will of the New York city managers in his
own party but had won in return the sup
port of the independent and reform ele-
ment, regardless of political opinion. Ev-
cry detail Of government has been closely
studied and watched. His nominations
have been quite uniformly creditable, be-
cause>he has consulted the efficiency of pub
lie service, not the whims or demands ofin-
significant politicians. He has dealtopenly
! and above board.
Because Governor Cleveland took no ac-
tive part in politics until recently, the con-
! clusion must not be jumped at that he came
into office a mere tyro. He was little accus-
toned to making speeches and writing let
ters on public questions, but when he began
it was with some purpose. Appreciation of
the business side of office and politics has
been amarked feature of his utterances. In
his inaugural address as Mayor of Buffalo
he took strong and decided grounds in favor
of retrenchment and reform in the eXpendi-
ture Of the city's finances, and his remarka-
bic utterances on this occasion and the fidel-
ity with which he kept his pledges and dis
charged his public duties first attracted to
him the admiration of the entire people of
his State and laid the foundation for his
election to the office Of Governor, the duties
of which he is now discharging to the salts
faction of all parties.
Governor Cleveland's rank at the bar is a
high one. He is careful and methodical as a
business man, which united to his faculty of
going to the bottom of all questions, gives
him tie principal elements essential to sue
cess in his profession. He presents his case
we'll and closely, whether the argument is
made before a court or a jury, but does not
indulge in any exhibition of pyrotechnics.
His vocabulary isample but not overwhelm-
ing or exhaustive, as is so often the case
with professional legal takers. He is a
hard worker, and large, reliable and COM
manding practice is his reward.
what above the medium height, with a
strong though not a particularly striking
face. He has dark, penetrating eyes and
heavy eyebrows. His movements are de-
liberate and dignified, but devoid Of the
heaviness which sometimes accompanies
men of his type. He is not a rich man, in
spite of his frugal bachelor habits. He does
much free legal work for poor clients and
has a way of assisting them, which, though
most creditable to his conscience, does not
put money in his purse. He is also a liber-
al benefactor Of all the charities of Buffalo,
a city peculiarly active in this work.
Governor Cleveands strength as candi-
| date is due to his strong conservatism, his
unsullied character, his sympathy with
straightforward business methods in poll
tics, his exceptional standing with the in
dependent, reform element the country over
and in his ability to inspire people with
the belief that he may be trusted to do moth
ing for purely partisan purposes. Few men
unite in themselves SO many considerations
of fitness and expediency. If elected he
may be trusted to expose jobs, turn out and
keep out thieves and give the country a
manly, conservative administration.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1884-07-24

bors of Rev. Robert Blair. Just across the
Lough of Belfast from Bangor, is Carrick
fergus. Itwas in this place that on the 10th
of June, 1912, the first Presbytery was Or
ganized in Ireland, and it was here that
the Prince of Orange landed. These two
events make Carrickfergus famous among
the towns of Ireland. There is a fact con-
nected with it which makes it a place of
importance to the people of the United
States. 1t was from Carrickfergus that the
parents of Andrew Jackson emigrated to
South Carolina. This makes the place one
of interest to every man who loves the stars
and stripes. No man ever lived who more
appropriately might be regarded as an eX-
pOnent of American liberty than Andrew
Jackson.
The labors of the an-Presbyterian Coun-
Gil, have, up to this period, been very
great, and good feeling and harmony pre-
vailed to remarkable degree. 1t must be
admitted that there is great diversity of
sentiment in the Council. There is party
which may be regarded as the lineal eccle-
siastical descendants of John Knox, John
Calvin and the other great leaders of the
first Reformation. There is another party
which may be regarded as the. antipodes Of
these. Between these extremes all shades
of differences exist. 1t is very manifest
that some individuals in the council are
ready to ignore all creeds and confessions
and unite the whole mass Of professed
Christians in our organic body. This zeal
for union is zeal which would mix poison
in our bread. 1t virtually declares that
truth is matter of minor Importance COM
pared with peace. This inverts the Bible
order. In the Bible truth is first and peace
second. No one can tell what great changes
may be brought about by the Holy Spirit in
a short time, but it is clear as day, that
organic church can be organized out of ma
terial forming the Presbyterian Coun-
Gil. r. LATHAM.

A Vigorous Protest Against the Fusion

CHARLEsTowN, July 3.-S1Exclusive +
The Democrats of this county held their
primaries yesterday to determine who should
be the nominees for county officers, and if
the action of the Republicans count any
thing, the nomination of Maxwell for Gov
ernor has played sad havoc in that party in
Jefferson county. Upon the receipt Of the
news Of his nomination some of the most
stalwart Republicans of the county de-
clared they would not support him, and
carried their declarations to the extent of
going to the polls yesterday and voting the
regular Democratic ticket for county Off
GERS and stating their intention Of
supporting the nominees of the
Democratic party at the October election,
Jefferson is the county wherein the oppreS-
sion Of the Registration Act was most felt
and while the stings which it caused
years ago had in q measure died out, the
nomination of Maxwell has revived them
with all other old bitterness and perhaps
greater effort will be made against him in
this county than any other in the state.
Said a Republican friend of mine the other
day: II hope the leaders of the fight will
Keep Maxwell Out

his presence here would engender a bitter
ness among the people that would destroy
our hopes for holding our vote together for

the prediction, that both

majority. The climax was capped at Grafton

he was a Greenbacker and elected

ty. Mr.. Kitchen has been the idol of the
Greenbackers of Berkeley county ever sisce

suit to one of their ablest representative
men will not strengthen the Maxwell ticket

Flick for Judge Of the Court of Appeals is
commented on favorably by all parties in
jefferson and Berkley. He will no doubt
carry Berkeley BY the largest majority ever
given to any candidate for Office: and l
would not be surprised if he got majority

canvass the matter and have found but one

STArSTOS, Va, August 4.-Ilon. James
G. Blaine, of Maine has established claim
now upon the people Of Augusta county for
their support, which is about on a par with
the hold he has upon West Virginia. He
bough. a fine riding horse here
yesterday through his friend, Mr.. Fl.
c. Parsons. Of the Natural Bridge.
The horse is a splendid black saddle ami
nal. considered The fastest racker in the
county, and has taken the first premium
at the Augusta Fair on two occasions.
He is of Canadian stock, and was sold to
Mr.. Blaine for $3.50 by Mr. William I.
McCue. bookkeeper in the Valley Mu-
tual Office. For several years the ami
NAL has been owned by Miss Baldwin, Of
the Augusta Female Seminary, and was
probably better known and more admired
than any horse in Staunton. Mr. McCue is
member of the Young Mems Democratic
Club here. He regrets that he did not ask
$500 for his horse, as he thinks he could
have gotten it just as EASILY ss $3.50, and he
could have put the money TO so much better
use than the rest Of Blsines bar will be
put TO during the campaign.

CURED BY FAITH.
A Lady Sick For Eight Years Re-
covers
FROM HER ILLNESS AFTER PRAYERS.
Seeking to Recover a fostune Of twenty
GMiIIion Dollars left by an Old
win lust Found.

NEWARK, N. j., August Much interes
has been manifested among residents of this
city over an alleged case of faith cure. Mrs,
Mary E. Douglass, of No. ia Camden
street, had been practically bedridden for
many years, Inheriing spinal disease from
her mother, she always had weak back.
A complication of diseases that attacked
her settled finally in her spine, and after
suffering for four years from spinal In
fammatipa she was finally stricken with
curvature of the spine, That was
four years ago. During the last two and q
half years she had liberation Of the stom-
ach and abcesses. For eight years she had
been confined to her bed, Her left hip was
drawn out of place and her ankles turned as
though she were clnb footed and her feet be-
came paralyzed. Meanwhile DR.. Ella
Haines had been attending her. Miss Elmer
and c. C. Lathrop persuaded her to see Mrs,
Baldwin, faith career, and that lady, with
Mr.. Lathrop and the Rev. DR.. Stamford,
Congregational minister called to see her.
Mr.. Stamford talked with her, and she had
consented to intrust her care TO the Lord,
and then the three knelt around her bed.
DR.. Stamford prayed, Mrs. Baldwin pressed
hard on her spine, while she too prayed,
and the pain, Mrs. Douglass says, seemed
to leave me right away. Then the gentle,
men left, AMI Mrs Baldwin asked me to
get up. l told her could not, but / sat up
in bed Finally she coaxed me to put my
foot on the floor and did so"
Now" said Mrs. Baldwin, placing two
chairs by the bedside, rise as say silent
prayer and stand resting on the chairs.
Il did so, and for the first time in eight
years / stood on my feet Finally she
called DR.. Sanford in. lie prayed that my
limb might be strengthened, and as he
prayed felt my leg slip into place and saw
nv foot on the floor. began to have faith
then, and started to take two or three steps
and walked around the room. feel no re-
turn of my maladies, and yesterday Dr.
Haines examined me and found that the
curvature of the spine had disappeared.
