LET HIM SPEAK.

When Col. FREDERICK p. WRIGHT.
the Prohibition candidate for mayor Of
st. Paul. went before the Republican
convention yesterday afternoon he ae-
cepted the nomination and stood upon
the platform adopted by that body. That
platform contained more than insinu-
alton that the administration headed by
Mayor SMITH had converted to its own
use about five million dollars in the past
five years. IN his speech Col. WEIGHT
practically restated this foul aspersion.
though he did not do so in so many
words. We might a. well get down to
facts Does Col, WRIGHT mean TO say
that he Endorses this statement Of his
platform? That platform speaks the
truth or else it lies. 1t impeaches the
personal integrity Of Mayor SMTH-the
first that has so dared in all his long
political career. VIII Col. WRIGHT say
that he believes or indorses that infam-
Gus statement? Ii the Republicans want
personal campaign, against which they
50 bitterly protested last year, they have
made noble beginning, and Col.
WRIGHT must take the responsibility.

The resolutions adopted yesterday
by The 81. Paul Republican convention
comprise almost wholly tissue OF lies.
Combined, the various "planks," or
rather, ill-assorted sentences, form q
mendacious list of political ISLANDERS
never before equaled IN the history of
municipal campaigns in this city.
Read from the platform in "a splendid
voice. by d. f. REESE. they carried
with them their own refutation to every
candid mind in the audience. 1t is,
however, with but one slanderOus ae-
cusatiOn that the GLOBE has now, prin-
cpally. to deal. Abiding to the i'm
crease in the public debt Of a rapidly
growing and prosperous city, the reso-
IutiOns virtually accuse the administers
ton OF Mayor SMITH of misappropriat-
ing over $5,0O0,OO0.
Into what channels this amount has
been detected the Infamous screed
wantonly refuses to suggest, or even
candldly investigate. Used under al
most any other conditions than those
surrounding apoliticai mob Of pot-house
politicians, the accusations contained in
Altot lIoOlullOilS NOulu DC llDelOuS Ill
the extreme. AS it is the low source
from which they emanate fOrbids other
recourse save positive denial and chal-
lenge to the proof. If any men in the
city Of st. Paul are above suspicion of
dishonesty in purpose or in deed. ROB
IRr A. SMITH will head the list. If
there be but one clean-handed man
among our hundreds of prominent citi-
zcnS and active men OF affairs, Mr.
SMITH is that man. His record as a
public servant and private citizen is all
before us, and it becomes pleas
IRE for the GLOBE to pronounce it
HAWKES.. Whether the public debt
of this municipality show an
increase of Sj,0O0,00) or S5O,0OO,
900, the voters, taxpayers and citi-
Zcns generally may rest assured that to
his knowledge not one dollar has been
miSappropriated by a single individual
connected with any of the departments
under his supervision without an inn
mediate penalty following the act. This
has been proven III one instance named
by the scurrlOuS resolutions to which
the GLOBE refers. The other one men
toned, involving the fugitive to Monte
Carlo, has no connection whatever with
the subject of municipal expenditure or
crOOkedneSs, for the reason that the
Oifense was committed against
private real estate firm, with which
the city administration had moth
ing to do whatever. The moral tone of
the Republican party of st. Paul has
fallen to low ebb when a resort is had
TO such measures as were yesterday
taken in an attempt to smireh the bust
hess and political honor of so upright
man rs Mayor SMITH. 1t is boomer
Rng that will do deadly execution at the
polls. 1t is coWardly assault that
awaited no official explanation from the
man authorized to report Comptroller
PONrHAN. As a campaign lie, it will not
hold water twcnty-fOur hours. 1t is an
accusation at once imbecile. inju dici-
Gus and sanderous. 1t presents no
issue aud fortiGes no cause. But it GER
tainly $ amps its originators as men of
small calber, leading forlorn hope,
and ready to adopt desperate measures.

UsEYoURGUNs on HEE ENEMY

81 don't believe in attacking our own
people when they differ from you as to
individuals and candidates." says eX-
Secretary WHITNEY in a recent con-
versation. There is need just now for
this kind of advice to Democrats in all
sections of the country, and especially
in those sections where the margin of
votes is so narrow that every Democratic
vote is needed to ensure success. We
have felt its bad effects in other cam
paigns than the impending one, and we
should avoid it in this one. There is
vast difference between opposing the
desire of a man for preferment and
of abusing or defaming him. The
right Of any one to his preference
should make him ehary of denying the
same right to another as it is in effect
denied. when the object of his choice is
covered with calumnY. Reasons for
support or choice may be good or poor,
but in neither case wiTi'Ihey be weak
ened or strengthened by abuse indie
feasible in any case as is an attack on
our own people," it becomes downright
folly when the political weakness of the
person attacked makes it sheer waste
of force. 1t stirs ill-blood which finds
its revenge on election day. Insist on
your choice if you Will; stand by your
Judgment if sure 1t is right, but if you
must use your gun, turn it on the
enemy and not into our own ranks.
This is good, common sense; likewise
good politics.

PECKsNIFF IN THE SADDLE.

A campaign begun in hypocrisy can
never end in success. The Republican
party has never, in its questionable
career, whether in st. Paul or else
where, failed to pose as the high and
mighty eXemplar of all that is holy and
pure in politics, but the mask has never
been stripped from it without exposing
the grinnlng cOuntenance of deceit that
was behind it. He who proclaims him.
self better thar his neighbors is always
worse, and il mas ever been the mission
of the Republican party TO laud itself
and baSk in the sunlight of its own
smiles. The work of this party yester-
day was in direct line with its tradi-
tons. Flying from Il man of the PEG
pie, whoever he might be, it fell into
the arms OF lot ot hypocrites who have
literally borrowed the livery of heaven
to serve the devil ill.," Through the
efforts of his friends, who thoroughly
represented him, its candidate sought
and obtained the nomination of the Pro
hibitiOn party, virtually giving all the
pledges required by it in rendering the
nomination. This nomination was the
required stepping stone to the Republl-
can nomination, and was eagerly taken.
But once having put on the temperance
garment, he found its cut and fit were
repugnant to the Republicans whose
support he needed, and he promptly
took steps to repudiate and east it off.
With one hand he accepted the Prohibit
ton nomination, while with the other
he waited to the Republicans the quiet
tip that it did not go. And so Col.
WRIGHT finds himself between the
