Tho sudden and surprising defent Of the

similar succession Of rovcrses before It will
overcome tho Turks, hut thoro is on the other
hand a possibility Of succoss which, 1t is
very evident, the 1luss'ans are now strnining

OF caylling at President HAYEs' efforts to re-

by creating tho Impression that President
HAYES ia not doing oil that might be done, to

compltshed under tho auspices Of the DEM

spicuous fact In American political history
that 1t WAS tho Democratic party which
originated aud frat applied tho vicious theory
thas tile spoila belong to tho victors, aud
that 1t WIS under succesoion Of Democratic
Presidents that this practice Of uxing tho
official patronage Of the country for party
reward" took 80 strong hold upon politics
as to become tho most glazing nblho and
rcan.lal Of our Government.

brings out this fact polnted'y by historical
comparison. During tue forty years pre-
cecaing JAcKsos'u Inauguration thero had

tho most Of Which wero for cause, while An
DREW JACKSON removed $50 officials during
tho first year, and removed aud appointed

Ia sufficient warrant for tho assertion that
JACKSON iuauguratcd the apoils-systena, md
