Tne letter of Mr.. Tilden Ia the lro-
quois club, Chicago, which is reprinted
In another column, is worthy of more
than the passing notice usually accorded
10 similar utterances. The unique posi-
tlon occupied by the Gramercy Park
sage at the present time in
oeing The centre of 80 many
conilictlng rumors concerning his health
and presidential aspirations, lends addi.
tional weight to his deliverances. The
letter Is lucid and strong arraignment
OF the Republican party for its sins of
omission and commission, and the gisC
OF 1t Is that the sole course for the DE.
mocracy to pursue is in the path OF gov
ernmental reform.
Mr. Tilden sagaciOusly declares that
no reform Of administration is posi-
siple 30 long as the government is di-
rected by party which is under the
dominion OF false doctrines and ami.
mated by enormous pecuniary interests
IN the perpetuation Of existing abuses.
The lirst effectual step In the reform of
our government must be "a Fundamental,
change IN the policy of the administra.
tion." This is in truth the gross and score
OF the whole situation. Men will differ
In their views as TO the necessity and
extent OF tariff reduction, as they will
on their religious opinions. All agree
substantially in the general considera..
tion OF tariff doctrines, but in the ar.
rangement OF the details comes dlsa .
greement aud disunion. On the broad
question OF governmental reform there
can be no differences in the ranks and
the Democratic army as one man must
march TO victory.
The veteran statesman freely admits
that he can no longer aspire TO be one of
