Giving the Enemy the Guns.

communicated
Running Democratic administration with
Republican officials is like fighting an enemy
to whom you have handed your gun. You
mean to whip your enemy, bat to do 80 you
place him behind the breastworks, baud him
your gun and then demand his immediate
surrender. You intend to purge out official
corruption, and to do 80 you place in charge
Of the Offices the very men whom you accuse
of fraud and then you demand reform.
What farce The Democrats said in their
speeches snc through their papers that
the Republican officials were corrupt 'ras-
Gals" and must be turned out The PEG sle
believed the charge and went to the polls
and voted to turn them ali out from Presi-
dent to the clerk in the department. The
voters are now told that it was only ruse
10 get heads OF departments out that few
Democrats might get in, but that the bal
eDce OF the force was pure and holy. This
is the plain English OF the scheme. There
was no more necessity of turning oat
turning out the force under him
and every Democratic vote cast for
Cleveland was cast for some Democrat, or
some one who was aiding the Democrats, to
take the place of Republicans as much as it
wss for Cleveland to take the place of Arthur.
To change the head and retain tue corrupt
body Will not answer the Democratic votes
cast last fall. Is 1t true that out of nearly
five million voters who stood up for Cleve-
land that there are not enough to be found
who can read and write to I'll the oficss2
If SO. hereafter let all vote the
Republican ticket. Bat If President
Cleveland is the honest and fair man
that We thought he was when we
all voted for him he will yet make a cnange
OF clerks ell along the line. Mr.. Cleveland,
this is what We meant last November. This
Government was not established for one
class TO the exclusion of all others. IL the
object of Washington was merely to change
the Government from King George to q
dozen American Kings, then did the fathers
die in vain. Carry out the promises all
along the line is the demand.

THE PANAMA TROUBLES.


The act of the Administration in for
warding troops to Aspinwall is approved
by the entire country. But what shall be
the line of action of the force when it az
: rives is the question. OF course, so far as
the protection of American citizens and
their property Is concerned, it will be
clear sailing. But are we to be compelled
under our treaty right of forty years ago, to
retain a force of soldiers on the Isthmus.
for any great length of time, for that pur-
pose? The only complaint we have to
make against the Colombian Government
Is that 1t was not fortunate in checking
the operations Of insurgents and in main
tanning our transit guarantee The ineffi-
cheney of the State of Panama will enttle
us TO claim against her for damages suf-
fered by our citizens, that will scarcely be
resisted by the Colombian or the State
authorities That a rebellion against them
Is in progress which they have not sup
pressed, is not necessarily a ground for any
of protecting the trans-isthmian route. If
needed, we may render the Colombians
assistance beyond that in quelling the re-
bellion. We are not bound by our treaty
to do so; yet we will be justified in tender
ing aid to a treaty power for the re-estab-
lishment Of order in one OF its States. The
United States of Colombia is one Of the
most advanced of the South American
Governments, and it has the abil-
ity to cope with its insurgents.
Its relations to the United States Of Amer
lea are exceedingly cordial and close. 1t
has favored US probably before most other
nations, and will raise no question con
corning the landing Of an armed force from
this country upon its soil. Yet it, several
States are constantly liable to raids by re-
bellious bands. For years these insurgents
have given trouble; every now and then
they start what Is there termed a revolu-
ton, but which here would be considered
little more than riotous proceeding.
There is scarcely any time when these in
SurgentS are not operating in some part of
the republic, but they have not prevailed
since 1870. For ten years prior to that
date all the nine States Of the Union
Antioquia, Bolivar, Boyaca, Cauca. Gun
dinamarca, Magdalena, Panama, Santander
and ToIima-were disturbed by civil war
but the constituted Government, which
closely resembles our own in form. was no.
overthrow, nor at any time did it lose
recognition.
In 1861 the present form of Government
was firmly established, and was the out
come of two years of sharp civil strife.
About eighteen months ago the State of
Panama engaged in an election for sue
cessor to OrtaloFa, then President, DIR.
Nunez being chosen after considerable
wrangling and some armed contests. His
defeated competitor, Witches, did not take
kindly to the result. Dissatisfaction with
local administrations was fomented
by the minority, and finally sort
of local revolution was inaugurated. This
gave courage to malcontents iu other parts !
of the Republic. In Panama, the Presi-
dent was deposed by insurgent proclama-
ton, and first one and then another set
