Democratic papers are now publishing
Bourke Cockran's Speech made in 1888,
why Cleveland Should be Elected"
Why not publish, side by side, his later
peech made in Chicago in 1922
Senator Hill is quoted as talking to a
number of Democratic delegates returning
from Chicago as to the result. They were
praising the courage of the convention in
substituting the free trade plank, and
Dragging of what benefit it would be to
the party. Hill listened quietly and then
dryly remarked: YES, the result Of that
plank is that you have turned every factory
in the United States into a Republican

Harpers' Weekly, Cleveland Mug
wump paper, says Exit David B. Hill"
When the fiery Bourke Cochran said to
the Democratic National Convention "the
soldier voters Of the state of New York, Of
whom there are % 900 at least Democratic,
will not support the nomination of Mr..
Cleveland" that gallant Democratic
soldier, Gen. Sickes, arose, and waving the
crutch, which is his badge of honor,
exclaimed amid the Kisses of the Mug
wumps. mo, no; never" 1t is not
wonder that no Union soldier was put upon
the Democratic ticket? The hissers
wouldn't have it.
The procession has started in Jersey. Its
ranks should be swollen by rascals of the
same stripe in this state A stuffed ballot
box is at one end of the line and the
penitentiary, with suit of clothes bearing
Tammany's trade mark is at the other
end. The summary sentence of twenty
ex-election officers, who had been con-
victed of participation in the infamous
election frauds of 1889 by Judge Lppin-
colt in the Hudson County General Ses-
sions Court, presents a phase of. Jersey
justice worthy of imitation throughout the
country. Keep the procession moving

A distinguished Massachusetts, Mug
wump, Charles Francis Adams, in a maga-
zine article, denounces the soldier vote, snd
says in his own experience he has seen.
every dead beat and malingerer every
hummer, bounty jumper and suspected de-
! serter whom he had ever known or heard
of rush to the front as the greedy claimant
of public bounty" 1t is not a new thing
} for the confederates of the South to de-
nounce Union pensioners, but it is new
thing to have the Mugwumps surpass them
n their denuncistion of the Union soldier
as bounty jumper, tramp and deserter Is
it because Gen. Sickles, that manned DEM
ocratic Union veteran, declares that 25,OOO
Democratic Union soldiers in New York
state refused to vote for Cleveland in 1888
and will refuse to vote for him now2
Perhaps D. B. Hill is tired of his pro-
prietorship of the sentence, 81 am Dem
ocrat"
If Baby Mckee and Baby Ruth are to

be required.
"Barnum's circus and the Democratic
convention in Chicago during the same
week." The Windy City is certainly
getting its share of excitement.
Figures don't lie,' but it is only a
question of time when the Democrats will
realize that they made mistake in count
ing.
"a cyclone struck the Democratic Wig
, wan in Chicago and damaged it badly"
, The next breeze, few months hence, will
sweep their party "out of sight"
