Democratic Reorganization.

A news dispatch conveys the highly
important information that Mr.. CleYe-
land is contemplating moving from
New Jersey to Massachusetts SO that
he can be in close touch with Banker
Benedict and others of his exclusive
circle for the purpose of discussing
and formulating plans for the reorgan-
~ization of the Democratic party.
Grover, Benedict, aad Whitney, the
tailors of Tooley Street, will HE them
selves to Buzzard's Bay, and thence
issue their pronunciamento to the
great Democratic party, telling them
to re-employ agents who have always
proved false to the rank and file, and
who after twice supporting Republi-
can platforms are now unwilling to
define the democratic principles" by
which they would agree to stand.
These fungi who were cut off the
party ship four years ago are now
seeking to gain control of the party
helm and run her into Wall street
straits. They want to bride the old
Democratic mule and make said mule
pull the heavy burden of the stuffed
prophet and his satraps.
''Let US return to old-fashsoned
Democracy" say these political brig
ands. Let US see. Did Cleveland's
last administration have anything to
do with Democratic defeat in 1896 and
1902 1t was the most Injurious and
at the same time most irritating argu-
ment advanced by the Republican
party in both the campaigns of 1896
and 1900 that the Democratic party
was responsible for the injurious con-
sequences of Mr.. Cleveland's admins
tration. In vain was the rejoinder
made that Mr.. Cleveland had betrayed
his party and its principles, deserted
the interests of the rank and file and
become the agent of the Whitney-Ben-
edict type, and whether fairly or not,
the voters held the Democratic party
responsible for the false agent who had
betrayed its principles.
Do these political outcasts think the
people have short memories? Now
they want US to recognize on Cleve-
Landscape lines and repose trust in the
authors of defeat.
But this opera boufe performance
will prove a complete failure. In fact
it has almost died aborning. Intelli-
gent Democrats and all others can dis
Germ no difference in principle between
Cleveland Democracy and Hannaite
Republicanism, and we predict the
American people will soon begin to
realize that the Democracy which has
stood by its historic principles during
two campaigns is the true party of the
people.
Over six million unpurchasable yot-
ers will stand firm and the reorganizers
will have to reorganize themselves be-
fore they receive any sort of recoRn nj
ton. 1t may be a great test of endur-
ance and courage, but our people are
a fighting people and in their firm con-
victions they are not easy to stampede.

The Worcester (Mass.) Spy prints a
letter from a soldier serving in the
Ninth United States Infantry in China,
In which he says: s'If l could have

to the United States a rich man, easily
worth from $25, 900 to $50, 900, but /

as possible. 1 sold nearly 1000 worth
of loot. / had silver bullion galore,
beautiful and costly furs of all kinds,

of precious tones aud jewels, but

pose of it as quickly as / could. / sold

5000, Mexican money, equal to 800 in

days that / would like to have all the
wealth / could carry, and here is a
case of where I have it. But it avails
me nothing. as the poor enlisted mar
gets nothing out of the affair but hard
tack and with but one-fourth rations at
that. Many of the officers have secur-
ed enough out of the affair to be rich
for life, and the higher the rank the
more loot they got. When you read
