THE free-trads Galveston News says:
"Let the impediments be thrown away,
and the fight be square one. Better to
dare all. sword in hand. fighting for a
principle, than to DO tripped by the
dangling scabbard while lodging the
foe." This has manly ring, too manly
for the Democratic party, party that
is welded to the tactics of covering up
its tracks, employing strategy, using its
words, promises and platforms to cover
up its real meaning and deceive the peo-
pie. If there is one grain of honesty in
the party it will make square fight
against the tariff this winter. 1t has
said protection is a curse that should be
destroyed, that they would fight the
hated thing when the chance came.
They now have the opportunity pd
while there are thousands of Democrats
who want the fight we believe the party
as party is too cOwardly to fulfill its
promises in this matter.

The Democratic party is active in en-
couraging new political organizations,
expecting them to draw from Repuli-
cans, calculating that the average DEM
ocrat will vote his party's directions il
to him it is all crow, and that the Repub-
lican is SO indepenpent that he forms
his own opinion and votes for that ticket
which best represents his views. All
this is complimentary to Republicans,
but, the best ticket in the field, with the
best principles, and the best man on the
continent to lead, will cause every true
Republican to feel that there is NO place
to 60 to, near SO good as to affiliate with
his own party.

In Ohio, Henry B. Payne, wealthy
man, a representative of the Standard
Oil Company, dangerous monopoly,
won in the senatorial contest over Geo.
II. PendletOn, whose brains, statesman
ship, and interest in civil service reform
went down before the Omnipotsnce of
money. Judge Thurman, an honest,
sterling Democrat, who has furnished
more brains and work than any other
one man to keep his party in fighting
trim the last "a years, in card of warn
ing characterized the effort to slaughter
PendletOn as political cut-throat boss
ism. inaugurated for the benefit of a
close party corporation or syndicate"
Those words of warning from the old
Roman, and words Of warning from
Trades Union and labOrers throughout
the states had no effect upon the Demo
cratic representatives at Columbus be-
cause they had no money. If there ever
was plain case of monopoly. money.
and fraud ever corrupting great poll
tical party, the election of Payne, the
wealthy mOnOpolist, reDresentativ Of the
Standard Oil Company,to the U. S. Senate
Is that one. He goes to the Senate not to
represent the people, for the people warn
edthelr Democratic misrepresentation
that they did not want him, but simply
and alone to represent himself, his money.
and the Standard Oil Company. In this
matter the Democratic party clearly de-
clares that man cannot go to the Sem
ate to represent it in the highest coun
ellis Of the nation unless he has more
money than any other man who wants
the position. HOadly paid his $4,000
and secured the governOrship. Payne
Is backed by the Standard Oil Company
and goes to the Senate.
The Democrats are divided, and many
factions exist in the state, and Republi-
cans will have easy work to carry that
state next fall.
There are already too many rich men
in the U. S. Senate, and it is deplOrable
fact. il wealth be the chief requisite to
place in the Senate, and foul shame
when money can buy ana manipulate
the movements of political patty.
There is no question but the encrOach-
ments of capital in America is enslavihg
80 many that there must be either re-
form or conflict. An aristocracy of
money is the meanest of slavery, and
the action of placing man i'll the SEN
ate altogether in the interest Of monOpO-
ly and money should be rebuked by those
who fe:l the insult done their party and
country. This instance of mistake and
fraud by the Ohio Democrats is another
illustration of the fact that their effete
organization has no aspiration higher
than rings, bossism. monopoly and
fraud, they slay their best men, they dis
appoint honest Democrats, and outrage
the wishes of the people. To trust them
with power is to endanger the rights Ut
the people and the interests of the coun-
try. i'aa

HENRY B. PAYNE, nominated for the
Senate by Ohio Democrats by the most
censurable and disreputable methods
has thus delivered himself on the tariff.
Last year in speech he said: Free
trade has never been accepted by the
government Of any civilized nation and
Is impracticable and impossible, and
those words, "for revenue only" unwise-

GAMBETTA was a full grown States
man, the political star of the French
Republic, as il evidenced, in that his
policy, so bitterly opposed through jeal-
Gus mal'co that fought the man in his
life tirlc, is now being revived in an eff
fort to revise the constitution, and elm
mate those things which endanger the
permanence Of the Republic. This line
OF action is in perfect harmony with
Gambetta's life work and aims. He saw
farther, planned moro wisely and com
prehensively than did any other French
man of his day, and it is emphasizing
this fact that the Ferry Cabinet are
seeking to do what they propose, in which
it is hoped they will succeed.

PFNDLLTON killed himself with his
party by being a sincere advocate of
civil service reform, for although Demo-
cracy has had much to say about this
vital question 1t has not in one instance
shown it selffavorable to reform. 1t is
not and has not, in any seriousness
thought of reform, as is shown by their
every act from Carlisle, the committee
on civil service, down to the rank and file
of this corrupt Organizat ion. Congress
men and senator's are bounded by their
constituents for Office and the party only
consider the question of civil service re-
form as one between them and the Re-
publicans. In their opinion all the
fitness they requireth to reform the civil
service is to be Democrat, this is quite
different from the clean work done in
civil service reform by Hayes, Garfield,
Arthur and the Republican party.
