should lay the cold bla.'.e of ths political
scalping Vnife on the heads of the demo

No man wat ever more u.-azenly "an ob

and the other federal officials are none the
less dtscrving of a sptea' ticket of leave.

The Portland Journal says: "Candi
date Foraker'slispatch to governor Semple
elect, congratulating" the latter upon his
success is another mark of a true republi
can, and only tends to show the difference
between the selected material it takes to
make a republican and the stuff democrats
are made of. Who ever heard of a demo
crat sending a congratulating dispatch to
a successful republican? That would be
as contrary to the general make up of the
ordinary democrat, as a monkey climbing
a tree backwards. Neither are built that
way." Now does the Journal really tup
pose that Feraker was glad that Camp
bell, (not Semple) was elected? If so,
why did he use all the power he could
summon Including a base resort to forged
papers to defeat him. For three months
Foraker put forth super-human efforts to
defeat Campbell and then after all these
efforts have failed and Campbell elected
he rushes in to congratulate the latter.
No Foraker wat not glad. Hit congrat
ulation to Campbell wat the well known

The Philadelphia Tcltgrafh, a leading
republican paper of that state has its views
of the late election. It says: The present
administration hat boen in existence tine
the 4th day oi March latt, and it is but,
the sheerest truth, known of all .men, that
It ha not up to thit day done a single
thlngsr for the matter of that, said
single thing to Indicate that It has any
Idea or policy unconnected with the dia
tributien of federal offices. It might have
adopted a policy in regard to that pudllc
duty which would have commended It to
the earnest support of the country ; but It
chose to adopt one which has day by day
brought down upon It the angry comdem
nation of the country. The president had
apparently no other and higher idea of the
duties of his great office when he entered
It, or since, than that of dlstrbuting the ex
ecutlve patronage. To that single line of
duty he has devoted himself with an encr
gy and pertinacity unexampled.
Never before in the history of the coun
try has public office, which should be a
public trust, been so persistently used as a
political spoil, or as a reward to the pract
ical politician, as has been the case since
the 4th oi March.
The country has no cause to regret the
result of Tuesday's election, nor will the
republican party have if its able and hon
est managers Insist that the administration
shall call a halt upon the policy of vulgar,
selfish politics which It hat pursued since
lit coming Into power. The rebuke of the
people on Tuesday wat emphatic; and
unlett the administration changet Itt en
tire course and shows that It has higher
alms than those of putting the offices where
they will do most good to one man, the
rebuke oi 189J will be a great djal more
emphatic.
