SPIRIT OF THE GERMAN PRESS.

Relative to the contribution by officers to the
campaign fund, and the comments made On this
subject by the Democratic press, the Milwaukee
Free Frysse says: IS II there was any compulsion
practiced in this matter. all that Democratic
hoxlns might have some sense; but in fact it Is
nothing else but tho shedding OF crocodi;e's tears
and political hypocrisy. The Democrats simply
criticise this measure In order to make political
capital. They condemn in their opponents what
they are practicing themselves. Not alone that;
the old campaign motto, To the victDrs belong the
spolls,' IS good Democratic doctrine per 50; even
the present system, to grease and keep the po-,
litical machine In working order, is of Demo-
cratic Invention and origin. Ask any Demo-
cratic Alderman or other officer how much for
years he had to contribute towards defrny1nS
Democratic elecuoneering expenses, aud you
will hear wonderful tale. Is there sensible
1nan In the country who doubts Tor moment
that if the Democrats should come into posses
sion of the Federal manger they would not be
true to the Democratic doctrines-dtv1de the
spoils and from year to year contribute
towards the campaign-fuud in order to
keep up the business and to maintain
themselves IN power2 They only attempt to
pull the wool over the eyes OF the people, lha+
