Governor Cleveland was fortunate in
retaining in his support, at Chicago not
only the pure and Immaculate Repub.
lican free-traders of the George w.
Curtis and Henry Ward Beecher stri pc,
but the thugs and the rings of New
York city and Brooklyn. He had DO
more hearty supporter than Boss -
McLau ghlin OF Brooklyn, a name syn
onymous with political trickery and
corrupt jobbery, a man against whom
decent and respectable people united to
overthrow and succeeded in overthrow
ing three years ago, when Seth Low was
elected Mayor. Mr.. Cleveland has
been perfectly acceptable to the Boss, -
and received his hearty support.
In New York city one of his CHIEF
supporters was Hubert o. Thomp son,
denounced by the New York Tunes a.
second only to Tweed
The Grand jury indicted him for gros,
negle 1T of duty by which the city LOST
hundreds OF thousands OF dollars. Bui

cal influence. A reform bill was passed
by the Legislature TO correct evils which
BOSS Thompson brought upon tn,
city, but Governor Cleveland, then will
his eye on the Presidency, vetoed til,
bill and secured The friendship o
Thompson. 1t is already asserted thai
he will be made Collector of the Port Of
New York if Cleveland is elected.
Another ardent supporter of the
Governor was Sheriff Davidson. IL wa.

NOW school Railainx.

At the meeting of the Board of Edu-
cation last evening the bids for the
or ction of new sch COL building in the
Fifth ward were rejected on the ground
that they were higher than the finances
of the city would warrant, the lowest be-
ing that Of J.R.D. Seeds & Son, amount
ing to S64, 1913. The conclusion Of the
members must be commended, rs 1t Is
wiser to keep the taxes down to the low
est possible limit than to unnecessarily
increase the same, particularly when
trade is stAgnant and the people gener-
ally complain Of dull times. Forty
thousand dollars should be sufficient to
expeld upon the erection of . high
school in our city, aud the Board should
have limited the architect to such .
sum when requesting him to prepare q
plan for the same. 1t is singular that
no limit should be mentioned ard that
architects snouIu ue eft on any occa-
sion TO rely on their own judgment OF
the proper cost of any structure.
ALI persons, however, having charge
of the erection of houses of public
character. should always remember that
they are building for coming genera
tons. A structure that may be consid-
cred quite imposing at the present time,
may be esteemed very ordinary In a
quarter or half century hence Great
parsimony in such matters may in the
end prove very questionable, as men
generally prefer commentator for taste
and enlarged ideas than censure for
pinching economy or narrow minded
ness.
Above all, work should be done in a
substantial manner and durability and
convenience rather than show should
be aimed at

A Parry % she Fraud.

Governor Cleveland Is to q certain ex-
tent responsible for the frand and vio-
lence practiced at the polls in the South
ern States, inasmuch as he has never
opened his mouth in condemnation OF
them, and is ready to profit by them.
He knows that with full ballot and a
fair and honest count that the solid
South would soon become thing of
the past. 1t is only through the use
OF the shotgun, and a strange manipu-
lation of the ballots that the Democrats
can elect their candidate to the Presi-
dency. Without these instrumentali-
ties the party would he in a hopeless
minority. The leading men, there
fore, will continue to sanction any
abuse, even murder itself, in order to
effect their purpose. Let honest voters
look at this mat ser, and see If they can
act with such men. Continued refer
ence to what is called the " Presiden-
tial steal" in 1876 shows their willing
ness TO profit by the use of the shot gun
and bloody night riders. Without such
instrumentalities South Carolina,
Louisiana, Mississippi and Florida
would be Republican, and the Demo-
cratic chances OF electing President
would be most unpromising indeed.
Only through violence and fraud can
the South be kept solidiy Democratic,
and on these instrumeptalities they are
now relying for success. Will honest
Republicans or honest Democrats sus-
tain such ou'rages OF consent TO profit
ny them in any shape or form?

Governor Jackson yesterday issued an
order remitting the sentence Of imprison.
ment on Charles Montgomery, confined In
the Wellsburg Jail on a conviction Of shoot.
ing on q public street. On Saturday,
February 9, as the food was going down,
Montgomery, who is only II years old, got
very drunk and appeared on the muddy
streets. The boys began tormenting him
and finally one OF them pushed him over
in the mud. AS he rose, he drew a revolver,
at which bystsnder caught his arm and
so held it as to point the pistol in. an oppo-
site direction and while in this position, it
was barmlessly discharged. Montgomery
was Indicted, under the act of lSS2, and
convicted OF shooting on a public street
snd Judge Jacob sentenced him to pay q
fine of 500 and be confined in Jail for
months
Yesterday Governor Jackson RENTED
the imprisonment, but allowed the fine 10
stand. The Jail, having been overtlowed,
is damp and unwholesome aud the Board
of Health certified that to allow Montgom
cry 10 remsin there would be to endanger
his life. The Governor also took into con
sideration the torn up state OF affairs at
food times and so released him from COZ
fnement, but allowed the ine to stand, for
punishment.
Montgomery was student at Lins1ey
Institute ard well-kn0wn here. His fam.
ily are all good people.
