y After reading the letter of Grover,
Cleveland to Mrs. Beecher, it will take a
dull apprehension not to pronounce him
hypocrite and dissembler. That he is a
llbertine and debauchee there is ample
proof-that his recent history is morally
offensive to the last degree, can be estab-
lished by the most indisputable evidence.
10 believe his letter, however, to Mrs.
Beecher, he would be placed in the role
OF the Saints and pass as a man without
guile.

she, for that reason, could not be seducedl 1t
will also be observed that this denial denies
nothing.
Another fact in connection with this nasty
business is that it was taken up and given in
slant circulation by independent and Demo
cratic papers, such as the Cincinnati Enquirer,
the Detroit Evening Journal, the Pittsburg
Leader, the New York Journal and many
others, SO that, from its inception, this scan
dali has been of Democratic parentage, and
Republicans have had to do with it only as
is significant, too, that, SO far as is known,
Mr.. Cleveland, even to his intimate friends
has made no kind Of denial, and they them
selves have not denied any essential feature of
the story as originated by the Rochester
Union and enlarged upon by the Buffalo Tel
egraph aud the ministers Of that city.
The journal has dipped into this Demo
cratic mess only to show that the allegation,
that the scandal was of Republican origin
was unqualifedly false, and uttered in the,
hope that it would weaken the inevitable
force Of the revelation made against the Dem
ocratic candidate. If Mr.. Cleveland has been
scandalized it has been done by members Of
his own household and by reputable and dig
nifed ministers Of the gospel The journal
gladly leaves the entire affair to the judgment
of the people, passing no opinion on the mer-
its Of the case, and giving as authority for
the truth of the charge the independents and
Democrats above mentioned. Each and all of
these facts can be easily verified by any one
caring to know the truth, yet this will not
prevent the Democratic press from repeating,
parrot-hke, that the Republican party is
responsible for the story, The Rochester
Union of the dates named is easily accessible,
while the other matters quoted have been
published everywhere.

HAD Cleveland been half the statesman that
he should be, he would have realized that it
were fatal to ignore the tariff question. It
were folly to attempt tariff reform or any
amendment on alteration of existing laws,
without knowing exactly what the Presidents
views are. The people of the United States
are too intelligent, too well informed, not to
know that no legislation is possible on this or
any other question by a simple majority in
Congress, unless the President be in sympathy
with the measures passed. To ask the people
to relegate this great issue-and it was the
paramount issue in the last Democratic House
to the congressional district contests can be
done only on the presumption that the average
voter is a fool. What good would it do a
Democratic protectiontst to vote for con
gresham in favor of protection, if the Demo
cratic candidate for the presidency may turn
out to be free traderY Or what would be ac-
complished by the election of Democratic
congressman in favor of revenue reform if Mr.
Cleveland is opposed to changer The Presi-
dent, by his Veto can paralyze legislation
Having the force Of two-thirds majority vote
in both houses, his views are worth those
of 268 congressman, or 158 more than the en-
tire Democratic delegation from the Northern
States, including West Virginia, or nine votes
more than the entire delegation, Republican
and Democratic, from the same States. In
other words, on this great question the Demo
cratic candidates have seen fit to allow the
entire North to remain in ignorance of what
the outcome would be in case it were to vote
solidly for one or the other side of this issue.
Never in the history Of American politics has
there been such shameless exhibition of
political cowardice and incompetency.

DR.. VINCENT, one of the most influential Of

was overruled. Ten years ago band of pray

THE Freeman is the name of new Demo
cratic paper just issued in this city. Lewis
Rowland, son of the late Hon. John D. How
land, is editor and proprietor. The mechanical
execution is creditable, and the matter of the
first number indicates considerable ability upon
the part of the editor and the zeal of young
man who has broken away from the teachings Of
an honored father, and who wishes to show
that at thetender age of twenty -one he knows
more than his father did at fifty. John D.
Rowland was one of the ablest defenders of the
general doctrines Of the Republican party that
we ever had in Indiana, and on no one thing was
he clearer than on tho tariff as taught by the
Republicans The young man, however, knows
more than the father, and seems to have drawn
more largely upon the peculiar notions of re-
form, finance and tariff, as taught and prac-
ticed by some of his relatives than from the
teachings of his father We hail the appear
ance Of the Freeman with much pleasure. 1t
will do nobody any harm, and it seems to afford
the young man good deal of comfort
