Under this head the ST. Louis Daily
Chronicle speaks Of the union effected
between the Cleveland Democrats and
the Wall Street Republicans as fol
lows:
The fusion betwcc the Wall Street
Republicans and the Cleveland Demo-
Gratis means IL great revolution in
American politics. The time has
come for the break -up Of parties as
they were formed on The lines Of Civil
War sectionalism. and III forming Il
fusion with the Wall Street Htpul-
lic:ns in order to command IL majority
against his own party platform, CleT"-
land has forced lsallca to immaculate
settlement. The next tonr year, Will
witness changes III American politics
that will oItn the way free and fair for
the 10th century.
In one sense the sectional issue
forced by Mr.. Cleveland. with II solid
East behind him, is ii great misfortune.
1t will be Il misfortune III the same
sense when he rcDUuiatcs the Neal
tariff reform plank III the Democratic
platform, and forces II bill drawn on
the lines of the Cleveland resolution
which the national convention rcpu-
dated. 1t is II monrniul spectacle to
soc ii great party BETRAYED in the h"ur
il hoped to be most useful to the cn,in-
try and the world. There viii he
widespread suffering III the Valley
States and among the debtor and
poorer classes everywhere. ~ Il result
OF the control of our government by
the New York and London bankers.
But in spite Of it All every patriotic
American has reason to rrIoicc 1T the

fail to mean II free and forever united
America witt. the valley States iii con

Tie Civil War Is over. I'll" next
four Years will see the las. vcstigcs o:
Civil War politics. The South can n"

racv III bull,loZing the South
The m'lSsc. in both the West and
South are ready to come together for
their common right, and they are
ready to ,irfeat and ,lamplr any party
that bc,ravs them.
The West went with the South
against Harrison. 1t did it granlly
ana nobly. Notices. grandly and no.
bly, will the South rally to the West
against Cleveland. now that he has
attacked the people of the Valley ut
the point of their most vital weakness
tine immense debit that has been i'm
posed on them by discriminating lrgis-
lation.
Against the Tory policy Of demonc-
thing silver, the West and South will
come up together in irresistible force.
The next Congress will not have a
dozen dcmonrtizers in it from west of
the mountains. They will he most
ruthlc,sly slaughtered and no one
will stop to ask what party they claim
t. belong to.
The i>>t,c Is squarcly joined and on
ii the American Union will h,, fully
restored. The old Amcrirani>m will
come back. We will be trccr and
more prosperous than any people ever

hold of the plutocrats. the money
lenders and the Tories. We vii! re-
store the government Of. for and hv

ar"usc for rejoicing among patriotic
Americans than the onenness of the
ltaguc between John Sherman ANA
Grover Cleveland to secure thr de

li>hmcnt OF .hr British Tory gold
standard against or people. For ii
means iha: our people will break down
the lines OF the sectional politics OF the
Civil War and come together us Amer
