_ At the outset, ‘the quest toa arisee:. %
Do the personal qualifications of U. at
Grant, Jr, of themselves cons
valid basis and suggestion of
-didacy, or is his candidacy
by the distinguished name he bears, or . iP
"the honored historic lineage to which he the nation could no, it did for General
“thay justly lay claim?
What, then, are Mr. Grant’s qnalifi.
ations for the office of Senator? Has successive terms and his remains rehis education especially qualified him
for a career in the highest patliamentary body inthe world? Are his abili-.
which will enable him to step from the,
floor into the august place of a Senator
without. experience?. What has been
his career as a party leader? Of what,
great political principles has he been
the proponent? What speech has he
delivered upon national isstes which
has pointed the way to a solution of
great national problems?’ What aid has
he -rendered to the party at whose
hands he asks political perferment in
achieving-and maintaining supremacy
in the nation?
Inseeking answers to these questions,
we are animated by no spirit of prejudice toward the aspirant. But these
questions must be answered, and satis. ,
factorily to this people, or Mr. Grant .
has no possible chance of election. To .
take these questions seriatim, answers.
are not far to seek.
U. 3. Grant has bad noexperience in . '
any legislative body. ~He is therefore a
novice in statesmanship.
There is nothing in the éducational
qualifications of U. S. Grant which
would afford 4 guarantee of a successful . ,
career in the greatest legislative foram
of the world.
Mr. Grant has manifested on no fleld
of intellectual activity, commanding
abilities of any order.
-<He has deserved no recognition af
@ leader to whom it owas either aL
tade‘or feality.
Ho bas not -eaergizad ths national
conscience concerniug any great principle of civil liberty, or instracted or
enlightened the nation on any great
question of public policy.
He has delivered no speech at any
time or place which would stamp him
asan intellectual leader, philospher,
politition or statesman.
He has rendered no distinguished
service to the Republican party aud
has not contributed appreciably to its
success in the State or in .the nation.
The questions we. have propounded
being irrefutably answered in the nega.
tive, it follows by the conclusion of in-.
exorable logic that U. 8. Grant, Jr., di-.
wested of his name and. tbe patriotic
association with which it. will be forever connected, and divested of the
historic lineage which belongs to him,
would possess no personal qualifica“¢ions constituting a valid claim to
great office of Senator or ‘suggesting
his. name and serenely sad that
office.
The name of U. S. Grant is associated
with the strongest patrioticsentiments
the human mind can know. From Bel-.
ment to Appomattox U. 8. Grent was
the one peerless military hero of the
great historic period of this nation. A
proud and happy nation acknowledges
with the deepest gratitude the service
he rendered his country as a military
captain. But the attributes of character which distinguished him,ended with
-his military career. If the great qualities of General Ulysses 8. Grant have
descended to his son, they are in the
ine of military genius and patriotic
Aevotion, for the administrations of
e ‘President Grant were conspicuous fail.
mres. It was infinitely greater to be:
Grant than to be President, and the
Presidency added nothing, but detracted much from the foundations
upon which the fame of the great General of the Civil War rests.
The claim of U.S. Grant, Jr. to be
United States Senator from California
therefore has no broader foundation
