Ia the same spirit the Detroit Free Press comes to the
rescue. and speaks with all the energy and truthful
ness OF democrat After quoting article some
days ago. the distribution Of the federal Offices in
New York. the Free Press proceeds to comment as fol-
lows:
.We present these Facts because we think mistaken
impression prevails 10 some extent in regard the dis
button OF federal patronage in New Yors Notwithsand

whsanding that the whole democracy OF country
peced and desired that the President elect should treat the
united democracy of New York an indivsbe party
Notwithstanding all this, the leaders Of the hard faction
are dissatisfied because the Presdsnt has absouey

harmony OF the party and subserye the public interests

These sound views are fully sustained BY the Bangor

Gle, which breaihes the spirit Of iroe democrat:
"DEMocRArIc uSrTY.-The Portland Argus takes the
general view Of the New York quarrel that we
presented to readers. The democracy of Maine should
have nothing 10 do win IT, except prod. by the lesson
which affords and firmly TO stand toget
er in defence OF their principles and the usages and
zation OF their party They should faces as n
against the contentious and acous every heresy and
against allowing any bitterness spring 10 trou

the democratic party united and preserving ts
~ Our way Is plain before US. We have new path
70 strike out bur only follow the good old beaten track
All ale tho friends OF the democratic party who embrace
and live ur 10 its principles, observe rules and comply
with lis requirements and all enemies who do no,
do these things"
The article in the Portland Argus referred 10 in the
above, is well worthy OF earnest attention II is as fol-
lows:
" WORD or cAurIos.-Paris may be France but New
York IS not the United States and Collector Bronson il moi
new iork The earth viii still move, in his absence
from Office and the government will not stop because Mr.
Hedhed has taken his place. We hope this New York
quarrel IS not to spread into other States After having
suffered for long period from local divisions il New
York insists upon period Of similar suffering she
must be permitted, we suppose have her way and
ENJOY amer her own style, the pleasure of being
bie But because misery likes company it doe. not fol-
low that company likes misery and beg that New
York will not expect all her become partners in
her wrelchedness When Sheridan asked by drunken
friend to help him from gutter he said he couldn't do
thaf, but he would get down and lie with him This how
ever was an excess OF friendship that could hardly be
peced from sober man and protest that ne other
state required to rush into dscod and
SIMPLY because New York has chosen TO cad the way
better sdom for every State be admonshed by New
York against taking the first discord and thus by
refusing 10 join in her difficulties, her motives
for continuing them. We earnestly hope hese difficult
ties will prove less serious than they threaten TO be
but whatever they are let them be kept much az
tle in the place of their origin"
