The Sentinel may wriggle, and twist, and
froth away as much as it pleases about the
issues involved in our city election, but every
main question involved is one in which every
vicious element in the city has entered into
combination to defeat the friends of law and
order. 1t is not question of Republicans
against Democrats, nor of Democrats against
Republicans, as such. The question is, will
the saloons control our city, or will our city

ment on the part of citizens, irrespective of
politics, insures an absolutely free and fair

means full ballot, and, therefore, an
expression of the real wishes of the
majority. With this kind Of feeling there
can be no harm come to popular and repre-
sentative government. We only wish there
was anything like such an interest In
Indianapolis over the result of next Tuesdays

DEMOCRATIC speakers have suddenly be-
come very fond of quoting the words of Gen.
Grant in regard to Southern affairs Why do
they not quote something like the following
which he uttered respecting the question of
free and fair elections in the Southern States:
"There is not precinct in this vast Nation
where Democrat cannot cast his ballot and
have it counted as cast. no matter what the
predominance of the opposite party. He can
claim his political opinions. even if he is only
one among thousand, without fear and with
out prescription on account of his opinions
There are eight States, and localities in some
others, where Republicans have not this priv
ilege."
And in one of his messages to Congress-
while President of the United States General
Grant said:
"To deprive colored citizens of the RIGHT TO
free ballot; to suppress schools
in which colored children are taught, and to
reduce the colored people to a condition akin
to slavery. y To effect these objects
many murders and crimes of minor degree
have been perpetrated, and have been left un-
punished"
We commend these extracts to our Demo
cratic friends, who have so lately become
enamored of General Grants utterances.

AS reproduced from memory, which in this
instance may be accepted as very carefully

pect to vote for Governor Hill and aid his
election by personal and not by official in
fuences." The President is hardly obtuse
enough not to know that this kind Of talk is
not good sense. He can not possibly favor
the Democratic ticket without carrying with
him the official influence attaching to him.
It is of little moment whom Smith
or Jones announce he will vote for; but
when Mr.. Cleveland speaks, the President
speaks. This is not saying that his influence
will carry thousands, or even tens, with him,
but whatever there is of him as President will
will 60 with his electioneering words. Ev-
erybody understands this, and to juggle with
the question is only to confess hypocrisy. We
believe that Mr. Hill will be defeated next
month, whether the President openly espouses
his cause or not But, if we are to have gen.
uine civil-service reform, and to lift
officials out Of the temptations and
"evils" of active politics, the principle should
be applied alike to ALL We cannot make fish

civil-service reform is worthy Democratic en-

IAN OFFENSIVE PARTISAN. y


The latest from the President concerning
the New York election and the candidacy of
Mr.. Hill comes from Buffalo, from a gentle
man who was somewhat surprised" to re-
ceive letter from Mr. Cleveland in which
he, unsolicited, gave his hearty support to the
Democratic ticket. The letter itself is not
produced; but it is given publicity as recalled
by still another gentleman who was permitted
to read it. If the public is to accept this evil
dence, and to believe that Mr. Cleve-
land does heartily favor the election
Of Mr.. Hill and his fellow nominees, and,
further, that he intends to make trip to
New York to vote for them, what use is
there in longer idly specializing on the out
come of the civil-service reform experiment

the President to leave Washington to go to
the aid of his party, what possible objection
can be found to the men in the departments

ocrat in Indianapolis held his nose when the
Liquor League and vicious elements combined
and soisted Mr. Cottrell upon the Democratic
convention. Cottrell is not the candidate of

all decent Republicans and bury "Cottrellism"

present issue let partisan politics be laid aside.

The Democrats of Ohio are doing all they
can to break up the joint debates arranged be-
tween Foraker and Hoadly, after SO much
trouble and lodging on the part of the latter.
The first one is to be held at Toledo to-day,
and the Democrats have thus far declined to
enter into proper arrangements for the meet
ing. The Republicans proposed to issue
tickets for the hall, one-half to each party,
but the Democrats declined, declaring that
the hall must be opened as -for-all, the
intention being to pack it with hoodlums
who would howl Foraker down. A special
from Toledo, published in the Chicago Sun,
an independent Democratic paper, says
Democrats refuse to consent to the issue
of tickets to the opera-house, and propose to
fill the building with sluggers and cry down

hall, and a fight is looked for and blood is
likely to be shed. The public is greatly ex-
