Liaooln. June 20.1884.
When ix-Gov. Hendricks meets Gov
Cleveland at Albany to discuss the
campaign prospects, a fruitiul theme
would be, the length of time between
drinks, under which Democracy suf
fers.
We need a vigorous foreign policy.
fwo American workmen were arreted
in Mexico, charged with defaming the
character of the Mexican president, and
were sentenced without trial; reform
is necessary.
A Saunders county paper has been
advocating Gen. Cowin, ot Omaha, as a
tit man to succeed Mr. Weaver as con
irresRrvmn from this district. General
Cowin has, however, very emphatically
aunounced that he would havu none of
it.
Our democratic adversaries an
nouuee before hand that they intend
digging up Mr. Blaine's poker record,
when he was a young fellow teaching
school down in Kentucky. If it is true
that Mr. Blaine did indulge in the
game of draw in his youth, it may be
accounted for by his democratic assc
riafinns in Kentucky. "Evil associa
tion'' etc., gentlemen. However, we
would advise our democratic friends
to gaze on the four aces the man
from Maine holds in the present little
game, and let the "might have beeu's
go.
THE MORAL SIDE OF IT.
Democratic journals are beginning
to show their bad temper on account of
the fact that republican papers so far
decline to enter the slums of Buffalo
after Mr Grover Cleveland's high sme.
ling record as a man. However, it ap
pears that certain clergymen and relig
ious newspapers are turning the newly
fnnnd democratic orodiev over. These
ate the'proper mediums for this work
because Mr Carl Schurz, George Wil
liam Curtis Henry Ward Beecher
and their independent followers have
Announced that the campaign is purely
a moral one. involvinz moral questions

If any of our deuiocratij friend
doubt this all they Law t do ia to ex
amine and read Vol. 5, i f reports ot
committees uf the House of Represent
atives of the Thirty-Sixth Congress.
There they will fiad Mr. Hendricks'
record as a civil service reformer, so
tank, that, to use a metaphor of Con
gressman l'ete Hepburn, of the Eighth
Iowa district, "the man in the moon
has to hold his no?" whtn he exam
ines it,
Mr Tfcouita . A. IIendrick3 has sev
eral records'and they all "smell rank to
Heaven."'
Tub Democratic journals uf the
country may just as well understand,
first as well s last, that bluster will
not answer the charges mad against
Grover Cleveland. Mr Cleveland is,
comparatively Bpeaking, au unknown
man, a new man in national politics.
The democratic party from the multi
tude of blunders it is supplied with,
has undertaken to name a man for the
presidency, sho has no record that is
the plain truth of it in order that
that party may steal into the posessinn
cf this government.
They succeeded in selecting Mr
Cleveland upon this tneory. The rno
ment they succeeded in bo doing the..
and their allies, the so-called hide
pendents commenced a camjeaign of
villification against Mr. lilaine, rehash
ing the stale slanders of 18TG, slanders
that have been iuvesMgated both in his
own state and by an American Con
gress and pronounced unfounded. At
the same time these opponents of the
republican party have vauutingly pro
claimed that "tha paramount isue ol
(he presidential election of tUU ye tr io
moral rather than political."
It curns out now from chnfges (hat
are maue ov certain cterg men a-
Mr. GroVtrr Cleveland's own home,
Buffalo, th.it tLe democratic -.acdidate
has a record, ami that (hat record i by
no means a respectable or savory one
The republican party have cot brought
this charge against Grover Cleveland,
his own neighbors and towusmen have
spoken out about it, and right early iu
the campaign too; there is to sueaking
villainous, criminal, e!eveuth-hour-foi
gery about it, such as disgraced the na
tional democratic committee cf four j
years ago, when the Morey letter was
forged and promulgated by the com
mittee in charge of the honor and in
terests ol the democratic p-irty and Mr
Hancock.
Mr. Grover Cleveland must meet this
charge; he ia making his race, par -excellence,
as a moral man and reforaier.
V v are proud of the fact that the re
publican pres have not brought this
chatge against Mr. Grover Cleveland.
We hoi c he may be able to explain the
matter. Neither threats nor counter
charges will relieve him Irora the ne
cessity of showing to the American
people, that be is not the licentious
man fcome of his neighbors charge him
With bein.
So far as Mr. Blaine is concerned, he
was nominated because he had a record
because he was known of all men, bo
cause he was a public man, a promi
nent man, a representative leader of
republican priiciples and measures,
because the republican party consid-
ejrtU him great in an and a statesmao.
They knew he would bo traduced, ma
ligned, libels anil defamed; but the?
knT ine American people knew J. G
lilaine fully as well as the penny-a
liners and politicians and that Ameri
can honor and American intcrestc
would be safe in his hands.
So. Mr. Rlaluc and his friends hav
nothing to fear from the retaliatory
threats which his enemies are indulg
iug In, neither will they be disturbed
by democratic bluster.
