Tanner discuss thu political Issues from
a ltopubllcan standpoint. Mr. l'utihur
was jtiHt a plain oiillnary soldier during
the war, or up to tlio thno lio was disa
bled, which was at tho second battlo of
nun nun. llu Is a little le ow, about
lorty-nvo j ears oi ago, and Huh a iieavv

After the war hu natno became iniic

at thu owning ami closing of thu meet'
ing.
li. 1. liarln, clialrman ol tlio lteimbli
can Statu Central Committee, Introduced
the speaker in the loiiowing words:
"James Tanner, of Now York, has
been Invited by the State Central Com
inltteo of thu ltenubliean part) to deliver
an address to thu citizens ol l'orthtnd.
Ho 1m well and favorably known through
out thu nation as Corporal Tanner. Al
though it mere boy ho responded to thu
lit hi cull ot tlio country lor men, tiuctied
on his cart i Idee box, shotilduted his
musket, walked forth under thu stars and
striuH, ami at thu expense of both legs
fought for Ills country, and shed blood
for tlio grand right ot citizenship."
Tho Hioakcr commenced by Haying
that ho judged humanity by himself, and
if they were taken at a disadvantage bv
such comparison tlioy could attribute ft
to his Ignorance of human nature. IIu
felt called upon tlrst of all to Hay that hu
had never U'en made to feel more at
homo, outsldu of his own family, than In
Oreeon. and hu desired to return his sin
ce ro thanks for tho warmth of gteeting
with which hu hud been received in 1'ort-
land.
Ho was a unmoral. That was thu onlv
distinction hu over achieved In thu army..
Couldn't all be brigadiers, ho mild, and
thu chuneo for promotion was small, and
thu only reason why thero was any
chuneo was that there were not trees
enough to go around among thu olllcers.
'twas a boy ol seventeen when 1 ran
away and joined thu army, ami never
saw a railroad' train till then. At tho
second battle of Hull Hun I tried to stop
a shell and lost both my legs below thu
knees, I will not say that l am not a
coward, but uo ouo over know mo to run
since that time." Ho soko of being
collector of tho port of llrooklyn, of tho
picnics ho Had as ncad ot tho water
drainage committee, and of his
lirst introduction to ueucrai mocuiu, titter
tho war. Thu general grastied his hand
and said: "I'm dam glad to know you
what will you havo to drink V" Tho
speaker said ho drank whisky onco, but
it was when ho was at work kneo-deep lu
thu swamps of thu Chlekalinuiluy, and
hu thought tho conditions uxctircd tho
act. Now, no such conditions existed,
ami ho never drank. Coming down to
(MjlitlcH, tho speaker said hu wus a Ite
publican front way back. "I fought for
thu principles of that party lsjforc old
enough to vote," ho said, "and I am a
1 lU'piihllcuu trout the crown oi my noad
to too as tar nown us k'- rjfiiKiiiK
of tho feeling that existed between tho
soldiers who wore thu blue and those
who woro tho gray, bo said : "I am ono
of thu men for whom tho war outlet! at
Ap)iiiutox. I said years ago tlmt if thu
very man who fired the hIioII that crippled
me Hliould walk into my oillco and say
that ho was and would Ihi loyal to tho
restored union, I would cheerfully extend
mv right hand and Hay "put her thero,
Johnny," and this Is not jwrsonal bun
combo, but it is tho sentiment of tho
army of veteraim whoHtlll survlvo." Tho
ehargo that thu 0. A. It. it a wlltical
factor in tho Interest of ItopubllcatiH
wa totnbatted. Members of that order
wero asked but ono ipiestlon r "Did you
Horvoand havo you an honorablo tils
chargu?" Thero wero no questions asked
as to clitics or religion. Tho (J. A. It.
man, who fought for tho defence of his
country, had a perfect right to vote any
ticket ho choso, and thero is no man
who towers high enough to challenge
that right. Hu said thu war was now a
quarter of a century behind, and thanked
Uod that luternecino strife would never
again troublo this glorious country. Hut
are wo reaping the full bonollt of the ef
fort made so many yean) ago?

An inquest was held esterduy afternoon

on account of to-day Itoiug an English
his position on thu tarill'and internal rev
enue questions, and said that front thu
Utterances of the I'tesideut he understood
the oxecutlvo to bo averse to any redue
lion of internal taxes, as that modo of
taxation ullorded, in the opinion of tlio
l'resident, no just complaint, and that
nothing else is so well able to bear the
buiden without hardship to uny jsirtion
of the people. Thu l'tesldent further said
that tho turlll'luw was a vicious and illou
leal source of incquittthlo tax, uud ought
to bo modltled, and tho i'lvsklent hud
urged upon Conuress immediate uxnros
siou on thu matter to the exclusion of all
others. Thu President hud asserted, in
substance, mat tnu reduction necessary
should 1)0 made by additions to thu freu
list, mm by lowering the rates of duty.
In thu presence of such lani'uaeo. em
limiting from thu oxecutlvo, it was luiier
atlvely required of thu representatives of
tho people to give fair, intelligent, uud
prompt attention to thu suggestions
made. Hu had Introduced a bill, some
of thu piovlslons of which wore at viu-
uncu with those iccommcmlcd by thu
President. Ihu President nought to pre
vent thu continuation of thu surplus rev
enue by changes in customs duties only.
Tlio remedy that hu (llandall) proosud
wan throULrli reinjul of the Internal rove-
nuo taxes, as well as by a full ruvlsiou of
tho tarlll', as promised the iieoplo by thu
Democratic convention of 188 1. 1 ho re
ductlou provided for in his bill aggregates
$77,000,000 of Intel nal taxes. Those
taxes Had always iieen thu last to Ihj lev
led ami last to lo leiiealed when no
longer necessary. Jellerson had given
thu death blow to excise taxes, that
most vicious of all taxes, and received thu
thanks of thu I-cgislutiiro of his native
Statu for havltur internal tuxes abolished,
Tho llrst tax also that hu ruualod after
tnu war oi .hi. imu been thu excise lux,
which was recommended by Madison,
and tho ilrst law enacted under thu ad
ministration of Mouroo.
Ho referred to thu declarations of his
colleague, Scott, as mipcrilclal. He
pleaded with tils Democratic irlemls to
not undo tho good which had been done
to nianufactiulnii iudustties by tho pro
tective taiiir, and lead from Jellerson,
Mouroo and our Democratic forefathers
to prove that protection was tx fundamen
tal Democratic principle.
Hu favored now. as ho had alwayH
done, total repeal of thu internal rovenuu
taxes (applause. In thu hill which hu
introduced, hu proposed to sweep all
those taxes ft om thu stutiit" books, ex
cept a tux of fifty cents on whisky, and
ho would transfer tho. collection of that
tux to custom olllcium If found practi
cable.
MoMiinovof Ohio followed in a loin;
sjoech in favor of protection. Ho closed
by saying that there would lu an opjair
tunlty for tho soplu of this country to
uxpress their will next Novomlcr; for If
tho people of tho country want free tindo,
it was their privilege to havo it, but thoy
must voto forh full, fair and candid dis
cussion. A majority of tho representa
tives on tho lloor of this House woro not
authorized to voto for this bill by thu
oleetion of 18811. Tho House was not
elected on tlmt issue. Ho challenged thu
authority of thu gentlemen under thu in
structions given them by thu people two
years ago, to lorco tho measure through
thu House. Ho asked thu iiieinlers of
tho present Congress to go back to tho
H'Ople anil list to no eiecten to tuo uny
Irst Conuress on this bill, uud on the
President's message, and then see if tho
majoiity returned to thu next House win
bo authorized, or Instructed, to voto for
this bill. Do not dodge, but meet the is
suo squarely.

Tho present law was so highly prolecllvu

Several tltnea slncu this debate com
menced, thu true argument against this
bill, thu only real ell'ect ivo npeal, has
Ih'uii uttered. It may be condensed Into
"United wo stand, divided wo fall." It
Is tho argument of combination, of threat.
Each protective syndicate says to ull tho
others In this greatest of all combina
tions, the American tarlll' combined,
"Wo must stand together for defeat any
wheru is defeat uverywheru." So tho solo
duty that any ouu will give up, Is that on
sugar, liecauso thoy believe tho surrender
of sugar will take from tho treasury so
many millions that thu other duties may
bo saved. Tho promise to give Isnintlos
Is purely illusory Tho present tarlir is
thu result of combination. This Is to bo
maintained by combination.

It apjioars that J. A. Dally and Tom

Thoy then went together to tho Wheeler
