GOV. CLEvELAND.-Spe Speaking of the
character of this gentleman and his con-
duct in office, the New York Times (Rep. J
says:
SIN no way has Gov. Cleveland shown
greater care and industry, or a more con-
scientious regard for all public interests,
than in his treatment of legislation. If
anybody has cause of complaint on this
score, it is not the working man, but the
political jobber who wastes the substance
which is the fruit of the laborfof the COM
munity. The opposition comes really from
that class, and it Is wonderful how little
ground for it there is that can be presented
in shape to command respectable assent.
1t is the inter poverty of their resources in
trying TO make case against him that has
led to the despicable trick of attempting to
father their hostility upon the working
men. Let any one try to gather from the
allegations Of the politicians whose enmity
Gov. Cleveland has won by refusing to
yield to their selfish demands any real rea-
son for not trusting him with the care OF
public interests, and he will find the effort
futile and conclude that their opposition
springs from causes altogether creditable
to the Governors integrity and courage.
The facts which make him Objectionable
to the Tammany leaders are the real sour
oes of his strength with honest and intelli-
gent people, who favor man with whom
the great interests of the country would be
safe. Those who are influenced by the
sordid and selfish considerations which con-
troll John Kelly and his henchmen include
buta small class Of voters, though they
make good deal of noise when congre-
gated together. Against them is to be set
the great mass of the voting population,
who have no interests to serve that are moi
involved in the common veal"

CALL FOR THE DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS
SIGNAL C0NNENTI0N-TE
DISTRICT.

At meeting of the Congressional Com
mittee of the Democratic party for the
Tenth Congressional District Of Virginia,
held in Alexandria on the goth of June,
1884, it was decided that the convention to
nominate candidate to succeed Hon. ]. r.
Tucker in the National House of Represen-
tatives (49th Congress) be held in the City
of Staunion, on Thursday, 1884, at IL
o'clock.
The Democratic county chairmen of the
Tenth District are therefore requested to
issue calls at once for meetings, in their re-
spective counties at a time and at places
usual to the voters, to select delegates and
alternates from their respective counties.
The basis Of representation will be the
vote cast for the Democratic Legislative
ticket last November, and one delegate
and one alternate will be chosen for every
hundred votes, or fraction of a hundred
over fifty, that were cast for Democratic
members of the General Assembly in No
vember last, 1888. That is to say
The county of Augusta and city Of staun-
ton, 40 delegates and 40 alternates.
The county of Allegheny, T delegates

The county of Bath, 5 delegates and .
alternates.
The county of Highland, 5 delegates and

THE MooN.-The July moon fulls on the
9th, to-day at II minutes past o'clock
in the morning, standard time. Onthe 17th,
two days after the quarter, she is near Nep-
tune, and on 10Th near Saturn. On the
21st, the day before new moon, she is near
Vehus. On the 23d, the one-day-old moon
is near Jupiter and Mercury. On the Goth
she is in conjunction with Uranus and Mars,
thus passing each planet in turn, and show
ing the order of their position in regard to
the sun. The old moon draws near Nep-
tune, Saturn and Venus, morning stars on
the suns western side. The new moou
draws pear JUPITER Meccucy, Uranus aud
Mars, evening stars, on the SINS eastern
side.
The Moon occults only three small stars

The National Democratic Convention.

This is the day on which the National
Democratic Convention meets in Chicago
to nominate candidates for President and
Vice President. We still hope that the
ticket will be Cleveland and Mcdonald, but
are satisfied that if they select others as
the standard bearers that they will be good
men. for all are such who are prominent as
candidates for nomination. We prefer
Cleveland and Mcdonald, not only because
we believe they would be elected, but be-
cause they represent more emphaticany
than others the policy of reform that the
people desire, and that is needed to give
the country better and more honest ad-
ministration than it has had for twenty
years. The mantle of Tilden has fallen
upon Cleveland, and he represents in his
person and acts the policy of reform that
gave Tilden sufficient strength to be elected,
and the same reasons that influenced the
people to elect Tilden would influence them
to elect Cleveland. The same element that
is now opposing Cleveland in New York
opposed Tilden with eqral vigor; sand the
same element that supported Tilden is now
supporting Cleveland, and as it elected Til
den, so it will elect Cleveland, if he be NOM
mated, as we think and hope he will. He
would carry New York in spite of the OPP
position of Tammany and disappointed as
pirants for Office and spois under the admin
istration of Cleveland as Governor of New
York. The very fact that he has had the in
dependence to do what he believed to be
right, even in opposition to influential mem
bers of his own party, and to walk fearlessly
in what he conceived to be the path of duty,
will give him strength by attracting to his
support the better clement of both parties
He will be supported by that element o.
the Republican party that desires an honest
administration and has no hope of getting
it III the event of the election of Blaine anC
Logan. AS Tilden was elected Governor
of New York, and by the reforms he effected
SO commended himself to the people as tt
cause them to elect him President; so like
wise Cleveland was elected Governor o
New York, and by his reform policy has 81
commended himself to the people that the.
wish to make him President, and, if nomi
mated, they will elect him as they did Til
den, except by larger majority, and vii
see that he be inaugurated on the 4th o
next March. Should the Convention, il
its wisdom, nominate Cleveland for Presi
dent and Mcdonald for Vice President, w
believe that they will be elected, and tina
the country will enter upon new era 0
liberty and prosperity.

Public RObberies.

Never in the history of this country has
there been 1.-THE of the public robbing that
have signalized the administration of the
government under the Republican party
Not only has the public treasury been I'M
lawfully depleted of millions upon millions
of dollars, and that by every species OF vii
lainy from the Credit Wobilieg. to the Star
Route frauds, running through series OF
years but, some of these numerous pecu-
lations and conspiracles against the tax
payers Of the country have been traced al
most to the Executive Mansion. A Secre-
tary of War was expelled from the Cabinet
for being guilty of population. A Vice
President had to be retired forever from
public life, in consequence of his share in
the Credit Mobilier swindle. An Assistant
Postmaster General had to step down and
out, because of his guilty participation in
the Star Route infamy. These were only
some of the larger swindles, and do not
cover the multitudinous cases of subordi
nate officials who have robbed the peoples
treasury, corrupted our whole public SER
vice, and yet gone unwhipt Of justice. AS
the New York Times well says
'sThose who were indicted and scores OF
others who ought to have been indicted, are
not only jubilant, but they are all striving
to keep in power the party whose leaders
and representatives allowed them to escape
the punishment so richly deserved, and to
retain the money stolen from the Nation S
taxpayers. They have been led to believe
that their fortunes and those of the party
are bound up together Assisted by thou
sands of honest but misguided men thel
haze secured tie nomination Of their .fGrOr-
tie. With him in the White House, they
have nothing to fear, for if the people
should become inquisitive, a vigorous for
D. eion policy would divert their attention
from jobs at home.
s'Now it is possible that thousands Of
thoughtful men who have hitherto support
ed the Republican party have had their eyes
opened by the Star Route investigation ant
the record Of subsequent events and by the
proof that the Republican party is not able
to punish its thieves. It is possible thai

Governor Cleveland says I'VE do moi
claim to make laws for other countries, but
we do insist that whatsoever those laws
may be, they shall, in the interests of hui
man freedom and the rights of mankind
so far as they involve the liberty. of oul
citizens, be speedily administered. We
have right to say, and 90 say, that mere
suspicion without examination or trial, is
not sufficient to Justify the long imprison-
ment OF citizen of America" Now this
strikes all reasonable people as sufficiently
explicit and emphatic to satisfy the most
ardeut friend of Ireland that if President,
the Governor would use the whole power
of the Government to protect the rights Of
any American citizen who might be arrest
ed in Great Britain. Mr.. Blaine couldn't
well go beyond this, if he tried.
