na tion, falling upon laboring men. The speaker closed amid the wildest ap plause, and after him Hon. A. J. Colborn was introduced and made a calm, dispassion ate address on the issues of the day. He was repeatedly cheered during his address. After he closed Col. E. D. Yutzy was called. He ajKiiogizetl for the lateness of the hour, hut during about fifteen minutes he devoted himself to the prominent Inde pendents of the county.
