HOW THEY HATE HIM

Outside of his commanding talents and
his great power as pulpit orator, we never
had any admiration for the Rev. Henry
Ward Beecher. We have, however, been
amused at the constant and merciless at
lacks which the Republican press of the
land have been making on this Reverend
gentleman and his record since he made
known his intention to support Cleveland.
No language seems sufficient TO express the
hate and contempt which the Republican
leaders bear to this Reverend offender.
They appear to think that ii is fair and henor-
able not only to misrepresent what he says,
but to utilize every opportunity to hold him
up 10 ridicule. If he were supporting Blaine
they would exhaust the list of laudatory
adjectivcs in praising him, but because he
has seen proper TO announce his determine
ton To support Cleveland, they find it diff
cult to discover language sufficiently strong
to condemn him. Surely Mr.. Beecher is free
to support Cleveland if he wants to. He
has the right that any citizen has TO vote
for whom he pleases. He does not engage
in Safeguarding Blaine. He does not say
word about Blaines character. He simply
says that he cannot support him because he
does not like his methods of doing things as
a public man, and does not believe that he
is safe man to whom to intrust the gov
eminent He certainly has good reasons
for what he says. When Blaine was Secre-
tary Of State there was apprehension that
he would get the country into trouble with
foreign power. Blaine has reputation
for brilliancy and audacity. He is proud oil
1t, and he wants TO dc something whether or
not he has the opportunity to sustain it. Mr.,
Beecher does not like that sort of u man for
President, and he is frank enough to say so
openly and freely. He still claims to be
Republican, and will probably vote the
Republican ticket next fall with the excep-
ton Of the electoral part Of it. Mr.. Beecher
| is only one of the many thousand Repub-
licans who will not support Blaine. The
| boilers regard him as corrupt man, and
will not vote for him for that reason. They
| think that their party ought to be rebuked
| for nominating a man who represents in
| such marked degree the s2oils clement.
The attacks on Beecher will do him no
harm. The motive which inspires them is
| well understood. Beecher will continue to
give his reasons for not supporting Blaine
Notwithstanding the attacks. OF course ii
is CALLING to Blaine to BIO repudiated by
those who have given character to the Re
publican party.
Whilst Beecher, Curtis, Schurtz and that
character Of men will not support Blaine
| it is noticeable that Elkins, Gould, Brady
Dorsey, Kellogg, Keller and all the govern.
ment rogues stick to him. They will ne
desert him as long as he has any prospect o
success. There could have been no nomi
nation more satisfactory to this character o
i men,

the wisdom of the political party which Sc

that office has outlined its policy and de-
clared its principles, seems to me that moth

the suggestion of certain ell.known truths
