GOVERNOR SEYMOUR.
Special Dispatch to the World,
Cleveland, Ohio, October 23—9:30
p. in. —Governor Seymour, accompanied
by Hon. Sanford E. Church, lion. Francis
Kernan, Hon. Ilichard Schell, and others,
left Buffalo this morning in a special car
on the Lake Shore Road, m route for
Cleveland and Chicago. The first im
portant stopping place was
DUNKIRK,
where, upon two hours’ notice, a band had
been engaged, which played jubilant airs
as the train approached. A cannon had
been procured, which boomed forth a welj
come, and a very large and demonstrative
gatlicring of several thousands crowded
about the car in which it was supposed
that Governor Seymour was seated. The
Governor was accompanied to the back
platform of the car and was presented to
the people by W. \V. Holt. President of the
Democratic Club at that place, amid great
cheering. Governor Seymour spoke as
follows:
Four years ago I addressed the people
of this city during the Presidential elec
tion. At that time we tried to warn our
Republican friends that they were pursu
ing a policy that would load our country
with debt; that would lengthen the toil of
the laborer; and that would peril the peace
and order of soeiety. They told us in an
swer, that if their Presidential ticket was
elected in a little while our Union would
be restored, peace would be brought back
to our land, and there would be again fra
ternal relationship among the citizens of
all sections of the country. (Applause.)
Our appeals and warnings were all unheed
ed, and yet to-day, when four years have
rolled by, and the people of this country
find themselves afflicted with heavy debt
and taxation, they hear from our Repub
lican orators that the South is still insub-
ordinate in spirit, and that it is still neces
sary to keep up great armies there at the
cost of the tax-payers of the North. If I
am honored now with the presence of one
who heard me then—one of’ my Republi
can friends —I ask him to recall the words
tLat were then uttered, and decide wheth< r
our warnings were not well founded. I
will not attempt to address you now upon
the issues of the day. I only come for
ward in response to your call to remind you
of what we said four years ago, and to re
call your attention to the fact that then
in Republican friends promised that, if
they were reinstated in power, they would
at once bring back peace and prosperity to
the Union which we all love. I can only
bid you now good-bye. You will be ad
dressed by my eloquent friend, Lieuten
ant-Governor Church, whom you will all
be glad to hear, and I trust that all, Re
publicans and Democrats alike, will listen
to and heed his words of warning. My
friends, I thank you for this kind recep
tion, and I trust that when the election
shall have terminated it will be in a way
that is for the good of our country
(Cheers.)
The enthusiasm again broke out, and
men clambered upon the platform and
burst into the opposite end of the car to
shake Governor Seymour by the hand.
Mr. Church came forward, and was loudly
cheered. He spoke briefly and effectively.
AT WESTFIELD
the booming of cannon greeted the ap
proach of the traiu, and a largo crowd
gathered around the car, cheering and
calling for Seymour. He appeared at
the platform, and received every demon
stration of admiration and delight. Ho
■poke as follows:
I am sorry that the brief stay which
this train makes here prevents me from
speaking to my fellow-citizens of the town
of Westfield. I have gone out to discuss
the issues of the day because there is a
feeling all over our laud that the affairs of
this Government are not fairly and equally
administered; that the weight of taxa
tion does not rest upon all alike; and that
our Government has lacked that economy
which should ever mark a Government
that has charge of the interests of a coun
try as great and as broad as ours. (Cheers.)
Now, I am not one of those who cherish
any unkind feelings toward my Republican
friends. lam very sorry that any of them
should think ill of me. lvalue the good
opinion of my fellow citizens, and I should
be glad to make them all feel as I feel to
ward them. As dwellers in one common
land, we are all interested in good govern
ment. In conclusion, let me say that,
however this election may end, I trust that
hereafter wo may have occasion to con
gratulate each other upon the restoration
of peace and order in all sections of our
country, and upon a relief from the bur
dens of taxation which now rest so heavily
upon the laboring classes. (Cheers.)
AT NORTHEAST
a crowd was gathered, but the train did
not stop long enough to allow Governor
Seymour saying anything more than to ex
press thanks for the reception. A lady
of the place handed Governor Seymour,
as the train moved off, a very handsome
boquet of variegated verbenas aud sweet
smelling mignonettes. An immense as
semblage of thousands of citizens besieged
the car.
AT ERIE,
the town was alive with the firing of can
non, the sound of music, and the acclama
tions ol' the assemblage. The Mayor of the
city and a large number of prominent citi
zens entered the car and were presented to
Governor Seymour. As he appeared from
the ear he was greeted with cheer upon
cheer. He was introduced by Mr. W. L.
Scott, and spoke as follows:
1 did not expect to meet here this great
concourse of people. I havo gone out to
speak to the citizens of this country upon
the questions which now agitate the public
mind. It is said that lam an interested
man, and so I am, and so is every man
who pays taxes and helps to support this
Government. How would it be if none of
those who had an interest in this contest
woro to take part in it? Would Pennsyl
vania have voted for the Republican ticket
a little while since if every office-holder had
staid away from the contest? (Cries—
“No! Nol”) I find when I look over the
(ist of Government officials that they num
ber more than sixty thousand. I contend
that with the impartial people who have
no other relationship with this Government
thau that of tax-payers and good citizens,
and who have no direct personal interest in
what the Democratic party does, we have
a great aud commanding majority.—
(Cheers.) 1 cannot address you now at
length upon the uucstions of the day. 1
am soon to leave here, and time will not
permit my doing so. I can only give you
one or two words of exhortation. ' We are
now about to perform a great and solemn
duty, and one that is to be lar-rcaehing in
its consequences. Whatever our political
views may be, they should be exercised
fearlessly and honestly. No man can at
lord now to oast his vote for any considera
tion but the good of the country, for
upon this election hang many things
that concern not only its present but
also its future welfare. Let us lay i
aside passions and prejudices and con- j
aider the questions upon whieh we are to act
ill a calm, fair, dispassionate, and patriotic
method. I impeach no man’s patriot
ism because lie docs not think as 1 think ;
1 impugn no man’s motives because he
eaunot see things as I see them. 1 only
exhort all men, whatever their political
views may be at this time, to reflect when
they enter upon the solemn duties of the
day as to what is for the best interests of
our country- We are prone to indulge too
much in invective and abuse. Let us not
act upon our prejudices against each other,
lx't us not be influenced by the pictures
which may be drawn of the candidates for
oflice, for I may say for my political oppo
nent, as well as for myself, that no man
ever contemplated the duties of the office
of President of the United States without
being filled with the most earnest desire to
do his duty to himself and to do his duty
to the land which we all love. (Cheers.
A voice—“ That’s true, sir.”) I cannot
speak to you longer. I am accompanied
by other and more eloquent men, who may
address you upon the questions of the day.
I am wearied with my exertions. Where
cver I have been, our citizens have poured
out, as they have done here, because
there is something in the condition of our
Government that makes thoughtful men
anxious. I trust that so tar as the Execu
tive office is concerned, if the people see I
fit to trust it to the Democratic nominees, 1
they may prove at least earnest and j
honest, however far they may come short
in serving the country as they would wish
to do. I bid you good-by. my friends, of !
whatever party, and' may God, in His
mercy, bless this great land of ours for j
our own good, and for the good of those :
who are to come after us! (Cheers, and a i
voice, “Thank God we’ve got a candidate I
who can say something.’’)
Hon. Francis Kernan then appeared, !
and, after receiving three cheers, spoke at 1
some length, lie read the following dis
patch, which had just been handed into
the car:
Horatio Seymour, care of L. B. Whitney,
Erie :
West V irginia elects the entire Demo- I
cratic ticket and all the Congressmen.
(Signed) W W. Armstrong, Cleveland.
The dispatch was heard with tremen
dous enthusiasm.
AT ASIIT ABULA,
Ben. Wade’s home, a large crowd had
gathered and cheer ed heartily. Governor
Seymour said;
lam happy to se e you, gentlemen, al
thtfueh butfor a. moment. I am passing
through your city on my way West, and
regret that it is not in my power to remain
longer in you. State. It has given me
treat pleasu'.c since Heft home, not only
ere, but at other points, to be met by as
semblages of my fellow-citizens, in many
instances of both parties, for whose civilities
lam under very great obligations. I can
not of course say anything at this moment
with regard to the great questions which
divide political organizations- I trust all
men, of whatever political faith, will do
their duty as their consciences dictate, and
will not be led aside by passion or interest.
I have nothing to say against you, my Re
publican friends, if you differ front me
honestly ; and I trust, on the other nand,
you will look upon us as being in earnest
and bouest as you are, trying to serve our
country according to our convictions and
sense of duty. Let us indulge the hope
that whatever the result of this election
may be it will administer to the glory and
prosperity of the country. (Cheers.)
A crowd of ladies, who stood near the
depot, sent a request that Governor Sey
mour would appear on the platform as the
train passed. A young man shaking
hands, said : “Mr. Seymour,l am a young
man, but I have got a vote for you, sir.
This is Ben Wade's place, but you have
got a good many friends here.”
Similar demonstrations continued all
along the route to Cleveland. At one
place a son of the Emerald Isle said, when
shaking hands : “Governor Seymour, I’m
a poor man, but I’ll do as much for you
as the richest man in the State.”
AT NORTHEAST
Lieutenant-Governor Patterson came on
the train, and wa- conversing with Gov
ernor Seymour for some time.
AT PAINESVILLE
the Governor was met by a large crowd
and briefly expressed his thanks.
GOVERNOR SEYMOUR AT CLEVELAND.
Cleveland, 0., October 23.—Gov
ernor Seymour passed through here to
night. and while the tram stopped spoke
as follows to the assembled crowd :
Fellow-Citizens : I regret that I have
but very few moments to stand before you
to-night. There is much I would be glad
to say to the citizens of Ohio upon ques
tions which so greatly affect tbe prosperity
of our common country and tbe interests of
all classes of the people—matters in which
all my friends are so deeply concerned. I
come before you invested with an especial
interest, because I am a candidate for
your votes. (Enthusiastic applause.) I
should mistrust my own conclusions upon
the weighty subjects connected with the
government if they had been borne amid
the excitement of a heated political can
vass, but they were not. Four or five
years ago, when I was Governor of New
York, 1 looked carefully to the sources of
our national prosperity. Our metropolis
is great because it is the grand centre
of commerce and trade of the coun
try, while we who live in the in
terior are enriched by the great chan-
nels of communication which passthrough,
connecting East and West. Our prosper
ity is based on the prosperity of the whole,
especially upon that of the mighty West.
(Olieers.) I stand before you to briefly
allude to conclusions I formed long since—
riot asa public officer, but as a private citizen
of ibis nation. I must necessarily be very
brief, as my time is short. A few years
ago the Government wiped out all our
Slate banks. It burdened them with such
heavy taxation that they could not live
and give the people the currency required
for business. When the Government de
stroyed our currency it gave us anew one,
and it was the duty of that Government
to see that it was so apportioned that it
would subserve the best interests of the
whole country. It gave to Massachusetts
fitty seven millions of dollars, and we find
up oi comparison that New York, Ohio,
and other States received much less than
their share. It gave Rhode Island seventy
dollars to each citizen, and to Ohio eight
dollars to each citizen. Now, if a great
deal of currency is good for the people of
Massachusetts and Rhode Island, why is
it not just as good for you in Ohio ?
(Loud cheering, and cries of “Ye*, yes,
that’s what’s the 1 matter.”) I ask the
business men of. your beautiful city of
Cleveland to look into these things. They
have enterprise, intelligence, judgment,
and I ask them whether the true settle
ment of these important questions is not of
vastly greater importance than merely to
win political victories? (Cheers.) Why
do not the men who have been in power
for the past four years do away with these
national evils which it is their duty either
to modify or cause to be removed; and
yet they come before you and ask to be
continued in political power; They ought to
challenge the most scrutinizinginvestigation
of t heir administration. They have spent
millions of money, and how have they
spent it? They have thrown upon the
people the burden of three thousand mil
lions of dollars, which is a load of taxa
tion. We ought to know for what pur
pose all this money has been used : for in
stance, what has become of all the vessels
which the Government bought during the
war? A large number were purchased
and many more chartered by the Govern
ment, and the Government ought to make
out a detailed list of all these, showing
what they cost and wl&t disposition has
been made of thorn. It would not cost
much to do this ; certainly not more than
it does to furnish penknives to the mem
bers of the proseut Congress. (Laughter.)
They only give it to us in generalities
They say so many millions for the army,
so many millions for the navy, and so
many million.-, for each of the various de
partments ; hut they do not give us any
details to show whether this vast amount
of money was spent wisely or not. Fellow
citizens, it would be a good thing to put in
a President and Vice President who would
look into these things, for they will not do
it. I contend that it is for the interest of
the people of my own State, of Ohio, and
of the whole country, and especially of the
laboring man, upon whom the burden rests
most heavily, to know what they have
done with this money, no matter what
may be his political view. (Cheers, and
cries of ‘‘That’s so. ”) My friends, we are
engaged in an election which most deeply
concerns the people of this whole nation.
Labor is oppressed with taxation, and
business in all its branches is embarrassed
to such a degree as to excite anxiety for
the future. They say that labor is not the
keenest sufferer; but, my laboring friends,
do you not know that when you
provide for your family, when you buy
food and clothing and the necessaries of
life, they cost more than they used to?
Do you not know that it is the tax that
causes this ? There is waste and
official extravagance in every depart
ment of the government, and you of for
eign birth, when we invited you to become
citizens of our glorious country, to its
liberties and Heavencbcstowed privileges,
did we not tell you that there were no
tax-gatherers to chase you down? (Cheers.)'
But how is it now ? There is no reason
why everything should not be as free as
ever ; but there is a tax-gatherer at every
corner, and Government officials swarm
through the land. A short time ago,
when I was in Washington, I gratified
my curiosity by looking over the “Blue
Book" to see how many of these officials
there are in the country, and I found that
there are more than sixty thousand. Does
any one doubt the influence which they
exert in controlling the Government? Can
any Republican say that if this army of
officials would stay at home the people
would drive the Republicans out of power
and put the Democratic party in ? I must
speedily conclude, for the time is passing;
hut let me bog of you before you cast your
votes at the next election to look closely
into these things; and ask the intelligent
business men of Cleveland, who love their
- interests, to consider these things candidly
aud without party prejudices. I implore
; them to take up the questions of the Gov
; erument’s expenditures and the Govern
1 inent’s policy, not as partisans but as men
who are to east their votes to sustain or to
rebuke the present administration. Is it
not right and prudent, and for the interest
of all sections jit the country, that the ex
treme policy of the Republican party should
be modified? If we succeed in this great con
test we cannot gain the power to make the
laws. The Senate and the House of Repre
sentatives are Republican, and we cannot
control them ; but, with a Democratic Ex
ecutive, we could check the extreme meas
ures which eveu the moderate and candid
members of their own party denounce.
They sav that we are revolutionary candi
dates: but how can that be when they have
control of Congress, the army and the navy,
and all that makes our national strength ?
Can myself and Mr. Blair trample on their
- power ? You know that we cannot I
beg of you. my fellow-citizens, to give care
! ful thought to these matters ! I implore
you to follow them out for yourselves. If
your judgment tells you to vote against
me, do so. (Loud cries of “No, never.”)
But, if on the other hand, you think a
check should be placed upon the Repub
lican political power, let no personal prej
udice you may entertain against me in
fluence your vote. lam sorry that such
an unjust prejudice Las been created
agains' me in the mind* of many, for I
love the good opinion of all men ; but to
win the good opinions I cannot give up
these great principles which I believe to be
founded in justice and truth. (Prolonged
cheering.) This is why I aipport and act
with the great Democratic party, whose
success 1 believe would minister to the
prosperity of the country ; and I shall con
tinue to do so although the storms of abuse
howi aroumi my head. (Great applause.)
And now I must bid you good bye. In
all probability these are the last words you
will hear from my lips. The results of,
the election, so far as they concern me
personally, are unimportant. They are
only temporary, but they _do concern the
people of this country. Let me once more j
beg you to act honestly, thoughtfully, and !
candidly as becomes American citizens.
We received from our fathers the inherit
ance of a goodly land; let it not be said
that we were false to cur trust and above
all that by our mutual hate and distrust
we have fretted away the great boon of
constitutional freedom. (Loud and pro
longed cheering.)
His Speech at Chicago.
Chicago, October 24.—Governor Sey
mour addressed an immense meeting of the
Democracy in the Court House Square to
night. He spoke to the following effect:
Fellow Citizen* —When therebeliion was
put down the task of restoring order, of
bringing back business to its proper chan
nels and of reviving paternal regard in the
hearts of the citizens of all parts of out
Union, fell upon the party in power. I
have no disposition to underrate the diffi
culties which attended tbe performance of
that duty, if it was entered upon in the
right spirit. Large allowances should be
made for many mistakes The magnitude
of the duty, the far reaching consequences
! of the policy whieh should be adopted
with regard to it, imposed upon the men
in power solemn responsibilities. Any in-
dulgence in passion, any spirit of vindict
iveness, any purpose to advance personal
or partisan objects were great crimes
against our country. They involved a
degree of guilt as black as any known. In
the then condition cf affairs selfish or ma
lignant passions were as cruel as the rav
ages of war. 1 will not dwell upon the char'
acter of the debates in Congressional halls,
nor upon the temper shown by those who
haveshaped the action ofthe Governmcntfor
the past four years. The record can be read
by each citizen for himself, and at this
time it is the duty of every voter to decide
if he is satisfied with the spirit shown by
those who now ask him to continue them
in place. Turning from the question of
our rulers let us see how far they have
succeeded in the work of restoration. It is
clear that disorganization in the local sys
tem, in business pursuits and moral con
dition in the country could not be reme
died by force. Power may have been
denied in some sections to restrain violence,
but it could do no more. The healing in
fluence must spring from large statesman
ship. It was the duty of those who con
trolled public affairs politically and care
fully to use every measure calculated to
ailay all passions or prejudices engendered
by the war either at the North or the
South. To do this intercourse between
the sections should be encouraged. The
business interest of each section and the
relationship which they bear to the com
mon welfare must be considered. As de
spair always tends to disorder care must be
taken to promote the prosperity of every
section. Communities in the enjoyment of
successful business or of prosperous com
merce are not inclined to have thesedespoiP
ed by lawlessness or violence. Have these
great truths been kept in view by our
rulers ?
You know, my fellow-citizens, that from
time to time their most wise and thought
ful leaders and their most influential jour
nals have been forced to denounce in strong
terms the conduct of the Congressional
party. In its National Convention the
Republican party based its claims to the
continued support of the American people
upon the ground of a successful manage
ment of their affairs. By so doing they
challenged a scrutiny of their measures.
Since the canvass commenced they have
been driven from the positions which they
first held; then they congratulated the
people upon the .-uccess of their Recon
struction policy in the first words they ut
tered in their series of resolutions. To
day their journals and their speakers tell
you the South is full of violence and dis
order. Driven from the ground that their
financial or political policy was wiser or
more fortunate, they have fallen back upon
the questions of the past. They seek to
revive in a period of peace the passions of
war. Nay. more than this, 1 see that in a
speech made last night by Mr. Colfax,
their candidate for ihc Vice Presidency,
that he is in full and rapid retreat. He
has got back as far as the Kansas troubles
and the Dred Scott decision. (Laughter.)
Retrospective reviews are sometimes
profitable, and when things look dark
ahead, they may be pleasant. At this
moment we are confronted by imminent
dangers and serious difficulties. We owe
to our business men, to our mechanics and
our laborers in an earnest and thoughtful
way to find out how we may relieve them
from their perplexities and burdens.
I will speak to-night with regard
to some of them which concern
especially the Northwestern and Southern
States, and through them the interest of
our whole country. Before the late rebel
lion, as the great cotton producing country
of the world, we had advantages over all
rival nations. This product stimulated
our commerce and gave the material need
ed to our manufacturers and brought in re
turn for its price from other lands the mer
chandize needed by our people, or turned
the balance of trade in our favor and filled
the vaults of our banks with gold or silver
money. As all the labor of the South
was engaged in this profitable culture,
they bought their provisions maiuly from
this and adjoining States, and thus the
corn, the wheat, the beef and pork of this
region were turned into cotton, and in that
shape reached the markets of Europe,
which they could uot do in their original
condition. When the civil war broke out
and this process was stopped corn fell so
low that in some parts of the West it was
used for fuel, and great distress prevailed.
The demand for our armies, and the mar
kets of the East and of Europe, restored
its value, but experience has taught you
that you cannot with safety count upon
being able to send at all times your pro
ducts to distant markets. Your interests
demand that the prosperity of the South
should be restored at the earliest moment.
We want them to help us pay our taxes.
The interests of our whole country de
mand that the culture of cotton should be
revived. Our foreign and internal com
merce is languishing tor the want of this.
The negro of the South cannot be advanc
ed in civilization and made a good
and orderly citizen unless he takes
money for his crops. What was the
first step taken by those in power when
the South, prostrated, poor and disorgan
ized, at the end of the war tried to carry
On the work of raising cotton with the aid
of enfranchised Africans ? The negro had
in many respects a deeper interest in the
success of the trial than the white man.
His very existence as a race, the whole
judgment of the world as to his capacity
to do the duty of an American citizen
hangs upon his success. Did these rulers
stretch out the helping hand ? No; they
said to the white man and negro alike,
“We will not let you get the full value of
our products in the markets of the world.
We will put a heavy tax on the cotton
whieh you send out of the country and you
shall sell it to Eastern manufacturers for
less than its value in the European mar
kets.” Now, this act was not only cruel
but it was revengeful. It crushed the first
efforts of reviving industry—it pushed
back an impoverished and disorganized peo
ple in their efforts to build up a social sys-
tem. It was one of the first great causes
of the disorders which exist at the South.
The unpaid African could not understand
why his employer was unable to pay him his
wages and was filled with hatred and rage to
ward him,and the employer found his slen
der means and low credit still farther weak
ened. In whose interest was this wrong
done? In that of the cotton manufacturers
of the East, whose profits have been enor
mous and who are protected by the highest
tariffs. How did this measure tell upon
farmers of the West? The planter could
not buy your corn or pork, and was com
pelled by starvation to raise these things
for himself, and you lost the markets you
should have gained and the export duty on j
cotton proved to be an export duty on j
corn. Every one tells you that agricul
ture lies at the basis of a nation’s pros-
perity and happiness. Every one knows
that there is distress all over our land if
produce does not call for fair prices. Yet
just here usury is eating away at the very
foundations of commerce and of national
wealth. Is this a matter of necessity, or
does it grow out of your rulers and out of
follies against which they were warned at
the outset by myself and others when our
official duties called upon us to protest
against them ? Why. to-day, in your
competition with commercial cities of the
East are your growing cities of the West
thus trammelled by want of a circulating
medium, thus loaded down by an interest
that no business community can pav and
prosper in the long run ? When I look
over statements, I find that more than
fifty-seven millions of this currency was
given to the State of Massachusetts, and
less than ten millions to the State of Illi
nois, yet you have twice the population of
Massachusetts ; yet that State needs but
a small amount, while yours requires more
currency than any other State ia the
Union. If discriminations were to be
- _ nwc IU UC
made, the interests of our whole country
demanded they should be in favor of the
agricultural States. If distribution had been
made in proportion to population you
would have had about twenty millions’ of
this currency and Massachusetts about
ten. The adjoining States of Wisconsin,
Michigan, lowa and others would also
have a much larger proportion than they
get now. The State of California and Ter
ritories of Montana, Idaho, and Utah
have some millions less circulation than
the single State of Massachusetts. You
would have gained, too, in another re
spect. As these States had at the time I
this currency was distributed capital to ;
take it up themselves, if it had been alot
ted to them, capitalists of the East would
hardly have brought their money here to
employ it in this region in the business of
banking. This addition to the business
capital of the West would have made a
great change in your affairs. Interest
would not at this time have ranged at
present rates; a vast amount of money
would have been permanently used to
promote your interests and prosperity, and
we at the East should have been saved
from great moral and business evils. While
you are getting forward your crops this
currency is forced into this section by the
high rate of interest paid for it During
the winter it accumulates in vast volumes
in the great cities of the East. There is
no want of it there for any fair purposes,
and if these banks were there this money
could be lent for useful objects; but those
who hold it, anxious to get some interest,
invite speculative movement in stocks or in
produce, which have been so hurtful to
business and morals. Not unfrequently
provisions which have been gathered in
the store houses of our cities are bought
up. The price of food is raised against
our laborers. Exportation is stopped, and
great misery is often caused in the homes
of those who live by daily toil. He who
will carefully look into the evils growing
out of this violence done to all fairness, all
wise statesmanship, will see that it has
been a curse alike to the East and West.
When you go to your local bankers to get
bills to pay for products of your State, he is
obliged to go to the East to borrow these
bills in that section, then to charge you
further usury, so that you pay interest to
two bankers. Therefore it is that discount
upon your paper is at such ruinous rates,
or. to state it in other terms, Illinois pays
interest to Massachusetts upon what
should be its own money. You of the
Wcst are tributary to the East for circula
tion, which rightfully belongs to the West.
The men in power who did this thing,
your own representatives who consented to
this law, now ask your approval of their
conduct. If it is a good thing to have
more than seventy dollars of currency to
each person in Rhode Island, why is it
not a good thing to have an equal volume
in your own State? Is it right that Mas
sachusetts should have fifty-two dollars to
each citizen while Illinois has but six,
and Michigan and Wisconsin but three
dollars ? The views I hold upon this sub
ject are not those which spring forward
now for the first time, when I am a candi*
date for your votes. Y'ears since, when I
was Governor of the State of New York,
as it was my duty, 1 looked to see what
made its greatness and prosperity. I
found your chief city was enriched because
it was a vast agency to sell the productions
of the people of the United States, and to
buy for them what they needed from
other countries. W who lived in the in
terior had the benefit of carrying upon
our canals and roads persons and property
of citizens of other sections. We found
our chief support was our relationship
with the West. In my message to £he
Legislature I urged it to enlarge this inter
course by a wise and liberal policy ; that
•we ought to carry Western produce to all
free on our canals rather than suffer its
diversion into other channels. But when
I look to the action of the General Gov
ernment I cannot see that they have given
any regard to a matter that more than
all others concerns your welfare. I
see taxation put upon it repeatedly.
At an early period in the world’s history
taxes were taken in kind from grain by the
Government as toll is taken by the miller.
If this was practiced now, and the value of
every tax and every stamp upon a bushel
of wheat as it passes from the hand ol the
farmer to the use of the consumer was
taken out of the bushel itself how mui h
would there be left of its original bulk ?
If any one would take pains to calculate a 1
this as it was dipped out by tax in all
hands, vessels and elevators through whi< b
it must pass, he would find it badly shrink -
ed when it had run the whole gauntlet of
imposts. Citizens of Illinois, I object to
the conduct of those in power that they
have not given thought or attention to
these and other great subjects which deep
ly concern you. 1 object to their conduct
in this canvass that, giving up their de
fence of their own action, they drive away
your thoughts from subjects that most
concern you, and that they attempt to in-
flame partisan zeal and passions by keep
ing alive all the animosity engendered by
civil war. Will our country ever be led
out of its difficulties by following in such
pathways? Will one policy ot the past
four years continued for a term of equal
length bring us out and place our interests
upon firm foundations? I appeal to every
thoughtful Republican if the teachings of
history or lessons of morality lead him to
the conclusion that the Republican party
should continue to hold unchecked power.
1 hey not merely ask that they shall have
substantial control of this country, but they
demand in addition to the Senate and the
House of # Representatives and the
army under command of their own can
didate, . that the Executive power
should also be placed under their direction.
More than 4,000,000,000 dollars have been
drawn from the people of the United States
since the Republican party took control of
the reins of Government. This vase sum
has been paid to somo one. It would be
an easy thing for those'who have kept the
records to let the public know something of
the details of expenses. For example,
besides the expenses of the Navy Depart
ment a great many vessels have been
bought or chartered by the War Depart
ment for the purpose of transportation. It
would not cost as much to print a list of
these vessels and of persons, with whom
the Government deait, and of prices given,
as it now costs to furnish members of Con
gress with penknives. If this list was pub
lished we should know if there had been
fair or foul dealings in the transactions.
Unless there is some change of those in
power the action of the Department cannot
be laid bare. The honor and interests of
the country demand such an examination
as shall dispel the suspicion which now
exists in the public mind, which shall
bring guilty men to punishment if wrongs
have been done. As the matter now stands
there is little confusion. After the official
statement of our debt had been put forth
to the public and received by it for years as
a true statement, an ingenious member of
Congress asserted that the public debt had
been lessened about $600,000,000 more
than we supposed Unfortunately, this
statement, which otherwise might have
been so comfortable, did not diminish the
amount of our present indebtedness,
but it was to show that at one time we
had owed much more than we sup
posed much more than had been stated,
and therefore we ’had paid more. This
statement was accepted by political lead
ers and by most of the officials of the Re
publican party, although it was in contra
diction of the solemn assuranocs which
which they had before given, from time to
time, about the finanoial'condition. What
can we think, and what can the world
think, of this system of accounts, which
admits of such monstrous discrepancies,
and what must be thought of the morality
that either now puts forth a gross mis
statement, or by its own showing deceived
the people in the past. The truth is, our
moneyed affairs are in utter confusion. The
Government cannot give to ‘ the world, it
cannot give to the people a statement
which shows whore we stand—an officer of
a corporation who should stand before its
stockholders as this party stands to-day
before the people of the country, giving
out such confused and conflicting state
ments would be disgraced in the eyes of
business men. For this reason our credit
is lower than that of Turkey. lam ad
vised that a leading journal of this city
proposed to make our ourrency as good as
gold by contracting its volume. This may
be done, but not until it has crushed eveiy
debtor and business man in the land, and
when ruin is brought, it will be found
you cannot make a bank note, bearing in
terest, with more than a bond which se
cures it, which pays more than 10 per
cent, interest. You can’t lift up our cur
rency to its nominal value until our bonds
are made worth their face, paid in the
currency of the world. This will not be
done until you have a wise and an honest
administration of Government. The Re
publican party has failed to make tbe peo
ple believe that it is wise and honest.
Our bonds pay a large interest, and it is
the want of credit and *rust ia the man
agement of our national affairs which
alone sinks them in the markets of the
world. With good credit we could float a
much larger currency than we now have.
We could relieve business men from enor
mous interest ; we could lessen taxation,
for we could lower interest accounts which
we now have to pay.
We could advance prices paid to labor
ers on farms and in workshops, because ail
transactions of life would be upon an
easier scale. The business men of Chicago
must decide for themselves which plan
they will follow to make their currency
good ; that policy put forth by your lead
ing Republican journal, of contraction with
its ruinous consequences, or that based
upon a wise administration of. public af
fairs. You cannot afford to decide this
question in a way to gratify merely your
passions and your prejudices against men.
It is one that comes home to you all in
your business affairs. Your decision will
affect me less than it* will yourselves, but
I invoke you, as a duty due to your State
and country, that you will calmly review
the action and omissions of the Republican
party, and then say, if you can, that its
policy has been marked by wisdom and
foresight, and .careful scrutiny of all the
great business and social interests of the
American people.
Governor Seymour concluded by calling
for three cheers for our whole country, three
cheers for the Union and three cheers for
our soldiers and sailors, all of which were
heartily given.
