We arraisn the Democratic
administration af President
Cleveland for having failed to
keep the pledges on which it
came into power. 1t promised
economy and retrenchment, and
has been most cx!ravagant in
expenditures ana appropriations,
which. for the current year,
largely exceed the abundant
revenues of the Government. 1t
promised to reduce the surplus
in the Treasury, has permitted
such surplus to lie idle and ac-
cunulate to the isjury Of the
business Of the country, and has
refused to approve Of the action
of a large majority Of both
Houses OF Congress directing
that such Surplus be applied in
Of the interest bearing
debt of the country. 1t prem
ised 10 care for and give atten-
tion to the disabled soldiers and
sailors cf the late war, and has
treated with contemptueus veto
every pension bill against which
t could find any shadow Of tech
aical objection. 1t promised to
protect the person and property |
If citizens both at kome and |
and to maintain he dig |
atty of the nation, yet in its re-
atiens with Grert Britain it has
shown itself unwilling to give
protection to either person or
and has permitted our /
lag to be insulted, without
proper protest, almost in sight !
If our shores, while by hasty and
lnseemly action it has unneces-
'ariiy jeopardized our friendly
citations with the Mexican Re-
public, and made our nation
idiculous in the eyes Of the
world Its evasion of civil SER
ice reform, to which its leading
representatives. are pledged,
rave been bold, inaolent and
awless. 1t has shown itself no
riend to Nevada, because,
:Rong its first acts Of admins
ration, it closed the U. S. Mint
u Carson City, in utter violation
t the law, to the great detri-
lent Of every miner and silver
rOducer in this State in partic-
lar, and of the public in gen
raj. 1t has seriously impaired ,
ur mail facilities without shad-
W of just excsSc. It has out
,ged the express will of Con-
ress, and denied to this people
1eir rights by its unexplained
nd continued refusal to execute {
ne law for the erection eff u
overnment Building in the ,
ap:tal Of the State. 1t has
sed the entire power Of the ad- 6
linlstration to destroy silver as |
loney, end by a refusal to exc .
lte the law and pay out silver (,
r Government dues has kept ,
le metal out of circulation, and {
various devices it has re- i
aced the price of silver since i
le Inauguration Of President 4
Ieveland more than Is per ,

lver mines, and thrown thous-
ids OF honest laborers oat Of

We favor tariff upon the i'm !
'rted products of low-priced c
reign labor SO as to protect the t
tcrests of American wage r
srkers, and for the develope- r
