Show A red-hot (newspaper) fight is going on between Carl Schnrz and Senator Gallinger. Schurz was imprudent enough to write Gallinger Gallin-ger an open letter impeaching his party loyaltv, and Gallinger replys, tracing Schurz's career since his coming to this country; shows that he has never been in honest spirit an American, and never has been true to any party. . He copies the article in which Mr. Blaine dissected dissect-ed the fraud and showed by careful analysis that he was at least 98 per cent base metal, and closes .his arraignment with these tire-puncturing words: Vhat is there in your record to justify you in calling in question any man'sparty loyalty? You who, in turn, have scorned about all the political principles and pledges made by the parties to whom you have been temporarily attached? You to whom this' glorious country of ours looks "morally small?" What have you ever had to do with party organizations except to betray them? From the time when you were chief conspirator in the Greeley movement move-ment of 1872 to wreck the Republican Republi-can party and destroy Gen. Grant when have you ever rendered it or any other party, disinterested service? serv-ice? Some other country may have produced a more stricking example" than yourself of the soldier of fortune for-tune in politics, but you are without a parallel in the United States. Your excuse for writing to me is that I called you a traitor to the Republican party. I have refreshed refresh-ed my recollection of your connection connec-tion with the Republican party from the records, and I have nothing to retract from the' charge I made Tribune. |
