The Wellington enterprise. [volume] (Wellington, Ohio) 1867-188?, 1884-08-06
POLITICAL PARAGRAPHS.

R&-Cleveland and Hendricks, the New
and the Old, Young Democracy and
Hunkerism, the Reform issue and the
"Fraud' issue. 1884 and 1876! How
will they mixP- Hartford Coarant.
B3- The English papers are for Cleve-
land and Hendricks. The English edi-
tors in New York agree with their
brethren across the water. The Times,
among other reasons, says the success
of the Democratic party would be
triumph for civil service reform!
Ba~ The seventeenth resolution Of
the platform adopted by the Indiana
Democracy demands the repeal of all
Federal laws which give the National
Government any control over National
elections. The plank shows just how
far the Democrats of Indiana favor
free vote and fair count.-M. Y. Irib-
Aile.
H6~A workingman writes to the Bos-
ton Journal: 81 am a workingman
(molder) and have voted the Demo
cratic ticket since 1876. But this year
/ shall vote for Blaine and Logan, and
with me thousands OF workingmen.
Take canvass of the shops and you
will find that of the men who voted for
Butler last year seven out of ten will
vote for Blaine next November"
Bdy- Mr. Hendricks had no backward
ness in saying what he thought Of Mr..
Tilden, but he is as touchy as girl
about any report that might imperil the
cordiality Of his relations with Mr..
Cleveland. Our Indiana statesman
evidently considers it greater honor
to play second fiddle TO a big nobody
than to small man with brains and a
career behind him. Mr.. Hendricks is
as tickled with his little bone as lad
with pair'of new rcd-topped boots
Indianapolis Journal
Bs5- The obvious lesson to be learned
from the Democratic Convention is tho
wholesale fear shared by the whole
Democratic party of the Republican
ticket and platform. There is no such
depreciation of Mr.. Blaine's strength
among some of the leaders as there
was at the outset, and the convention,
as whole, is in frame of mind well
represented as cautious. The voice Of
individual States Is of the same tenor.
Blaine is hard man to beat, they say.
It requires the best Democratic foot
forward. .-LoUeN Courier.
lsB~The tariff plank of the Democrat
ic party is brilliant fraud, q shining
mockery, as lifeless
As a painted ship
Upon painted ocean. CO.
It means whatever the reader wishes It.
II is like the SUIT of ready-made cloth
ing that is warranted, to be large
enough for any man and small enough
for any boy. It is essentially dishon-
est; it IS cowardly, and viii lead its au-
tAOrs and their party over the highway
0, contempt to crushing and deserved
defeat.-SpringfeI (lH.) Journal.
B15-The Democrats have done what
the Republicans deYoutly wished they
would do-nominated for the Presiden-
cy Grover Cleveland, OF New York A
man whose qualifications for the Presi-
dency are not known; man whose
worth is recognized only by friends of
monopolies; man without record for
ability extending beyond the Governor
ship of New York and the Office Of
Sheriff and Mayor of Buffalo; a man
whose career as Governor has made
himself obnoxious to workingmen and
the rank and file of labor voters.

BSrMr. Cleveland has no record in
National affairs; and he isn't going TO
have any. lie has never had any ex-
perience in legislation. He has never
been in Congress or in a State Legisla-
ture, or even in a Common Council.
Mr.. Blaine is one Of the best trained
statesmen in the country. lie has been
Legislator, Representative, Speaker,
Senator, Secretary OF State, and he will
be President. Workingmen want
skilled workman to do the Presidential
work; business men and all intelligent
men prefer to trust q job TO n man who
has been trained to the business. De
