Is it any wonder that the Democrats
of the country are dissatisfied with the
Cleveland Administration? We defy
any of the Presidents apologists to
point to single act since his election
where he has shown any gratitude to
to the party that has so greatly hon
ored him. From the day of his inaug-
aration when he slapped Democracy
squarely in the face by appointing u
Republican to the highest Office N his
gift, up to the present, he has always
turned his back on the party and party
workers, and to-day there are nine
Republicans to one Democrat in the
federal service. This, taken in con-
nection with his action on the silver
question and his refusal to act on the
tariff. is certainly sufficient to ruffle
the feelings of the most even temper
ed Democrats. We repeat the ques-
ton: is it any wonder that Democrats
are dissatisfied, and many of them
went fishing last Tuesday?

SOME of the Republican leaders want
to twist the result of last weeks cleo
tons into s'a victory for protection. -
Such a statement is the merest non
sense and scarcely worthy of contra
diction or REPUTATION. Every one
knows that the people of this country
last year declared in laundering tones
for a radical reduction of the tariff.
As yet, nothing in that line has been
offered them, and they still demand a
reform in the duties on importations.
The disregard of the peoples demands
on the silver question was the only ma
tional issue that entered into the late
contests, and Mr.. Cleveland aud his
eastern cohorts received a well-merit-
ed rebuke. Let us have the free and
unlimited coinage of silver; a reduc-
ton of the the tariff to revenue basis;
and there will be no more Republican
victories.

Ohio, in convention assembled, by one
hundred majority, placed Free Coin
age plank in its platform. Its candid
ate allowed himself to be dragged off
his platform and placed in the position
of repudiating it. Defeat was the re-
suit. In 1892, on platform that de-
clared for Free Coinage as fully as it
did for Tariff Reform, victory was
won by the Democracy in that State.
In 1898, after the pledges of the party
had been repudiated, so far as silver
was concerned, defeat again came to
the Democracy. The only candidate of
prominence in the whole election that
the party was able to pull through was
O'Farrel, of Virginia, who was an out
and-out Free Silver man, and as against
a party that was avowedly the friend
of silver, his election was only rendered
possible by Republican apathy.
Many Democrat said to himself,
whats the use of my voting9 When
Democrats win a victory, it amounts
to nothing. Here are men, like Voor-
hees of Indiana, who have spent their
lives in denouncing Wall Street; yet as
soon as the issues are joined, they I'M
blushingly take the side of the Wall
Street plutocracy. They never intend
ed to give us Free Coinage, and they
are no more sincere about Tariff Re-
form. / think there is more money to
me in shocking corn to-day than in go
ing to the election 1t is this class of
men who came to us in go and '92, be-
cause they believed that we would give
them relief. Woe to us if we double
the tale of brick for them. Let us
close our ranks and fight forward.
Let the Tariff be reformed on the
lines laid down fin the platform, &C
cording to the Western Interpretation.
Let all bond schemes be defeated.
Let Free Coinage bill be passed.
Let's get together on strictly plat
form lines: with the administration, if
we can; without it, if we must.

Criticism.

WE take from the jefferson Democra,
the following:
s.If ono half that is being said about
President Cleveland by his critics is
true, he is the most remarkable man
that this country has ever produced.
This is admitted by all to be a great
country, that has produced and devel-
oped many great men; but Cleveland is
being placed in a pinnacle far above
all others. 1t has always been con-
ceded that he directs the affairs of his
own office to suit himself, and is sub
ject to no outside interferenGes or i'm
fuence: and now he is credited with
absolute control of both houses of con-
gress, and the way he does it is the
mystery. He does not storm and threat
like General Jackson, nor does he re-
sort to any of the milder persuasive in
fluences of the ordinary politician.
He merely sits back on his dignity, in
the privacy of his sanctum, and indi-
ident's message" what he wants done.
and remains firm and immovable until
his suggestions are complied with. In
the meantime he is unapproachable by
any who wish to secure a compromise,
or softening of his mandates. We
do not believe he has or exercises any
such power. but it is certainly not to
his discredit if he does. We prefer to
believe that the congressman and SEN
ators act on their own judgment and
are governed by their own ideas of
@ho. hi - 20
We do not believe that such men as
Senators Palmer, of Illinois, Mills of
Texas, Voorhees, of Indiana, Hill of
New York, and many others of equal
reputation and but little less promi-
nence, can be bulldozed, coerced or
persuaded into violating their own
consciences or acting contrary to
their own sense of duty. 1t is our
opinion that the aforesaid critics are
overeaching themselves. Iftheir crit
icisms have any effect it will only be
to convince the people that Mr.. Cleve-
land is much greater man than they
supposed him to be-"
AS to Mr.. Cleveland, we might, if
space permitted, show many instances
wherein he dictated to the members of
Congress the course they must pursue
il they would ''stand in" with the ad-
His chief factotum, Mr.. |
Carlisle, conferred every day with
them, and told them what the Presi- |
dent would agree to, and what was dis
pleasing to him: and his wishes were
delivered in a manner more becoming
a teacher In the school room to his pu-
pills, than in an Executive comforting
with coordinate branches of govern
ment. But we will not elaborate on
this just now, as we desire to pay more
reference to the Democratic Senators
whom it processes to believe cannot be

The Cause and the Remedy.

II is worse than folly not to look the
present situation fairly in the face-to
shut our eyes to the principal cause O.
our disaster. and, in order to stand In
with the administration, give every
cause but the true one for it. The fail
ure of the administration to place the
machinery of the Government in the
hands of the party nominally in power
is only matter of contributory negli
gence. 1t Is nonsense to say that feaI
of tariff legislation caused our defeat.
The parties who give this as a reason
have, from the first, been opposed to
Tariff Reform, and are now DESTROYS OF
retaining the advantage the Mckinley
bill confers upon them, if they can.
The great cause of our disaster-that
which contributed more than anything
else to the defeat of the party-was go
ing back to the Gold Standard of 1873.
in defiance of party traditions and in
the face of party pledges.
There was no gain of Republican
votes-no Democrat voted the Repub-
lican ticket. Ii. then, the Republican
vote is no larger, and the Populists and
Prohibitionists have not increased in
strength, there is only one other ex-
PLANTATION: Democratic voters refused
to go to the polls and endorse the poll
cy o. the present administration. They
also did not desire to leave their party ::
the only course open to them was to go
fishing. and they went. There are just
as many Democrats in this country to-
day as there were year ago.
1t is with feeling of contempt one
hears it said, IF Congress had only re-
pealed the Sherman act sooner than it
did. disaster would not have overtaken
u.s..
According to these gentlemen, the
people of the country are so anxious to
have their debts increased that when
party has been in power eight months
and delays for nearly that length of
time to increase their burdens by one
third, they Indignantly turn it out!
This is precisely what the repeal of the
Sherman law, without remedial legis-
lation, has done.
The truth is, that Democrats lost
heart. Take, for instance, the Demo-
Gratis of Ohio. They have looked upon
John Sherman as their arch enemy-as
the exponent of everything they detest-
ed in politics. What must have been
their feelings at seeing him as leader
in fight made by Democratic adj
against the rest of the
party?
In 1891, the Democratic party of

GENTLE reader, have you observed
that this Democratic President of ours
is without a single champion among
the great Democratic papers in the
nation to-day? True, he has some
apologists but no champions. and to
the many complaints that come from
the Democracy all over the land, they
attempt to smooth matters, by promis-
ing a change in the line of action for
the future; not single one attempts
TO defend the Presidents course; it adj
mits of no defense. 1t is time we had
a man in the White House who is in
sympathy with his party and needs no
apologies in the house of his friends.

The Republican organs say that the
hard times are occa stoned because OF
a ..fear of free trade" OF course, no
to such a ridiculous assertion. Every
one knows that since the enactment of
the Mckinley Bill, which is supposed
to be the ideal of protection, times
have been continually growing harder
and money becoming scarcer in this
country. No; the people want no
Mckinley tariff; they have demanded
reform and will have it.

If the elections of last week had
been favorable to Demo cracy how
quickly the Cleveland worshippers
would have declared that the result
was an endorsement of the a 1ministra-
ton. But as it is the pie counter
crowd are at a loss what to say: the
truth is, however, it was a mighty
protest from the people against the
acts of Cleveland and the Wall street
crowd.

We are pleased to note that Bro. E.
c. Waterman of the Poplar Bluff Citi-
gen is staunch advocate of free silver
and sternly opposed to the Cleveland
and Wall street decentralization scheme.
There are so many men editing papers
in Missouri who are afraid to express
an opinion contrary to the st. Louis
Republic. or against any officer high in
power, that the arrival of an independ-
ent man like Bro. Waterman among
us is as refreshing as an April shower.

have, and the masses have a perfect
right to enter their disapproval in no
uncertain tones.

The Greenville journal makes mis-
statement when it says that Cleveland
was assisted by the bulk of his party
in securing the repeal of the Sherman
law. A majority of the Democratic
senators were opposed to repeal from
first to last, and when it comes to the
voter. nine out of every ten in the land
were against it.

STATUE OF JEFFERSON.
AN APPROPRIhTE MEMORIAL TO
THE FATHER OF DEMOCRACY
WiIl DO Placed In the Rotunda Of the Now
Hotel Which is TO Bear His Name.
Valentine IL the Sculptor.

In the rotunda OF the new Ho-
tel Jefferson will stand marble
statue of Thomas Jefferson. the
work Of the well-known sculptor, Mr.. Ed
ward V. Valentine. Work upon the statue
will be commenced very shortly.
There has been rumor that the statue
had been ordered for several days past.
but no positive confirmation could be got
ten until late last night Mr.. Valentine
when seen would make no statement in
regard to the matter. but from other
sources information was obtained which
confirmed the rumor a model Of the
statue has been made and accepted by
Major Ginter. and the marble out Of
which the statue VIII be made will soon
be on its way to Richmond. This is a
happy idea, that the image Of jefferson
should stand In the building named after
him
There is no question that the
new hotel will be literally patron
lied. for there is a large class
Of people who will always have the
best no matter what the cost may be.
No better location could have been Sc
lected for "A hotel site. Situated In the

the jefferson will soon rear its lofty
height, adding one more TO the imposing
structures which are making Richmond
one Of the most beautiful cities in the
Union.
The excavation for the hotel,
being made on the rear Of the
site fronting on Main street, is nearly
completed and the earth has been advan-
tageously used in filling the enormous
hole at the corner Of Cary and Jefferson
streets. The contract for the granite
foundation has been awarded 10 Mr..
James Netherwood, who will commence
work at once. and he hopes to com
plete this part Of the building in about
four months. The foundation walls are
very massive, and will cost alone about
$4,000
The architects Of the jefferson. Messrs
Carrere x Hastings. of New York, were
I'm the city Monday.
This hotel, when completed, win be
a credit 10 Richmond and the South.
The men who started the enterprise never
do things by halves and the jefferson
will be second to no hotel south OF Ma
son e. Dixon's line. The building will
combine beauty with solid comfort and
elegance with durability. The foundation
OF massive granite will defy the march
