About as strong an arraignment of the
Administration as we have seen in some
time appeared recently in the New York
World, letter from Republican. who
declares his digust for President Mckinley
and announces that he will vote for Bryan
this year, of whom he says: He certainly
is an American; he is a man of energy
and integrity he is an orator of unequaled
power, and he is, best of all, a young man
with a back bone to him, made of solid,
strong bone, and not of chocolate eclair,
like good Mr.. McKinIey's spinal column
There will be no Standard Oil scandals, no
Cuban scandals, no Porto Rico disgrace, no

The Mckinley administration has been
one of scandals from Eagan and Alger to
Nicely and Rathbone. Every branch of the
service has its plumbers, and is submerged
in jobbery. From the feeding of soldiers
to the purchase of ships, and even the
enactments of Congress are clouded with
open charges of corruption. 1t is publicly
charged that Government Printing Office
employees paid big sums for favorable
legislation; that the postal clerks raised
100000 to buy legislation in their interest,"
and how much the bogus butter makers,
pneumatic tube promoters, the railroad
that carry mails. steamship subsidy men
and others have paid to Congressman will
probably never be known, but these few
facts are enough for the intelligent to
reason out an answer to the question
where do they get it?" when they see
Congressman, notoEiously possessed of no
means, spending money lavishly in enter
tanning and in securing their re-nomina
tions and reflections.

The Democracy of Gloucester county
was honored by the Democratic State Con-
vention last Thursday in the unanimous
election of one of its number as Delegate
at-Large to the National Democratic Con-
vention. The Democracy of Gloucester is
not SO numerous as we would like it to be-
but it is stalwart band and that fact
went far to gain for it the recognition and
honor at the hands of the Democracy OF
the State that it received in the choice OF
Hon. Thomas M. Terrell. Mr. Terrell is a
representative citizen, as we'll as stalwart
Democrat, hence the honor has more than
mere party significance. The South Jersey
Democracy will be encouraged and
strengthened by his choice.
