April 23, 1885 issue

add to cart   close window

This article focuses on the speeches of two Republican Party leaders, William Maxwell Evarts and Charles G. Dawes, made at the dinner of the Middlesex Club in Boston, Massachusetts. Evarts opened with some account of his boyhood in Boston, and then called attention to the fact that he was speaking on the anniversary of the fight at Lexington. Dawes was no more instructive than Evarts. He mentioned the principles of the Republican party, on to say that they were laid in the foundation and built on the super-structure of the past.
