He Prefers Cleveland.

Walker n. Thayer, President Of
the Workingmen's Assembly, has pre-.
pared an article denying statement
that he said he could pledge the vote
of the worlingmen 10 Gov. Cleveland.
What he did say was that if any man
pretended to pledge the workingmen's
vote to any candidate they did it
without authority. lie preferred
Gov. Cleveland himself because he
had approved bills aholishing the
manufacture of hats in State prisons,
creating a bureau Of Labor Statistics,
the Tenement House Cigar bill twice,
abolition of convict labor, and had
vetoed only two-the Lien Law, which
owing to errors in drafting would have
been an injury TO workingmen, and
the Car Drivers bill, which Mr..
Thayer thinks ought to have been
signed. So out of six perfect bills
sent him on labor questions he has
only vetoed one. On the strength Of
his record, Mr.. Thayer adds, he judges
and approves of the Governor and
shall support him.-Free Press.

last winter, and was still laid up from the
effects thereof.
The City Attorney was called on to give
his views in regard 10 the matter, and after
few remarks, he advised the Council not
to start such precedent, but the best way
was to take ups collection, and he would
start il with IS. The amount of the tax
was S2l.
Alderman. Campbell moved that Con-
ways taxes be paid by the city.
Alderman Owens thought that the city
had the power TO reduce an assessment. He
moved that half Conway's assessment be re-
moved, and would contribute 50 to help
pay the rest.
After some discussion the contribution
plan was adopted. A paper was drawn up
by the City Attorney and passed to the per-
sons in the Council Room. More than half
the required amount was donated, during
which the Council adjourned.

he would care and provide for his
mother and sisters, and he was just as
convinced that he should let no au-
thority, local or State, repay him for a
substitute, whose services he had paid
for himself. These are the facts and
all the facts in the case, and whether
they are creditable or discreditable,
readers can judge. Like Mr.. Cleve-
land, Mr.. Blaine was drafted like
Mr., Cleveland, he put in and paid
for substitute unlike Mr.. Cleve-
land, he collected back from the State
of Maine the sum which he paid out
for that substitute. The difference
between the two cases is manifest. 1t
is as marked rs the difference between
the two men.-Albany Argus

POLITICAL NOTES.

We do not pretend to infallibility,
but we have too much respect, not on
ly for ourselves, but also for the good
sense of those to whom we speak, to
give an opinion that is not based upon
what seems to us fair reasoning. In
the outset of the campaign, therefore,
we wish to declare il as our unqualif-
ed opinion that Grover Cleveland will
be the next President of the United
States if he lives, provided the organ
izations that are opposed to the Re-
publican nominations improve their
opportunity.-Boston Post.
Nobody can complain that the plat
form is not long enough. It is so adj
mirably worded, however, that there
appears to be not surperfuous line
or paragraph; and certainly the issues
belonging to the campaign are of suf-
ficient importance to warrant declar-
alton of principles of even greater
length. On the whole, it is a vigor-
Gus, outspoken, ringing platform, and
from every point of view vast i'm
provement on the one adopted at Chi
cago in June.-N. Y. Graphic.
The Democrats have offered to the
country clean and capable man. He
is the candidate preferred almost un-
animously by those men who bolted
the nomination of Mr.. Blaine. He
appeals directly to the common sense
of the people, and his record is assur-
ance that he will give them, if he is
elected, a safe and able administers
tion.-Atlanta Constitution.
The nomination of Gov. Cleveland
by the Democratic convention makes
the way perfectly plain and simple
for all friends of good government
who arc for any reason dissatisfied
with the Republican candidate. This
time the Democrats made no mistake.
New York Evening Post.
Mr.. Cleveland will poll nearly the
whole Of the Democratic vote; he
will get the largest independent vote
ever cast for party nominee in the
and he will, we firmly be-
lieve, be the next President of the
United States.-Brooklyn Eagle.
The Times will heartily support
Governor Cleveland. In opposing
Mr.. Blaine it finds itself in impreg-
lable ground and in excellent COM
,any. 1t has closely watched tho ca
'eer of the candidate nominated at
Chicago, and it has entire confidence
II his probity, in his intelligence, and
n his administrative ability. He
ought to be the next President of the
United States, and we believe he will
