When Mr.. Heister Clymer declared that

the history Of his own party. which unfor-
tunafely is . part of the history Of this
country. That history shows that. in addi-
ton to the Fort Smelling land swindles, in

that Secretary of the Navy Toncey dis
persed the navy in every ocean; that SEQ
rotary of the Treasury Cobb deliberately
did what he could to ruin the public credit,
and that, in short, all of the Democratic
leaders then in highest power conspired in
the interest of 1.-THE Democracy" to make .

conspiracy, preceded ~ it was by the bold
est thefts of millions of money from the

declaration may have sounded very fine,
but it was simply . rhetorical fiction. II
he had told the truth he would have said
that the most revolving spectacle in our his

not only condoned the thefts to which we
allude, but made political saints of the men
who participated in the conspiracy which
followed them. And he might have added
that while tho Democratic motto ID and has
