You are true to the doctrines that have ever boeu preached and promulgated by tbo great deuiooraiio leaders of the nation. Your presence bore Is an earnest that you huve not boou corrupted by tbe Isms of these fate days, but are still loyal to the great nalioual party principles. DKMOCRAT10 VIXAXC1AL DOC THINK. If there le ono thing uiuro tbau another to which tbe deuiooraiio party bus adhered it is too doctrine ol nu honest curreucy. Honest mouey hue boeu a watch word?money with a llxod value, uot mouoy that changes oven while It passes from hand to hand and defrauds eouio one?with the democratic party in the past, and our principles have sulfcrud no change 01 late. We want, und II we stand together wo will have, a currency of tlxod value?one in Which the paper dollar will be equal to and convertible Into tbe void dollar. That this is what the country needs Is the teaching of all tbe great oom Biereial countries ol tne earth and ol our own export* eucos during tbo last thirteen years ol peace. Wo Want a money that will be mouey lor ibe farmer as well as tbe banker, tbo laboring man as well as tho manufacturer, and not a money only lor wild specu lators mud unprlnoipled gumblors. Had the republi can party husbauded but a trifle of the money that during tbe lost thirteen years It has squandered In Jobs and subsidies, the condition of aflairc would uot be such as to to-day call for, or seem to oall lor, such radical and swooping changes us ignorant men demand. The exasperation caused by tbe loss ol public money trom the treasury has beun so great as to givo birth to a new Issue in politics. Hsu the government boon coaJuotod on buuest, und at tho camo lime liooral, principles sinee the war the debt would not new bo so great uud tho greenback dollar would now be of equal valuo with the gold one. Mr. Korean traced the history of re publican legisla tion oc tbo national finances iroui 1808, whon a lew was passed allowing the Secretary ol the Treasury to uso ouriuin revenues as a means of redeeming the paper pledges ol tbe uatloo to 1868, when the power was revoked by act ol Cougress. Ho spoke ol the speculative fever that resulted iron) this lust act, and finally considered tbo panto ot 1873 as ono of tbe results ot iho legislation he had spoken Of. To repair as far as could be all these injuries to tbe poopic was the duty of tho democratic party. To this cad it would be uocussury to elect members of Congress in order to Increase and maintain lb? majority of the party there. This good work could not be done If democrats wore called aside uud willed to listen to tbe arguments ol an office itching minority. In party union, locml and national, only could good re sults be obtaluod. Mr. Keroau laid great siross on tbe tact that any deviation irotn tho principles of democracy might bo fatal uud admonished bis hearers toslaud fact in the old faith. HTATB AND LOCAL IS8CBS. fbls admonltiou to staud together and reject over tures from republicans and democrats wbo bad re nounced their laith Drought Mr. Kernaa to tbo con DJcrution of local affairs In the coming campaign. Tho Importanco ol electing au Assembly to secure a just apportionment ol the Slate, according to the last census, was dwelt upon and Mr. K. ruun also pointoa out tne necessity ol a democratic Assembly in order to secure another member of democratic failb tu tbe United States SenuU) from Now York. To tho question of apportionment Mr. Kcroan devoted great attention. He ex plained that the population oi New York city according to the lust census was uboul one-quar ter ol the population of the entire State; that the city of New York, under the prosont unjust upper Hon in en i, la ouly allowed twenty-ouo members In tbo Asscmblr, wberous .sue should huve at least iweulv-cight, under tho last census. Kings county, nu s.iid, was DO better off. Yet, In the lace ol tho admitted injustice of tne apportion lh on t, tbo renaulican Legislature 'lor Inreo consecutive voars has retusod to auor It and give democrats their rights. The conduct of Ibe re publicans in the past was such us to give no encour agement, ana no claim has been muds that they will cuanuou old methods this year. It therelore be hooves democrats to oast tbein trom place and power and reapportion the Slate on au eqmtablo basic The republicans are not to be ousted oy such things us combinations; on the oonirury, they use democrats to perpotuate tho wrongs of democrats.

To ay looked utild and itmld, end apparently realised the unitnportauca of their presenee. Mrs. Or. Losier occupied the ebsir of Siato. She opened the meeliug with an appropriate address, alter which she Introduced lAllio Oeveraux Blake, who dwelt at length ou the urgent ntoeasity and de ?trabllily of ladlaa receiving that boon of freedom? the right to vote. Several other ladles tallowed lu a similar strain, some making really excellent addre-ses and putting forward not a few strong logical reasons tor tnelr claim. All seemed much In earnest, and eeveral times burets of applause ut striking bits went up from Ibe appreciative listener*. Ainoue the speeches made Was oue by K iward W. Loe, formerly acting Governor of Wyoming Territory, who gave a historical accuuut of the ndopltoa and practical result ot womao's suffrage lu that Tsrritory. He comendod that Loglal ilures bad ne inherent constitutional right to rastraiu wuiuou from voting. They might restrict the right of suffrage lor eduoatloual reasoua and ou aecouut of Immatore age, but when they nought to disfranchise whole olassws because of the accident of sex they wore infringing on the fundamental righto ol eitixeuabip. how vumalc scvvaaoa works. The speaker narraied how be bad appointed to office in Wyoming ladles as deputy auuiiffs, as corn uiisslonors and as justices of the peuca. Over oue particular female Justice of the peace he went Into high eulogies, due was a model magistrate. There was no trouble or disorder in rer court.' bbe tackled the Intricate rules ol evidence with an ability mat might put a Court ot Appeals' Judge to the blush. On bad husbands who abused their wives she was particularly severe. Her oourso toward oouUrmud bachelors was not alluded to, but from tho speaker's description ol bar steru olmriicter it was a reasonable ? uioreuco that benedicts lured hard at bur bands. Tbo novel speolaele ol a jury ball ladles was oext de scribed. Tbe ease at tbs bar was tbat of a youbg man charged with the common border olfouee of kill ing a man. Tbe six mcu were unhesitatingly tor acquittal, but tbo six ladies voted solidly that tbe prisoner should be banged by tbo neok until be was dead. For throe days uud toroe nights the jury were out. At last the ladles triumphed and the men were forced to compromise on u wrdiet of homicide and tbe wicked priaouer waa sant to jail for Queen years. Mr. Loe next told of an Instance lu his Territory where u husband and wile were rirul candidates for tbe samo office. "And yet," be said, "there was no disruption of their marital relations." Illustrative of the refining influonce of the sex on politics the speaker recalled an instance of a burly Milesiau candtdato for the office ot oouslable gallantly escorting to ibo polls two oolorod slaters whose votes be bad secured.
