The st. Paul Pioneer Press, the
great republican newspaper of the
northwest, thus commends General
Bragg for his vigorous treatment
of the Tammanyites in the dem
ocratic national convention:
The democratic convention has put one
thing on record for which the entire nation,
republicans as well as democrats, may join in
giving it deserved praise. 1t has booted that
eminent patriot and high minded hoodlum,
John Kelly, out of its doors, and energetcally
sufocated the unwashed mob that swarms at
his most ilustriousy dirty heels. =
Gen. Bragg of Wisconsin, gave them all the
grape in his cassons, and there has not been
made in Chicago the city that names our
presidents a speech the country will more
heartily echo than his. The power of Tammany
Hall in New York City has risen largely from
its claim TO represent 1.-The workingman," i'll
land where nobody eats bread without labor.
But, said Gen. Bragg: Labor is not represented
III political convention by the soft hand of
the political trlCkster, no matter where you
find him. The men who follow conventions
aud talk about the rights of labor are the Swiss
contingent who place their tents wherever the
prospect of profit is greatest" No New Yorker
born could have described Tammany Hall
heeler more to the life than that! And that
il has been said by son of the northwest.
to him, for that much of honest speech, New
York, as well as the entire country. may
give thanks for the solid, contemptuous
truth. face administered, TO the pestilent
and putrid mob that calls itself Tam
many Hall. Whatever may be the effect
pro or con, upon the prospects of Grover
Cleveland he can come no nearer to an election
in the hearts of clean men than in the salts
faction that the sound of his name drove
Tammany out of Chicago.

THAT FIVE-cENT FARE BILL.

Despondent republicans who i'm
agined that they saw a faint ray OF
hope for the triumph of their candi-
date in the fact that Gov. Cleveland,
the democratic nominee, had vetoed
the Five-Cent Fare bill passed by
the New York legislature, there
by, as they foolishly claimed, prov
ing himself an enemy to the work
ingmen, have had that single ray of
hope rudely dispelled. The New
York Times, the leading republican
newspaper Of the country, under the
heading of can Absurd Cry"
says:
Even the most thick headed of the Tarnmany
demagogues who are opposing Mr. Cleveland
know very well that democratic workingmen
will pay no attention to the clumsy indictment
they have drawn up against him; and the more
intelligent of his opponents merely confess the
emptiness and insincerity of their opposition by
the use they make of the charge that by his
action on the Five-Cent Fare bill, the Street Car
Drivers bill, and the Mechanics Lien bill, Gov
Cleveland showed himself to be Indifferent to
the welfare of the working classes. The charge
is stupid, silly and baseless A tive-cent fare
law would benefit fifty bankers where it would
benefit one nottingham. 1t would be law for
the benefit of Wall street men, for members of the
Produce Exchange, for comfortable merchants
who go up town at 8 O'Clock, for theatre-goers
and pleasure seekers of all kinds who use the
roads at night. During the hours when the
roads are chiefly patronized by workingmen and
working women and girls the fare is already five
cents The Mechanics Lien bill reached the
Governor in such shape that in signing it he
would have conferred benefit on contractors
builders and hardware dealers rather than upon
mechanics, and the bill reducing the working
hours of car-drivers and conductors would have
reduced their wages in the same proportion.
Would that have tended to "alleviate the con-
dtion of the masses?"

The Milwaukee Daily Journal OF
Monday republished from the
Milwaukee Sentinel the testimony
taken by Governor Rusk regarding
the Management of the northern
hospital for the insane, which The
Journal claims convicts Gov. Rusk
of false evidence to save his admin
istration from the shame and dis
grace which might have been
averted by the truth. The testimo-
ny appears to be very damaging;
and if, as stated by The Journal,
uov. Rusk declared that it must
not get out, because it would
hurt the party" he is unworthy to
longer occupy the executive chair
of the state.

Partisan republicans commended
the democrats for having kicked
Kelly and his crowd out of the
democratic national convention, but
they stood with arms open to re-
ceive them into their habitations,
They were sure that with their
assistance they could carry New
York for Blaine. But bad as were
the Tammany men, they are hardly
prepared to join party with no
better record than that of the re-
publican party. The sure defeat
of the present so-called republican
party is known and read OF ali
men, and we do not wonder that
Mr.. Kelly and his followers are
careful to have made it known to
the world that they intend to have
nothing to do with it in its oppo-
sition to Cleveland.

The republicans knew that they
had lost the German vote, that they
had offended the prohibitionists, and
that the Irish vote is democratic.
They felt sure however that the
rammany democrats would help
them out i'll New York, but the Tam
many men caused it to be wired to
the country at once that they were
solid for Cleveland and reform and
no republicans need apply to them
for assistance. Republicans are still
sure that they will elect their man,
but it takes person with a good
mathematical head on him to figure
out where their votes are to come
from.

Democrats appear to have a
keener appreciation of the pictures
in Harper's Weekly since the pen
Gil of Mast has been at work portray
ing the finer qualities of the Plumed
Knight, and republicans seem to
have lost interest in them altogether,
Evidently it makes a vast difference
whose candidate is cartooned. Says
the Teller, of Lancater:
Mr.. T. N. Barber got of sharp little drive
at the school meeting on the Harper illustration,
Mr.. Street was talking and in his remarks said
there was progress in school books as well as in
other things, The later books had better illus
trations. Any one would notice for instance that
the pictures in Harper and other magazines
were much finer than some yearsago. Yes said
Mr.. B. there is great improvement in the
pictures in Hsrper-can't say about the others"
The point with its political bearing was readily
taken in and enjoyed by Republicans as well as
Democrats.

A CONTRAST.

The political methods employed
by boss Kelly, of New York, and
Boss Keyes, OF Wisconsin, are iden-
teal, but the treatment of these
bosses by the respective parties to
which they belong has been widely
different. Kelly was jumped upon
in the Democratic national conven-
ton in a manner that he and his
followers win not soon forget. He
was told that the democratic party
could get along very well without
his assistance, that his principles
were repugnant to pure democracy,
and that if he withdrew from the
party it would be for the party's
good. How different the case with
Keyes in the republican convention?
He was restored to his old time power
and prestige as boss of the Wiscon-
sin republicans. Keyes is himself
again. Blaine's campaign in this
state is to be conducted by and
through him, and SO far as dealing
out the rewards and punishments
for political services are concerned
he is almighty. The contrast be-
tween the action of the two national
conventions in the treatment OF
political bosses, and in other partic-
ulars, is SO striking as to leave no
doubt in the minds of the indepen-
dent voters as to which party they
should give their support.

Hon. Burr W. Jones returned
home from Washington last week,
and is being congratulated by his
friends on the record which he has
made as an able, faithful and pains
taking representative. On all hands
republicans can be heard expressing
determination to vote to return
Mr.. Jones to congress; and we hope
that they will not forget themselves
in the excitement of q heated cam
paign, and fail to carry out their
good intention. Mr.. Jones deserves
the. endorsement that reelection
would give him, and there is not
even a possibility that the oppo-
sition will nominate a man who
would make as good congress
man.

sirable or practicable"
