What a Democrat Thinks of the Tactics Of
HIS Party.
The Hon. John Patrick Hopkins, Dem
ocrat, formerly mayor of Chicago does
not believe thar the Democrats will
make any votes out of their shrek and
gibber about the conduct of the war.
"Mr Hopkins does not think COM
plants against the war department
amount to much" says a washington
dispatch, printed by the Chicago Inter
Ocean. "These complaints" he says,
"are ceasing to attract much attention
in the west, and the EFFORT to make po-
liticai capital cut of them Is simply
helping to keep the war as an issue be-
fore the people, and naturally helping
the Republicans, because the war has
been a great success" Mr.. Hopkins
believes that the Democrats are max
ing q. great mistake and playing into
their opponents hands: ut looks to me
like Republican year, and the DEM
ocrats are helping TO make It such by
keeping the war before the people as
the only issue. It is never good politics
to attack the most successful thing an
administration has done, and think
most people, WlllIOut AcGaAu " POH-
tics, regard the war as the most sue
cessful thing the Mckinley adminlstra-
ton has handled"
The crazy scheme Of discrediting the
administration for its conduct OF a
brilliantly successful war, in which
great and enduring results have been
obtained at q remarkably small cost Of
human life or suffering, has already
fallen fiat. The good sense and the pa
trlotlsm of the people reject the pre-
posterous paradox which the eenmies Of
the administration, aided by a few call
low correspondents and a few soft sem
tlmentalIsts, have been trying to es-
tablish. To punish an administration
for victory Is a task worthy of the cpl
leptlc Journals, but otherwise fncon-
ceiyable. With a faulty equal to that
OF their predecessors OF 1864, a portion
Of the Democratic party has underta-

No DlsaRection In the Ranks OF the Mar

TO the Editor OF the Intelligencef.
SIR:-The impression seems to have
been sent abroad that Marshall county
Republicans do not have the friendly
feeling for Captain Dovener they had
in 1886. This is not correct, so for as
our uelghborhcod is concerned. Captain
Dovener will not lose a Republican vote
IN this section of Marshall. We realize
that Captain Dovener is a part OF the
administration of William Mckinley,
which we consider has been first class
in every particular We believe that a
vote against Captain DoVener is a vote
in favor of free silver and free WOOL
We have had dose Of the last nam
ed free article and will take no more,
thank you!
We realize that vote in favor OF Mr.,
Blair is vote in favor OF putting US
back to the unhappy days OF 1898 and
1894, when thousands of American la
borers were thrown out Of employment
and made dependent upon charity lor
the common necessaries Of life.
We realize that a vote in favor OF
Captain Dovener Is a vote in favor OF
prosperity and against calamity and
despair. We realize that Captain Dow
ener represents that party whose prir-
ciples have disslpated the dark clouds
of adversely which have hung over this
country like a pail, and while
ours Is a strictly farming com
munity, we believe that the great in
dustries Of this country are so closely
knit together that It Is impossible 20
destroy one great industry without
Gripping the others to great extent,
and that II we enact laws in this coun-
try that decrease the work and the
wages of our mechanics and artisans,
we will lessen their ability to buy our
farm products We know It Is to our
interest to support Captain Dovener be-
cause he stands for principles that have
made this the greatest nation the sun
ever shone upon to-day. Hurrah for
DoVener!
