UTICA, y. T., Oct. 24.-The following is a
copy of manifesto issued to Republicans by
he Independent or Stalwart Republicans Of
Utica and vicinity tonight:
The undersigned, Republicans of Oneida
county, not preventing themselves in the attitude
Of dictating 10 their fellow-citz. rs, desire TO
place before them in a brief form what to their
minds constitute unanswerable objections to Mr..
Blaine q candidate for the presidency. With
out attempting to elaborate argument, they
simply present these conclusions:
l. lis prostitution Of his official position in
his most influential station as speaker of the
house of representatives to his own private gain
and emoumept. or this he is convicted beyond
,avil out of his own mouth. No candid man rs
we think VINO will read the ''HulligAn letters
reach any other conclusion.
.. The falsehood, evasion, and utter INSULT
cheney OF his attempted explanation in his
speech in the house, when, he affirmed, he
took into his confidence forty y-four million people
only to bctray and deceive them.
?. The lack Of all statesmanship in his long
congressional career. which has failed to identify
his name with any single affirmative act of well
iefned or conspicuous public Importance, and
Is negative character has contributed to the
lelay defeat Of many measures of wise legis
alton.
:. The attempt, by debating to his correspond
Ell The writing of a letter, ostensibly voluntary,
containing statements which he and his
sponden' knew to be glaringly false, presents
containing all the elements, if it be not fairly
charged as, subornation of perjury.
3. As it * a distinguished mark of cleanness
Uf hands that public man retires from Office no
richer THAI he enters it, so, on the other hand, it
is serious imputation that one so situated, with
no iyate fortune previously accumulated and
IAlucraiive profession to supplement his legiti-
mate wages, should be ranked among the million
aires, who like the ''lilies, toll not neither do
they spn,'' and yet receive the rewards that eau
only fairly be won By honest effort and legiti-
mate gain.
8. While in the home field no credit but, as we
.hink, great dshonor has attended the efforts Of
Mr.. Blaine, in the field OF diplomacy he has ex-
hibitcd.
BoTH IGNORANCE AND INCoMPETENcY,
coupled with a reckless audac ity that might well
. but for a timely arrest have exposed the nation
to results destructive of the peace and harmony
of the cixilzcd world.
{: Reversing the sound rule that the Office
should seek the man, not the man the office, this
Hspirant for the presidency has thrice trust him
self before the people, twice rejected a candi
r
clamor and interested partsanship of n class
who largely support him-contact with whom is
degradation, in defiance Of the judgment of
sound and sober thinking men. Tx only awaits
now his third, and trust final condemnation.
We believe that in following the dictates of q
conscientious convention Republican for
feits in any degree his standing and position IN
the party TO which he has been and
still is attached, but simply maintains-the
Fights to which the party has always been
pledged OF free thought free speech, and free
men.
In conclusion. while we are well aware that
shis declaration will expose to the criticism
and quite probably the vtuperation, of which we
haze already received full measure, of blind
zcallts ard interested adherents of the party,
sc look on the other hand with some confidence
for kind treatment and candid consideration
from the old ana ing tcied friends from whom
ON thls single issue we reluctantly separate.
We PART IN GRIEF
and not in anger. We readily concede to these
friends, made sch on many Il hard-fought field
for the party we served aGd the union we loved,
the same liberty of choice and honesty of pur-
pose that We Claim for ourselves. But we can
not however severe the struggle, give up our
convictions or surrender our nanhness at the
mere behest of party. Like the old reformer,
we can only say: ''Here we stand. We can
not he otherwise" God help and save the re-
public.
