vigorous imagination and the venerable

of Mrs. Bristol of New Jersey that the can
didate should be man with an eye single
to the best interests of the country" This
delicate. graceful and original reference

that the government issue greenbacks
and spend them in various ways until all

Why the Boston Advertiser 0ppo-
ses Blaine.

l. He is the leading and most Wig
orous Republican representative of
dangerous political methods and
practices.
2. when Secretary of State) he
showed himself most dangerous
guide Of foreign policy.
3. We also oppose him because
his personal character has been for
years under grave suspicion, which
has been materially strengthened
by his own behavior in regard to
the charges that are SO very often
brought against him. He has been
presented before the country under
circumstances in which no mans
honor could escape unless the most
complete explanation were forth
coming; but instead of explanation,
he himself has been content with
bravado or with shutting, and his
friends have been content to abuse
or ridicule those who demand that
a public mans honor should be
without reproach.- Boston Adver-
tiser.
We do not ''boom" Mr.. Cleve-
land because he is Democrat, for
we are no more Democratic now
than we were when we supported
Garfield in 1880, or urged the NOM
ination of Edmunds or Arthur by
the Republicans last month: We
belong to neither party, and speak
our mind freely as to both. We
want to see Mr.. Cleveland nomina-
ted and elected because we believe
him to be an honest man and know
him to be a safe executive officer.
