The Democratic papers are printing brief
biographies of the persons who attended
Gov. Cleveland's reception at Buffalo the
other night TO prove that the crowd was
respectable one, and that somebody's asser-
ton that Cleveland would not be counte-
nanced by the polite society of the city OF
his residence was SANDER. Cleveland, we
think, is the first Presidential candidate
whose good standing socially it has been
thought necessary to prove. Heretofore it
has been considered safe to leave that
much to be assumed.

probably go through the House OF Lords

that if the upper house persisted ia its oppo-

Special correspondents of the Philadelphia
press have been making thorough investi-
CATION of the attitude of the Ohio Germans
relative to the Presidential tickets. The re-
suit shows that though there is some dis
affection among the Republican Germans in
certain localities, growing ont of the liquor
question, it is not widespread nor serious
enough to materially affect the Republican
vote on election day. Democratic claims
that the Republican Germans have gone
over to the Democrats by hun lreds are pro-
nounced false and absurd

interchangeable Butler in nomination for
the Presidency. Then the anti-Mo-

by the Labor convention which Will
