Col W T Dowdall
Col W T Dowdall of Illinois is
1 1 tho city stopping at tho National
Hotel Col Dowdall was for over a
quarter of a century editor and pro
prietor of leading daily papers in his
Stato ut Alton during tho war and at
Peoria after tho war was a Demo
cratic loader and activo worker from
185G to 1880 b6ing a delegate to every
Stato Democratic convention during
that period of time also a delegato
twino from tho and
onco front his district to National
Democratic Conventions Bad health
caused him to re tiro from journalism
and go on his agricultural ranch in
tho central part of tho State and tuke
things easy Tho Colonel was Post
master in Peoria dming Mr Cleve
lands first term as Pre idont but wai
not an aspirant for any office during
this torm Ho says ho has regained
his health on Iho farm and iff making
money two things well calculated to
satisfy any sciisiblo man and cause
him to stear clear of holding office
either District Stato oi National
When wo stato tho Colonels farm
moasurcs eight miles around it ono
wil not wonder at his disposition to
take tilings easy and watch tho salva
tion of Iho Lord Ho favoied our
sanctum with a social call as is his
wont to do whonovor oppoitunity pre
sents itself calling upon his editorial
brethren On being asked his
upon tho recent land slide ho said
Whon one lays aside party prefer
ences and high personal regard for
those who ought to bo party leaders
I dont see how ho can fail to seo and
understand the reason of defeat Com
ing as it did from each and every
section and portion of tho United
States proves conclusively that the
cause wus national not district city
or Stale Whon a President goes into
the opposing party for his chief politi
cal advisor as Mr Cleveland did in
tho selection of Judgo Greshain a
life long Republican and too one
who voted 306 times for Grant for
Secretary of State following it up
with thoappointmont of lesser objec
tionable men for Cabinet positions
and first class positions abroad Mc
Veigh as Minister to Rome and Kis
sel Postmaster General for instance
what else could you expect of tricky
slippery politicians in Congress and
in the United States Senate Hill
Gorman Brice Palmer ad infinitum
Had Mr Cleveland called an extra
session of Congress in April 1893 to
legislate upon tho tariff reformation
a thing ninety nino per cent of the
party were united on then the sight
ly ten scallawags in tho Demociatic
party who had obtained official posi
tion through false pretenses would
not have dared kick over the political
traces But what did Cleveland do
ho relegated tariff reform to tho rear
and convened Congress for the pur
pose ot legislating upon the question
of silver and then took the wrong
side of tho question as ho did upon
tho Hawaiian matter and used the
Federal patronage to help a very
small minority of the Democratic
party defeat the wishes of a very latge
majority of tho party Not satisfied
with these terrible blunders and
wrong doings in order to show his
contempt for laboring men and eager
ness to servo tho monopolist million
aire and tyrant ho violated ever
principle known to Stato lights b
sending tho armies of Iho United
States to take charge of oiticb and
States against tho direct orders of the
Governors of said States prostituting
the army to do polico duty thereb
violating tho letter and spirit of the
Constitution of the United Stales
which ho had taken a solemn optli to
uphold and defend Witli such ac
tions on tho part of the Administra
tion how could any ono expect differ
ent results at the polls than were
made manifest the 0th inst
What will bo the result of thl
matler was asKed
I hope it will bo tho means of
greater dcluieuo being paid in paitj
conventions to selecting candidates
who will when elected adhcio to the
best intercut of Iho masses of the
American people and less desire to
got candidates to represent tho mill
ionaires Tho fact is j hero has been
too much running after Wall si reel
intciest and too little iutorest to the
poor men of tho country Any ad
ministration or political party domi
nated by Wall street will as it ought
to bo turned down Tho man or
men I caro not who thoy are who use
their power to servo Wall street inter
ests as against the laboring toiling
ma8ie8 of tli6 American people are
no Democrats at heart and the sooner
they ally themselves with tlia Repub
lican parly tho better for Democracy
