THE Hon. Jacob D. Cox asked the Demos
Gratis in his speech at Toledo, why they are
still together as a party: My Democratic
friends, why Is your organization alive to-
day? Think of it for one moment. 1t is sim
ply for the purpose of harping year by year
at what the Republican:party does? Is your
organization really alive to-day because you
have any such defined, well-considered ideas
with regard to the civil service of the coun-
try, with regard to the finances of the coun-
try, with regard to the foreign or domestic
policy of the country, that you can put your
hand upon it and say, ''We are an organiza-
tlon because we want to carry out these
ideas" No, you know Ethat is not fact.
You know that your organization is bound
together by its old "reminiscences and associa-
tions; that while you delight to find flaws in
the armor of the Republicans, yet it is not
for these criticisms that your party has ex-
listed. Look into your own hearts and ask
yourselves, "Why are we party?" and !
think that you will agree with me at once
that it is not because you believe in Mr.. Til.
denis ideas or Mr.. Hendricks ideas, of fl.
nance; it is not because you are on this prop.
osition, or on that, of the double-sided plat
forms which parties make, either in the state
or in the nation. 1t is simply because tht
memory of old associations, dating back tc
Andrew Jackson himself, has put you in th,
habit of acting together. The memory o
the days when the struggle was fierce keep
you still in sympathy with each other.

The betrayal of the hard money principle
by Mr.. Tilden sinks into utter insigniicance

to be utterly unscrupulous as to the means
which he employs to accomplish his end.

The argus has come out with its usual
array of figures just before election trying
this time to charge Mr.. Reed with
having obtained from the state money
that did not belong to him. Such charges
are commonly kept for the heated days just
before the campaign closes. Any man of
common sense knows that no bill IS paid by
the state except upon the approval of the Ex-
ecutive Council. And Mr.. Reed never re-
ceived or could receive single dollar which
was not voted him by the Governor and
Council after investigation in open session.
Things have come to pretty pass when a
citizen cannot present bill to the state,
have it openly audited and paid without
some snesking Democratic newspaper charg-
ing him with dishonesty for base partisan
purposes,

The Democrats would have liked to prove
that Gov. Hayes had done everything wicked /;
falling in that, they are trying to show that
he never did anything good or bad. AS to
this, the Cincinnati Commercial says: sit is
complained of Hayes that he is "a negative
man. From 1861 to 1866 it is our impression
that he was tolerably positive person. 1t
was Sam Tilden who was the negative man
then. He was, as Bob Ingersoll says, "a de-
murrer', and assented to nothing but the
peace-and surrender resolutions of the Chca.

uated to dissenting to everything that even
then, if we take Manton Marbles word for
it, he demurred to that privately. He is a
success as demurrer"
