No Republican WILL do.

Discussing the political situation, and look
ing forward TO the close of the present term
of President Grant and his successor, the
New York San says mo Republican
will do. 1t will not do to elect any Repub-
lican. Blaine or Schenck, Morton or Couk-
ling, would only keep in power the pres
cnt corrupt agencies that have gained the
entire and irrcvcrsiblc control of the Repub
lican party, and that are rapidly carrying the
country downward. They might desire re-
form but IL would he beyond their means.
And not only this, the election of either of
them would only perpetuatc that spirit of
defiance TO liberty and that disregard of hon
est government and ofpersonal rights which
the Republican party expressed in passing
the Poland and Frelnghuysen bill against
the freedom of the press. The only safety
lies in peaceful revolution which shall
smash the Republican machine, turn out Re-
publican ollice-holders and bring in new
men, new ideas, honest legislation and no
stealing. The Republican party has become
the foe of honesty, Of liberty and of the pub
lie veal 1t must he broken down.
