"In the entire history of thin coun try the hif b office of President has NEVER hits hO IRONTITCTEI, and never has the appointing power ba so abused. Claiming to be the apostle of civil service reform, he has debaucbr-d the civil service by makintr appointments only of those whose sponsors would surrender their manhood, and. with bated breath, walk with submicxire head in his prexence. With relentless purpose he ha ignored his oath of olISt-H to uphold and obey the law, and has paid out gold instead of coin and issued bonds to buy more gold, by both actions IR-BIMX-i THE LAW, and giving no heed to the interests of any but moneyed friends I might say his owners or partners." " While to this besotted tyrant, coin has come to mean gold alone, he cannot by his mere 'ipse dixit change tho law of this land and per vert the plain meaning of the Eng lish language. His Republican partners in crime who set the un righteous and unlawful example which he has so persistently follow ed, and encouraged him in it to the utmost extent, canaot ESCAPE TUB. CONDEMNATION of the honest, working, business men of the couutry as equal partners in his guilt." Tho repeal of the Sherman law, it was asserted, which was the first point of attack of this "unholy al liance," was only accomplished through the aid atid in conjunction with a majority of the Republican Senators. "This Democratic President ac complished what was not possible for any Republican executive, under the circumstances, to have brought about. A chauge of the party in power had left a large number of offices in his gift WITH. WHICH TO BUY VOTES." In discussing the "honest mean ing"' of parity of gold and silver, in the Sherman law, he said. "The object was to have them to assist each other to hold silver up by holding gold down, and an hon est Secretarv of the Tre&surv. who "If the secret history of tho year should have resigned his office rath- er than submit to the DICTATION OF A BESOTTED CHIEF, would have paid out silver to pro tect the treasury from the gold gamblers and bond grabbers, as the law and the oath of his office re quired.

I could write columns giv ing my reasons for being for the coinage of silver, but do not deem it necessary in this communication. It may be said by some that I am not adhering strictly to the principles of my party, which would not be true.
