What's In q Nssglae.

The old rebel democracy, that long ago
attempted suicide IS party, and that
would now have been dead and beyond
rcsurrec ion, but for a few corrupt renc-
gadcs from the Republican ranks, is in
the political field again, competing for
positions Of honor and trust, with moth
ing in the world to recommend them to-
public favor, except the new name which,
they have chosen OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.
What impudence. Its the very party.
and the only party, which has sought to
make the poor, subject to the dictation Of
the rich,-to make the humble laborer
support the aristocratic, in elegance and
leisure, Ito foster special privileges,
caste and snobbery Ito create . monopo
" of labor. by holding and owning slaves
"a monopoly Of capital, BY massing il
into corporations monopoly OF
government, by making suffrage contin-
gent upon property qualifications, and
yctthey call themselves ANTI -monopo-
lists. We're the parties equally respect
able, the pretcnsions Of the Democrats
would constitute y parallel to that IA
NOUS case, wherein the livery Of heaven
was stolen, and worn in the service Of the
Devil, tor the purpose of deceiving the
virtuous and the plrc. Antinonopoly is
used By the Democrats as a catch-word.
Applied to their creed, tits . Haunting
lie; used as q symbol Of their practices,
# is giittering chcat. The professional
sllop-lifter, with stolen goods in his
hands, never raa through the streets
shoating ''stop thief'' with more dctermi-
nation to deceive the pursuing crowd,
and to trwart retributive Justice, than
does die Democratic party Of today,
shout -Antimonopoly." It IS like the
cry Of the knocking bird, attempting to
ape the melody Of the lark. Ny sheep
