On the Defensive.
Republican orators have settled down to the work of defending the administration. It is not so much a campaign of apology for the corruption and favoritism of the administration as it is one of justification, but which needs an immense amount of explaining and defending. This means that the policy of the administration is not to be changed in any way, but the people are to be made to believe that the administration knows better than they what is good for the country.—Kansas City Times.
