The Defense Of Grover Cleveland.

Springfield (Mass.) Union.-The
principle laid down by the Springfield
Republican, to-day, in its wabbling
denfense Of its Presidential candidate
shat the chastity or unchastity Of
public men of National repute and
nominated for Office before the people
of the whole country, is not proper
subject for discussion" is novel one
to advance in this day and generation
in this community. Private and fami-
ly matters are one thing; violations
of the eternal laws of God, Of the pro-
visions Of common law, of the funda-
mental principles upon which human
society rests are quite another. The
confession Of the supporters of Cleve-
lamp that their candidate is not to be
judged by the ordinary stand Of PRO
priety in private life" is one of the
most amazing things that has come
within our observation. But there
will be difficulty in persuading the
American people that personal impur-
ity is to be ignored when a man is
presented as candidate for their suf-
frages for the chief executive Office OF
this Nation, and it is humiliation to
all good citizens that it should be
found necessary to defend any Presi-
Dental candidate against the allega-
tions Of the grossest personal immor-
atty.

Why the Irish 90 for blaine.

A good many Irish voters are begin
ing to love the Republican party for
the enemies it has made" They find
the leading English journals hostile
to the Republicans and expressing an
anxious desire for Cleveland's s election
They find Harper's Weekly, which,
for years, has been in the habit of
publishing outrageous caricatures of
the Irish people, opposing the Repub-
licans and advocating the Democratic
ticket. That journal is now trying to
help Cleveland by printing earieatures
of Blaine on his knees before the
Irishman, the latter being drawn so
as to resemble an ourang outang
dressed in shabby garb and with a
short pipe in his mouth.-MilWasSbee
Sentinel.

CHILLED!

At the beginning Of the present
campaign, the Democratic papers were
perfectly hilarious in their enthusiasm
for the Democratic ticket. They
would under no consideration grant
the possibility of even shadow OF a
chance for the success of the Repub-
lican nominees. Had they not "Cleve-
land and Reform?" Had they not
Hendricks and Reform?" Have they
not Reform painted and daubed all
over the party? What earthly chance
was there, then, for poor worm OF
the dust like Blaine, who would sit
among his children like nobody, and
who loved and honored his wife, to
succeed against brilliant reformer
like Cleveland who drank his wine
and ''loved fast girls? Oh, they were
fast having nice time, our Democra-
tic friends. They were just dying for
Blaine to step out until they could
knock his record into a cooked hat.
Suddenly there fell over the spirit
of the Democratic dream the whole
black, sickening mass of Cleveland's
record. There came up from the lun-
attic asylum-where she had been con-
fined at the instance Of her seducer-
and from the saloons where she was
trying to drown the sorrow Of a ruin
ed life, the poor, weak voice Of Maria
Halpin, like Nemesis, pointing the
finger of public scorn and condemna-
tion at the gay Buffalo Bull. Cleve-
land does not permit his friends to
give a square denial to these horrible
accus atoms, until the leading Demo-
cratic journals of New York begin to
demand it Of him. What then are
these Democratic enthusiasts-thus
suddenly chilled-permitted to say9
Simply that the country should not
mind such small matters as the pri-
vate habits of great man, and that
Washington and other celebrities
were prone to lead astray.
Now these Democratic papers have
very little to say about the possibility
of Cleveland's success, but good deal
Of valuable space is wasted in attempt
ting to shame Republican papers out
Of dipping into the horrible mess.
This pie, gentlemen, was made by
Democratic cooks, and while the Re
publicans know that it sickens you,
they will continue to serve it up to
you in generous doses. You should
have made the crust little thicker.

1t makes every humanitarian sad to
see invalids seek such relief as is Civ
en- them by the use of bitters, kidney
medicines, and other nostrums. The
first few doses may make them feel
better on account Of its stupefying in
gradients, combined with some strong
cathartic and diuretic that are used IN
its composition, but they eventually
grow worse. The only cure for weak
ness nervousness. debility, aches, pains,
rheumatism, sores, urinary and diges-
tive troubles, is to make the blood
rich, red and pure, by using DIR. Guy
Sott's Yellow Dock and Sarsaparilla,
a remedy widely indorsed by physi-
clans who have examined into its COM
position and effect.

Beechers Bad Head,

For two months in the year Henry
Ward Beecher can't preach. IN Au-
gust and September he takes his vaca-
ton and endures the onset of the hay
fever. A man with hay fever isn't
accountable for his actions. He is
frantic with snufiing. sneezing and
headache. Every nerve in bis skull
thrills with distress, and his head is a
fountain Of tears. He lives only to
fly from seaside to mountain-top in
search of relief. This form Of catarah
(hay fever) Ely's Cream Balm will
cure. Placed in the nostrils it pene-
trates and sqptAes the affected parts
at once. restores the impaired senses
and creates healthy secretions. You
cannot run away from hay fever, but
you can drive it from you by using
Ely's Cream Balm.

Having investigated for itself, the
New York Evening Post admits the
leading facts of the so-called Cleve-
land scandal, but prefers Cleveland
with this odium to the bad man
Blaine. Besides, it says, the woman
in the case was incorporate and 9TH
erwise dissipated, which, of course.
mitigates Cleveland's responsibility,
and shows how refined his tastes are
in selecting his intimates. Still what

The truth Of history" has at last
been vindicated. Gen. Grant has
written letter to Philadelphia man
in which he states that the surrender
of Lee was not made under the Ap-
pomatox apple tree, but that when he,
Grant, first came in sight of Gen. Lee,
the old man was sitting leaning
against an apple tree on the side Of
the road. The two Generals then
repaired to building within the I'm
ion lines, where the details were ar
ranged.

The Democratic politicians who
were SO verv sanguine Of Democratic
success this year are good deal like
the little boy who unwittingly stepped
into yellow-iacket's nest. He was .
big fellow before striking the nest,
and walked with the proud step Of
one who regarded himself as monarch
OF all he surveyed. But as soon as
he struck the nest, he discovered that
public opinion" was against him and
manifesting itself by divers thrusts
and prods. The Democratic politi-
clan now stands in a state of sus-
pense, and wonders what will come
next.

1t is quite amusing to hear some OF
the stories the Democratic liars are
circulating about Lively, Republican
candidate for sheriff. Men who claim
to have ordinary intelligence, at least
will solemnly tell, as absolute facts,
stories which they themselves would
soundly spank fve-year-old child for
believing. This business is being
overdone by our Democratic friends.
After all their miserable lying, the
fact stands forth, that Mr.. Lively is
one Of the very best men who ever
ran for office in the County. He is a
man Of fine education, an experienced
school teacher, a good business man,
and splendid speciman Of physical
manhood. Withal he is a polite and
courteous gentleman. He is son-in-
law of the late Elder Backus of -Four
Mile, a Ministar of the Christian
Church. Mr.. Lively will have a rous-
ing majority, and this silly Democrat
ic lying will only increase the dimen-
sions of that majority.

Leo Ebert.

In gathering up Cleveland as a
Presidential candidate, the Democracy
Just reached down into a social cess
pool and lifted him out, in the found
belief that none of his former sur
roundings would stick to him. They
now find that it is too late to wash
him.

1t has long been a favorite mode OF
attack by Democrats to traduce the
character Of some prominent Repub-
lican leader, keep up the attack con-
tinuously, and assert its entire truth
because she don't deny it." This, like
most evil practices, returns OCCASION
ally to torment its inventors.
Grover Cleveland, Democratic can
didate for President of the United
States, has been ehargedl-and by
Democrats, too, with crimes which. if
true, give him the right to styled "a
moral leper," and show him to be
more justly entitled to place in the
Penitentiary, than in the White
House. These stories-started in
Buffalo, Cleveland's home-have never
been authoritatively denied. TIE
party therefore, according to the Dem
ocratic form of reasoning, comes be-
fore the country presenting as its pres
idential candidate a dehauchee and
libertine of the most horrible type.
This is the story Of the Democratic
politicians, relative to their own can
didate, and was freely used against
him at Chicago by Democrats who
opposed his nomination.
Takip1s this astimate OF the Demo
cratic Presidential candidate as a cor
rect one, can it be possible that any
Democrat who is a respecter of female
virtue, any man who is the father Of
family, any 4an who believes in
morality aad deeency, can vote for
Grover Cleveland?
