A Campaign OF Morals.

An attempt has been made to make it
appear that there is some hesitation or
Inconsistency in the support Of Mr.
Cleveland by the Independent Republi.
cans because of the filthy abuse of him
which has been conveyed through the
country by some newspapers that have
made sewers Of themselves, and by q
broken down and disreputable preacher
who had no character to lose.
The contrary is just the case. Such
men as Beecher, Carl Schurz, Horace
White, George William Curtis, the edi-
tor of the Boston Herald, Col. Thomas
w. Higginson and Rev. William Hayes
Wafd, Of the New York Independent,
have investigated for themselves the
charges against Mr., Cleveland, and are
satisfied that there is nothing in them to
render him unworthy of support. If the
issue is made his friends stand ready to
prove that he has as good a character
and quite as fair reputation
for private morality and upright
ness of personal conduct as any
man the Republican party ever ran
tor president, and better than some
whom 1t elected. In all that makes for
good citizenship, social purity and per-
sonal character, his past record and his
present standing in the community
where he is known, is as good as those Of
James q. Blaine; and better than those
of John A. Logan. IL the issue raised
by the Republicans is insisted upon
there will be fine array of their hides
hung on the fences Of the political tan
yards from Lancaster to Augusta.
A very excellent illustration Of the
way in which the present state of the
canvass is viewed by men of pure
morals and discerning judgment is fur
nished by the following private letter
written to one Of the editors of the In,
TELLIGENCER. The writer's name is not
given, but his permission can no doubt
be secured to furnish 1t II any one doubts
the statement that he is distinguished
author and teacher in religious de-
nomination noted for its purity and
light. He writes
~ am a staunch Republican, and
have been ever since the organi.
zation Of the. party. But l go for the
Democratic nominee for president this
time with all my heart regarding him
as a far better representative of sound
Republican principles and honest politi.
cal methods than James G. Blaine and
more worthy, therefore, of the high office
of president of the United States"

THE Independents of the country in
their pursuit Of Blaine will not be bafie I'D
by the cutie fish actions of his henchmen,
who have started an alleged scandal of
eight yea-s ago concerning Gov. Cleveland
in the hope of diverting attention from the
political sins of Blaine. In manly fashion
the Independents have investigated thu
record of New York's Democratic
governor, and the committee that under
took the work of discovering the true in.
wardness of the situation unanimously
bear witness to the high moral character
OF the Democratic candidate. The scandal
boomerang is already recoiling on its
projectors in the shape of warm sympa.

THE Washington monument, which is
now completed with the exception of the
roof, will be 555 feet high when it receives
the latter addition. 1t will then be 80
feet higher than the spire of the cathedral
at Cologne, which is now the highest
structure in the world. The idea of the
monument was first broached August 7.
1888 and many weary years have come and
gone before the structure reached its
present dimensions. When James Bu.
chanau was young member of Congress
in 1916 he made strenuous efforts to start
the monument in the House, but failed.
The corner stone was laid July A., 1S4s.

Seed Leaf-Whatever opinion may be
expressed as to other cities in regard to
dullness of business in the cigar leaf

their expectations, and far ahead in

Please Yourself First.

A certain MARI ed pair were discuss
ing the propriety of giving wedding
present the other evening. and, as
might happen in the best regulated
families, failed to agree as to the object
and price. The lady desired to send
cut-glass pitcher; the gentleman scoffed
at this idea. declaring that nothing but
silver would satisfy his taste. After a.
very animated session, which finally
terminated in the usual way-tears and
cigars-m madame said she should buy
her own present AMI monsieur might
suit himself. The next morning. how
ever, repentance seized both parties,
though still sulk;ng with each other,
and the gentleman, hoping to ''make
up with his better hal, selected on his
way down town a gorgeous cut-glass
Jug, writing his wife's best wishes on a
card and dispatching it to the expectant
bride. An hour later out sailed the
wife, only intent on buying what should
please her spouse, and thus heap Goals
of fire on his recalcitrant head. TIE
result was costly gold-lined silver
salad bowl, accompanied by the best
wishes, ETC., written on the gentleman's
visiting pasteboard, which was duly
forwarded to the same address as that
of the cut-glass jug. At night nothing
was said OF this Joint maneuver, each
one wishing to surprise the other by
showing the note of acknowledgment
when it should arrive. 1t came in due
course of time. but it came not alone.
The postman brought two notes. which
so bewildered and mvstified the re-
eeivers that they INDUCED in another
debate, that ended even more disas-
trously than the first. The lady de-
clares she will never again make con-
cessions, or wedding presents for that
matter, and the gentleman take- refuge
in SAYING: 1T was just like woman!''
Moral: Don't try to please anybody
but yourself!-B0sto,s Gazette.
