The Durham daily globe. (Durham, N.C.) 1889-1894, 1892-06-11
THE HAT a WINNER.

| cident: a man elected because of the
| glories of his grandfather who in the old
DAYS did a little fighting--such a man was
| chosen over the greatest statesman this
country has ever knOwn-and nominated
for the highest Office within the gift of
the American people. But will he get
the office? THE GLOBE hopes that he will
not. 1t hopes the democrats will not
make their usual fatal blunder and spring
some Unknown or some Impossible upon
the people who are ready to cut away
from the party which has just named a
cheap nin-compoop to lead it to success.
If GROVER CLEVELAND is nominated
he will sweep the country like a cyclone
he will 90 over it and through it like a
prairie fire-frying the fat out Of the cor
rupt and thieving band of federal office
holders who gagged the republican party
at Minneapolis and prostituted the prin-
ciples which underlie that organization.
Those employed agents Of HARRISON,
while preaching patriotism with the fer
vor Of an apostle, were snuffiing the odor
or plumber when they were made dele
gates to the convention, and upon their
arrival at Minneapolis drove close and
devilish bargains before they would de-
liver the goods which they had been in
structed by packed conventions to de-
liver.
The people will finally show the shrewd
demagogues of both parties that they will
no longer submit to the sacrifice Of prin-
ciple in order that the army of public
plunderers may continue in their defiant
sway. The people are weary Of such
things, and that is why the great parties
express so much concern regarding the
third party, which is building strongly
upon the rotten wrecks of the two parties
which have lived for thirty years-the
republican party growing more corrupt
and each year the democratic party max
ing its annual plumbers.
The cOrmOrants which followed the
HARRISON banner to Minneapolis tished
in the mud for what they claimed was
legitimate prey. They saw success and
spat their poisonous saliva upon it. They
saw a statesman who could lead them to
success and they trampled him underfoot
and picked up a mummy who was once
elected upon the record made by his
grandfather.
The G. O. p. will this year again howl
about the staunch old ship of republican,
ism which bore the nation brayely through
a sea of civil strife-but the thinking man
must remember that it landed upon the
shoals of individual shame.
The fat-fryers Of the party have com
mitted political suicide-they have scared
their consciences in defeating the popular
willard while they will present in this
campaign the spectacle Of SATAN shield
ing SHIT will do no good
1.-THE. democrats do not make their com
mon blunder when success for them is in
sight.
Had BLAINE been nominated the South
would have been glad-for in him they
recognize a statesman. 1t would have
quoted the factional fight which still de-
velops at times-because they know that
BLAINE is a great man and that HARRI-
SON is a small man. And so they will
grid up their loins and to a man will rally
to defeat the Hoosier-the professional
yet professed pious politician who urges
the force bill who throws out his bloody
shirt rOt-who will be showed under in
November
If the democrats do not make a blunder!
GROVER CLEVELAND is the the man
who can wrap HARRISON up in oil-HTLL
cannot touch him. Between HILL and
HARRISON, give us WEAVER or JERRY
SIMPSON, and if we can't get them ST.
JOHN would be better than either Of the
first named.
COLONEL POLK DEAD.
Col. L. L. Polk died this morning in
Washington City. This news was indeed
sudden, as it was only a few days ago
that the alliance leader was in North
| Carolina-well, cheerful and happy.
