Show CLEVELAND NO DEMOCRAT. Some of our so called "silver Republican" Repub-lican" friends contluually refer to Groyer Cleveland as a Democrat and attempts to arraign tho Democratic party on tho ground that tho fat "man of destiny" bolongs to our party. This can only bo regarded as a doliborato attempt to decelvo tho people. In 1800 tbo Domooratio party repudiated tho ideas of Cloyelund ond his ilk aud adopted a people's platform. If our "silvor Republicans" roforrod to desired de-sired to bo honest tljey would admit that Clovoland and his supporters deserted de-serted tho Domocratlo party upon tho Chicago platform and tbdt thoy were among tho strongest supporters of "Major" McKluloy. Honesty Is however how-ever one of tho qualities least appro-dated appro-dated by tho Republican politicians of tho prcsont day whother they insist on that profix "silvor" or not. It Is with tbem only blind adherenco to a name, which has long slnco lost its glory, and will have no effect with people who road and understand. |
