WUYTHE CHANGE WOULD BE HNZ-
IRDOUS


Mr.. Jay Gould, man destitute of the
finer feelings and impulses of the human
nature, man whose greed and avarice have
done so much to demoralize all Legitimate
business, man who has grown immensely
wealthy by reducing hundreds of men and
their wives and children to want and beg
gary, man who was never known to do a
charitable act, man who ''cheek by jowl'
with Dorsey, Elkins and that stripe and
stamp of political and personal rascals, has
the impudence to assert that ''any expert
ment in the way of change of administration
would be hazardous" He does not tell
wherein the hazard would be, so we will sup
ply his omission. 1t would be decidedly
hazardous to the gang of corrupt men who
claim to carry the Republican party in
their pockets and who believe
that men and states can be
purchased like sheep and lands. 1t would
be very hazardous to Mr.. Blaine, who would
find the avenues" guarded by honest men,
so that he could not feather his nest without
detection and exposure. 1t would be hazard
Gus to the star route thieves. 1t would be
have used the peoples money to carry the
elections. 1t would be hazardous to the
young men of the country, who would be
taught by the election of Blaine, that corrupt
and fraudulent conduct is not a barrier to
political advancement to the highest position
in the nation,
The defeat of the Blaines, Goulds, Elkins,
nd fbai ~
in the direction of honesty and good govern
ment. 1t will be an example to all young
men, who will be made to understand that
honesty and integrity must be the basis upon
which to build themselves up, and, if from
no higher motive, convince them
that ''honesty is the best policy''
1t will convince the rising generation that
mans rascality cannot be covered up but
must surely come to the surface. The elec-
ton of Cleveland will secure reduced taxa
ton, good wages and permanent employ
ment. 1t will secure an honest and econ
omical administration of the government.
1t will secure to the laboring men the rights
they have long sought for at the hands OF
the Republican party. The monopolists
will no longer control he legislation of the
country and increase their iil-gotten gains at
the expense of the honest laborers. 1t will
secure the strict enforcement of individual
rights against corporate abuses. Under the
wise, honest and conservative policy of Mr..
Cleveland the Office will not be sold
to the highest bidder and posi-
tions on the supreme bench
cannot be purchased by Jay Gould or any OF
his gang As Gould never gives anything
without consideration, and as ne has pro-
missed to contribute to the Republican cor
ruption fund since his late interview with
Blaine, the public is curious to know what he
has been promised in case the people of the
country decide that it is ''hazardous to make
a change" If, however, the people should
decide that change is necessary, honest and
true men Will fill the offices and civil service
reform will be a genuine reality. There will
be no ''dead heads" under the new admins
tration. If the people desire an honest en-
forcement of the laws, at the least expense
necessary to a faithful administration OF
them, they will vote for Cleveland and Hen
bricks and thus will they place the seal OF
their condemnation upon the corrupt prac-
tees of Blaine and the dishonest men he has
gathered around him.
