WORSE THAN INFAMOUS.
The Democratic Party Deserving of Com
pIete Obliteration.

The Democratic Party Deserving OF Com
pIete Obliteration.
From the letter of President Cleve-
land to Mr.. Catchings, of Mississippi,
bearing date August 27, it seems that
the democratic party is indeed
meaner organization that it's most bit
ter enemies have ever accused it of be-
ing The president uses the following
paragraph in his letter:
The trusts and combinations-the commu-
nism Of pelf-whose Vaccinations have pre-
vented US from reaching the success we deserV-
ed, should not be forgotten or forgiven. We
shall recover from our aStonlshlnent at thelr
exhibition Of power, and If then the question
Is forced upon whether they shall submit 10
the free legislative viii Of the peoples repre-
sentatves, or shall dictate the laws
which the people must obey, we will accept
and settle that issue as one involving the In
tegrity and safety Of American institutions.
In a careful analysis Of the torego-
ING one cannot avoid seeing a verltable
Jekyll and Hyde duality. The presl-
dent in this sentence arraigns the dem
ocrats Of the senate as guilty of machl-
nations and combinations deserving OF
such terrible consequences that they
shall never be forgotten or forgiven.
The crime committed by these demo-
Gratis Of the senate is none other than
an agreement upon schedule of rates
which divides among them the
equities, the sugar trust thrown in.
Perhaps no living person knows more
about how the combines and trusts
managed this dicler with democratic
senators than does President Cleve-
land himself. Be that as it may, how
ever, he understands that crime was
committed, and he SO states in the
foregoing paragraph. We understand
the president. under the constitution,
has the prerogative Of correcting
wrongs and preventing frauds from
being practiced upon the people
through legislation, in the right OF
veto, which was placed in his hands
by the fathers Of the country. The
knotty problem to the reader of this
paragraph will be this: If the senate
is guilty Of passing the law, how can
the president escape just censure for
allowing such an enactment'to become
operative, when he has the power by a
single stroke of the pen to send il
DdcK 10 congress LOT COTIcCIIOu, dLucuu
ment. etc?
The infamies Of the present tariff
law as it goes upon the statute books,
carrying with it great crime and It's
consequences, the resulting indict'
ment must include the name of Grover
Cleveland as an accessory after the
fact.
It was fairly to be presumed that
Grover Cleveland's six years of execu
tive authority would have taught him
the impossibility Of fooling all the
people all the time, though he may be
able to fool a part Of the people part
Of the time; but this letter, which is in
the form Of an apology for his own
action in allowing this bill to become
law, only shows him as deserving a
greater degree of condemnation, for in
it he presents clear analysis of the
crime committed, and of the evil re-
suits which will necessarily attend
the execution of the democratic tariff

DEMOCRATIC APPROPRIATIONS.
The Record Broken by the Second Session
of the Fifty Third Congress-.

Inc Record Broken by the Second Session
of the Fifty Third Congress.
The session just closed is record
breaker in the matter of appropria-
tiOns, which are $500, 900, 900, more by
S27, 10000 than was appropriated by
the Fifty-first congress in it's first ses-
sion, which has been advertised to all
the world as the ''billion-dollar con-
gress," or the Reed congress-" Not
withstanding the democrats took from
the deserving soldiers Of this country
$29, 900, 900 in order to make this show
ing, they now stand charged with
making the most exorbitant appro-
priations for sectional purposes ever
known in the history of the govern
ment. The river and harbor bill is in
creased more than 11,0O0 900, to be
expended largely in the south. The
diplomatic and consular bill, for the
support of exconfederates abroad, is
Increased more than $4,000. The forti-
hcation bill, in order to find fat places
for democratic employees in coast de-
fense construction, is increased $780,
600. The Indian bill, by which more
democratic employees are fed and
clothed and housed, in violation of
civil service rules and civil service
methods than under all other bills
combined, is increased 81, Ats, 600.
Anyone who goes to the agencies in
the northwest will find the agent with
all his family nicely housed and shell
tered under civil service, his bonds
men and the friends thereof carrisd
and taken care of, while all the old
| familiar and tried employees of the In
dian school and Indian reform service
have been sent adrift. The post Office
bill is increased So, 232. 900, most OF
which comes from northern people, as
the south has failed to pay its proper
tiOnate share of the expense of run
ming the postal department since the
establishment of the government, to
the amount of from S3,000,000 to So
900, 900 per annum. The naval bill is
increased So, ,223, 900, because the navy
yards have been used as places of ref
uge for democratic strikers, who 9TH
erwise must haye had to march with
| Coxey's army"
| Of the reductions it is needless to say
much. They are found to be of such a
character as to take away employment
from worthy people who during these
stringent times are unable to find en-
ployment elsewhere Two thousand
have been turned loose in the city of
Washington by reason of democratic
economy" and intriguing. By the
time the campaign is closed, and the
| l.. i
investigation of appropriate in the
closed session of congress will have
been so thoroughly made, and the
democratic claims SO punctured and
understood that it will be hard for
their orators to endorse them before
| the people.

prosperity, and good morning to tariff

If ''perfdy" should do as well by the
people as "robber," the "dishonor"
will be borne. The people are accus-

tion.-Chicago Inter Ocean.
Is The Wilson-Gorman bill now
having gone into effect, and the prom
ises of the democratic party being full
filled, the farmers may now get ready
to sell their wheat at one dollar a
bushel, as promised in 1892. No fail
ure this time, gentlemen! Bring on
your wheatl The money is ready just
as soon as Mr.. Carlisle can negotiate
another fifty million dollars!
- There is but one notable fea-
ture of the Wilson-Gorman tariff which
is purely equita ble. Southern demo
Gratis, in the framing of the bill, en-
deavored to tax everyeo ody but them
selves. In view of the many mistakes
and errors which have crept into the
bill, it is not exactly known whether
they intended to insert the clause I'M
posing tax Of two cents on every
pack of playing cards. This revenue
which, according to the treasury esti
mates, will amount to about two mil
lion dollars annually, will come largely
] from the south.

A DARK SPOT.
Record of the Democrats in the Recent
Tariff Legislation.

Tariff Legislation.
President Cleveland In his national
apology for winking at the great
fraud which was eliminated on the
evening of August 81, the record Of
which shall stand as the darl1aspot in
the tariff history of the United StateA-
while feeling the sting of th4 infamy
of which he had become copartner,
utters the following sentences:
Il do not claim to be better than the masses
Of my party. nor do I wish to avoid any re-
sponSibility which, on account of the passage
of this law, l ought to bear as member Of the
democratic organization. Neither will per-
nit myself to be separated from my party to
such an extent as might be implied by my
veto of tariff legislation, which, though dis
appointing, is still chargeable to democratic
effort"
This confession of Grover Cleveland
is one of the most marked among the
sayings Of men who have been ex-
alted into high places by the suffrage
of the people. It is to be construed as
meaning that because Grover Cleve-
land has not the moral courage to
sign an infamous, disappointing tariff
bill, full of inaccuracies and crudities,
he therefore declares that he is no
better than the masses Of his party,
or, in other words, he declares that the
democratic party has no man in it
who is capable of rising above the in
famous trickery of the trusts and COM
bines who barter with democratic SEN
ators in tariff revision.
Oh, Shades of the Hermitage! Could
rn1nn from, tho ra1InO h0
heard this day, it would bring to mind
that there was once time when the
democratic party had in it one man
who dared to speak for the right in
the face of a confessed wrong.

The Middle Ground.

President Cleveland, in his letter OF
July, 1894, said: 1T is quite apparent aren't
that this question Of free raw material
doas not admit Of adjustment on any
middle ground" Once the president
vas wrong. The middle ground is dis
covered. It is that condition or place
where the democratic Gorman- wilson
tariff bill rests-the place OF perhdy
and dishonor, condition OF lnconslst-
anc;es and crudities, as described by
Grover Cleveland in his own words.
Tha trumpet of democracy in the cam
a;rn now before us is to sound the
Ear-crv or rally in order to take the
damocratic party off this middle
Ground. and place it on the assured
fraa-trade side of the question; but for
the present the party occupies the
middle ground indicated by the great

Party Name.

SAN Francisco, October 2.-Su-
perior Judge Seawell rendered de-
cision this morning in the action
brought against p A. Dolan and
other organizers of an alleged Popu-
list party, which put municipal
ticket in the field, to enjoin them
from using the name "Populist par
ty," and to enjoin the Registrar from
issuing certificate to Dolan The
action was brought by ]. Webster,
Peoples party nominee for Governor,
Adolph Sutro, the party's nominee
for Mayor, and others, who alleged
that Dolan's organization is nothing
more than "piece club F."
The court decided in favor of Do
Ian, declaring that no men or body
of men have the exclusive right to
the use of party name, and that
any other set of men could adopt the
same name and use it under the law,
and courts of equity have no right to
interfere. The court said there was
no such thing as proprietary right to
the name of political party.

OCTOBER 10, 1894

AS lcug ago as 1857 Macauley pre-
dicted that the day would come in
America when labor between half a
breakfast and the hope of half din
ner, would elect it's own legislators
and have things all its own way.
With all due Difference to the dis
tinguished Englishman, labor does
not yet appear to have been able to
work out it's salvation in the way in
dictated. 1t has not been successful
to any extent in being able to choose
it's own legislators, but is cajoled in
to voting for candidates of other par
ties, who pose as the workingman' S
friend, and then proceed to system
atically betray him. But when in
rare instances labor has sent its man
to Washington, he has been found
quite unable to rise superior to the
fatal environment of money kings
whose insidious and tempting ad-
vances it seems impossible for legis
lators to resist.
The money kings know this, and
being hedged about by enactments oil
their own dictation, they seize on Ia
boris loaf, and cut and slash it at
will, and if labor strikes, it is threat
ened with the rich mans law.
Lord Macauley's prediction will
not therefore be verified until labor
steers clear of both parties, and elects
men who will not betray it when
tempted by the plutocrat.
