COWARDICE IN CONGRESS
All consi'ient ion s democrats who
are devoted to their party from prin
ciple regard the course of their par
ly in conoress with a mingled feel-ino-
if diso us ;,nd despair.
The people, under a tlisl t act i no
delusion, dismissed a republican
house with twenty-cioht niajurily
and replaced it wit Ii one haino' a
democratic majority of 1 1 Had the
republicans came into possession
of such a house in December last
and with a democratic senate and
president to confront them they
would have reduced the opposition
loiio-ere this, to a pitiable state of
frantic defense. The republican
and democratic parties are essenti-
illy different in their constitutional
character and respective methods
of political operation. Tin republi
can party was born out of political
chaos and rocked by the strurlinjf
sectionsol fiijhtinir factions. It came
as "one crying in the wilderness,"
vitalized by a splendid principle
that trobbed at its heart, and in
spired, as if by more than human
wisdom, to a manilicent mission, the
fulfillment of which will forever
shine upon the page of history as one
of the marvels of human achieve
ment. Coming into existence to
meet an emergency, to face a nation
bla.ing witli the baleful tires of se
dition, treason ami revolution, i is
natural for the republican party to
be courageous.
The democratic party, on the con
trary, has always been a party of
tempori.atiou and compromise. It
is essentially craven in character
and cowardly in conduct. It for
ever halts and skulks and seeks the
shades of safety, anil has never, in
all its history, pressed straight for
ward in an exulting path of ag
gressive action. It has never bad
the courage to bit an issue between
the eyes, but has always (lodged be
hind it ami contented itself with a
pusillanimous ambush warfare.
With two-thirds of the house of
representatives, which is democratic
by a larye majority, i:i favor of
Iraudulenl free silver, and who
were elected by free silver constitu
encies, its only care is to toy with
deceit and to make a false show by
fair compromises which it never in
tends to fulfill. The confessed
champion of free trade, it has never
had the heart for anything more
perilous than a theatrical war of
words.
Its present presidential candidate,
at whose feet it bows with degraded
servility, has been said to furnish
his party with an issue, if there is
anything new in democratic princi
ples, it is preserved as a most sacred
secret within their limbo of party
frauds and fallacies. Solemn ego
tisin ami a fondness lor ponderous
phraseology may have great weight
with tin1 av erage democrat, but they
are regarded by all intelligent and
self-respecting citizens with quiet
but contemptuous amusement.
The American people are always
ready to torgive mistakes honestly
made, or rashness prompted by zeal
in a cause believed in, but they have
only contempt and coiideiiin.it ion
for cowardice.- New York Mail and
l'Apress.

Until last night it has never been
known that I'lattsmouth had any
professional foot racers. Last night
a crowd went to the ball park to wit
ness a race between Win. dishing
and liny Livingston. The stakes
were a box of ten cent cigars and the
winner to pay the h ick hire. Afttr
arriving at the park the ground was
measured and the word given to go.
The two runners came down the
track at a terrific pace with dishing
about ten feet ahead of his competi
tor, and w hen near the goal dishing
stepped into a hole and fell. The
judges declared the race had to be
run over, but this time Livingston
came under the wire only a few feet
ahead. Another match was ar
ranged between John Tighe and
Sam Shnmaker, the sherilf winning
easily.
