Whose advice has he the President
recognized None: but that Of the boot
licks and sycophants VINO have craWIee
on their knees for the crumbs of patron:
age and betrayed their constituents fol
the Offices in his gift.
In the entire history Of this country
the high office Of President has never
1sbeen 50 prostituted and never has the
appointing POWER been 50 abused.
Claiming to be the APOSTLE OF civil ser
vice reform, he has debauched the civil
service by making appointments only Of
those whose sponsors would surrender
their manhood and with bated breath
walk with submissive head in his pres
ence. With relentless purpose he has
ignored his oath Of office t, uphold and
obey the law, and has paid out gold in -s
stead Of coin and issued bonds to buy
more gold, by both actions overriding
the law, and giving no heed to the inter-
ests Of any but moneyed friends 7 might
say his owners or partners.
While to this 4besotted tyrant coin has
come to mean gold alone, be can not BY
his mere ipse dlSits change the law of
this land and prevent the plain meaning.
Of the English language.
The repeal Of the Sherman Law, which
was the first point Of attack of the sun-=
holy alliance was only accomplished
through the. aid and in conf junction with
a majority Of the Republican Senators.
This Democratic President accom-
pllshed what was not possible for any.
Republican Executive under the scircum-s
stances to have brought about. A change.
of the party in power had left 4 large
number Of offices in his gift with Which

In discussing the honest meaning Of
parity Of gold and silver in the Sherman
law he said
The object was to have them assist.
each other, to hold silver up by holding
gold down, and an honest Secretary Of
the Treasury, who should have resigned
his office rather than submit to the die
tation Of a besotted chief, would have
paid out silver to protect the Treasury
from the gold gamblers aud bond gamb-.
Iers, as the law and his oath of office re-
quire. No wonder the Senator from
Massachusetts feels warranted IN tWit-
ting us wiffrthe decay Of Southern states
manship and charging US with dishones-
tv. He charges it, however, in another
connectlon,@ and as aiding and abettlng
this Judas from Kentucky, who. after a
brilliant career Of twenty years and more
as the leader and champion sof the silver
forces, has IN lis old age come to- this
pitiful pass. and then to think that the
indictment thus brought against a whole
section should have SO much co Tor Eoi
