M il w a u k e k , M H s ., i ‘or, >r, oper Democratic canspaign in Wisconsin lastnigl AHs., Sept. 6,-C o l. W illiam P. Vilas, secretary of the interi opened the with a speech a t West Side Turner hall. Juneau, Jefferson and Jackson clubs, ropr senting the Democratic organizations o f tl three divisions of the city, escorted him to' i audience o f mbers of the tlie hall, where there was about 1.500 persons. The Ladies’ Democratic club occupied seats out stOgo, us did the leading Democrats fr< various parts o f the state in attendance upon the Democratic state convention. Mr. Vilas said the Democratic party of to day, under the leadership and upon the per sonal and ofiicial record in administration o f Grover Cloveiand, challenges comparison with its decaying adversary and confidently invokes the calm and serious judgment of the electors of the nation. He then traced the history of the Republican pax’ty a t length. “Upon one pretext and another from al most the earliest grasp of Republican domin ion, corruption began its work and schemes for dishonest enrichment of the few began to prevail. There followed such a .sehjure of the national wealth b y various devices, so r.apacious, so gigantic, so ingenious in the methods by which the grasp was laid, as has never been exhibited in history. Nothing is comparable to it but India under Warren Hastings. Long, long ago,' the men who were conspicuous as its founders spurned it from till m as a n unclean thing. “What part h a s It played during the last three year.s? Besides a powerful minority in tho house, there jstbat venerable old club pf ancient partisans, the Republican senate. Look a t the senate's dealing with Chief Jus tice Puller, an honorable gentleman, learned, pure, able, The judiciary commit tee o f tho senate of the United States admits anonymous slander as an accusation against him, and for months suspends a nomination which dignity and justice required to be ap proved in almost as many days. “What was the matter with the fisheries treaty that it should have been rejected. “It is an easy answer—the truth need not be blinked. The secretary of state and his associates made a convention with England which would have done an excellent service to tho people of this 'country if the senate had r.itifled it. That was tho matter with the fisliories treaty'. “Tlie president^tudiestho situalion a nd dis cerns tho V. ay to administer wholesome dis cipline. Shut off their supplies through European iniportalinn and leave the bordere unbarni* d. It was the blow that Grant,with military sagacity, pi'opwed when in the chair. It promise-, to d o the work. True, it will fall most heavily on Northern New England. But there, too, lies the entire interest which has provoked the necessity, and it is but ju.st tho burden should be heavie.st where all the benefit is t o bo enjoyed. “Against this picture, fellow Democrats, c.sn we not confidently contract the action and the result o f Democratic rule during the brief period since its restoration. It you turn to the department o f state you find that every where the national dignity has been maintained. I f you take the treasury, its guardianship o f our financial interests com mands respect on every hand. Note these figures and see if there bo a n y significance in “The fiscal year ending June 80, 1885, which embraced the campaign of 1884, yielded a customs revenue o f but^lSl,000,000, $14,000,000 less than the previous year, while during the iiret year of this administration they yielded $193,000,000; during the second year $317,000,000, and during the third year $330,000,000. Is there no significance o f po litical methods in the sudden drop of $14,- 000,000 in the value of imports during the campaign year and the prompt restoration in that following? And note also in another aspect' the product of honest methods of col lection: The cost of collection for 18^ was .0344 per c ent.; in 1885 .0377 per cent.; in 1886, tho lirat -year of this administration, .0330 per cent.; the second year .0316, and tho third year, ending June SO, 1883, .0398. “Look also a L the internal revenue for a moment. The collections for the fiscal year 1885 (the last Republican yeaij were $113,- 000,000; for 1880 (Cleveland's first year), $117,000,000; 1887, .’$119,000,000; 1888, 8135,- 000,000. And the cost of collection fell from almost 4 per cent, in 1883 to barely over 3 per cant, in 1888.” navy.

Doubtless there be ; some who can not comprehend how bnshi has prospered; how society retains its form; how the laws can be admluistered under those conditions which promised nothing for the country but the ‘demuitiou bow-wows,' The government of Democracy, it was loudly proclaimed, would be a rebel government, and the maimed and glorious heroes of Wiqr were to be its victims. tw a s lou vwordi^ t h e nflSdal figures of tht doings of tho last throe years of llo- publioan administration—I moan the three years ending Juno 80, 1888. Wltli no larger force, ua.y, with a sninller forco of clerks and u&sistants in the Democratic bureau, 191,331 pension certificates were Issued. During the last thlfee years of Repubileau rule 859,454, nearly double the number issued during the Democratic three, an excess in favor of Democratic diligeneu and oonsiclerntion of 168,383. The not increase of pensioners on the roll during tli3 former period was 59.439; the net increase during the latter jieriod was 104,875, an excess under Democracy of 45,447; the new name s placed on the pension roll rluring the I'onn-ir three years, ii'3,315, an .against 173,1.83 in the la'ter; the udnii'-sion i f 79,917ppitsionfIS liy the Lcii-rorir.ie ad- n-lniRtrat’.i-n 111 txC'w;': I'-i v;-,:-.'!. \M>-r (l.vio iii Republicans in the saiuo period of tiuiu, and an increase of money payments of over $.34,000,000. “Silently and almost imperceptibly another emancipation has been vrrought during this term o f administration, the second deliver ance o f the colored race. A class of citizens who look upon a majority of thair fol low oolmtrynien with such alarm as the colored race was taught of the Democratic party cannot advance themselves, and they become an element of peril t o society. But alt this has been ohaugrd by that best of proofs, the actual experiment of the thing. The colored man has found the i and of the Democrat even more kindly to him, more hopeful to bis growth and enlargement than the profession of the Republican who wanted him for bis vote. “Another accomplishmont of the political change of 1884 affording the forward looker a greater satisfaction than almost any other, was the restored dominion of peace and fra- teraity inthe land. The benefits o f the fra ternal policy of Democracy have been con spicuous during tho past three years; the tide of commercial enterprise has sw-ept over the South and rejuvenated it with stirring life.

Already peti tions t o parliament to refuse to ratify tlie con vention are in extensive circulation and re ceiving a suprisingly large number of sig natures.
