We arraign the Democratic
administration Of President
Cleveland for having failed to
keep the pledges on which it
came into power. 1t promised
economy and retrenchment, and
has been most eytravagant in
expenditures and 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-
cumulate to the injury 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 Understanding
debt of the country. 1t prom
ised to care for and give atten-
tion to the disabled soldiers and
sailors of the late war, and has
treated with contemptuous veto
every pension bin against which
it could find any shadow of tech
nical objection. 1t promised to
protect the person and properly
Df citizens both at home and
abroad, and to maintain he dig
nifty Of the nation, yet in its re-
IationS with Grert Britain it has
shown itself unwilling to give
protection to either person or
property, and has permitted our
lag to be inSulted, without !
proper protest, almost i'll sight I
If our shores, while by hasty and /
action it has unneceS-
'arily jeopardiz"d our friendly !
citations with the Mexican Re !
public, and made our nation !
ridiculous in the eyes OF the /
world Its evasion of civil ser
tice reform, to which its leading
representatives are pledged,
lavc been bold, insolent and
awless. 1t has shown itself no
riend to Nevada, because,
mong its first acts of admins
ration, it closed the L. S. Mint
II Carson City, in utter violation
# the law, to the great detri-
lent OF every miner and silver
PRODUCER in this State in partic-
liar, and of the public in gen
raj. 1t has seriously impaired
ur mail facilities without shad-
w of just excuse. 1t has out
aged the express will of Con-
.ress, and denied to this people
heir rights by its unexplained
nd continued refusal to execute
he law for the erection OF a
Building in the
'ap;t:l of the State. 1t has
sed the entire power Of tho ad-
to destroy silver as
money, and by a refusal to exc
ute the law and pay out silver
)r Government dues has kept
ne metal out of circulation, and
Y various devices it has re-
uced the price of silver since
ne Inauguration of President
leveland more than I5 per
ant. 1t has closed many of our
liver mines, and thrown thous-
