Extract from silva in Inter Ocean to
Grover Cleveland: Independent self
achievement has not been a noticeable
feature of your life. You have been the
instrument by which others have achieved
success rather than the architect of yonr
own fortune. Had not the ambition and
skill OF another-a real though unassum-
ing master of the politicians art-chained
you to the chariot-wheel of Democratic
success, you are well aware that, instead
of being on your triumphal way to the
White House, you would now be enjoying
the undisturbed seclusion of batchelor
quarters in business block in Buffalo
The form Of the power is quite sufficient
for you. As Governor of the state of
New York, it is very well known that,
despite your boastful assertion OF inde-
pendence you have been the most timor-
Gus and obsequious Of subservient figure
heads. One whose ambitions is wise
enough to prefer the substance of power
to the semblance of authority has domina
ted your intellect, controlled your volition
and made you half-unconscious puppet.
You naturally look to this shrewd and
sagacious man-this born prime minister
to take you crediably through the diff.
cult part that has fallen to your lot.
Whoever may compose your Cabinet, he
will be the councillor on whom you will
rely. All that you will ask is that he
should allow you to potter over insignifi-
can't details, whimperingly relate to those
who care to listen the tribulations of your
official state, and so perserve to the care
less onlooker the precious fiction Of actual
mower

Col. Pat Donan the irrepresslble and
who is irreprehensible in his attacks upon
Vest. Of Missouri, gives that muddy wa
ter individual his just dues. Read what
he saws: "And who is this fellow that as
pires to lead the national councils in the
persistent denial of all these just and reas-
enable petitions? Who glories in the
shame ofinstigating and defending these
fragrant outrages upon noble territory
and its nearly halfmillion citizens ?-Who
strives to trample under swinish feet the
pearls of Of peoples rights and dearest
interests?-Who froths at the mouth at
every mention of Dakota name, and de-
lights to empty the slop- buckets of his
senatorial malignity and talsehood upon
the fair fame Of as queenly region, and
as worthy race of men and women as
ever the sun shone on? Who and what is
he?

Trades and clerkships.

There are more mechanics now, APP
parently, than the world has use for.
Everywhere there is enforced idleness,
and skilled labor is but little better off
than unskilled muscle. 1t is possible
that if We had commenced in this coun-
try to give our children trades a gu arter
of a century ago, we might have kept
out the supply Of foreign tradesmen, but
it IS now too late. Foreign mechanics
flood the country, and they have come
here to stay; we can not compete with
them; and if we could, there is no dis
position on the part of the American
youth, or that of his parents, for the ac-
QUESTION of trade. He will be a clerk;
he will not be mechanic, and that ID
the end of the matter.

1t is more than personal qualification to
learn of 4. Caldwell's (of the Sioux Falls
Press) appointment by the governor as
auditor of the territory. This gentleman
is one of the brightest ornaments of the
Journalistic ranks in the territory, and has
we'll earned his position We believe in
distribution of such appointments among
men who merit them by residence, work
and effort expended in developing and
building up this magnificent territory.

in that look the latter saw they had soldier
and man of nerve to deal with The Twenty
first was at that time in command of the lieuten-

tiers, assumed the reins at once, and 1T was not
long before insubordination was effectually
stamped out of the Twenty first. and more
gallant or effective regiment was never organized
in the State.
What gave Grant prominence in this city be-
fore he went to Springfield was the fact that he
had been called upon to, and did preside at an
enthusiastic meeting held there two or three
nights after the news was received that Sumter
had been fired upon. Before that he was COM
paratively obscure-in fact was known by name
to but few persons in Galena. After this he
assisted in the formation of the Twelfth, drilled
the companies, and helped to embark them for
the seat of war. Gen. A. L. Chetlain, now of
Chicago, was the first man to enlist in 10 Daviess
county, and went out as captain of company in
the Twelfth He did not afterwards become

sketch OF Grants military record
