T h e outside organization then was the L ib e r ty party, whose m o tto was “ F ree T rade, F r e e Soil and F r e e M e n ,” w h ich finally blossom ed into th e rep u b li can party. In th a t cam p a ign M a rtin G rover was a n indelatigable; a n d a prom inent speaker on the dem o c ratic side. H e was know n throughout the S tate as the “ R a g g e d L a w y e r,” because he*was indifferent as to his person or dress. H e usually wore an unlaundiied s h ir t of un-. certain age, a suit of H o d d e n G ray, a slouched and nattered tile and one boot and an untied shoe. H e wore nothing th a t was not purely dom estic down to the tow string in his shoe. T h u s ac coutred, a good m o d el for a corn field scare-crow, he would s e t out on a fog ging expedition or stum p ing tour. H e was hale fellow w ith everybody and the “ boys” always addressed him as M a rt. H e took no offense at any fam iliarity. H e was a tru m p card for his p a r ty and drew large crow d s at his m e e tings. H e was really a genius and gave con vincing a n d telling speeches. T h e y were inim itable for broad hum o r and con vincing from tlie sim p licity and clear ness of h is argum e n ts , ^ i t h a piping tenor voice and a nasal tw a n g , peculiar to him self, he attracted attention and could be heard m idst the w ildest confu sion.
