Gen. Gofl said be was glad to see so
Urge a crowd here, and lie was glad to be
here. He regretted tbat be bad not been
preeent a day earlier; not tbat It was not
as pleasant to-day, but alter tbe convention
bad listened to his friend Flick
[cheers] to Mr. Foster [cheers] to Col.
Caldwell [cheers] to Mr. Campbell [great
cheering] to his friond Mason [renewed
cheers] and Mr. Habbard [load cheering]
to Prol. Jones [tnmnltuoae applause, long
continued] there could be little left for
him to say. He likened himself to Huth,
gleaning alter the reapers, but said had
tbe reapers in those days reaped as closely
as have tbe speakers ol yesterday, poor
Rath would have louud little to toward
her toll.
iiat, tno ueneraiconunuea, ic is aiwayo
in ordor to talk a while aboat the grand
old principles of tbe Republican party.
[Applause.] He paid the Democratic
inaaaeaa high compliment for their honesty
and sincerity, and held up to view
the folly of abusing the opposition.
WHAT THIS MEANS.
The presence of these delegates here,
their interest in the proceedings and the
speeches, are indicative of the fact and
fully demonstrate that we are soon to replace
the soldiers in rank and that the
party that saved this nation is again to be
entrusted with the reins of government.
[Oheers.]
It means, my friends, an uprising among
the people and that the people themselves
are going to be up and acting when they
realize that danger is abroad in the land,
and that something must be done in order
that prosperity will greet us in the future
as it has done in the past. [Applause ]
Now, I am not one of those who believe
that we can have a victory In November
next unless we work. It Is no easy job.
Our friends, the enemy, are strongly entrenched
in power. They have tiie Na?
tional Government, they have the State
Government, and we are nover going to
dislodge them unless we organize, nnless
we disseminate the true doctrine of republicanism
throughout this State and Nation,
and you will never do that by mere talk in
conventions. You muse go among and
meet your people in vour own counties
and districts, and speak to the men who
are to cast their ballots in November next.
You will never do it by passing around or
passing through. I never believed that
all the good men are in the Bepub*
lican party, but I believe that there
are as as good men as God over let live in
the Republican party.
But the Democratic party has also good
men: they have good leaders, they nave
'l I- inmonononanlr

and they have possession and are not
going to yield it now until we havo a deaporate
tussle,
THE WAY TO WIK.
Remember, yon have them by yonr
doors, yon have them in yonr midst, they
are here with us to-day, we want to
consnlt their interest and argue with
them and Btate fully the facta as beBt we
can, and get them interested. Yon want
to go into yonr school districts and talk to ,
them, and when you have gone there,'
mark what I say: You will find that your
Democratic friends have gone before.
Did you ever notice that if the Republican
party ever inaugurated anything
good the Democratic party always follows ?
You aro going to find Democratic clubs
all over West Virginia.
I am glad we have honorable competition.
We will be ready at the cross-roads
and blacksmith shops to talk to our
friends, and wo want to make it a common
duty at all these places to acquaint
them with tho facts so they might use
them in their club organizations and conventions,
and let us appeal to tho people.
We have two or three things to talk about
when we thus go before the people.
TilK TARIFF.
When I was coming out from Washington
here yesterday a gentleman aaid to
me, "I suppose, Goff. yon are going out
there to talk tariff to those people again'/"
"It is true." I said, 'Twill talk it whon
11 please, and I believe it don't lie in your
mouth to call me to account for it" [Applause.]
And I told him why. I wanUto
remind you of the fact that this testimony
we havo must be gospel truth for the
Democrats of my titate. I want to call
yonr attention to (ho sad affairs in this
State?that be woo supports tho protective
tariff idea is not in accord with the
Seat Executive in Washington, and is not
accord vith the Presidential Magistrate
of the United States in the matter of freo
trade and tariff, [ipplanar.]
When my Democratic brotnet tells yon
that there is no reason to fear, that it is a
false alarm, Grover Cleveland says that
the only Issuo that la worthy of consideration
is the question of free trade or protective
tariff. [Applsuee-] Well, I don't
exactly boiieve that, because I think there
are other great mauera worthy of consideration.
Neverthertlieless he has eo
spoken. I believe you don't hear anv
party unanimously for protective tariff.
I am in favor of a high protective tariff.
[Cheers ] I don't care who differs with
me in that. I would not cbango for all
the friendship I have or all the votes of
this nation! | Ohceri and voices, "That's
right 1"]
THK EIGHT T1IK0RY.
He complimented the wisdom of the
Fathers when they founded tho institutions
of this country; when they ordained
a protective tariff; and said that the
men who In 1881, Invented the Southern
policy and enacted that no protective
tariff should ever be passed, wero wrong.
I believe that the first President oi the
Republic, the immortal Georgo Washington,
waa right when he signed the act
passed by the first Congress establishing a
protective tariff. I believe that our latest
Democratic President,and;I bopeto God he
will be the last [loud applause] was wrong,
and it is a shameful disgrace that he uses
the powar oi bis high office to destroy 1
that protective law; I believe in the theory
of colonising the West, In the theories
of Henry Clay, the favorite son of the
8outh, and not in the theory of the present
leader of that section, John G. Carlisle.
I believe In the doctrine of Sumner,
of Chaae. of Lincoln, of Grant, of Gar- ;
field [each name loudly cheered] and not
that of Calhoun, of tho shining leaders of
tha nli) Hnnfh of RrA^KAnrlHoa and nfhnra >
now representing the New Sooth at Washington.
WHT VIRGINIA,
Weet Ylrglnii ought to bo and I b?iieve
will be a Republican State. [Great 1
cheers.} The Republican party has made 1
yoor party whas It ia to-day, and did it in 1
spite ol the oppoeition ol our Democratic
friends, and they know it well. The Kepablican
party built up your institutions
ol all kinds. Call the attention ol the i
people at your homes to those /acts. Now,
when you meet Democratic friends, appoint
them soliciting committees; let
them KO out on the highways with yon
and to your farms; invite them to your
clubs; let tho<e who are about to cast
their first ballot be careinl how they cast
it. Tell tbem this magnificent country ol
ours was made by this party what it is.
Tell them that it is due to this party that
they are prosperous; tell the manufacturer
of fire brick that if the tariff is taken off It
will strike down the mills and factories
which need fire brick. Gentlemen, if
they take the tariff off of fire brick you
do not need fire clay. Yon will hare no
use for coke ovona or ore minee nnlen the
Republican party ia successful next November.
He spoko again of the activity of the
Democrats, and said that they were always
it the heels of the Republicans in all they
lid. He bad read in a metropolitan paper
ibta morning, that the Democratic party
as the particular friend of the public
ichools. Hs did not blame them for this,
ie did not blame them for using every
indeavor to bolster up their failing cause.
Sut he wonld like to make an iaeua in
hia State upon that little matter. He '
laid it waa true that the Democrats bad
wen ratber liberal in their support of the
ree schools, but It waa so simply because
bey could not help it They had found i
the school laws upon the statute booki
when the; came into power, and they
conld sot do otherwise than enforce
those statutes.
DEMOCRATIC EDUCATION.
I turned over some old flies the other
day in which 70a were pointed to the
magnificent school system of Virginia and
told that the Republicans would destroy
that system. Some of you remember that
eyatem; I do. It was a disgrace and a :
shame. Contrast It with the magnificent
system of free ecboole In your State to- .
day. Then in one corner of your school
you had a bench?a pauper benchi-that j
was your free school eysteml
When a child wanted to go to school, '
he had to go to a County Commissioner
and get a pauper card. With this badge
of poverty they came to the school room and
begged a place on tbo pauper bench. :
They would not stay there. Children
pointed the finger of fcorn and said "Pauper
I"
Your child came home with that card
and Hung It in your face, and while your .
face burned with shame you could do
nothing. That was the tyranny of the '
law and there was no appeal. God save your
children. Ood save the children of I
my Democratic friends from that degradation!
[Cheers]
I am glad the Dumocrats now lore that
system; it is a good conversion. [Laughter
and applaoae.] They really appreciate
the good ol the tree achool system,
just aa years from now they will come
arotrnd and tell abont the advantages of a
high protective tariff?which the Republican
party secured. [Cheers.]
THX BLAIB BILL.
The speaker would add this question to
the one Grover Cleveland bad anbmitted
to the people; not only education, but
national aid to free schools. [Cheers.]
He was glad to cay the Blair bill pasted
the United States tienate yesterday [applause]
and tbat that Menate waa Republican.
[Applause.] Now it mnst come
np in the other ernl of the Capitol, and it
wiil have a hard row to how there. But
things are better than last time-, then
they had forty odd majority In the House.
Sow they have bare twelve. [Oheera ]
But the BlairblUlain moreoanger now i
than It waa then. Why? Because the 1
Democrats are seeking any excuse to re- '
duce the tariff. Their claim is that the .
protective tariff causes the surplus in the
Treasury, Keduce the surplus or wlpo it '
out and there will be no effort to paas the
Blair bill this year.
TUB SUBPLDS.
They continually harp on the surplus.
They never knew what a surplus waa till
thoy came into a Republican administration.
The eurplns is not as much as it
ought to be. I wish it was greater. [Ap- I
planes.] Wo have splendid waysoi disposing
of it. We need a National navy.
The Democrats will tell yon tbat the Republican
did not give jou a navy when
they were in power, took at the appropriation
bills passed then and you will
see why. Yon will eee there provisions
tacked on by Democratic votes, tbat none
of this money shall be used to build new
ships.
The need oi sea coast defenses, river
and harbor improvements and jnat pension
allowances, was briefly touched; but,
said the speaker, there is a better way to
reduce tne surplus. Take off all the
tariff receipts on raw material imports and
van only reduce the revenue $15,000,000.
Where is the other $85,000,000 to be made?
Read the President's message and will see.
tie proposes to take it off mnnnfactnred i
products. That means take It off labor, .
and I for one will never cast a vote that '
could bring about this result. [Wild ap- ,
plaufle.] I would rather shove up the
walls ot protection, and give the American '
market to the American worklngmen.
[Oheera.]
The cnange In the condition of West
Virginia: the incroase of railroads and
mines and coke ovens and factories, was ;
attributed to Kaoubttcaa laws ana Kepubllcan
policy. Other sections need the
same improvements. Can the; be made
with coal and iron ore on the l'ree list?
So men build railroads lor ion? They
build them when there is something to
haul over them.
WHAT PKOTECT10M HAS DONS.
Ho told of seeing West Virginia coal ,
last week in Boston harbor; of visiting '
Weet Virginia woolen mills and the communities
that grow np around them, making
A diversity ot interest and industry,
and creating a borne market for agrlcul- .
tural products. He analyiad the growth ~
of cities and the oiuses that tend to build
them np?all owing to Republican polioy. J
The "free raw material" cry of the 1
President and the Democrats was help ,
np to ridicule. [I
Dr. M. 8. Holt m'errnpt'yi from a seat
near the stage and said when Qen. Gotl's
late competitor read the President's mcs- '
sage he said "Thank God, the light Is "
breaking I" J
(Jen. Goff?That ii just what I sup- ?
posed, he would say j yet when he was 11
couvasslng the district he was wont to n
say, "If Gen. Goff wants a yard of protec- ,
tion I'll take two yards." [Derisive laugh- '
ter.] I do not measure my protection by
the yard. I want it as broad as the continent.
[Great applause.]
The illustration of the fact that "one f,
man's raw material in auother man's flu- ci
Isbod product" was cloar and convincing. n
WhuneverGen. Goff spoke of quitting
the audience shouted, "Go on." At this J
point, however, he apologised for conjoin- (,
Ins bo much time, saying he hoped to ?.

the time of election and talk to them on _

dato for any office, bat as a private citi- n

to bear aloft the banner of Republicanism
and protection as a private soldier in the
ranks. ?
