This blank of the Republican State
platform was constructed somewhat
after the fashion OF crazy-quilt in
this, that it is composed Of several dis
tnct and inharmonious subjects, fitted
together III a queer sort Of way to
make gaudN appearance. If there
were 10 other objection to it than the
oIe just indicated We might we'll for
bear 10 comment upon it; but as it em-
bodies, 80 far as quoted, not single
accurate statement, we will saw and
SPLIT il. 1t Is astonishing that such
glarng ptrversious OF the truth should
find a place in the formal uttertuces of
a Political party. But there they are,
aud the men VINO put them there must
either have been ignorant that the
statements thus made were untrue, or
else, knowing them to be untrue, they
deliberate ~ incorporated them in their
pla form with intent to deceive the
voters OF the state. If tue authors of
the platform were ignorant that the
statements We have quoted were I'M
true, no better reason could be advauc-
ed to demou~'r,tc the ncapacity Of the
platform builders to govern the psople
If Maryland If, however, knowing
those ~tatcment, to be untrue they de-
iIbelateiy made them intending them
TO be believed as true, then, these plat
form builders have themselves shown
their uufituc~- To be entrusted with pc
litcal power; because one who will re-
sort to deception to gain power will
misuse that power when gained We
will not pause to consider which horn
of this dilemma these gentlemen
should bang themselves on, because it
i not within Tie scope OF our present
purp st to do so; but wc viii content
ourselves with a simple exposure of the
