Washington Union in reference to the establishing
of party papers places for the avowed purpose Of
advocating the pretensions of an asplrant to MIR.
Folks successorship. The Union alluies to the pro-
posed resuscitation Of the ''Iadidnd Democrat at
Indianapolis at whose head will stand the maine of
Lewis Cass, for President in 1913. 'Ths," says the
Union of the l3th ''ln our humble Judgment, Is
wrong, and will give it the name Of "Cass" in
stead of democratic paper and tend to create Jeal
ousies and divisions in the party, without benehtng
the disting uished statesman they design to aid We
have repeatedly said that now is not the time to agi
tate the question of succession We 90 further, and
say once, frankly, that better plan could be de-
vised njure the prospects of any candidate than
bring him forward at so early period. We made
this remark to the friend of another distinguished
gentleman the other day. And repeat it here
much as we respect and admire Gen. Cass, it is too
early in the day to bring him any forward.
The present administration has Just commenced.
The great principles which II was elected have not
yet been fully carried out. Let establish them,
before enter into any struggles for the succession
We are prepared to use this language towards the
friends of any man. (be he whom he may,) who is
brought thus early into the field
We are confidently advised that MIR. Cass himself
dsapProbates this policy the part of some of his in
discreet friends not only as respects this particular
press in Indiana, but all Others of its character.
This makes no difference, however, with most of
that class of partizans who have, disputed undis-
puted, attached themselves and their political for
tunes to the skirts of this able statesman. They, in
most cases,-and Instance this in Indiana-are
mere Adventures, who have bankrupted their
putation for honesty and attachment to dcmocratic
doctrines and democratic success and therefore SEEK
in this prominent and popular democrat, to form an
alliance which will them from sinking into po-
/ litical oblivion Many Of them admit, are sim
cere in their political and personal friendships with
the General, and trusty and able democratsi but
in majority of they of such character as 10

loved man in the democratic family. And this Gen.
eral Cass is fully of and far he can, we
doubt not, Will set his influence against it. 1t will
be more important to himself than the united demo-
cratic party if he succeeds in cutting loose from such
an incubus upon his popularity and aspirations.
One feature in these openly declared and also of
the halfway CdSS organs in the west-in Indiana
and Ohio, especialy-is prominent. They are all
dis )rganizing-a loose in political doctrnes-''ex
pedency'' things-clamoring about men and utterly
Indifferent about measures. This can be blind
to who observes Them This it is that brings reproach
upon the pretended favorite. The of principle
the party, who nought who their President is
if they know him to be sound in their faith and
compromising in his labors for the cause and the
country, this political feature and mark it, They
see IT so frequently and prominently that they
not resist forming an estimate of the candidate from
their knowledge of the who his partizans and
the presses that are his organs. We admit that it Is
unjust estimate the political sincerity and political
and moral worth of Gen. Cass by the standard of the
presses that blazon his name, and in many instances
the partzans who hang to his skirts yet, declare
that such association has done him infinite harm
in Ohio and Indiana, and will continue to weigh him
down, as with leaden wings, if it is not severed
Witnessing the connecting of his and his Pre-
sidential pretensions, by some rotten Bank cormor-
and adventures at Akron, Ohio not long before
the late Presidential contest, with local State poll
itics-with a swindng Banking system, then in its
inception and now in Its progress. What had the
name of CdSS to do with either rotten with
''sound and solvent Banks, safe to the bholder and
profitable to the Banker" here in Ohio? Nothing
under Heaven but to strengthen the who thus
poached upon his good name and his rising popuar-
ty. But, the transaction marked by the sound
democracy, and it took strong hold their prejud-
ccs to the injury of the prominent who had thus
been unwttingy used We have said before, and
we say it again, that CaSS deserves 10 hare better
Griends-we mean Those who are clamorous in his
cause. He has heretofore had good to ex-
claim, Save me from my friends
With this expression of our view Of the matter we
must close with the sentiment of the Washington
Union that now is not the time to agitate the ques-
ton of the succession" -''no better scheme could
be devised inure the prospects of any candidate
than to bring him forward at SO early period"
