THE SILENCE OF THE REPUBLICAN
PRESS.

To THE EDITOR OF The NEW YORK
SUN-Sir: The unmlstakable silence
which the Republican newspapers
maintain about the facts, copied from
official records, inculpating their candi-
date for the presidency, %convicts them
OF a moral cowardice III base obse-
quiousness to party interests. which it
is painful to behold.
This IS the impression made upon one
who is neither a democrat nor a repub-
lican, and therefore may fairly assume
to be free from any party or other pre-
JUDGE.
1t is possible that the republican press
with a unanimity fatally ominous, are
prepared thus to oondone, nay, to cham
| pion. bribery and perJury-bribery de-
iiberately committed, and peri jury mean
ly resorted to. to escape the consequent
ces OF the first crime? Is it possible
| that hundreds OF thousands Of republi-
cans OF this country stand ready to
prostitute righteousness to party inter
est. and stain the records OF republican
ism with the exaltation of bribery and
periury? In view Of the record no
honest man can doubt what the truth is
Figures cannot lie, and the verdict OF II
republican committee. officially record
ed, gives them no chance TO lie. even /
they could. Is it not this willingness:
on the part OF the community to condont
crime that is responsible for crime?
Surely the safety OF nations rests upo'
the eternal principle OF truth and justice
and the people who elect to their chic
magistracy a man whose W champ
ons dare not open their mouths to de
fend him have no right 10 hope for tn
stability of their Government.

Treasurer Gates has scored a victory
over the Mastin Bank which confirms
the correctness of his account with that
institution. There has been a slight
difference of S1S7, 900 between the treas
urer and his chosen depository as to the
amount OF funds intrusted to the latter.
The circuit court at Warrensburg has
decided that the treasurer IS right,
which strengthens the current suspicion
that the bank will bear watching. IL
