Fallon: Citizens: I thank you for
the honor you have bestowed upon
roe. Naturally it is pleasin3 to me
that after nearly four years of ser
vice as the prosecuting officer of the
state the Democratic part' should
again designate rne as its candidate
for that posi-ioQ. I accept the trust,
and acknowledge its gratuitous be
stowal. I wish to thank the members of Ihe
hu- irrespective of party, for the
and courtesy which at all
, cha:actcrzej their action

jti ev.orld that in some measure at
!ki?,t j wa .Vlirthy t5ie conficient of
ni fellow-citizens, that county whose
I e p!e rather forgive thau to find a
fault, the home of sturdy manhood,
the dwelling place of peace, conser
vaiive, but at ail times papriotic,
whose f rst alirgiance 13 to country,
but whose next allegiance is to the.
Democratic party. I refer to the
bani;-;r Democratic c-juniy of North
Carolina, which I have the honor to
eai; liij hi .jo.
Nothing that I know of hs occurr
ed to cause us to falter in our allege
ancc to the Democratic party; much
aas occurred to increase our failh, to
arouse our enthusiasm, to make us
proud that we are Democrat.
Men should be patriots then par
t;sans. Iu an hour when national
li.e is ttrenvened with attack, when
loretsn criminals fill the air with
curses aud threats agaius t the lives
of those in authority and with exul
tations over the murder of the great
President of our sister Republic
across the sea, when United States
troops juard the passage of mails.
1 protect private property and inno
cent, life from the attack of the mob,
when war is in-minent, where is the
American: citizen, no matter what be
his" political party who does not
thank God that moral courage, lofty
patriotism and genuine manhood are
to be found in the chair of the Presh
dent of the United States. Let there
be honest differences of opinion from
the policy of the President, but let us
not fail to accord to him that which
his political enemies concede an
honesty af purpose in all things and
1 stern determination to do what
seems to him right.
No President ever had a greater
task before him than lid Mr. Cleve
laud when he t.ok tiie Presidential
chair. II13 election made him the re
cei.e of a bankrupt government,
rendered bankrupt by the criminal
extravagance of the Republican
j party. The surplus left by him in

to meet the demands made upon tho
j 2!Vc.-n me nt. Those bonds v-.-ere only
j issued because there was not enough ;
money of any kind in the Treasury
;0r either gold or silver to meet the
obligations of the governm :ut. What
else vii uld any sensible man, any
business man have done under the
circumstances? No one claim that
a single dollar of the money Las been
improperly expended.
But iho question is ashed, what
has the Democratic party done since
it has been iD power? Some of our
Republ cian and Populiat friends
actually have the impudence to ask
this question. Thyy commenced ask.
ing it even before Congress convens
ed; they have kept it up sever since;
and the last husky whisper of the old
dying Republican carceass will pro
bably be. what has the Democratic
part done? Weil, what has it done? Is
there one of us so ignorant who can
not tell what it ha3 done? It has dis
covered twenty "five millions of doK
lars of fraudulent Republican pens
sions and has cut them off; it does
not lie about the condition of the
Treasury ; it has repealed the last
remnant of a Federal election law; it
has provided to raise thirty millions
of dollars out of the plethoric in
cornea of the country (much to the
sorrow of our Populist friends); it
has passed a bill reducing an unjust
war tariff twentysfive per cent; it has
placed many of the necessities of life
on the free list; it has provided to
make farming implements cheaper;
it lias saved to the farmers of the
South nearly half a million dollar on
the item of cotton ties alone; it has
treated with justice ever' part of the
union; and it will provide for the
coinage of both gold and silver as
the money of the nation; this is what
it has doae in less than a 3 ear,
what would it not accomplish for the
people if it had as long as the Re
publican party? These hypocrites
pretend that they expect us to undo
in less than one year all the rascality
that their ingenuity devised iu thirty
years.
And when they almost lose breath
asking what the Democratic p. arty
has done they actually have tbe :a'ro-
gance to accuse us of failing to pro
vide for the froe coinage of sdver tnd
failing to repeal the tax on the issue
of State banks. Well, ia that tleir
businesis? Were they in favor , of
either of the3e measures? One of
them asked me about this the other
day. "You failed to pass a free
coinage bill," ' said he. "Were you
in favor of that measure," said I?
Oh no," said he. "But you failed
to repeal the State bank tax," said
he. "Were you in favor of the repeal
of that measure," said 1? ,'. "Oh no,"
said he. "Well then what; have you
got to do with. it?"
. Rut they 3ay they want to get into
power again to givft us honest elec
tiohs. They give us honest elections?
They who more than once stole the
house, once the Senate and once the
Presidency, they give tia honest elec
tions who carried the ballot boxes in
this very county to South Carolina
to be counted? God forbid that our
elections should ever again he givan
over to that set of men.
But they want to reduce taxes in
North Carolina, who believes they
could do it in the first plf.ee and in
the next place, who believes they
would do it if they could. The taxes
ate less in North Carolina than they
ever have been, even less than they
were when cur great and philanthro- j

friends were id power, less than the j
taxes ofanv State that touches us !

Washington, D. C.
July 26th. 1691,
When the tariff fifr'ut was st its

without construction. The motion
was accepted by the D ember
