A. 1 Jf RANSOM AT THE GRAND A GRi; 4T HPKECH TO A UHE4T Al'DIENCK Haudsotnel Introduced b IS . Carter The Repeal ol the Fed eral Election Lawn Oilier is sues Discussed. There were manv ladies in the audi ence that greeted Senator Mutt W. Ran soin in the Grand opera house today. It was fire minutes past one when Sen ator Ransom came on the stage, nccom panied by County Chairman J. G. Mar tin, E. D. Carter and W. Randolph Ou the stage were Mnj.C. M.Stedman J. S. Adams, Judge H. B. Carter, Hon W. T. Crawford, Col. J. D. Cameron Auditor R. M. Furman, Judge Thos Jones, Locke Craig and others. Mr. Harry Martin, stepson of the late Senator Vance, accompanied by his wife, occupied one of the private boxes. The Introduction. Senator Ransom was introduced by lilt;:. D. Carter, esq., in the following words: billow citizens: The distinguished citizen, patriot, orator, statesman, Dcm ocrat, North Carolinian, 1 have the honor to pnscnt to you on thisoccasiou needs no words ol introduction to Buncombe audience. For more than 4-0 years he has been a leader of thought in our ueioven Mate; an orgauizcr, con troller and director of her truest and wisest political lorecs; a living potential ity in me worK 01 ner highest upbuilding . ui niai .Kin ii ifiuui y nc mis men 111 the lorclront ol all her struirirlcs: a iral- lant cautam ot the host, ot Detnocrncv in every battle they have waged for the triumph anil establishment ol thoseever living principles upon which we have planted ourselves: principles which have stood the test of nil the mutations of tunc mice the highest political wisdom has come and dwelt among men, and which have seen thrones crumble and dynasties fane away. in times ol war ami m tunes ot icacc, as a leader he has never faltered. Through the red l.laz ; of battle the li a t and loyal sons of North Carolina have followed him; via, 'into the i-tws ol death' they lullowul him; thoiieh 'can uon to right of them and cannon to lift of them and cniinon in front of them volleyed nnd thundered.' vet when his clarion voice ordered the i barge and his manly form led it cm, serried ranks were broken asunder and bloody Ik Ids were won. "Today, fellow cit-zens. that clarion voice will sound once mure as a buelo call to arms. Men ol Iliineoinhc, fillow Democrats, patriots, soldiers who stood with him wnerc i lie thickest ol war s tunnests lowered,' sons ol heroes who died obcy- ug the voice that will command voti today, heed, 1 beseech you, the words ol patriotic wis loin he will speuk to vou "Once again our gallant commander will order the charge; aye mure, be will lead it; follow hitr. and swep the fieid! I present to you Senator Ransom Tbeaena'or's Hpe.ch. Senator Ransom began his spcich in a most deliberate way amid shunts of up pin use. He thanked Mr. Carter for bis kind words, and the people for their greeting lie stood, he said, before the people today in the shadow of a great sorrow North Carolina's greatest sou mid ora tor was not here. Mr. Ransom paid n wing tribute to Senator Vance. He aid be could not let the day and the occasion pass without cutting a llower ind shedding a tear upon the grave ol Vuncf. '1 w ish," he said, "I could make you see and feel the issues tndav. as I see mil feel them." He regretted that there was not apparent a proper appreciation n t lie pan ot the people of the serious ness ol the is-uc involved in tins fiuht. )ur ancestors bad left Uneland to make their home on this continent. Thev had faced the sea, the night, the wild Indian, all for liberty, nnd to worship God as they phased. If lie could paint the pic ture of these few hundred people losing all to gain victory, he would have shown the people ol todav how greet a boon was liberty. It was impossible to fully understand just what these great people did in thus building up this great temple of liberty. He had reminded the people today of there nets of our forefathers to show them that it was important for the people to remember the price of liberty. , 1 be Dead Force Bill, hi December last, the Democratic party, the party the speaker represented had passed as the first act of Mr. Cleve land's administration, the repcul of the infamous federal election laws that had disgraced our statute books, and humil iated our Southern people. It would be impossible In the future to see such men ns Scbactler, a postmustcr at Raleigh, an interloper from Ohio, oppress our people through these infamous laws. In his mind's eye the speaker could sec our revolutionary ancestors, from their home in the world beyond, rejoicing that these ut just laws have bceu wiped out. He hoped he would never have to see a North Caro'in'nn who was not proud thut these laws were no more. II the Democratic party had done nothing but wipe out the federal election laws he would be proud tbut he gave bis allegi ance to that party. North Carolina had alwnys loved liberty. No people on earth had loved it more. The TBfllTBIH "I have told you," added the Senator, "what the Democratic party lias done for liberty, now I will tell vou what the Democratic party has done in the way of business. The present Congress passed a tarilTbill, not what all wnntid, not all thut I wanted, but it wasthr oest tariff law that was ever enacted." Senator Ransom said this deliber ately. If he did not believe it was true he would not say so. It was better than the Morrison bill, better than the Mills bill; it was, in his judgment, the best tariff bill ever passed by the American Congress. That bill gave all the people free salt, something we have not bad lor 30 years. And th it is not all. Who would have thought six months ngo that cotton bagging and cotton tics would ever be tree in this country ? Vet thev are free today, livery kind of nuri- cultutal implements is free under the Democratic tariff bill. When he last spoke to the people of nuncouibc he had asked them bow we could ever hope to prosper when the manufacturers sold all these implements to fonignersat prices scarcely more than half what they charged our own people. The speaker spoke of John Wannama- ker, one ol the five largest merchants in thel uited States. ohn Wannamaker would not tell tales to advance the inter est of the Democratic parlv. Thrcedavs after the Democratic tariff bill was passed Wannamaker advertised to the world that the Democratic tariff bill had passed, he had just gotten from the cus tom hous GOO bales of goods of all kinds, which he could now sill ot one half what thev were sold for hrfurp tli tariff bill was passed. There ure l.TOO.OUO neonle in Xnrtk Carolina. At least 400,0(10 of these have accounts nt stores. The average vctiiiy iurc account is ahout $100. Take off ot each of these 400,000 accounts 25 per cent. This means n sav ing to North Carolinians of $10,000,000 per year; one million more than the cot ton crop is worth; twice us much as the tobacco crop. Tlii3 means much more man an increase of the mor-cv per eapit to oo. it saves the nioucv in the i,r..-L els of the people. The wav to lieln Hi. p ople is to ieduce the taxis, and this is what the Democratic party has done. Massachusetts is u grout Stale, has great people, but it is cold and barren compared with the warmth and produc tiveness of the South, vet under Kemilili can laws Massachusetts had accumulated more wealth than Virgitiia, North Car olina, touth Carolina. 1-Orida.
