Lats! Telerams 10 The Sta THE CHICAGO CONVENTION {Continued from first page.) United States against foret; competition. The tariff question was Dot considered as one embracing sole! or chiefly the manu- facturers interests, but one which broadly embraced the social condition of ube laboriog classes, the mutual interest of all home productrs in the home market, and of the country’s real Independence. The British, who now shout tree trade, protected themselves against all competition, until they were masters of the commercial world, aod unul they Teulized that the United States with itS great natural advantages an by @ moderate use of the same means Was becoming @ formidable rival. It was only when Great Britain perceived something of tae future of her American rival that she attempted to regain that control over this country by aruifice Which she Was unable to hold or reclaim by force of arms.” Aiver relating the history of the alleged alliance of the South with English manufacturers under the administrations of Van Buren, Poik, Pierce, Buchannan, Chairman Jones continued: “The republican party vanquished the demo- cratic party, passed the homestead law, destroyed Slavery, elevated the ‘woud sills’, restored credit, redeeméd the country ant started 1t anew on thé Unes contemplated by the fathers. To-day we Occupy a much higher plane than any other peopié on tue face of the glove. ‘The republican party belleves that it Is not necessary or right that We should be reduced to a common level with other nations; but that we Should have the full penefit of ail our natural advantages and the full enjoyment of our lorious heritage. The logical consequences Gr'the” theories’ of the “democratic” party would bave left this country with but airings, of |, Population on the "water. ways, Many of the leading bourbon demo- erats of today look upon the magnificent developments and the grand _ improvements of the nation, which are simply labor, genius and management erystalized, asa rank, unnatural, and unwholesome growth, and Velieve that we | Ought to go back to The days of ignorance, sloth, and small things as quick as possible. “Through the criininal folly of certain pro- fessed republicans aud by frauds and duplt- eity on the part of the democratic party, our honored “ and gallant — standard-bear- ers in 1884 were defeated, Fortunately for the country, we have still the beneflt of the Wise laws passed by the repubilean party, aud still shave a majority in the Senate of the United States, which tmajority has prevented unwise legislation. We are again confronted with tuls same democratic party, the mother of all the evils from Which this country has suffered, asking for the power to control and direct ius future course, aud we find that the same element which } first led it astray by its malign tnfuence and dominated it down to the grievous days of the rebellion, 1s again in full control of its affairs, If ‘majority of the Ameri- can voters favor the giving away of the home market, incomparably the best in the world, "and the forcing of our people, now the most prosperous and happy on the face of the earth, into competition with and down to a level With the cheapest, poorest and | most miserable of our foreign rivals, the democratic reactionary doctrines will prevail. If not, the republican party will resume its au- thority and successfully lead this great country W.thits beneficent Justitutions toward thatsublime 20.1 Wuleh all patriots believe to be its beaven- Ordained destiny. I have no doubt of the result. Temporary Chairinan Thurston was then Intro- duced, and Spoke as follows: y Chairman’s Address, Coxvention: I am deeply sensible of the distinguished honor you have con- ferred upon me as the presiding officer of your temporary organization. I am also mindful of the grave responsibilities of the position, and if whey are successfully met it will be due to ‘the continu- ance Of your generous favor and the bestowal of Your loyal assistance. Ihave no words in which lo nttingly express my heartfelt appreciatian of your coufldence. Ithank you gentlemen, not for Myself alove, ‘but for thal great and growing West which néver disappoints the expectations of the republican party. “I come from a state whose vast domain has been largely appropriated by the surviving vete- Tans of the Army of ue Republic, under the bene- Hcent provisions of the homestead and pre-emp- Uon laws enacted by a republican Congress, And true to the heroic recollection of the past the homesteaders of the West still march on under the banner of repubiteantsmn. In victory and de- feat, im Sunshine and in storm, in prosperity and adversity, this mighty West retains the courage Of its couvictons and holds that devotion to prin ciple, though it brings defeat, is better than suc- cess achieved by broken vows and political dis bonor. “We are met in national convention for delibera- tion and conterence. ‘The republican party of the United States relies upon the wisdom of tts as sembied delegates for such action as will ensure Success. “It We are prepared to honestly and fairly nucet (he Supreme issues of the hour, with a clear, fearless and ringing declaration of principles and to nomluate a Ucket which will commend itself to the loyalty and Intelligence of the country, we can randly Win, We enter upon the proceedings of is convention prepared vo sacrifice individual Judgment lo the wisdom of the majority, aud to lay down personal preferences ou the altar of party success. When our candidates are chosen, we will all join with heart and soul tn thé grand chorus of rejoic- ng, and the rainbow of our harmony shail give eriain promise of the glory of a Victorious morn- tng in November. "Wen the democratic party at the close of the lasi presidential election roubed us of a victory Louestly and falrly won, we patiently waited for the certala coming of ihe Justice of tne years, We hoped and believed that 1888 would right the great hational wrong of 1884. Rigut it not ony for the republican party, but also for the grand and glorious candidates’ whose names were the inspiration of that Wonderful campalgn. ‘The in finite Wistota of ap all-wise Providence bas other- Wise decreed. “One of them—the citizen soldier, the warrior statesman, the Black Eagle of Ilindts—bas been summoned by the Silent Messenger to report to his old commander beyond the river.

When Robert Bruce, King of Scotland, lay upon his dying bed, bi Tequested that his heart should be taken from his inanimate body and borne by knightly hands to the Saviour’s sepulcher. After his death James, Eari of Douglass, undertook the sacred mission, and with the heart encased tn a golden casket set gut upon bis, pilgrimage to the Holy Land. On their way thither himself and comrades were set upon by a great host of Moorish warriors, Though they fought with all the valor of mortal men they were born backward by sheer force of numbers, and their overthrow seemed certain, when Doug Jas, drawing from his bosom the priceless caskel cast It far out Into the midst of the oncoming host and cried out: “Lead on, heart of Bruce, we follow thee,” and the knights of Scotland, never defeated Nyble following Bruce, pushed forward and won ay. “Let this convention find a Dougiass for our Bruce. He will take the soul of our great leader into the golden casket of his love, and with It lead tus on to certain and splendid victory.” ‘The speaker's criticism of the democratic admin- istration for its sins of omission and commission Was received with hearty laughter and generous applause. His peroration was delivered with tell- lug effect, and earned for him great and tumultu- ous applause and cheers, ‘The chair then announced a long lst of secre. tarles, assistant secretaries, sergeant at armsete., for the temporary organization. ‘After the reading of the list of officers was com- pleted, the band struck up a medley of national airs which Was warmly received by the audience, Sad oe the sir turned into, “Marehing: thro Georgia,” the assemblage caught up the retrain, and the'chorus of many voices resounded through: out the hall. PRESENTATION OF A GAVEL. Mr. Horr, of Michigan, was then recognized, ana‘ ascending the platiorm, said: “I am requested by the delegation from my state to pre- sent to the temporary chairman of this convention, for his use, a gavel made of the oak under which the republican part Was organized on the 6th of July, 184, 1n the Village or city of Jackson, in the state of Michigan.

ANOTHER PROTEST. ‘Mr, Osborne (Kan.) said that he was glad that this gave him the opportunity to again protest ‘against the acceptance of the recommendation of national committee without a vote. He asked that the vote of Kansas be recorded for Mr. Warner, of Missourt, Mr. Hoo! sald’ that bis motion did not include the temporary chairman, who he fully under- stood, been duly elected. ‘As the other officers, he now found, were tn- cluded, in the general’ acceptance of ‘the com- mittee’s report, he withdrew bis motion, THE DAKOTA DELEGATION. Judge Moody (Dak.) got recognition and made a speech in support of a motion to grant to Dakota ten instead of two delegates, ‘The chair announced that the national commit- tee had recommended that Dakota be given ten delegates and Washington Territory six.

Special Dispatch to Tux EvENING Stan. Cuicaco, June 19.—When the temporary chair- man, Gen. Thurston, Was introduced, a man way over in the Kansas delegation steod up under the state banner and tn a feeble voice protested against the action of the national com- mittee in selecting Thurston. He was loudly hissed and his protest’ was ignored. Gen. Thurston made a rousing speech which was ten cheered. When he made reference to Blain’s aunpaigu the convention cheered with consider- able show of enthusiasm. Later on, when he re- ferred to Biatne’s withdrawal, cheers’ and cries of “No,” “No,” were heard throughout the hall. When he sald they dare not disobey Blaine’s cammand; that they could not nominate him, the cheering lasted several Ininutes. It was clear that te mere mention of Blaine aroused enthusiasm, ‘The names of other candidates received more’ or less applause, but none ike Blaine. Gen. Thurston closed his address at 1:20, and fhe other temporary officers were then announced. ‘Throughout the address considerable enthusiasm Was displayed, but all the demonstrations were orderly aud not greatly prolonged.
