CLEvELASD's "DLIspNEss or DESPERATE
HARDWOOD"
From The Tcr York Times, Jane 2, 1883. =
After waiting until near the end OF the
period allowed for the approval OF bills left
unsigned at the close OF the session, tho
Governor files u memorandum approving
the infamous aqueduct measure, against
which NIL the character and intelligence OF
this City has been protesting for month.
at tho same time, as il to counteract the
elect, he sends out slasling veto OF q
large part OF the Supply bill. However
commendable the latter may be in itself,
it will have no counteracting effect. The
reasons given for signing the Aqueduct
bill arc simply audacious. The Cover
nor's andacity may be attributed to blind
ncss or desperate hardihood, or Il combi-
nation OF the two. He has simply yielded
to political pressure, and attempts to put
Il bold face upon it. -! z. ny
