The most rediculous predicament
into which the democratic bosses havi
fallen for some time, is into the Chi
nese net. Wonder if they expect to
use it for a fish net to catch Cana
dians in, if they succeed iu getting
their own fish out of it '
What has become of the enormous
surplus in the treasury, about which
we heard so mucu from democrat--
organs some six weeks ago? Wi t
really never there, or did Clevel.wo.
seek to deceive the people by his
message, or was he really so igtmr-int
of the condition of affairs, that he
did uot knov himself? Will soin
good democrat please explain?
In 1864 the country called on 0 ri
ver Cleveland for sevic, and he hired
a substitute. In ISc-l the counir
jailed on him again, and if he had
hired a substitute tlii time, tlie coin,
trv would be better off today It
makes quite a differ?.!!!- who cali:-.
The first time, t!o- commanding gener
al of the union forces called thN
time it was the brigadiers of tht
south.
Tlie tenets of the republiean part,
arc, freedom fo; all men. and protec
tion to all Americans and American
industries; a free ballot and a fair
and honest count. The tenets of the
democratic party are free trade for
all men and protection to such as are
able to protect themselves, but no
protection to American industries.
Mark the difference.
