Mr. Ellis, of Louisiana, said toa Star reporter to- day that he looked upon the letter as the most ‘magnificent production that had come from Cleve- land’s pen, “and he has never written any but good things since he has come into 2 “It 18 grand,” chimed im Mr. f of Towa, “every democrat—every man—must be proud of it, and they will all sustain hitn in hia position.” “Yes, sir,” added Mr. Ellis, “t is the volce of a statesman. It ts the principle of the democracy to sustain and enforce the law. All the suffering this country has ever endured has been the result of a breach of the law. I have felt it in my own state when the constitution was torn away and the People exposed to the scourge of lawlessness, The republican party owes its downfall to its disregard for the letter of the law. ‘The life of the democracy depends upon its upholding, the law. With the Policy indicated tn Cleveland's letter, twenty-five years from now and the party will sttll bein power. Cleveland has proven himself to be a statesman of high order, He will trample out this accursed gpolls system, and I pray that every democratic Senator and Representative gather around him and hold up his hands as Aaron held up the hands of ‘Moses. ‘They must sustain him and make the name of the democratic party a lasting ‘of honor and honesty. ‘There are sentiments in that letter ‘That should be posted over the portals and gate- ‘Ways, as the Jews used to do; they should serve as frontal-pleops to rest before the eyes of American iucians.” Ptevery democrat and every republican,” eald Mr, Pusey, “will read that letter and say ‘It has the right Hing.’ Cleveland has crown upon us.
