Down With SIanderl
From the AIbany EvenIng Jonrn.

From the Albany Evening journal
To all who are anxious to learn the
truth about the character Of James G.
Blaine, we commend careful perusal
of the article upon that subject which
we print today Wehave not offered
one syllable of the documentary evil
dence, we there present, that does not
come from a responsible source.
There exists a great mass of further
evidence. more or less definite, which
bears out our conclusion, but which
the limits Of time and space exclude.
The question we consider is this Are
certain expressions contained in the
so-called "Mulligan letters" consistent
with the theory that Mr.. Blaine is an
honest man
The letters can not properly be con
sidered-as they usually are-apart
from the facts to watch they refer. In
the light of such an examination, they
contain no evidence that Mr.. Blaine
ever made an improper use OF ms
power, as speaker, to promote the in
terests Of private corporation, with
a view to his own pecunlary advan-
tage. mThey fail to show that he ever
minated his willingness to perform
such service in the future, in r3turn
for benefits received. There is no ev-
idence in these letters to sustain the
charge that he ever sold railroad bonds
either directly or indirectly to any
railroad corporation, or at any profit
whatever to himself Ia eur opinion.
there is not a line III these letters
which might not have been written
by an honest man.
We find that in the letters where he
refers TO his favorable ruling there IS
absolutely no evidence of corrupt
motive. Candor, however, requires
us to state that in our opinion the al
lusion TO his ruling was violation of
correct taste. 1t betrayed anxiety on
the part Of Mr.. Blaine TO strengthen
friendly relations with another,
through reference TO this con
fessedlY accide al circumstance
But that IS the worst that can be
said. We ask honorable business
men-wo ask conscientious accusers
Of Mr. Blaine who have been in bust
ness or public life, TO read these two
letters Of October candidly and with
care, and then say whether in the
long course Of their experience they
have not been guilty Of acts or words
which are equally open to criticisml
Collect your private correspondence
and see if there are not many things
in it which you should be sorry TO see
in print over your own name. The
very fact that Blaine used these ex-
pressious. SO liable to misconstructlon,
indicates that he is not one who feels
it necessary to exercise the caution
which a rascal with evil intentions
al WAYS does when he writes.
That mere doubts AID destinations
should ever be allowed to destroy the
reputation of an honorable public
servant is monstrous possibility to

POLITICAL.
4 GENUINE INDEPENDENT. y
Chicago Journal.


Mr.. Edwin d. Mead, the well-known
Boston radical lecturer and writer, and
a real independent in politics, has
furnished a valuable contribution to
thu literature of the campaign. He
has published an argument of consid-
cradle length and of great force to
show that James G.. Blaine is entitled
to the votes of the genuinely patriotic
and the intelligently independent
thinkers in politics, and that no mis-
take can be SO great as for mdepend-
entS to aid directly or indirectly the
return of the bad elements of the
democratic party TO power. Mr. Mead
is pleasantly remembered in Chicago,
where he was a visitor some months
since, and delivered several lectures
on one of his favorite subjects. He is
a graceful speaker and a profound
thinker, and is a favorable represen-
tatiye of the advanced liberalism of
the country. lie was entertained at
Chicago as the guest Of a number of
our citizens of the first responsibility
and culture, who gave a reception ia
his honor
Mr. Mead makes strong point at
the commencement of his argument
by showing that the "bolters" have
preferred no definite charges against
Mr. Blaine. They give nothing in
the form of reasons why their sinister
advice should be adopted by sincere
and thoughtful republicans. Colonel
Goldman, who presided over the meet
ing of Boston boilers, candidly admit
ted that they could not take such
step as that before them without
frankly stating the reason why.
But, says Mr. Mead, he did not
give us any reason why. The Even
ing Post, the Times and the Adver-
tiser have not given any reasons why"
This is the actual truth. None of the
republican politicians or newspapers
who oppose Mr. Blaine have given the
form of a reason why others should
oppose him, or why they oppose him
themselves.
Mr.. Mead declares that the answer
of Mr.. William Walter Phelps to the
charge of legislative jobbery which is
brought against Mr.. Blsine is salts
factory and conclusive. He then de-
fines the reasons why Independent re-
publicans should cast their votes for
the republican ticket. These reasons
are, in brief. as follows.
/. The republican party is not de-
terlorating; but it is a better, purer
soberer party, and is actuated by
higher purposes in 1884 than it was in
1880. 1t was a better party in 1880
than it was in 1876. 1t was a better
party 1876 than in 1872. II is pro
gressive, and is prosecuting the work
of reform within itself.
9. The nomination of Blaine and
Logan was procured without injustice
or fraud. They were the actual choice
of majority of the republican IA
tional convention, as they were of
the mass of republican voters.
3. Mr.. Blaines ability and states
manship are unquestioued. lie IS 3
fit man in every way for the office.
4. This portion of the argument is
an arraigument of the boilers, quot
ing their own declarations in the past
against themselves.
The pamphlet IS an excellent repub-
lic1n text book, and we shall have &C
casion TO refer TO its pages again.

which no fair-minded man shoul2 al.
low himself to contribute. If the
character of public men is to be at
the mercy of baseless accusations,
men who value their personal reputa-
ton and comfort viii shrink frola
eneountering the perjls of a public
career. THIS is precisely what suits
dishonest men. IC merciless critics
make politics so dangerous that men
