In the early days of the American
Republic the political struggle be.
tween the advocates of a strong
government led by Alexander Hamil-
ton and the advocates of the largest
freedom for the people led by Thomas
Jefferson laid the foundation for the
only genuine Democratic government
in existence. Mr.. Hamilton believed
it was dangerous to the government
to give the people uurestraineG free
dom. Reared under the shadow of
a throne he could not accustom him
self to an absolutely free system of
govern ment and having to weld his
views on matters of general import he
was given control of the financial de.
partment of the government, and as
secretary of the treasury, his ideas of
governmental power were adopted as
nearly as was consonant with Demo-
cratic theory. Hamilton with the

utateJ. stephen Hogg
1 am dying, Tyler, dying,
Shrinks my pigish boomlette fast,
And hateful, dark and Clarkish
threatnings
Are gathering on the campaign blast
Let thine arms, Oh, Horace, hold me,
Cease thy winnings, bow thine ear,
Listen to the apless gruntings
Thou, and thou alone must hear.
Though my SCARED and veteran Hay
seed
Shout and yell for me no more,
Though they've joined McCulloch's
forces
And left me sad, and alone and sore,
Though my "misfits" shall seek no
longer
To, "be it enacted" as | will,
Must perish like q porker,
Be stabbed, and sQueal, and then lie
TILES
No, by gattlinAs, won't stand it,
l shall squeal and kick some more,
Till every follower L can master
Shall strew defeats dark, fatal shore.
What matters it to me how fare they?
What prosperous business 1 disrupt?
So in office still they keep me.
And me and Horace still climb up.
All, tits silly thus to babble
OF my climbing, now tbs DER,
For my public life is ending,
And shall climb, ah, never more.
Down, down go into oblivion,
Down, down go in blacklist night,
For, did the graDgers, they have left
me,
And Clark has whipped me in this
fight.
But let not Wsrwick's household
legeons
Mock the beast that's thus laid low,
Twas no Waco man that slew him,
Twas Bonner's hand that struck the
blow.
He had me intervene to savs him,
And then because Brown did "sup-
prise"
He himself now writes letter
In the which he says Hogg lies.
And as for thee. Oh, Horace, darling,
Z. s. senator of late,
Thou art not altoge ther guiltless
Of this, my shameful, hapless fate.
Thou didst tackle r, @. Mills, sir,
In an evil hour and day,
Thou gotst stuck on thine own great
ness
And madly threw my chance away.
Didst thou not think, oh, silly Peck
sniff,
Dldst thou not believe, oh, Horace,
say,
Oidst thou not know that Mills would
squelch thee
When e'er thou daredst get in his
way?
But thou didst it, thou my trusted,
Thou the man thought ney,
thou didst list to Webby Finley,
And made your "rep" in the wrong
way.
But I'll forgive you now my darling,
If you'll stick to me yet a while,
And light the path to Tyler's back
woods
With the splendOrs of thy smile.
Give the Warwick nominations,
All the glories that were mine,
can scorn convention triumphs,
in love like thine.

Hark, the delegates do call,
They are gathering, quick, the pitcher,

Shall my heart exultant swell,

the liberties Of the individual citizen,
who was free to do as he pleased if in

Hamilton's idea Of the province of
government was to protect the gov

giving him liberty of action only so
far as such action was compatible
with a harmonious whole. The Dem.
ocratic theory prevailed in the estab.

people. Fer the adjudication of all
differences arising between man and
man inferior courts were established
as near the people as possible, aud to
these tribunals the sovereign citizen
could appeal for the preservation of
his rights, against the encroschment
of not only his fellow man but the

buying foreign merchandise at a rate
which, on the free traders theory adj
vanced SO earnestly last year, would
prove very great and general prosperi-
ty. The nation seems able to pay for
more than it sells abroad, and is in a
fair way to become quite English in
this respect, and yet the mugwumps
and the democrats are not satisfied.
Somehow facts will not come to suit
their needs.
Twas ever thus. The circulating
medium of the United States increased
just when the infationists and calam-
ity howlers wanted to tell the voters OF
the west that they were being ruined
by shrinkage in the supply of money.
The farmers have paid off their mort
cages at a great rate, while the demo-
Gratis who think whisky is OBJ
tanned by tapping the jim-jams tree
have been lamenting the imaginary de
cay of American agriculture. The cost
of uncounted articles of merchandise
has fallen siEce the wiseacres of the
anti-republican parties and factions de-
clared that poor men could never hope
to pay Mckinley bill prices for the
necessaries of life. Best of all, the
wages of workingmen have risen, when
the democrats counted confidently on
sharp changes in the opposite direction.
Nothing happens as the Cassandras OF
the free trade press said beforehand
that it would and must. In most cases
the facts are too plain, moreover, to be
concealed or lied about successfully
Yet such is the hardness of the nations
heart that the American people go on
their prosperous way rejoicing in good
business and never shedding tear for
the woes of unhappy politicians, whose
stock in trade is the prophesying of

Facts are daily fighting the battles of

as if every argument of the enemies of

excess of exports over imports was

Then the free traders proclaimed in

was not a sign of national prosperity,
as plain people had supposed, but q
proof of heavy foreign Indebtedness
and serious drain upon our resources.
They pointed with pride to England as

duplicity and takes the readiest and
most effective means at hand to protect
itself. 1t closes up its lines. directs it's
batteries at the anti-snappers, and
stands ready to defend itself from all
assaults, whether secret or open. In
doing this, of course, Tammany has to
abandon Cleveland, and he is thus cut
off from an element whose support fur
nishes him with his only chance of car
rying New York.
Under such circumstances it will be
seen that the peril of the democracy in
New York is indeed grave. Without
the utmost harmony in the party ranks
it can by no possibility secure the cleo
toral vote of that state. In presiden-
tial years the state is notably close.
whichever side carries it, Harrison's
lead in it in 1888 being only $4,000 and
CIeveland's in 1884 being but 1,047.
Even the most ardent democrat this
year has not counted on plurality
greater than $4,000 or 5000 out of 8
total vote which will reach nearly
100000 With Tammany either luke
warm or hostile the democracy is
doomed. as the friends of the national
ticket are aware, yet by recklessness
and perversity which is marvellous and
unaccountable the inner circle of the
candidates supporters are bringing
about this very state of things. Tam
many has again been assaulted in the
house of its supposed friends, and the
old factional strife is renewed. There
is possibility, to be sure, that truce
may be patched up and that the open
hostility of the wigwam to the ticket
may be averted, but the probabilities
do not point that way. The situation
of the democracy in the decisive state
must cause the most serious apprehen-
sion TO Mr.. Cleveland. If he loses the
vote of New York his defeat is inevita-
BILE and overwhelming, and in the pres
ent situation he can hardly resist the
conclusion that for this year at least
the state is irrevocably lost to his party.
