DRAWING ON THE BLACK CAP.

In our telegraphic columns will
be found quite an amount of Guiteau
Interchangeable enough for even
the day and the trial, and his life
was hardly worth the expense of re-
lating the circumstances of his
death. Had the boosted "civil SER
vice reform" of Republicans been
put into effect, Guiteau would have
not felt it his duty to take the life of
President Garfield. AS it was, he
felt that his political service to Mr..
Garfield deserved its reward,
and it has been said the poor
devil had promises to that
effect. Becoming convinced that
the president had played him false,
he avenged himself. thus forcibly
demonstrating the Republican idea
that place is the ultimatum OF
all Republicans. So Guiteau was
taught by his political associates.
among whom was Mr.. Garfield, and
when refused place by one to whom
he had given stalwart support, he
boldly presented his neck for the
hangman's moose and an ignominious
end. But a political death and q
political execution will not wipe
away the blot that palpably defaces
the Republican party. "Spoils" is
its watchword, and whenever the
civil service reform, that we have so
long heard of, becomes a reality the
Republican party will die for the
lack of nutrition. The poor wretch's
life was not worth a farthing,
but il was made so by
the same political agency that stole
a presidency, that used Conkling to
save the nominees and then repu-
dated him, that never fails to COM
pass any end, no matter how dark,
which will win. The purposes of the
Republican party have been dark.
One after one visiting statesman"
pass into utter darkness, and Gui-
teau leaps desperately after them.
After a while a great black pail
will be drawn over defunct politi-
cal carcass, and the thing that marks
its resting place will tell that in 1884
it made its last attempt to commit
fraud and to steal. The black cap
that was drawn over Guiteau's face
yesterday, is symbolical OF the end
that cometh for this political party
that has outraged public decency,
which has assassinated the popular
rights.
