Never before was such deed done by
an American President. Never was the
right to do it assumed by the Chief
Magistrate of free republic. 1t is a
blot ON the history of the United States,
an infamy for which Americans will

THE POLICY OF INFAMY.
Never before has an American eXeCu.
tive undertaken to stamp out republic
anism and to set up monarchy in any
part of the world. Never before, we
believe, has an American Presidcn,
issued orders for the assassination of a
free and successful Government. Never
before has any officer Of this Govern
ment undertaken, upon his sole respon
slblllty and without consulting Con
gress and the people, to decide the
destiny of foreign country in diplo
matte relations with ourselves. Never
before has President invited or com
manded his Cabinet advisers to assist
him in the odious business of setting III
again rotten and broken throne. -
