10 its prospectus or 1881 tho GLoBE-DEM
ocRET announced with pride and satisfaction
the election of Gen. Garfield and the belief
that his administration would be 80 wisely
counseled and SO well conducted that it would
give new lease oil power to the party under
wnich the nation had grown free, strong and
prosperous. The vile hand OF an assassin
has since stricken down the good and gifted
man who, while We wrote a year ago stood on
the threshold of the Presidential office, in the
prime and viGor Of manhood, with future
1ull OF honorable promise to himself and his
country. Inc high trust which the people
had reposed in him was dropped by the palsi-
ed hand OF death when but a small part of tha
great work upon which he had entered had
been accomplished. But to quote his own
American tragedies was enacted, nearly seven
teen years ago. "God reigns, and the Cove, q.
ment at Washington still lives.'
The mantle which was voted to James A.
Arthur Under the Constitution of the United
States, and there is every reason to believe
that be will worthily wear 1t. He was almost
the unanimous choice of the Chicago Convex
ton for Vice President, and his name and e.
forts contributed perhaps more than else to
The success Of the Republican ticket in the
Safe of New York. He is a man of broad
views. fully Informed on all public questions,
and he enters upon the duties OF his office
determined 10 discharge them honestly and
consctentiously. The GLoBE-DEMoCRAT pledg-
es him 1t cordial support in every good word
and work for the country and for the Repub-
his prudent and skillful leadership tho evil
spirit of faction will disappear from the ranks
of the party, and that unity and harmony will
prevail In all its counsels. This end once Sc
cnred there can be no doubt of future success.
4 large majority of the people OF this country
are Republicans in sentiment and sympathy,
and nothing but internal discord can imperil

Tue GLOBE-DEMOCRAT has no new declara-
ton. of principles to announce. 1t can fairly
ask judgment as to the future from the record
of the past 1t stands firmly by the platform
In the equal rights of all men in law and poll
tics; Q sound currency with an honest silver
dollar for part OF 1t; q we'll regulated tariff,
giving protection without encouraging mo-
nopoly, and q system Of popular educBtion so
liberal that ignorance and illiteracy shall be
inexcusable. These are the main questions
upon which the two great parties are now
dlvidsd-the Democrats oppose and the Repub-
licans affirm as to each OF the propositions we
have named.
While fully approaching the magnitude of
national issues, the GLOBE DEMOCRAT will not
be unmindful of the Importance OF questions
which affect the West, aud especially he State
OF Missouri. Among these is immigration.
We shall do all we possibly can to encourage
Europeans seekings home on this side OF the
Atlantic to investigate the claims OF this great

great mineral resources. Everything is good
here except political domination. Bourbon
Democracy is the foe Of immigration in Mis-
souri,, as it always has been In Kentucky and
in other States. A Republican victory in the
State would do more to encourage the best
class OF immigrants TO come within our bort-
ers than can be accomplished in any other
way or through any other agency. Inc
heaven is working, and we have faith In its
success within q few years. 10 the meantime
we shall not forget that while Republicanism
Is q help to immigration, immigration is also
q help 10 Repubicanism. Inc thrifty farmers
of the Eastern States who move West in pur-
suit of more land to meet the necessities of q
growing family afe not Bourbon Democrats;
and the industrious foreigners who come here
for homes and fields will soon learn to choose
rightly between the two parties.
