of its conduct and conscious OF substantial
gains, it is hard to guess how high tie wave
may rise. The Democratic party has been
tried in power, and the people feel that IL mas
neither the patriotism nor tho capacity 10
govern. That is the conviction not only OF i's
oppop.nts not only of the independent voters
who are prepared to give the preference TO
either marty. but of the more intelligent aud
tboughtfu Democrats themselves. They ex-
cuse their party as best they can, bat they
confess its uuftness for power. Its disgraceful
scramble for spoils its promotion OF Jail birds
to places Of honor and trust, its neglect OF
public business for private greed, impress
honest voters in its ranks just rs they are i'm
pressed by its gross misconduct on grave
public issues They zee that the party goes
against American interests in assailing the pro-
tective tariff They see that it has not the
breadth of vision or the patriotic feeling to do
Justice to loyal veterans, nor to protect sea-
ports, nor to rebukc the Gripping of the
foreign mail service, nor TO defend honest
settlers on public lands, nor to secure an honest
dollar for honest workers.
In this city, especially, honest Democrats see
that the very men who have disgracod their
party by frauds and crimes, the same rings
which have made the city government n burden
to industry and a stencil in the nostrils have
cast aside all their qlarrels and agreed upon
ticket in order to keep their power to rob the
people. This very agreement OF the rings and
the knaves is a warning. II was just this thing
which gave Mr. Dowd II 600 more votes than
were cast for Garfield in 1880. The Demo
cratic plunderers had united, and that made
honest Democratic taxpayers vote against the
candidate OF the Halls. Mr.. Dowd polled
%, 700 votes, and lacked but 600 of defeat
ing Mayor Grace And now the infames and
crimes which have resulted from prolonging
the rule of the rings have been exposed in
part this year. 1t is hard, indeed, to believe
that respectable Democrats and taxpayers will
vote again to elect candidate of the united
rings against a capable and worthy reformer.

The methods by which the Democrats are
seeking to defeat the election of Justice Daniels
to the Court of Appeals bench are most dscred-
table. The misrepresentation concerning his
age and retirement on a pension we have
already exposed. Filming that would not avail
anything, and not being satisfied with the aid
they are getting from the third party men,
who are opposing Justice Daniels because he is
not enough of ProhIbtionist to satisfy them,
the Democratic Committee has had the follow
ing secret circular sent to every liquor dealer
in the State:

DEAR SIR: We have Just learned Judge Daniels the

The Democratic Committee has thus got the
liquor dealers secretly to oppose Justice
Daniels on the ground that he sympathizes
with Prohibition, while the thirdparty men
put up candidate against him because, "a they
allege, lie does not do so. This is not the first
time, by any means, that the Damocrats have
effected a combination between the third
party men aud the liquor dealers. Bat to
make matters worse, The Bagato Courier, a
Democratic newspaper. prints an editorial
stating that while Justice Daniels has declared
i'm favor of high license, and " any other legis
,ltlon imposing practical restraints upon the
sale OF intoxicating liquors." yet he is not
Prohbitionist at ALL" Here we have the
liquor dealers declaring that he is Prohibi
ZIONIST aud NUT be defeated. and the third
party, or assistant Democrats, declaring that he
must b. defeqted because he is not Prohibi-
ZIONIST, and Democratic editors asserting that
he is a nigh-lcense man, and therefore ought
to be defeated. These are not cred table
tacticA
Justice Daniels will have no opportunity on
the bench to give effect to his views in favor of
u imposing practical restraints upon the sale
of intoxicating liquors." Nor will Justice
Peckham be able to serve his friends the guar
dealers there, they suppose But Justice
Danlels's views on this question ought to meet
the approval of every intelllge man.
