COEBEL A STRONG AND PURE MAN
Defeated by Force and fraud, Killed For Making Con-
test Pearson Fairly Defeated to be Seated by Fraud

that ever contested an election. In that
case he would have wronged himself and
party if he had not contested.
The power Of corporations is great
They succeeded in putting ballot in the
box for every two and one-half inhabi-
tants in Ohio in the Presidential election
i'll that State in 1896; so that while the
Democrats had 100000 more votes than
were ever cast for any one party in the
State before, they We're themselves out
voted by $4,000 majority. If it was
wrong for Mr.. Goebel to contest, it is
equally wrong for Mr.. Pearson TO con-
test Mr.. Crawford's seat, yet no Republic
can paper has called him a rascal for do
ing so; nor called down imprecations
on the heads of the committee of Con-
gress that has declared him entitled to
the seat. Nobody doubts that he will be
seated, and yet few of us expect to see
as hard things said of him by Democratic
papers as those same papers have SAID
of Goebel, and not single Republican
paper between the oceans will ever by
implication reflect upon his moral and po-
Gtical integrity. Why this difference?
The cases are parallel. PeaTson's par
ty had the election machinery as did
Goebel's; both were defeated on the face
of the returns by almost exactly the same
relative majority; both contest. Here the
parallel ends. CraWtord's supporters
have not shot Pearson to death from
Crawford's offices or vicinity. If one or
two thousand Democratic mountaineerS
had boarded the train at the opening of
Congress and had gone to Washington
armed with Winchesters swearing to
''see Justice done" Crawford, and had
paraded the streets Of Washington with
see justice done" Crawford, and had
finally assassinated Mr.. Pearson on the
steps of the capitol, where he was going
under his lawful and constitutional right,
the parallel would be complete. But
who thinks they could have done such
thing? Grover Cleveland or even William
Mckinley would have had every solitary
man of such a mob behind the bars i'll
two hours after he set foot in Washing
ton. What did Cleveland do with even
the quiXotic COXey and his army? Tay-
icr had no desire to do such a thing. He
allows the mob to enter his executive
office: to try to overawe the legislative
body; to camp about; to menace every
body and everything till they shoot down
his competitor; then he trains his Cat
iings, not ON those men, and fixes ms
bayonets, not against their ingreSs and
egress, but on the Representatives Of the
people who seek TO meet in the halls for
he business of 4 sovereign State. lie
stops the officers bearing the mandates
of the courts and while protecting the
mob declares the peaceable and law
abiding CITY in n state of inSurrectlOn.
The work of that man Taylor Il hope /
