A"Tattoo', for CieyeIand.

We do not approve as general thing
of going back into the past, and raSing
from its debris the personal acts Of men
who have made mistakes in their lives,
after they have become candidates for
public offices of trust and honor, but
there are times and circumstances under
which the whole truth should be
brought to the light and the people
should know the moral as well as the
political character Of the men they are
asked to place in office. This is especi-
ally so when that office is the highest
within the gifto of the people. The Re-
publican papers as n general thing have
so far been very careful of the character
of Mr.. Cleveland, but with some of them
