How ARE we Governed

The papers within a few DAYS have contained
two curious announcements for free country
One stated that the Government officers in
Eastern CITY had seized all the locomotive engines
in a machine shop for Government use. The
other. that General in peaceful W estern city
had prohibited in his department the circulation
of u newspaper which he did not like. and which
is published in New ork city.
II the Government cannot procure engines for
service on Its railways it must of course seize
them by force and pay for them at leisure But
have We reached that pointl 1t would surely
better comport with the principles of free Gov
eminent like ours 10 paw any price tor the manu-
facture or purchase of an article from a citizen.
rather than to seize it by an arbitrary force.
There are machine shops in the country where
the Government could have plenty of engines
built, and if the time is pressing. then the fault
lies in not having previously provided tor the
emergency.
The other case presents darker aspect The
suspension Of a newspaper Is the exercise of the
highest power of sovereignty 1t is the absolute
will OF the government opposed TO the freedom of
popular discussion That freedom NAV De exer-

circulation of a newspaper is proceeding I'M

eThe Conspiracy"

The readers OF the Republican papers, If the
fact was not specifically announced. are well adj
vised as TO the approach of ward. a township.
a city. or state election Just on the eve Of one
of these events. the Administration abolition
prints are filled. brmfull with all sort of charges
about knights Of the Golden Circle" secret
Democratic political organizations armed to the
teeth. ready for treason, stratagems and spells,
and all that sort Of stuff Since the inauguration
of the present dominant political party into power.
these charges have been rung against the De-
mocracy in every conceivable shape. upon the
eve OF every election, no matter how insignificant
It's character.
To use the language Of Republican papers and
Republican orators, the nation Is engaged III
terrific struggle for its Iife-for its preservation.
A civil war is raging. of gigantic proportions
in numbers aud intensity far exceeding any
which has occurred in tbs worlds history-yet
the party in power would be less chagrined over
= decided repulse or defeat Of our armies in the
field, than the loss of some insignificant town
ship election. No man with grain of percept
ion or common sense, fail to see that such IS
the fact. The nation is involved in partlzan
war-a war for the supremacy and perPetuation
of political power in the hands OF those who have
the present control of the government-in other
words. To make ruling dynasty OF the repre-
sentatives OF the Republican party The whole
policy of the Administration is shaped
TO that end. The war has been and Is prosecuted
for that object Party not patriotism-not the
welfare of the nation-has been the absorbing
consideration with those who have the direction
of public affairs We have only to refer to the
teachings of the representative men and the rep
resentative press OF the Republican party to
demonstrate most conclusively that such Is the
fact. When the glory. the honor aud the welfare
of the nation are made subordinate to the triumph
Of p,rty-to the perpetuation OF party rule
anarchy or despotism certain to be the result
Such is history; and human nature Is the same
now as il ever has been.
To maintain civil and religious liberty-all
that gives value to Republican institutions is the
sole object of the Democratic party. From the
beginning il has contended for the rights of man
against arbitrary power. Ii has no other pur-
pose now Ii believes in the capacity OF man for
self government-that all just Governments de-
rive their power from the consent OF the gov
erped For maintaining these properly the so
called Republican or Union partisans charge the
Democracy with completely against the Govern
ment-that is 1.-The conspiracy" which the central
organ of the Republican party charged upon the
-. n tn in
tain the rights of men is crime. every Demo-
Graf, every true man. will be willing to be re
garded as a criminal.
