q man Of his ability and experience
should know better than to attempt
deception on q subject which was as
we'll known to every man in the audi
ence as to him. The revival OF busE
ness was looked for too long not to De
felt in every part of the country wher
it arrived. Senator Sherman should
remember that predictions which did
service before the election of Demo
cratic President, of disasters and out
RACES rs the result of such an election,
are calculated to do more injury than
benefil to the Republican party at the
present time.
The people of the country have be-
fore them the record Of eighteen
months of Democratic Administration
at Washington. 1t Is 3 record OF the
rsost unassaaable kind. Every pledge
has been scrupulously kept every
promise fulfilled. The Government is
conducted with less expense, leaks are
stopped, honesty and economy en-
forced and the business community en-
couraged. The efforts of the Admins
tration were directed towards the re.
vival of business confidence. How
successful they have been the entire
country can testify The disastrous
depression which hung so long over
the land, paralyzing its industries and
enterprise, has been removed and the
sun of prosperity is shining in an I'M
clouded sky. What folly, then, for
Senator Sherman to insist on the old,
exploded falsehood that a Democratic
Administration is fatal to business.
There was a time when, like Virgins,
he might have found persons foolish
enough to believe in his wild predic.
tons. That time has passed and the
American people can never be fooled

Sherman's inventive powers in political

A BLIND PARTISAN.

No One So Blind He Who Will Not
Sec Sherman's Statement That the
Democratic Administration Has Para
lyzed business.
Senator Sherman is an example of
the extremes to which partisan rancor
will lead a man of abundant expert
ence in public affairs. Forty years of
public Life should equip him with judg-
ment capable of discerning the drift of
popular sentiment, and the new condi-
ton of things which has come about
in this country. Such an experience
should also have taught him the
folly of making such an assertion as
that uttered at Portsmouth. in his own
State, when he stated that distrust and
want of confidence on the part of
every business man. farmer and Ia
borer, followed the election of Presi-
statement he added another equally
devoid of truth, that the election Of q
Democratic President produced a
Grafton of industries, which were once
fiourishing. Of all issues that could
be manufactured by Republican
That of the bloody shirt is, sensible in
comparison. AT time when the en-
tire land is reverberating with the din
of awakened industry, when from all
sides comes the welcome, intelligence
OF a business revival, such as the
country has not experienced for years,
when manufacturers and traders are
at their wits end TO supply the de-
mand upon them, when the signs OF
prosperity are daily multiplying, such
an assertion as that made by Senator
Sherman at public meeting can only
be regarded as the climax of stupidity.
OF course, it can not be imagined fol
