I ;i-S.,'t the slack men robbed OF the elec-

cratic party to the doctrine OF Stat

diplomatic appointments, made b
President Cleveland. We censure hi
selection Of persons to represent TIL
government at he courts of forelg
countries, who deny the indiss3iua5
unity OF this nation, who, during u
rebellion, either fought for Its s:ieces::
or justified the principle on which

siTe bY his persistent removal OF oil:

putable devices OF the offensive partisa
scheme formulated by his POSTMASTER
General and practiced by the otht
heads OF departments and the PresideI
himself.
