"KERP THE RAsCALs OUT.,

'KERP THE RASCALS OUT.'
 The New York Suns Democratic war cry, Turn the rascals ous," is not great success thus far. Since it vas first promulgated several things have happened to show how inappropriate a war cry 1t Is for the Demo- crats to use. Two of these things have happened in New York, where they could not fail to come to the notice of the rascal. Hating and vociferous Sun.
 k The Democratic mayor of Albany has just resigned to prevent trial that would have exposed the gross frauds by which the Demo crats seated him. The Democrats in New York changed the new Capitol commission solely, as they claimed, in the in- terest of economy and expedition in the building operations, but the partisan trustees have been removing the janitors and other employees and filling their places with hungry Democrats. For keeper of the State House James A. Fahy was appointed, and he is de- scribed as 'not only an Alderman, but also a cock-fghter." Fahy had been in office but short time before he attempted to interfere, in behalf of some of his constituents, with the regular course of police proceedings in which they were interested. Upon Captain Hagadorn's failing to acknowledge his author ity, Fahy became very violent and profane, and knocked the Captain down. When ar raigned in court, he repeatedly interrupted the reading of the complaint by the justice with the remark, That's lie;' and as a final act of hardihood he publishes in the news papers card saying he has done just right.
 Evidently the rascals are not all in the Republican party, even in the virtuously Democratic State of New York. The Suns war cry will hardly do. If it should be used another war cry will be raised against it, and this, as the Boston Herald forcibly puts it, will be, "Keep the rascals out.'' Says the Herald: How would the Democratic leaders enjoy campaign on this line? The Democratic party is the party of Swartout and Tweed. 'tKeep the rascals out" The last Democratic cabinet and the last Demo- cratic collector at New York stole more than all their successors for twenty years. s'Keep the rascals out" The Democratic State of Tennessee has had three defaulting treas urers in succession. 'tKeep the raseals out" A full proportion of the votes cast in con- gress for the river and harbor jobs have been Democratic. keep the rascals out.' Eight of the jury that acquitted the Star route thieves were Democrats. keep the rascals out" The Union league club of Chicago has just discovered incon- testible proof that the worst kind of ballot box stuffng was resorted to to re-elect the Democratic mayer, Harrison, who has nulh- fled law of the legislature to pay his debt to the rummies and criminals who supported him. Keep the rascais out. Eiecticns in more than half the southern States have been turned into farces. and the rights of majori- ties openly trampled under foot to insure Democratic ascendency. O, Keep the ras- calls out"
 It is clear that the Democrats must have some other war cry than that suggested by the Sun. If they use this they will have difficulty in persuading the people that the rascals who want to get in are any better than the rascals they seek to turn out
