TO insure a Republican victory in 1885, and who
think that the aim Of the administration is TO
form a Mugwump party. weaken aud finally de-
sgroy the Democratic organisation and insult and
ignore the i aders and workingnen OF the party
BY selecting outsiders in preference 10 them for

Cleveland is q Democrat. SO Is every mem Der
of his Cabinet They will give us Democratic
administration, reoTganize the party and define

not 10 destroy but 10 build Up and strengthen the
Democratic party. But before they can DO that

IT Is with no ill feeling sgsinst our Repub-

the contentment of the colored citizens Of

to fall upon the negroes with the election OF
Mr.. Cleveland, we recall no period of eight
weeks within twenty years past IN which
there has been such universal harmony in
The South. Something OF the fesling there
about the colored brother may be seen in
the comments of the Charleston News and
Courisr over the appointment OF Tom Ham
