National Republican. (Washington City (D.C.)) 1872-1888, 1879-07-18

NOTWITHSTANDING the Democrats are
holding up their pure hands and rolling up
their watery eyes in holy horror that any
body connected with the Administration
should contribute voluntarily to the Re-
publican cause it tappeas that they are doing
something in that line themselves The
Washington correspondent of the Boston
Journal, who always understands and has
the means of knowing what he is talking
about, says that the Democratic Congress
sional Campaign Committee is using large
part of the force of clerks and laborers oil
the House of Representatives and Senate
for doing campaign work. Documents are
being folded with Government paper and
paste, and the comniittee-rooms are lighted
with Government gas. The Republican
Committee, on the contrary, have their own
building and furnish their own material
and help. That is the difference. The
Democrats always raise the cry of stop
thief" when they have Il little job of steal
ing of their own ON hand.

1T was Associate Justice FIELD who rem
dered the recent decision out in California
against the Chinese queue-cutting ordi-
nance, on the ground that it is in conflict
with the fourteenth amendment. Now,
Justice FIELD is Democrat and a promi-
nent candidate for the Presidential nomina-
ton by that party next year. 1t, therefore,
appears to us that this friendly act, if such
it may be called to the Chinese, will serve
us a stand OFF, so to speak, to President
HAYES veto of the anti Chinese bill. We
do not see, however, how either the Presi-
dent or the Judge could have acted diff
ferently.
