Then if the city will meet all exjH-nses of operating the cars, am pay the men several thousand dollar; a ii :y as a Ponus lor runnim.- them they may be satisfied for a while. at Aecordin;; to the view of our friends of the l.ryan ersiiasion it is highly commendable for Webster Davis to leave the lU'iaibliciin party when he cannot approve it platform. V.'hy then censure the Democrats from bult inr under similar conditions? The Caruthersville IVmocrat has no doubt learned before this that it was a little previous in hoistin-i the name of David B. Hill at its masthead as the Democratic nominee for vice president. Stranjre hw Urt. I.on;r yrivar could have made such a blunder. At the conclusion of his speech Lincoln the other day Mr. l.ryan re makeil: ".So you oujht to h prouii that you aiv an American citicn and and are able to say. "If the Kejmblic rocs down. 1 am not to blame for its downfall.'"

If the average citizen could believe half that is contained in this platform he would conclude that the Uepublican party had on foot an avowed plan to wreck the country and make slaves of every citizen in it. But thinking people are not so easily hoodwinked. The protestations of the Bryanites look all right, the lofty language is calculated to impress people who are carried away more by what comes out of a man's mouth than what is in bis head, but when people compare all this talk with what the party did when it was in power, they can only conclude that the platform is simply in the nature of a grand stand play for votes.
