REPUBLICAN STAGNATION.
Present Leaders of the Party Are
Dismal Failures.

Dismal Failures.
The great majority Of the Republican
party used TO worship James G. Blaine
and the policies that he stood for He
favored reciprocity, especially with
South American countries, and in
speech at Wateryille, Me-, Aug. %,
1890, he said:
"Our great need is expansion.
mean expansion Of trade with coun-
tries where we can find profitable ex-
changes. We are rot seeking annexa-
ton Of territory Certainly we do not
desire it unless it should come by the
volition of people who might ask the
priceless boon of a place under the flag
of the Union. l feel sure that for
long time to come the people Of the
United States will be wisely content
with our present area and not launch
upon any scheme of annexation. At
the same time l think we should be
unwisely content if we did not seek to
engage in what the younger Pitt so
well termed annexation Of trade"
Inc LepuDiiCdu AedOeES LOudY are
distinctly opposed to just what Mr..
Blaine was striving for. He little
thought that within a few years a Re
publican president would be forcibly
annexing countries not in this hemi-
sphere and a Republican congress
would be standing pat and refusing to
ratify reciprocity treaties that McKin-
ley had arranged.
The Blaine Republican must, like the
few followers of Abe Lincoln that are
left, view with dismay the dismal fail
ure of their present leaders, who fear
to legislate on important matters, but
in place adopt a policy Of legislative
stagnation. Does any one believe that
Blaine would stand pat at the present
juncture?

I'm our own time ana our own way"
b Senator Lodge arrogantly puts it.
further postal Investigation Will be
undertaken In our own time ana
our own way" we Will attend to such
revision Of the tariff as may be neces-
sary. say the Republican leaders The
Republican platform, however, Goes not
indorse Senator. Lodge, or perhaps
when the senator wrote the platform
he thought it would be best to say as
little as possible about so uncomforta-
blesa subject as frauds and scandals
ana claim everything was all right any
way So the platform says:
"Our administration of tie Sreat de-
partments of the government las been
honest and efficient. and wherever
wrongdong has been discovered the
Republican administration has not hes
itated to probe the evil and bring Of
tenders to justice without regard to
party or political ties"
How honest and efficient the Repub-
lican administration has been is shown
by not only the pOstOffice frauds, but
by the land frauds, the department of
justice scandals, the Littauer glove
scandal, the Indian Territory scandals,
the Philippine scandals, the Porto Rico
smuggling scandals, the District Of Co
lumba scandals and other frauds and
scandals. III fact no department Of
the government is free from them, and
it is no wonder that now, even in their
own time and their own way, do the
Republicans care to publicly mention
them, much less allow a thorough in
vestigation. Some charged with per
petrating frauds are candidates for of
fee Oh the Republican ticket and Otn-
ers are still high in Republican coun-
ellis, and it would be disastrous to talk
Of such matters with the voters about
to take action
The same programme is attempted on
the tariff The Republican leaders say
stand pat and if the time ever comes
when it becomes necessary for party
success to amend the tariff in our own
time we will 90 it, Therefore the Re
publican platform said, I'VE insist upon
the maintenance of the principles Of
protection" that is, we stand pat land
therefore rates Of duty should be read
justed only when conditions have SO
changed that the public interests de
mand their alteration is when
we, the Republican leaders. find con
ditions have SO changed that the pub
lie" seem determined to defeat us we
will introduce il bill In the house Of
Representatives to readjust rates of
duty, and if the trust majority in the
senate defeats the bill we can't help it,
but will try again if you continue US in
power. But for Gods sake, don't
trust the Democrats
This is what spring poet describes
as residing under the bamboozle tree"
and in his latest eHusion he says:
There's the smooth politician who lives on
the dream
That he's surely bamboozling the voters
With his CAB and his graft, till he finds
in the end
He's been badly bamboozled by float
ers"
