Plain Talk which May Interest the


Tho New York World recently took the
Cincinnati Enquirer severely to task for
rreaching the old.fashioned Democratic
doctrine that Ito tho victors belong the
spoils," and advised it to bo moro cautious
in the future. On Friday last the Enquirer
comes back at the World red-hot, telling It,
in polite way, that 1t is playing the hypo.
critic; that IL believes just as the Enquirer
docs only 1t hasn't the manhood to say SO.
Tho Enquirer closes its reply to the World
with the following paragraph:
The World ought to say something perspicu.
GUS on the Clyil.Serylce question. Let ittake
position II will be willing to stand by after the
election OF Grover Cleveland TO the Presidency.
Let IL cay something which, as Democratic
paper, 1t Will be willing 70 havo the sturdy
Democrat paste In his hat and draw on 1t
about tho time the. appointments are made
take OF Its kidgloves and write now, what II
will no doubt be willing TO write after the elec.
tlon, that undera n Democratic Administration
the public places, high and low, should be
nlled with Democrats, with proper and pro-
portionate consideration OF such elements out
side OF the Democratic party as may render
direct assistance in electing n Democratic
President. Such distribution OF public IA
yors would accomplish the Intentions OF the
people in voting for change OF Administra'
accomplished in no other way. In tho event
OF tho election OF Blaine, every place directly
or remotely under his control Will bo occupied
by Republican. In tho event OF the election
OF Cleveland the direct opposite should govern.
This is plain, practical, common.senso poll.
tics In n Government In which parties are Ia.
evitable, and In which thore must be party
contest quadrennially. What Is the use Of
wasting words on n sham? Why not BIO open,
even, md direct? The people OF this country
understand the practical bearing OF politics,
and II is not worth the trouble 1t takes to trle
with them In ilno words
Now, we would like to see Hrper's
Weekly take the above extract and lay it
alongside tho Civil-Service plank of the
Democratic platform, and tell its readers
how they jibe together. And while the
Weekly is about it, suppose 1t tells tho pub
lie which policy II thinks has tho best
chance to be carried into practice If Cleve-
land should happen to be elected? And
will it also tell the public whether it really
expects any other policy to be pursued but
that marked out by its Cincinnati CO.
laborcr? AS the Weekly started out to play
Honest Indian in this campaign, will 1t
| honestly answer the above?

Keen the Ra.cals Ont,

If the people believe one.half of the stuff
that is told them by Cleveland's editors
ard speakers the entire framework of our
Government is honcycombed by theft,
fraud and peculation, perpetrated by Re-
publican officials and employees; that every
Department is rotten and corrupt beyond
conception that the sole study of the clerks
and heads of Bureaus and Departments is to
sec which one can steal the most and per-
pctrate tho most foul aud brazen faced
frauds; and that every official can go to the
Treasury and take just what he pleages of
money or bonds, and nobody to say to him
nay. All over the country you can hear
Democratic slangwbaDgors declaring that
ever since the Republicans came into power,
n quarter of century ago, they have sys-
tematically and continuously robbed the
people and hlched from the Treasury hun
dreds Of millions Of money.
Now, an ounce of fac, is worth a ton of
brazen, unfounded, untruthful assertions
and an appeal to the record gives the lie
direct and plumb to all these assertions.
Let us see what the facts are.
Let us compare the percentage of steal
inRs under Republican administrations with
the percentage of pecuations made under
Democratic administrations
Abraham Lincoln was the first Republi
can who ever sat in the Presidential chair.
His first term embraced the four years of
civil war, When tho receipts aud eXpendi-
lures Of tho Government ran up to hun
dreds of millions per annum-a condition
of affairs that is always characterized by
frauds and peculations.
Yet, during that mementous aud wasteful
four years tho populations only amounted
| to &c cents on each 81 900 received aud ex-
pended by the Treasury. Under Grant
they only reached "a cents on each $1,000
under Hayes they were only three cents ou
each ten thousand dollars, and under Chester
A. Arthur they only cnmo up to eighteen
cents on each one hundred thousand dollars
Now, turn to tho other sdo of this pic,
tuIe.
Under General Jackson the percentage
of stealings on each $1,000 amounted to 81
cents under Van Buren, TO $l1,sl on thu
| 81 coo to Sl,0S under Polk and under
Buchanan, the last Democratic President
the stealings amounted to 1881 on oaet
| $1,000.
These. facts should settle tho question for
ever as to Which party is the most trust
worthy when in power, and should shut th'
mouths of he slanderous demagogues whc
are GllDg tho air with their foul calum
nies in regard to the Republican party
They triumphahtly vindicato the Republi
can party from every charge of fraud an(
theft brought against it.
We venture the assertion that if the facts
could be got at they would show that tht
Government is now more honestly admin
istered than our railroads, our banks, oui

that his large estates in Florida demanded

OVER THE SUMMER SEA. BY JOHN HARRt-
SON and MARGARET COMPTON. John Lowell
& Co., New York.
without doubt this Is one of the most origl-
nal and captivating books of the season. II is
sparkling comedy IN verse, the scene being
on board an ocean steamship, and the vivid
truthfulness OF the sketch VIII be recognized
and appreciated by oil who have made the
trip TO Europe. Agreeable variety is managed
by the Introduction OF several outrageously
comic yarns spun by the captain; for an
ocean captains trade is not 80 much to run
his vessel as to entertain the ladies' and pre-
eide with grace at dinner. We heartily COM
mend tho book to all those who enjoy reflned
wilt and good laugh.
