Kut as a principle, or the slightest semblance of one, it is curiously unple: 1884 AND 1888, THE campaign of 1888 will be a discussion of public affairs from a stand- point advantageous to the Republican party. In the last presidential contest the party in power, because in power, was necessarily on the defensive. Its colors were protected and its responsive ammunition was fired from behind intrenchments. The attacking party that scrambled over the barri- cade with a howl of hunger were urged by leaders who frenzied their fol- lowers with visions of lucre ind loot.

The official environments of the Republican party have been leveled for three years, and its archives open to inspection. ‘The veterans have tile ‘The eager light of a glaring and yet microscopic scrutiny has been turned on ‘The books have been opened and scanned; every possible spot has been explored. Anxious political hounding, spurred by hope and stimulated by reward, has nosed along every crevice of suspicion. The public servants whom envy and greed branded as “rascals to be turned out” are by verdict of their accusers shown to be honest men. No extravagance discovered, no dishonesty found, no dollar lost, no service neglected. The treasury, emptied by the heedlessness and larceny of the last Democratic administer found filled, and overflowing, to hand over to the next. The great stink-pot artridge of falsehood and calumny, intended to suffocate the Republican party to extinction, burst and spattered its own projectors. Even the civile service gun, manned and manipulated with kid-glove delicacy, kicked with more vitality in its breech than in its muzzle. The arraignment against the administration in occupancy is this no longer a Democratic party. One after another the sportive denizens of that political sea have been chewed and swale lowed, and have added nutrition to the executive mammalia, All auda- cious or imprudent enough to sport with the presidential complacency are doomed to mastication, and the school is dis. tinguished and large that is forced into his maw with a menace or a veto. to further reinforce and fatten his political girth. Cleveland has cajoled and spurned the reformers whose bent backs he used for his stepping-stone. sneer pension bills to save soldiers. {rom an alms-house, he nevertheless truckled to the south with his order to return the rebel flags. The loyal protest stung him, not with regret, but with dismay, and he cowardly shuffled his propitiatory purpose to the shoulders of a subordinate. Vacil lating with vanity, or stirred by a love of power, he wiped off his bulletin board his early platitudes on the danger to good government of the solicitous seeking of a second term, and demanded a renomina- tion, Pessimist or hypocritical, he has prostituted the public service to personal rather than party ends, and yet parades with a Pecksniffian air of virtue. He has alienated a large portion of the Democracy by his English subserviency in the pro- posed fishery treaty; yet with an auto cratic assumption of power, against the expressed enactment of a Democratic house and a Republican senate, obstinately projects negotiations distasteful and h miliating to the American people. Above all, finding the indictment of dis honesty against the Republican party unproved and untrue, to attain fictitious conspicuousness before the country, to retain his seat, he launched the issue of free trade, preferring rather than lose it to paralyze our industries, and as far as possible relegate the United States to a colonial position.
