I think, however, that the army of the Potomac has never fought its battles through." When the administration began its assault on John Boach it got a burr in its hair that will hurt If It Isn't pulled out, and that will hurt if it is. Why should the administration want to break down John Roach and destroy the greatest ship-building- business and al most the only substantial ship-building busi ness In the United States Why should the administration take exactly the course that the bitterest enemy of the foremost exponent of the American ship-building interest would take, if it had control of the government and wanted to destroy that interest. The facts of this exploit of the administration are coming out They are coming out so clearly that the admtnlst-ation cannot justify Itself even to party prejudice. The conviction is srrowinjr, ana growing important quar ters In the democratic party, that the New fork machine politician and coal oil patriot, woo represents democratic reform as secre tary of the! navy, was governed chiefly in this business by an unscrupulous purpose to manufacture partisan capital, regardless of the substantial merits of the case and regardless of the disastrous conse quences to the Interests of the government, as well as of those of America's greatest ihip-bullder and the thousands of laboring men directly concerned. It is now conceded that John Roach Is an honest man) that he has conducted his business honestly that the unintermlttent assaults made for years upon him by the free-trade press were slan.

ders; that he has not fattened on government patronage; that on the contrary the work he has done for the navy department has been a small and comparatively unim portant end the least profitable part of the work of bis great ship-building establish, ment; that 90 per cent, of the ocean mer. chant ships bearing the American flag to-day have been built by John Roach, and that this vast business has been built up by John Roach a course of business energy, foresight, fair dealing and integrity. This much is admitted almost universally. There is likewise an increasing disposition in democratic quarters to condemn Secretary Whitney as arbitrary, dishonest and calculatingly partisan in his course in regard to the dispatch boat Dolphin. The vessel, according to as reliable democrats as can be found, was built by John Roach honestly and in strict compliance with the contract as directed by the government, and in such strict compliance that Secretary Whitney had to resort to des perate and most extraordinary expedients in order to find even a pretense for rejection.

It is not, therefore, surprising that with increasing knowledge of the facts popular sympathy, breaking over even party bounds, should be moved towards one of the greatest and most important business enterprises whose very prominence caused it to be selected as a victim to despotic partisanship in the cabinet. Secretary Whitney in bringing about this result made a great mistake, as the democratic party will keenly realize later on, and is, in fact, already beginning to realize. The truth is the navy department has been the place in which the vague democratic fables of republican cor ruption have been located, and John Roach the name most repeated in connection With them; and Secretary Whitney, when the books were opened and the records investigated and no truth found in the sweeping i eharges, took the course of gratuitously! making war on Roach as the only way of manufacturing the partisan capital and of; concocting a record which should obscure the truth of the republican administration of the navy department. That kind of bastard reform will not be a very valuable parti- possession of the democracy. The peo ple are not enthusing over the administra tion plan building up American ship building by destroying American ship-build ers and ship yards.

The Des Moines Leader of the 30th ult. makes a vigorous attack on the candidacy of Capt. Merrell, of Clinton, for the democratic nomination for governor. The Leader de nounces as "folly" the nomination of any democrat who is obnoxious not to demo crats, be it remembered to "our allies," to- wit: the greenbackers. The Leader says that the democratic candidate "ought not to be a national banker." That is the objection of the greenbackers to Capt.

Merrell, a man whose honor and integrity are so esteemed by his neighbors that they trust him with their money. That is to say, Capt. Merrell is such an honest man that the irreenbackers don't like him and therefore tiie Leader thinks he ought to be condemned. And the Leader, it may be added, is a democratic paper which aspires to be the state organ of the democratic party. The Ottumwa Democrat calls the letter of E.

H. Gillette, the greenback candidate for lientenant-governor, to Judge Kinne bidding for support, "the most pitiable and contemptible political pettifogging." The Democrat winds up a scornful and scorching editorial thus: "But if he (Gillette) tells the truth in saying that his views are found in the platforms of the greenback party of this state he is then a prohibitionist seeking to be elected by the votes of anti-prohibition democrats." Judge Kinne's special platform committee to write the Iowa democratic platform now has a model in the platform promulgated by the Virginia democrats. The special committee would have to doctor the tariff plank somewhat, but the plank indorsing the president's policy of removing "offensive partisans" is a daisy. Was the extraordinary expedient of Judge Kinne In appointing a special committee to write the democratic platform simply a ruse to head off Theodore Guelich, Col. Eiboeck and the other leaders of the low license faction? The Dubuque Telegraph would be a good authority in answering this question.

The democratic Dnbuque Telegraph sug gests that, inasmuch as Judge Kinne cannot trust the democratic party of Iowa to write IU own platform, he Bhould now "rescind the call for the democratic state convention, and nominate candidates and promulgate a platform to suit himself." President Cleveland.it is said, shaves him self. But then he handles the razor much more carefully than when he is shaving republican officials. There are a good many democratic voices taking up the cry: "Gillette must go." You can bet your life that Capt. Bell, of the Webster City Chronicle, who has just been appointed postmaster at Webster City, will promptly drop out of ths list of candidates for the democratic nomination for governor. Being a man of sound Capt Bell knows a sure thing when he has It St.

John says there is more and severer prohibition in Georgia and other southern democratic states than in Iowa. Remembering that fact, Iowa Germans and prohibitionists generally will be delighted to know that the Keokuk Constitution is in favor of the southern democratic kind of prohibition. The spirit in which the Constitution urges prohibition may be judged from the following extract from an editorial in its issue of the 27th inst: Iowa democracy, while never electing any. thing in tbe state, can give the democracy of Missouri. Georgia, South Carolina and other states where they do elect a democratic ticket; a good many points.

Now in these and other democratic states local option is considered first-class and A 1 democratic doctrine, in the democratic party of Iowa, a victory la unknown to the present generation, local option is a heresy and cannot he tolerated by leading divines in tbe party. Perhaps if democratic states anew uuw rwa I wemuvt itciq they -would have more respect for usv Still, 1 i the. party in Iowa to venttlre.arl limitation of their brethren in Missouri ana ueorgia. where the usual majority for democracy and local option is about as great as it is in Iowa for republicans and prohibition. It will be a great strain on the fossilliferous formation of the party in this state, but it is worth experimenting with by dethoct ate cf a more "recent" creation.

The Dubuque Herald, of the 30th ult. makes the following suggestion to tbe demo cratic state committee In relation to one of the phases of Gov. Sherman's suspension of State Anditor Brown: One of the duties of tbe democratic state convention will be to nominate a candidate for auditor of state, in which office there i vacancy wtiicn has Deen temporarily nuea. until an election can be held bv an appoint ment bv the governor- The man elected last fall. Brown, has not qualified, and so by law the people will have to elect another auditor this fall.

The call for the state convention omitted the auditor In the list of candidates to be nominated for office, but it was-prob ablv an oversight. Tbe attention of the chairman and secretary of the state commit tee Is called to this matter so that tbe call can be Dronerlv fixed, and a candidate for auditor nominated. it has been suegestea that Brown will ask the republican conven-tion to renominate him. It is proper that the democrats should have a man on their ticket especially as the latter will probably be elected. A correspondent of the Davenport Demo.

crat thinks it is strange that the special committee appointed by Judge Kinne to draft a platform for the Iowa democracy is made up exclusively of editors. J. W. Burdette signalized his retirement from the editorship of the Burlington Hawk eye by entertaining the entire working force of that paper at a banquet on the 27th ult. SOBTH WESTERN ITEMS.

Beck, Bourbon, had much the largest petition and was backed by cow-man, Li am and other leading Bourbons, and Page was backed by Weaver. There is raging and gnashing of teeth among the unwashed." The appointment of Morris Thompson, of Baltimore, who, like the notorious Biggins, is one of Senator Gorman's henchmen, re calls the fact that he was the man chosen by tne democratic national committee to loiiow Blaine through Ohio last year and distribute copies of the Mulligan letters.

Collapse of a Programme that Would Save Furnished lows Kepubll-cans Lots of Ammunition. Council Bluffs Globe, dein, 28: When the Globe first questioned the policy of accepting Mr. Gillette as the fusion candidate for lieutenant governor, on the three-line platform adopted by his party, this year, some of its best friends questioned the wisdom of its bourse. It rully considered this matter before it uttered a word in regard to it, and when once committed, there did not seem to be any reason presented for ehsnging. Nothing has since occurred, even by the publication of Mr.

Gilicttc's letter to Judge Kinne, that leads to an alteration of views already expressed. The leading republican papers" whit-b'had hoped that the democracy would fall into this trap, and commit such a blunder for their advantage, confess that the position of the Globe was a correct one from a democratic oue, and in the name and for the cause of success. Ths Sioux Citt Jotrr.NAL, decidedly the leading republican newspaper in northwestern Iowa, and in western Minnesota ai.d Dakota, in its Sun day issue.expresscs its oplmon of the course of the Globe, the Dubuque Herald and other democratic papers in accord with them on this issue. The Journal says: "It is not proving very popular with the democratic organs. The Des Moines Anzeijer itself says it will not support a prohibitionist for an office of such importance as that oi lieutenant governor, or any other office." The Council Bluffs Globe, Dabuque Herald and Telegraph and other leading democratic organs, revolt at the idea.

Let them worry it out. The claws of the fusion tiger are cut. It never, in fact, had any claws. The only regret among republicans is that the exposure came before the democracy had been bound to fusion, so that there could have been no remedy for it. It is seen what value it put on t.uch a melon as it proposed.

It confesses its regret, tha1 there is danger of its failing, because it had more to hope for in advantage to the republican party, than the Qemocrais tnem6ives nau for themselves. Judge Kinne's Fantastic Trick. Dubuque Telegraph, 30: Chairman Kinne appears to think that the democrats of Iowa do not know what is good for them or what they want near so well as he and a few others do, and so he has appointed a committee of gentlemen to meet on a date prior to that fixed for the state convention, to propose a platform for the latter's acceptance. This is kind of Judge Kinne, and as he seems anxious to save the party trouble-, we would suggest that he now re scind the call for the convention ana nomi nate candidates and promulgate a platform to suit himself. Judge' Kinne is a very officious gentleman.

A short time since he undertook the job of parceling the federal offices among the members of the-state committee, later be es poused the cause of local option, and now he proposes to tell the democrats of Iowa just what they shall and shall not say in their declaration of princl- les. Clothed with a little oner euinomy, is playing such fantastic tricks before high heaven as make angels weep. He ought to give us a rest. Cnnecessary "Wonder." Dubuque Herald, SO: Mr. B.

Grant in the national house of representatives. The Virginia democraev was Terr careful to tell President Cleveland that by indorsing his policy was to be understood that the removal of offensive partisans was meant. Gillette, the greenback candidate for lieutenant-governor, in hi letter to Judge Klnne is anxious that ha repeal of prohibition should.be kept in the background in the Jowa contest this year and antl-monopol; questions thrown into prominence. Be urges that the republicans 6hould not be allowed "to disorganize the opposition by selecting for them an issue upon which thej (the opposition) are divided." But the Du- buque Herald, referring to this aspiration of Gillette, replies that "it Is the democratic party and sot the republican, that wishes to force the issue 1 In the news columns of this issue of The Jocbtui. will be found a letter from State Auditor Brown to Gov.

Sherman, bearing date of the 39th on the subject of the long-standing dispute between those officers. Auditor Brown's letter recites his last effort to comply with the very letter of the gov ernor's requirements, as the" former finds them in the governor's letters to third parties, none having been, as the auditor claims, addressed officially and directly to him. Auditor Brown files the required vouchers, verified by oath, the form being a copy of the vouchers filed by Gov. Sherman when he was state auditor. In only one detail does Auditor Brown say that he departs from the letter of the governor's requirements, and that is in the matter of the disputed so- called "fees," or money paid the auditor for expenses of state bank examinations.

Ths auditor does not cover the disputed fees into the state treasury, alleging for reason that he could not sue the state, but he does deposit $1,500 or more than the whole amount of the fees disputed by the governor with a trustee, subject to the judgment of the Having done this. Auditor Brown "demands" of Gov. 8herman that he at once approve his official bond and revoke the cider suspending the auditor from office. There is also considerable reiteration of the views all along maintained by Auditor Brown. There are some" other things said which had better been left unsaid.

That is an offensive characteristic of the whole dis agreeable quarrel on both sides. Wtiat turn things will now take It would be useless to try to predict. Surely it is time for the bloody shirt to be laid in the grave and a great stone put oo top of the grave. It is time that the old rag should go to the political rag; man. -The people have been saying this for a good while, and it is their devout aspiration.

It is, therefore, with profound regret that the country will observe a determination in certain quarters to run up the bloodiest kind of bloody shirt to the masthead and, indeed, to make it the chief issue of political con tests. 'The memories and prejudices and hatreds of the war have again been pushed to the front as the main reliance in strife for political power. This is the deliberate pur pose of the democratic party of- Virginia for the ensuing state contest. Gen. Fitz-Hugb Lee, the democratic candidate for governor of Virginia, in his speech before the demo cratic state convention deliberately ran up the bloody shirt and deliberately keyed his fight to that issue.

He made the glaring assertion that he demanded support now on the tamt ground that he did when he foreswore allegiance to the nation and entered the rebel army in 1SS1 as an officer, and the military record ran as the dominant feature through his entire keynote speech. This is the more significant because the men against whom be declared such bitter hostility and appealed to the re bellious ardor of the old war spirit, are men "who, like himself, are ex-rebel soldiers, but who, unlike him, are in favor of hauling down the rebel bloody shirt. Therein, in fact, is the crowning offense of Wite, the republican candidate for governor of Virginia against Gen. Lee. It is precisely because he is in favor of buryinsr the rebel bloody shirt, of allowing the rancor and hatreds of the war to die out entirely, and of basing politics on the legitimate issues of the new era, that the Virginia democracy is assailing him and the republican party this year with such excessive malignity.

The Virginia democracy stands by the bloody shirt. It stands by the memories and antagonisms of the war." It cher ishes In every way stimulates them as its main props. It de nounces' especial enmity against any ex-rebel who declares for lowering the rebel bloody shirt. It makes ths bloody shirt Its campaign battle flag. Nor is the democracy of Virginia alone In this regard.

The bloody shirt is the very essence of the politics of the democratic party of the entire solid Not candidate is nominated in a single state of the solid democratic sontb, from United States senator to school director, from governor to road supervisor, whose nomination is not controlled by the rebel bloody shirt issue. Not a single campaign, is fought in national, state, county, township and village palltics in the solid south in which the democratic party docs not look to the rebel bloody shirt as its inspiring battle llae and place its main reliance in keeping ulive the enmities and passions of the war. There Is no place in the south to-day in which the democratic party does not regard as a traitor to it the democrat "who does not stand by the rebel bloody shirt as the vital principle of democracy. This Is te be regretted. The north years afro laid aside the bloody shirt.

It has in the north come to this, that even refer-; ence to th part the republican party bore In the war Is hooted down by the northern dough-face democratic organs as bloody-shirtism, not to be tolerated. The north, in fact, would fain allow the irritations of the war to become forever healed. It would be better If It could be so. But the trouble Is that the democratic party will not allow this to be The deliberate policy of the democratic party of the solid south, which dominates the policy of the democratic party nationally, Is to irrigate politics by- tearing open the wounds of the war. It proceeds on the belief, born of the old slave- whipper's arrogant; spirit, that southern treason may flaunt and perpetuate Itself for the profit of the democratic party, but northern loyalty must stand la dumb abashedness In the presence of its record.

The crime of democratic bloody shirtism is that it insults and defies the loyal sentiment of the country, and forces the north In maintenance of Its self-respect to defend its record and to maintain issue which it would gladly leave to the past. Gen. Weaver is In Washington. It Is to be observed that Just as he was cornered in a lie ny CoL Eibeeck and E. H.
