with the evidence before them on

personally associated with the most
gigantic railroad corruption ever

further fact OF his betrayal Of the

objection to Payne is not that he is a

Parallels Of History that Challenge
Comparison.

During the progress OF the civil war
in this country, VIM. NJ. Tweed, a
noted democratic politician OF New
York city was employing his time
and devoting his opportunities to
the unholy work OF despoiling the
government which had entrusted
him with the duties and sresponsi-
bilities Of official trust, and robbing
its people OF moneys contributed
through IN onerous system OF tax
alton. His varied criminal end cor
rupt acts OF administration were full
~ exposed by the New York Times,
a republican paper OF that city. This
exposure OF a long list Of villanies,
hitherto unparalleled in American
history should have restrained the
democracy of New York from en-
dorsing Tweed, but unfortunately
for its future, this exposure only in
spired the party to make an earnest
and unqualified endorsement OF
Tweed by an overwhelming and al
most unanimous election to the state
Senate from New York. This equiv
Deal action OF the party did not re-
flute the charges specifically made
against Tweed by the Times; it did
not purge him OF crime; it did not
purify that unclcan statesman nor
elevate the party which had in at
tempting his vindication simply en-
dorsed and shared his crimes.
During the same eyentful and
critical period in American history,
VIM. b. Allison, n republican in Con-
gress from the state OF Iowa. was
plotting with the enemies OF the re-
public, in arms against it, to pre-
vent the contlscation OF their proper
