Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Authorized Pictorial Lives of Stephen Grover Cleveland and Thomas Andrews Hendricks: Being Full and Authentic Narrative of the Ancestry and Early Life of the Great Reform Governor; Sudden Orphanage and Early Struggles; Unconquerable Purpose in Gaining an Education and Triumphing Over Poverty, Cold, and Hardship Its temporary mission accomplished, Republicanism van ished, and in its stead a specious phantom has arisen, a hollow mockery, an unreal shadow, behind Whose smil ing and deceitful mask is hidden the ghastly, learing death's head of piracy and fraud. In 1876 these bandits stole the Presidency, and in defiance of the will of the American people placed in the nation's highest otfice a creature whom they themselves now denounce as a paltry fraud. This out rage upon the nation and upon even its meanest citizen was perpetrated by the party that had once numbered in its ranks such men as Horace Greeley, Charles Sumner and Wendell Phillips men pure, even if mistaken. This is the party which has squandered the fertile lands belonging to the American people, by millions of acres; which has filched from the national treasury billions of dol lars which has made bribery the main part of its political machinery, and has banished brains and decency; which has sullied the judicial ermine by placing upon the bench of the Supreme Court the bribed tools of giant corporations and monopolies; which has for the benefit of the wealthy few, made special legislation by which the poor might be still further impoverished and the weak ground into the dust that illegal monopolies might be built up.
