Democrats were the distributors

''More than eighteen hundred
years ago Rome was governed by
three men at the0end of that re-
public. One was Caesar. They
were all of noble blood. And we,
too, have our triumvirate- Lin

fortunately, neither of them can
boast a high descent. There sue

fiddle when Rome was burning.
We also have our emperor, Lin

Well, a man who has been the
standard-beare of the Democratic
party for three successive, times,
and elected twice, has got a pretty
good title to Democracy. But the
hard times of Cleveland's admins
tration were not due to Cleveland
as a person. They were due to
the Democratic party, and the
general distrust which the people
had of that party. Capital became
fearsome and industry stopped;
general depression followed the
announcement in November, 1892,
that the Democratic party was in
control of all branches of the gov
eminent.
