evasions, and is constantly quoted in its vi
Imperative misstatements, by Blaine organs,
deceptively and knowingly as Democratic
journal when the Democracy is no more re-
sponsible for the n. Y. Sun than for the
N. Y. Tribune.
The Sun slurs Cleveland by declarln Z
that he is not fit to be President, that he is
lacking in nearly all the qualities that go tc
make up President, in short that he is q
very weak small man. Now mark the char
acteristic Inconsistency OF the San. On the
Sth of June last, only thirty DAYS prior to the
assembling of the Democratic National con-
ventlon at Chicago the Sun said:
In New York there are two who are much dis
cussed. We mean, of course, Gov. Cleveland
and Roswell p. Fowler. Each has peculiar
merits and those Of the Governor are rare and
elevated; but each has also points of comparative
weakness. Yet, should the convention deter
mine to nominate them, we say emphatcally that
the candidate will stand fair chance of carrying
the state of New York, and the best efforts of
the sun will be devoted to securing his entire
| success.
Then both Mr.. Flower and Mr. Cleveland
had peculiar merits" but those of the Gov
ernor were rare and elevated. Now he is
lacking in all the qualities that go to make
good President! Can INCONSISTENCY, well
go farther'
But Buffers candidacy does not pan out
as was expected. His nomination is prov
ing to be really inconsequential The peo-
pie are seeing, and understanding clearly,
that ne is only restless, uneasy, unreliable
disorganizing marplot. 1t is apparent too,
OF In
as well as from the Democracy, and in this
regard the books will be about balanced.
Dana and Butler are playing their last game
OF political bluff and party mischief. Hence
forth they will not be considered as factors
oil any moment, in any party or political
combination. Their inconsistencies are too
marked, glazing and monstrous, to gain for
them anything but contempt and condem-
nation. Their every political act is at vari-
ance with honesty of purpose and unselfish
sincerity.
Meanwhile the political skies are bright
ming, and there is every encouragement to
believe that the people are arising to dis
place the corrupt party now in power, with
the purpose of restoring to the Government
for the benefit and welfare of all the people.
Advices from all quarters are of the most
cheering character. In spite of all machi-
nations New York will go for Cleveland.
Frowning upon Republican, prohibitory,
sumptuary laws, the Germans of Ohio, with
almost absolute unanimity, will rally
to the support of the Democratic ticket.
! IN Of
comes the cheering news of the awakening
of the people, with determination to rescue
the government from corrupt hands.
Indiana is sure to reverse its action of 1880
and vo for Government reform in NoYem-
ber. Last Saturday the campaign was OPP
cned in that state, in the most lively, vigor-
Gus and encouraging manner. The people
are arousing, the campfres are being light
ed and will continue to burn more and
more brightly till November brings the day
of final action and with it glorious triumph.
In opening the campaign in Indianapolis
Mr.. Hendricks made an able and incisive
speech, arraigning the Republican party, I'M
answerably, for startling malpractices and
dishonesty in admin stration. He showed

are taxed to create a surplus revenue, and
stated that surplus of four million dollars,
is now locked up in the govern ment vaults
at Washington, that ought to have been left
in the pockets of the people. With such I'M
righteous taxation, with such an enormous
surplus filched from the pockets of the peo-
pie, corruption in every department stalks
abroad. Mr.. Hendricks speech was able,
clear, showing perfect familiarity with gov
ernmental affairs, and was the utterance of
true craftsmanship and political philosophy.
The speech fully reported, was published in
the GLOBE Monday morning. Read it,
In short, the outlook everywhere is en-
couraging. The Democracy are putting on
their armor and are everywhere at work.
The Independent Republicans are spurning
Blaine in great numbers, determined that the
government shall not go into the hands OF
a corruptionist This large detection will
seal the doom of a corrupt dynasty.
Let no one be deceived by BIaineite mis-
representations. The alleged detection of
the Irish is untrue. Investigation shows.
that the Democratic voters, of whatever oIigi-
nal nationality, are to-day, as a whole, as
ever true toe the old flag, and will aid in
carrying it triumphantly to the front in No
vember.
