It has been the business Of the ay-
erage democratic editor and politi-
clan for years to denounce all fepub-
lican otiicc holders, and that denun-
citation has been without regard to
whether the officer was good or bad.
That average democratic editor or
politician has been all the time and
in almost every instance o candidate
for some one Of these official posi-
tons. Moreover, if Tildcn is elect
ed they will for the most part become
the Office holders of the country.
If Tildcn shall come in and these
democratic editors and politicians
should become the Federal officers Of
the country the republican press
ought to, tlcnouncc them all in Q
lump as thieves and scalawags, i:
they followed the pccedcnt of tn,
democratic press.
They will do nc such thing. They
will give credit TO decent and homes
democratic officers and only assai
the dishonest and corrupt. They vii
not be q party to the purely demo
cratic and thoroughly indecent ide'
of making all Office holding disrepu
table. In this respect they will illus
trate the difference between gentle
manly and discriminating republi
can criticism, and democratic black
Rnardism.
