How cnn ic be set aside? He seems
thus far to have captured most of the
delegates, and will probably 80 manip-
ulate matters 10 to defeat all
his opponents, horse foot and

Seymour with his orphan asylum and
New York riot record. The American
people will not take up this decrepit
and ancient fossil, with his bad record,
for young progressive, intellectual
athlete like Garfield. 1t is more than
likely that one of these two men will
lie nominated, i'm which case Garfield
will have an easy race. Should a
dark hOrsc-with record ~ clean and
white as Is possible of Democratic
politician, he selected, we have even
then no fears of Garfield success. The
Democracy has done nothing since
its ascendancy in Congress to gain the
affections Of the masses. 1t has done
everything to forfeit their respect and
confidence. A more powerful ar
raingment of Democracy cannot
be found than that contained in the
eighth clause of our platform, which
reads As follows:
We charge upon the Democratic
party the habitual sacrafice Of patriot
ism and Justice to , supreme and I'M
satiable lust for Office and patronage.
That to obtain possession Of the Ma
tiOnal and State governments, and
