A Second Jackson.

The New York Herald, COM
ment,ng ON President Clcvelands
message, says:
9 s"Mr. Clcvelands attitude wilt re:
call that of President jackson wheE.
he was reuom;nated to the pres,..
dencY. The parallel may be stud.
led with advantage and cheeriai'
assurance by Democratic voters.
Jackson was confronted with an
evil in the shape of bank-a pow
erfal, daring monopoly. He could
have made terms with it ard drift

ministration. jackson attacked it
and was assailed by the most brill
liant combination Of eloquence and
intellect the nation has ever seen.

right, and of him in that battle it
Was written truly that righ teous
courage made one majority. Check
ed, foiIed. repulsed, in the end IN
spite of Webster, Clay and their
mighty allies. he on. The bank
went down, and the national honor
was sayed from the grasp Of a sell
fish, money gathering monopoly.
Mr.. Cleveland, IKE jackson
could have made terms with this
evil. Impatient party. friends have
criticised him for reviving . dor
mant issue and putting in peril
y sure campaign. But, as in the
case Of jackson, the Presidents
honesty would brook neither COM
promise nor surrender. Behind
this surplus, which is only 90 much
plunder of labor, the President saw
monopolles, trusts, forms Of legisla
tive corruption which in time
would have exhausted all the ex-
chequers in the world. He felt
that whether he won or lost, 90 far
a. his personal hopes or political as
pirations were concerned, the work
then would not end until justice
was done and evil removed. Like
jackson he goes before the country
On this issue. And as in the case
of jackson, We feel that the vindi-
cation will be unanswerable and
.complets-a v;nd,cation carrying
with it, = generation of power to
the party which now now honors
him with its leadership and conf.
dence.
Throwing, then, to tho breeze
his standard, ON which he'vrites the
watch word of his canvass, "Unnec-
essary taxation is unjust taxation''
Mr.. Cleveland takes formal COM
mand of the Democratic party and
and the campaign for the Presiden-
cy begins. 1t is q Jacksonian bat
