THE NEW HAVEN RESOLUTIONS.
Resolved, That the national republi-
can convention recently held in Chicago
has in it's platform departed from the
purposes for which the party exists.
Resolved, That the convention has
still further disappointed those who
desire pure administration and an ad
vance in the standard of political action
by the nomination of James G. Blaine
and John A. Logan.
Resolved, That it is the duty of every
man who is in sympathy with the
principles of republicanism to stand by
those principles even though the party
may desert them.
Resolved, That these candidates are
unworthy our support.
Resolved, That committee of five
be appointed by the chairman, which
committee shall nominate and report a
standing committee of 25, including
themselves in this number, to cores
pond with other bodies of republican
or independent voters who may be in
sympathy with our views and to repre-
sent the sentiments of this meeting at
any general conference which may be
called.

The National Campaign.

That well-printed paper, the Wind
sor journal, takes exception to the
CdIedORidn's illustration of LOgan's
practical craftsmanship" and produces
evidence to support its own position.
This evidence consists solely in the
fact that Logan was soldier. OF
whatever he has done during the past
twenty years i'll congress, the journal
has nothing to say. Fighting, accord
ing to OuI esteemed contemporary, is
"practical craftsmanship and a good
soldier should be made vice-president,
not because of his possession or lack
of knowledge, but because he can fight.

but after their success in 80 they re-
covered so rapidly that they were not
only nauseated by the medicine but

of characteristic laundering they have

THE WAY TO DO 1T.
1t will be found that the effective
way to win over the republicans OPP
posed to Mr.. Blaine is to show that as
ii matter of fact there are no spots on
his record and no reason to believe
that he is an enemy to civil service,
and a reduction of the burdens of tax
alton, that he has in the main shown
himself a safe leader, calm and care
full student of our foreign relations, a
man rot apt to stir up strife for the
sake of sensation, man who has no
| faith in the scheme to continue to col
lect heavy taxes and distribute the
surplus among the states. Let the
Blaine organs show these things, and
the opposition of the COdmans and the
Adamses and the Curtises and the Lows
would cease at once. Let them act
upon this hint. In proportion as they
are successful in doing this they will
win back the support they are now
working by a wrong method to win fol
the plumed knight.-[Greenfield Ga

A MURDER MYSTERY SOLVED.
The body of Herman Krause, who
was murdered at South Hero last Win
ter, was found Thursday in Maquam
bay with a bullet hole in the back of
the head and bullet in the brain. 1t
has been buried at SwantOn. Oscar
Meyers, who was arrested on suspicion,
is in state-prisOn awaiting develop
ments. He was stranger to Krause
and induced the latter to start for St.
Adams with him one day in January.
Krause never re-appeared, and Meyers
was arrested in the recruiting Office at
Albany, n. Y, with the murdered
mans clothes in his possession, he
having enlisted in the regular army.
The bullet in Krause brain was of b
caliber and Meyers is known to have
disposed of a revolver of that kind.
Papers have been found showing that
the murdered mans real name was
Karl Heinrich Herman. He was 25
and came from Hamburg, Germany, a
year ago.

mer was struck by train there Fri

BY comparing the record of the two
parties for the last twenty-five years
am forced to the conclusion that the
republican party is the safest party to
trust and | do not believe you can
truthfully say you had rather trust
Cleveland and his party than Blaine
and his party.
We regret that our correspondent is
50 blinded by partiZan zeal that he has
lost faith in our sincerity. If we are
to judge "Blaine and his party" by
Blaine's record We are forced to the
conclusion that it is one no true re-
publican can support. The republican
party sprang from moral agitation.
1t has achieved a noble work. AS time
has gone on venal tone has been
creeping into it. Enormous frauds
connected with the civil service have
been revealed. In the hope that party
leaders would hear to reason, the most
vigorous protests against these things
have been made. 1t was fairly expect
ed that the party would not take any
action that should imply even indiffer-
emce to the corrupt practices. But
when in the face of all this the party
puts forth as its standard bearer IL man
conspicuous by his association with
doubtful measures and whose record
shows IL prostitution of a high Office
to private emolument, the nomination
gives the lie to all professions of re
form within the party and tends to
identify the party with all that has
given it odium in the past. Because
Mr.. Blaine represents the things in the
republican party that all good repub-
Leans have repudiated, we cannot sup
port him.

Nothing that we know Of.

What have You found out new about
Mr.. Blaine? That Mr.. Blaine had the
fullest confidence of both Lincoln and
Garfield Is true beyond dOubt; that
they had ample opportunities To fairly
try and Judge him on his merits rs
man and statesman is equally true.
Inasmuch as Mr.. Blaine has not been
in public life since he resigned his posi-
ton as secretary of state under Gar
field, there is, of course. nothing new"
about him. But we don't know about
Mr.. Blaine's having the fullest conf
dence of Abraham Lincoln. Nor are
We at all certain that President Lin
coin had an ample opportunity to
fairly try etc. Blaine had barely en-
tered upon his public career when
Lincoln was assassinated and his repu-
tation has been made since that time.
But had he lived we have very serious
doubts about honest Abe Lincoln COM
meuding to the people man who sold
his influence As speaker of the house
to railroad and who manipulates leg
islation, when in Congress, to his own
personal gain. No, Abraham Lincoln
was neither brilliant" nor "aggres-
sive," but there was that purity and
uprightness in his character, which
could never have permitted him to

shot struck the latter in the abdomen,

ton should set in there would be but
slight hope of the young mans re-
cOvery.
