A tramp is a poor man without a
wife to support him. The Democracy
is u poor party without q leader to
guide it out of the wilderness of woes
in which it is now hopelessly and help
lessly %entangled. OF the two unfortu-
nate and dreary situations the tramp
has the best of it.
Its sins of commission and omission,
considered in their direct relation to
the overwhelming disasters that have
so recently overtaken it, paralize the
most sanguine and stout hearted Demo.
crat when he feels the Presidential
fever creep up his spinal column. He
is constrained to regard politics as a
mesh of live wires whose volts mean
for him immediate humiliation.
The Democrats are a unit in cpposi-
ton to Protection and in their warfare
upon American industries. At least it
is the claim of the free trade wing that
no good and true Democrat can endorse
any principle that bears the least re.
semblance to McKinIeyism. But when
it comes to the silver issue and other
trivialities they are a regular Irish
wake, every fellow, who is not holding
a shattered nose to a battered face, is
knocking down and dragging out in
the exhilerating style of our friends
from the Emerald Isle.
1t is not a threat of rupture, but an
actual condition of chaotic disorders
and ~irreconcilable a%ntagonisms, that
confronts the Democratic party.
The Cleveland administration has
disappointed everybody ave the small
circle of worshippers that hover around
the throne of power, and aided by
frosts, %droughts, fires, cyclones and
usury filchers, has we'll nigh wrecked
the country. Every fellow has his
W peculiar way of explaining the
trouble and his own peculiar plan of
escaping from the dilemma. And
hence this interminable mass of irri
tating contradictions, these doleful la.
mentations, this gibbering lunacy.
these madhouse shrieks, this bitter, un.
ceasing war of elimination and recrimi-
nation in which every silver man and
anti silver man is either q horse thief
or a murderer.
Rent, ruptured, torn and SHREDDED,
every man with a different policy, but
every n attempting TO obscure the
real issues and deceive the voters, and
yet with no eclipse upon the common
sense and discernment of the people
and another Presidential election in the
immediate future.
The country is Frustrated and filled
with financial ruin, the prices of farm
products are tumbling, tumbling, tum-
bling, the banks hold the money and
the rates of interest are rising, rising,
a night of s~tarless gloom broods over
every industry, and every intelligent
man knows that the curse of Demo-
cratic disagreement has brought
these unprecedented misfortunes upon
us.
The activity of capital is confined
solely to the filling of placed orders.
