to Europe. The fact came to light
through the recent passage Of a law re-

Prom The Sew-Yosk Independent.
Henry C. Lea, the famous pablicist OF
Philadelphia. was one Of the original
Mugwumps. He verify thought he was
doing the country a service in advocating
in 1884, the election Of Grover Cleveland
as Civil Service ReGormer. Mr.. lea
describes his conduct in the severest Ian
guage yet applied to il; hut il is not too
severe. The meanest Of all persons is
the hypocrite. But this i precisely what
Mr.. Lea declares Mr.. Cleveland to be,
and, worst of all. he proves the case
against him. Il would be blow to the
interests Of public morality, As ne shows,
to re-elect such a man. Here is Mr.
Cleveland as painted by Mr.. Lea in afew
bold strokes:
"No professional spokesman, openly
proclaiming his belief in the prostitution
Of patronage, could have wrought one
halrthe injury 70 reform asthe hypocrite
smilingly asking: Art thou in health
my bro,herT while he plants his knife
under the fah rib.
"The celebrated order Of July Il. lssG.
warning al place-holders against 'obtra-
siye partisanship,' was Of interest only as
a curiously superilous exhibition Of hyp0-
crisy.
"The President himself debased bis
high office and broke with all It's tradi-
ton by interfering in the local politics
ofKew-York City TO aid the election Of
a former beneficiary Of Tweed
"The only effect, indeed, Of Mr. Cieye-
lands reform professions was to give q
deeper shade Of guilt tothis whole sc4n-
dalous performance. Before he COM

self By pretending to remove only for

tations ofthousands Of honest men. who
were denied all opportunity of defense
against secret accusations.

istration the rags and tatters lee Of Civl

foul business Of Congressional office
brokerage has never been more often
siyely rife OF more eynically public that
in the scramble for spoils which his poll
cy has stimulated.
@-che effect Of these transformations
is reflected in the massive egotjsm Of Mr..
CIeveland's recent letter of acceptance,
in which he assumes that he is the Gov
eminent, and lectures the opposition in
Congress as though resistance to his will
were reasonable.
Incidentally, may call attention 10
the deplorable aspect Of Mr. Cleveland's
candidacy in the degradation Of Ameri-
can politics, which his success would inn
ply after his self-exposure Of broken
pledges and hishonored promises
"Mr. Cleveland's defeat is, therefore
a condition precedent to any hope Of re-
lief from the spoils system. He has been
weighed and found wanting, and on
first duty is make an example Of him.
