Thomas County cat. [volume] (Colby, Kan.) 1885-1891, 1888-06-07

Grover Cleveland, the democratic
Dictator was nominated at st. Louis
Tuesday by reclamation. Never, be-
fore, in the history of a party in the
United States has there been time
when man could simply sit down
and tell a party what it must do, and
be obeyed to the letter. Elected four
years ago by an accident, on the OPEN
ly avowed principle that it was dan
gerous to the peace and prosperity of
a country to place any man more than
one time in the presidential chair:
Avowedly the champion of civil SER
vice reform, Grover Cleveland. in mai
esterial form, dictates to his party his
own denomination for the place, and
the nomination of the man
for the second place, and
his party humbly, reverently, Weld
and nominate. The American people.
however, will remember that old say
ing. The guilty conscience needs no
accuser. and win likewise remember
that, never in the history of the nation
has been man so nearly dictator as
Cleveland, and, remembering, will re-
fuse SO dangerous an experiment as
second term for the man of destiny.
