eB The attempt of the democrats to
discredit the pension system is sur
vival of the spirit of similar attempts
on their part to discredit the soldiers
during the war, and the country will
rebuke it accordingly.-St Louis
Globe Democrat
The house has passed the urgent
deficiency bill and the amount appropri-
ated is S149, 4S3 larger than the measure
originally provided for. This is the way
in which the boasted democratic policy
of economy is being enforced-St
Louis Globe-Democrat.
eNT The house has added one more to
its already dangerously democratic"
majority by the sc eatipgo of Craig, of Penn
sylvania. He will be great accession to
their fore if he knows how to do as
little in as long time as the rest of
them.--Detroit Journal.
"a The innocence of the fox as to
vulpine practices would be wonderful
beside Senator David 3. Hill, who de-
clares that he is "such a new senator"
that really he has no knowledge of
what will be the democratic policy in
congress. He should join an educa-
tional campaign. Chicago Journal
eB There are 90 democrats and II re-
publicans opposed to the Bland free
coinage bill in the house. That makes
169 against and 1853 for the pernicious
measure If the canvass which has Just
been made is correct. and that gives a
majority of 6 against the bill If the
promoters will be afraid to trot it out.

1888 as a democratic measure has lin
gered too long in the rear, among the
camp followers, deserters and suffers"
He meant ex-Gov. Hill Really there
appears to be a most plentiful lack Of
harmony among democratic leaders

Speaking for the New York DEM
ocratic kickers at Hillism and Tam
manyism, the New York Times says:
They represent the real democracy of
the present and the future, which can,
and. if successful, will give the coun-
try the greatest possible benefits and
and secure them for generation The
issue between them and the Hill de-
mocracy is sharp and radical 1t must
be settled, and settled for theright, or
the party is doomed to another long
term of ignominiOus, because deserved,
defeats. Chicago Inter Ocean.
We are told by the democratic
press that th democratic leaders in
congress are waking up to the dan
ger of the passage of a free coinage
bill They are not againEt free coin
age. but they oppose it in a presiden-
tial year because its advocacy might
imperil democratic success in the great
state of New York. The democratic
leaders, strangely enough, propose to
resort to the obstructive tactics of the
so-called Gear Reed" and, wonderful
to relate, they propose to ask this re-
publican ''czar," whom they so bitterly
denounced. to help them by policy Of
obstruction to extrica.e the democratic
party from its unpleasant predicaanent
