We submit the questions,-Is Capt.
Blackman Il safe party leader: Is his
legislative record such as requires no
explanation or defense: We urge moth
ing upon this latter point, more than
the general thought above suggested;
but say, generally, although quite posi-
lively, that it will not do for the Dem
ocrats to enter the next campaign UNI
der the leadership of II man whose
record needs any defense whatever. 1t
ought to be its own protector, SO that
the party may leave that without pro-
lection, and proceed to the vigorous
and hard task Of beating down the cne-
my. All of our time should be given
to attack and to aggressive movements.
AS one Of those who expect to be in the
forefront and who will be required to
do hard fighting, we have right to
demand and do demand of the party:
not to give us, for leaders, men we VIII
have to apologize for, bolster up, or
carry upon our back, while the enemy
arc hurting missiles at us upon every
side. It docs not matter to rs whether
he is of a long line of noble ancestry,
or fresh from the humber walks of life;
whether he passed through Il university,
or simply through an old log school
house whether he can speak f'ucntly,
or stammcrs badly; isyoung, or is old ;
II bright sorrcl, or a deep bay; let hin.
be Il clcar-headcd, intlcxible, incorrupt-
iblc, industrious friend of the people, a
true man, of some experience in public
affairs, and we shall be content With
the choice.
