the ccutres of foreign commerco by
great rivers, by vast inland seas and by
75.0UO miles of railway. We have a
auu in our heavens which, in the sea
eon ot atrriculiural growth, pours down
daily floods of light and warmth, mak
ing the earth proline, giving abundance
and variety of fruits, assuring the
wheat crop, yielding cotton in its lone,
snd ripening corn everywhere, even to
the verge of the farthest north. I pro
diet a great increase in the consump

the 6,(MK),000 bushels which it reach

Our present cropouchtto be 1.500,0(X),

o wheat in nutritive power. It costs
liss than ono-halfon the seaboard, and
much less than one half on the farm.
It can be cooked, by those who con
sent to learn bow, into many delicious
forms of human Icod. Why should
not the British workmen hive cheaper

of New York frittered away or its ex

hiatorv: it could not slier the univer
sal judgment ot the civilized world ;
it could not avert me nigral retrtouuon
that is impending. But New York
herself can not afford to have her voice
unheard. The declaration of indepen
dence, the bills of riitht aod tho State
constitutions all contain assertions of
the right pf, the people to govern them
selves nod to change their rules at will.
These declarations had ceased to have
any meaning to the American mind.
They seemed to bo truisms which there
was nobody to dispute. The contests
known to us were contests between dif
ferent portions of our people. To eomt
nrehend the significance of these de
clarations it is necessary to curry our
selves back to the examples ot humuo
xperience in view of which our ances
tors acted, t iipy Had ?eeu tne govern
mental machine nada small govern
mental iclass, sometimes with the aid
ot tho navy, able to rule arbitrarily
over millions of unorganized, isolated
atoms of human society In forming
tho government of the United States
they endeavored to take every precau
tion against tho recurrence ot such
evils in this country.- They keptdown
thestandingnrmy to a nominal amount.
They intendad to limit the functions
ot the federal government, so as to pre
vent the erowth. to danKerous dimen
sions, of an office holding- class and of
corrupt influences. . The preserved the
tate governments as a counterpoise to
net as uenter-t ot opinion auu as organ
ized means of resistance to revolution
ary usurpation by the federal govern
ment. . Jefferson, the leader ot liberal
opinion, in his first inaugural, rocog-
tnzcd this theory. Hamilton, tne re
presentative of tho extreme conserva
tive sentiment, in tho Federalist, ex
pounded it with elaborate arguments,
Madison, the father of the constitution,
culorced these conclusions.
A voice How about the returning
board? '
Mr. TilJen There were no return
ing boards in those days. The people
elected their own President, and there
were no Louisiana and Florida re
turning boards to rob iheui ot their
rights. The increase of power in
the federal government during tbe
last twenty years, the creation of a vast
office-holding class, with its numerous
dependents, mid the growth ot - the
means of corrupt influence, have well
nii; It destroyed the balance of our com
plex system. It was my judgment in
j 870, that ptihlio opinion, demanding
achuueeot administration, needed to
embrace two-thirds ol the people at
the beginning ol the canvass, iu order
to cast a majority of votes at the elec
tion. If this teuden ;y is net arrested
its inevitable result will be the pranti-cu-l
destruction of our system. Let the
federal government grasp power over
tho crest coroorations of our country
and acquiro the means of addressing
their interests and their fears; let it
take jurisdiction of riots which it is
the duty of the State to suppress ; let
it find pretexts for increasing the army,
and soon tlioe in possession of the
government will have a power with
which no opposition can successfully
compete. Applause. Ihe experi
ence of France uuder the Third Napo
leon shows that with elective forms
aod universal suffrage, despotism can
be established and maintained. In the
canvass of 1876 the federal sorernment
embarked in the contest with unscru
pulous activity. A member ot the
cabioet was the head of a partisan com
tnittee. Apenta stood at the doors ol
the par offices to exact contributions
from official subordinates. Tbe whole
office-holding-class were made to ex
haust their power. Even the army,
for the first time, to the disgust of the
soldiers and uany of the officer, was
moved a boot the country as an elec
tioneering instrument All tnts was
done under the eve r f the beneficiary
of it, who was tnakinr the air vocal
with profeino of civil service reform,
to be bf-e-ua after he himself exhausted
all the immoral advantages of civil
scrvic abves. Pnhlie opinion, in
some States waa overborn by corrupt
influence and by fraud. Bat so stronr
m th desire for reform, that tbe
Democratic candidates feoeivod 4,300-
000 suffrages. This was a majority of
the popular vote of about oOO.OOU, ami ; .
of 1,250,000 of the white oitisens. It ''
was a vote 700,000 larger than General ' ;
Grant received in 1872, and 1,300,000 '
lante"r than he received in.l8bU For 1
all that tbe rightfully elected candi- :
dates of the Demoeratio party were ;
counted out and a great fraud , trl- .
uiAiphed, which the American people
have not eondonsd and will never eon-
done. " Prolonged applause and.
obeers. Yes, the crime will never be
condoned and it never should be. I do
cot denounce the fraud a affeoting mv
rmraonul interests, bat because , it
stabbed the very foundations ot free;,-,
government. Loud cheers. I swear ,
in the presence ot you alt, ana 1 can
upon you to bear witness to the oath, : '
to watch, during the remainder of my
life, over the riahts of the citizens of
our country with a jealous care.,. Such ;
a usurpation must never occur again ,,
and I call upon you to unite with me ' ,
in tne atiense oj our snorea ana pre-
cious inheritance. TI e government of '
the people must not be suffered to be- ) '
come only an empty name. Loud up- :
plause. The step from an extreme
degree of corrupt abuses in the eleo-,
tious to a suDvcrsiou oi tne elective
system itselt is natural, no sooner
was tne election over man tne wnoie
power ot the office-holding class, led '
hv a cabinet minister, was exerted to
procure, from the State canvassers of -
two States illegal ana irauuieni certi- ,
ficates, which were made a pretext tor ,
a taUe count of the electoral votes. To ,
euable these officers to exercise the-
immoral courage necessary to the parts :
assigned to them, and to relieve them .
from the timidity which God has im-. ,,
plant(,d in the .human bosom as a limit ,
to criminal audacity, detachments of .
the army were sent to afford them shel
ter. The expedients by which tho
votes of the electors ohosen by the
people of these, two States were reject
bcl, and the votes of the eleotors hav , ,
iog the illegal and fraudulent certifi
cates were counted, and the nwuaoe '
of usurpation by the presltientot the11
Seuateot dictatorial power over all tbe
questions in controversy, and the men
ace of the enforcement of his pretend
ed authority by the army and navy,th ,
terrorism ot the business classes, audj ,
the kindred measures by which the '
false count was consummated, are '
known, Tht result is the establish
ment of a precedent destructive of our
whole elective system. Applause. ; ,
Tbe tomptation to those in possession
ot the government to perpetuate their .
own nower bv similar methods will al-'
ways exist, and if the example shall be '"
sanctioned by eucoess, the . suecessioh ,
of government in this country will
come to be dutermined by fraud or .
force, as it has been in almost every
other country ; and tho experience will
be reproduced here whioh has led to.'
the goneral adoption of the hereditary,' :;
system in order to avoid confusion anil
civil war. . .
Tbe magnitude of a -political crime , ;
must be measured by its natural and
necessary oonsequence.' Our great re- '
public has been tbe only example in
the world ot a regular and orderly
transfer of governmental suoeession by J-
tho elective system'. To destroy the
habit of traditionary respect for the .,
will of the people, as declared through
the electoral tortus, and to exhibit our
institutions as a failure, is the greatest
possible wrong to our owo country. It
is also a heavy blow to the hopes of
patriots struggling to establish self
government iu other couutrics. It is .
a greater crime against mankind than
the usurpation of December 2,1851,
depicted by the illustrious pen of Vie- '
tor lingo. The American people will
not condone it under any pretext or
for any purpose. Cheers, Young;
men, in the order of nature wo who '
have guarded the sacred traditions of
our free government will soon leavo '
that work to you. Within the lite of
most v.-bo hear me our re pu olio will
embrace a hundred million ot people.
Whether its institutions shall be pre- ,
served in substance and in spirit aa
well as in barren forma, snd will con
tinue to be a blessing to the toiling
millions here and a good example to
mankind, now everywhere seeking a
largershara in tbe management of (heir
own affairs, will depend on yon. Will
yon accomplish that duty and mark,
these wrongdoers of 187G with the in
dignat.ion of a betrayed, wronged and
sacrificed people?
