4 CANDIDATE KHO sd RgR.

9Af
Globe Demoerea: The Democr4ls are
beginninR realize in aIverg sharp
way the disadvantage Of saving pre-
sidenhal candidate Oe small caliber and
merely local repu tation. There can be
little doubt that If the matter were TO be
done over again to-day, with the light
that lie now turned on, Mir. Cleveland
would not by any possibility b oOmin-
ated. 1t is clearly apparent that be Is
not the man he ives supposed 20 be, and
that instead OF strengthening the party
he is embarrassing and weakening
1t In all directions. he was taken en-
tirely on account OF his locality. and be-
cause IL wAs represented that he could
certainly carry New York. Not one In
dozen Of the delegates who voted for
him knew anything about his record, or
had ever heard OF him previous to 1882.
BY one Of those unAccOuntable freaks for
which Democratic conventions are not
ed, he wns perferred oyer men Of recog-
nized ability and worth solely on the
superstition thaG his election as governor
of his state by an extraordinary msjorl-
ty was q guarantee Of superior strength
and popularity.
It did not occur 70 those hasty dele
gates to analyze the causes which brought
about that remarkable majority, or they
would have understood that IL was a
mere accident, with which Mr.. Cleve.
land had nothing to do except as he hap
pened 70 be on the ticket at the time
and TO receive the votes that would
have been given to any
other reputable citizen who
might have been put forward in
such q relation. The vote of the next
year, when the Republicans secured the
legislature and cut down the Democra
tic majority more than 80 per cent
should have been sufficient to apprise
the convention that Mr.. CleYeland'i
boosted victory in 1882 was no proof Of
personal strength on his part but
that, on the contrary, the peo-
pie took the first opportunity to say
that they cared nothing for him. and
had no intention of promoting him OF
his interests any further. And If this
were not enough. the delegates might
have learned. by a little inquiry, that
his course as governor has been unsatis-
factory even TO his own party, and favor
able at every turn TO the rings and mo-
nopolies.

The action of the noble women who
have been laborIng for the last half Gen.
tury to elevate the morals and advance
the civilization of America, in declaring
for the national Republican ticket, IS a
timely and scathing reprimand to the
slanderers who have sought to besmirch
the fair fame Of James G. Blaine, and to
place him in the light of foul corrup-
ZIONIST before the public. On all the
great moral issues which lie at the very
foundation OF sound government. the
women OF this republic are
in advance of all political organizations,
and the fact that the champions of prog
ress in all of Its best forms are willing
to entrust the administration of the gov
eminent TO the hands OF the gallant
standard bearers of the Republican par
~ Is the best possible warrant of the fit
ness of those leaders for the fulfllment
of such trust. There is a remote pos
sibility that Mr.. Cleveland embodIes ali
of the personal and political purity with
which he has been invested by the In
dependent reformers; but somehow, il
seems to US that 3 candidate would be az
safe in accepting a clean bill of health
from the hands of Elizabeth Cady Stan.

Atchison Champion: The steamship
FL Paso was launched at Philadelphia
last week, and so a once obscure name
becomes famous. For three hundred
years the Mexican town OF Ell Paso de-
Norte, the Pass of the Nor,h," dozed
in the sun on the sandy banks
of the RIO Grande. For forty
years the Texas hamlet OF franklin,
duller than the adobe town across the
river, slept In tie midst Of sand and mes
quite bushes. For all the world as far
of as Philadelphia Knew of them, these
towns might have been two villages of
serfs in the interior OF Russia. But the
railroad came, and the town of Franklin
found out that il stood in q gateway of
commerce and borrowed from its tawny
neighbor the name, FL Paso. Then an
other railroad came from the north
came through the pass and threw a
bridge over the red aud
rushing Rio Grande, and the
locomotive woke the narrow lanes and
the sun dried plaza, and the little gar
dens fenced with red-tiowered cactus,
and the rows of whitened adobe houses
with their portals, that go TO make NJ
Ell Paso del Norte. This wrought the
change. Where the railroad goes every.
thing goes. Telegraph wires sing in the
wind, and street cars go jingling from
the United States TO Mexico and bach
again; and now half the world hal
heard, and the other half Is des
tined to hear of FL PasO.

OLEVELANDs CHARACTER.

CLEVELANDS CHARACTER.
N. Y. DISPATCH 10 Cincinnati Commercial
Gazette:
Next to moth ing has been said here
about the publication Of personal scan
dat recently made by the Buffalo Tele-
graph and the Cinclnnati Enquire. The
daily New York paper that published it
was the Journal, which islmOre adven-
turous than dignIfied, but there seems
to be an abundant supply Of the Buffalo
paper, and there is talk OF looking upon
the subject seriously. The trouble
about The publication Is that there
are so many specifications. ANY
slanderer can; tell a lie, or many
lies, in general terms about
an enemy, but mere SANDER doesn't usu-
ally abound with the names of persons
and addresses, names of streets and
numbers of houses, names of lawyers
and merchants and ministers Of the gOs-
pei; and there are Democrats who will
insist that the terrible story about Cleve-
land shall not be showed aside as IN
worthy his notice and beneath the con-
tempt of all honest men and women
The Buffalo story is one that is hard to
handle, and the current explanation vol
unteered IN behalf of Mr.. Cleveland ii
IN some of its phases rather worse
than the original. 1t would b
rather embarrassing, fancy, if Mr.
Cleveland should be called upon BY
Democrats he could not afford to ignore
to notice the Buffalo publication. Mr.
Beecher, it may be remembered, undo
like distressing circumstances, declineC
to clear the atmosphere by confession
though strongly urged to do so by thos
who thought they could clear him an,
his friends. But then Mr.. BeecheI
though phenomenally poor politician
was not candidate for the presidency
and If he had been he would hardly haV
| been elected.

IAN extended sketch of Governor
Cleveland's life was printed in the Pail
Mall Gazette two weeks ago under the
following head line; The Next Presi-
dent Of the United States New York
Times.
Exactly. Every paper in England ia
vors the election of Cleveland because
they know the Democratic party favors
throwing down the bars and permitting
the products OF the pauper labor OF that
country to shut up the manufacturing
establishments Of the United States. The
Time Is In the interest of importers, and
the destruction OF the tariff would vast
lY increase the importing business. 1t is
not hard to see the point.-Cincinnati

Eureka Herald: The Senatorial con-
vention met July % and nominated
Judge l.. B. Kellogg, of Emporia, for
Ltate senator. Judge Kellogg is an old
and respected citizen of Lyon county,
and will poll large vote in this dis
trIct. His election Is assured by the
pronounced Republicanism of the can
didate as well as by his standing as a
man. Rumor has it that an independ.
ent candidate proposes to take the field,
but that is piece OF folly that will moi
materially injure the prospects of Judge
Kellogg. The independent business
does not pay when a nominating con
ventlon is harmonious and the platform
and candidates are accepted by the regu.
lar nominee.

Mr.. Halstead, Of the Cincinnati Com
mercial Gazette, telegraphs from New
York as follows:
do not overstate the matter when 1
say that the best informed here are of
the opinion that Blame will come out
even with Cleveland In the city of New
York, and that he will have an unpar-
alleled majority in the-country. Reports
from the strong Republican counties are
that they will all give increased majorI-
ties. Some of Blaine's friends two
months ago besitated as to the propristy
of nominating him for the presidency
because, according TO appearances, the
state of New York was against him. II
was easy to say that he could win
without New York, but it was hard 10
see how he could do it.especially If in the
face of the country New York was sur
rendered in advance. Now there is no
state more confidently and IntelligentlY
claimed for Blaine than New York. The
current of public judgment and snthu-
siasm is all his way. The Incompatible
blunderings of the Democrats at Chi
cago has prepared the broad road for
Blaine to the presidency. People are
rapidly falling into the habit OF regard
ing him as already elected.
