The daily phoenix. (Columbia, S.C.) 1865-1878, April 16, 1875, Image 1
,BY JULIAN A. SBLBY
Speech of Governor Allen, of Ohio.
There was an immense gathering
of Ohio Democrats at Columbus on
Wodnesday night, called for the
purpose of holding a jollification
over the victories at tho municipal
elections in Ohio and the victory
in," Connecticut. 100 guns were
fired, and there was a fine display
of fire-works. A band of mn
Bic helped to cultivate tho enthu?
siasm of tho people, and altogether
the affair made an eminently re?
spectable opening of tho campaign.
A number of speeches were made.
That of Governor Allen is given in
part below:
My Fbienes and Fellow-Citizens :
Ninty-nine years have passed away
since the declaration of our inde?
pendence. During all that time
American people have been school?
ed in the theory, and have enjoyed
tho practice, of free government.
It is at. the close of the century
that we find ourselves assembled
here to-night to debate tho ques?
tion, not about a practical measure,
but about the life of this Govern?
ment, the continuance of our free
institutions. You have heard tho
100 guns fired' ? A little while ago
jWO ;'h.ear4, Q$ ^h? 1^0 guns being
lirod in tho State of Connecticut to
rejoice over the first instance in our
history where the bayonot had beon
substituted.for the ballot in a free
and independent State. Those guns
WOTO'iirod totexpress tho joy of the
small remnant of the Grant party
over the reversal of tho decree of
the ballot box by the use of the
bayonet, but there was an expres?
sion load and deep, conclusive 'and
damning,, by the people of Connec?
ticut. For that act they put up
the man Who had fired those guns
tfnd offered him to the people as a
candidate fpr Governor. A pretty
Go venor ho would have in ado! They
sent him adrift by 9,000 votes care?
fully counted, a majority equal to
7Q.0Q0 majority in Ohio. I guess
we'll give about that majority next
fall. I don't think the people of
Ohio will fall in with the bayonet
anymore than the cold, calculating
Yankees of, Connecticut. What
doe* ?11 this mean? "What power
w&Bithi? that had become so pow
erf^in the eyes of tho President?
They had seen tho effect of the
vote in Ohio: two years ago, and
the still greater effect of the vote
one-year ago. They found by this
verdvit thattheir' power was con?
demned and their ministers in the
House of Representatives outlawed
by' their own constituents, not the
Bastile. The Democrats do not
want Bastile. All we want is a lit?
tle ballot box, with a hole in the top
of.it. We don't allow people in
the garb of Grant to put a bayonet
in the hole. This is a wonderful
country, and the ballot box is a
tremendous revolutionize!'. On the
8th of January, 18GG, there was a
Democratic meeting in Columbus.
I, with many others, was invited
np here. It was a night meeting,
and the Democrats were so few
that they didn't core to hold open
street meetings, So we went into
a house and had something to eat,
and'being orthodox Democrats, we
had a little liquor to drink. I
commenced a speech by alluding to
the answer of a king when he was
about to depart on an expedition
East and was dividing his private
fdrtu^'anioug hifr.frionds. When
his steward-afikod what be would
have loft to > himself, . Alexander,
responded: "Hope, and that is
entfpg&*''-':rth.6n proceeded to say
yt?lW.*0?$fy enteif upon the
onjwjgpir^jpt^viflg the institutions
of our country. I said we were,
bereft of rJi power; wo had not a
Dfltaotoatljft' State in' the TJinou,
auu WjJ?ff? ppwer.in Congress. ."We
were, nothing but'.a, Ijjniited mass of
private, individuala, and I asked,
when speaking of the forlorn posi?
tion of the Democratic party, .what
bdd that party to expect, going into
a contest -.sgainc*;' 'stich1 cdd? I
responded by saying, that , though
. dejBtUrifa of all power they sfcfll had
a mighty power in there hands:
"Hope, and that is enough." We
wont into the wary and, seven years
eftar that, when the Democratic
mlitfffbMhd Wols Country was do
pw?tetl, w&etf the Democrats were
scouted ,as .rebels,.,traitors and cqo
perheads, we resolved to prosecute
the war with no arms, ammunition
or baggage wagons, but with hope.
"Let our Just Cerm
CO
I was called out of ray regiment of
twenty-four yearn to command. I
was placed at the head of the for?
lorn hope and ordered to storm
the enemy's works. A breach was
made, and through that breach the
next year the whole Democratic
party rushed aud mado the enemy
surrender their guns. That shows
the power of hope. Well, as soon
as we turned these fellows out at
the last fall election, they said it
would do?trust to the little hole in
the ballot box. Hero were sixty or
seventy men who had beon out?
lawed and told to scamper, but
they had tbreo months of power
yet. There were three ways to use
it. One was to detect and punish
the rogues who extended from one
end of the country to the other;
another was to economize in expen?
ditures, and the other to reduce
taxes. This would have soothed
the rage against their bad conduct.
Instead of that, they increased ex?
penses and taxes, let public debt
go up instead of down, and went
to work to hamper the ballot box.
They began by applying the law to
the whole of the United States, but
they reduced it to four Statos. I
cannot go further into details on
all their measures. But you will
hear it said by the late Republicans
that they are not third-term men,
and so Congress thought when it
met; but what did Congress think
when it adjourned? It is sufficient
to say that thirty-three Senators,
after Grant's conduct in Louisiana
matters had been condemned over
and over by Congress, solemnly
declared Grant had done a good
thing in using the bayonet. They
told Grant, by their endorsement,
'to do the thing over again as often
as ho pleased. By that time they
loarncd that Grant had the office
and the power to hold it so far as
their party was concerned?tbe
power to be nominated for the
third time. Grant has the office
Jbis

holders, three or four millions of i
money, tho army and navy and the
party machinery, and when the
Convention meets it will nominate
Grant for tho third term, and hoist
his prospects on the point of the
bayonet. Democracy represents
tho ballot, and they are opposed to
the ballot. It will then be the
ballot on one hand and the bay?
onet on the other, that's all there is
about it. We don't intend to allow
any gouging. They can't rely on
the men who formerly constituted
the Republican party. Wo will
get one-half of them. We have
made room in our ranks for about
a million of men. They havo got
their bellies full of Grantism, and
will come into our party. What
could explain this tremendous
sweep of the people against power?
What could explain this tremen?
dous revolution? Nothing but the
rectitude of Democratic principles
and the recititude of Democratic
victories.

The symptoms of Liver Complaint arc
uneasiness and pain in the side. Some?
times the pain is in the shoulder, and is
mistaken for rheumatism. The stomach
is affected with loss of appetite and sick?
ness, bowels in {?enenu costive, and
sometimes alternating with lax. The
head is troubled with pain, and dull,
heavy sensation, considerable loss ol
memory, accompanied with painful sen?
sation of having left undone something
which ought to have been done. Often
coriplaining of weakness, debility and
low spirits. Sometimes many of th
above symptoms attend the disease, nud
at other times, very few of them; but th
Liver is generally tho organ most in
volved.
