Semi Omctal Declaration Of the Adj.
ministratiOn.
Washington, July 16.-The Evening
Star says: Assistant Secretary Ham.
lin. of the treasury department., gave
out short statement to-day, in ex-
PLANTATION Of his position with regard
to the Democratic platform and nom-
nations. Inasmuch MS Mr.. Hamlin
represented the administration forces
Mt the Chicago convention, and hes
been in freqI6nt Consultation WITH
Secretary Carlisle over the political
situation since the adjournment of the
convention, the statement made by
him will undoubtedly be accepted by
many as the semi-ofhcial declaration
Of the position Of the sound money
men Of the administration. This Inn
preston is further strengthened by
the belief that Mr.. Hamlin has seen
President Cleveland since the adjourn
ment of the convention. He spent
several days ut Marion. near Gray
Gables, on his way back to Washing
ton from Chicago. The statement re-
ferred to is as follows:
mo political issue is involved in the
coming election. The question to be
determined is far deeper and more
vital. The perpetuity Of republican
institutions has been threatened.
Every loyal citizen should ally himself
against the forces which controlled tho
Chicago convention-forces Of lawless.
ness which are inconsistent with the
maintenance Of the republic. Hence
forth there should be no Republican,
no Democrat. but union of loyal cit
liens against til, combined forces Of
reputation and disorder. Whenever
this dangerous element has been
stamped out at the polls by an indig-
nant people, we can again divide and
discuss those political questions which
for generations have kept alive the
two great political parties"
