Two Months of Cleveland.

Two months ago, on the 4th inst. :,
Mr.. Cleveland became President. 1t
months is not very long time, but
it has been long enough to enable
the new chief magistrate to give the
country ground upon which to base
a judgment of his character. He
has distinguished himself more by
what he has abstained from doing
than by what ho has done; yet it is
apparent that he is far from being
a negative man. There is now no.
body to accuse him of want Of
strength of mind. There were many
who did so during the canvass and
up to his Inauguration. MIR. Cleve-
land is a surprise-a very disagree.
able one to one class Of people, and
an agreeable one to all the rest of
the population. Only the citizens
who till the field of politics for the
sake of the harvest of offices, have
been seriously disappointed in the
President. There are, OF course,
many old gentlemen who, while
seeking 10 offices for themselves,
vet deem the course of Nature inter
fered with because every Republican
official has not lost his place. now
that a Democrat President has at
last been installed. These Bourbon
worthless, who laid in their stock OF
ideas before the war, and have added
but little to the collection since,
have had their political morals cor
rupted by the evil example set by
the opposition party. They were
more bewildered than surprised,
however, and when usage loosens
the stiff joints OF their aged intellects
they can be trusted to swear by
Cleveland, no matter what Ee may
do. The Republican Bourbons are
even more confused and troubled.
For twenty years they had been
prophesying and believing that the
return of the Democracy to power
would at once result in massacros Of
the negroes in tho South, the repeal
of the thirteenth, fourteenth and
fifteenth amendments to the Con.
stitution, the payment Of the Con-
federste debt, free trade. fat money
and a general wreck of the republic.
Mr.. Cleveland, they tnd-and not
altogether to their grati6cation-is
not a fulfiller of prophecy. Since he
has sat in the chair of Washington.
the Government has gone on much
as it did under his immediate Repub-
lican predecessor. Signs of the cat
aclysm confidently looked for by the
Bourbon Republicans are not per
ceptible even to the eye Of faith.
Neither, on the other hand. are
there visible any aigns Of the millen'

man whose honesty, uprightness and
respectability have never been ques-
toned. and his opinion in this mat
tor is justified by undisputed and
undisputable proof. l hardly think
Good Templars would support a
man for President whom they would
not associate with in their homes, or
their lodge room, but aside from
personal objections there arc many
objections to Cleveland's official re-
| cord, and as many to the machine
be represents. He has neither the
virtues of q man or the ability of
statesman to recommend him.
Blaine.-A representative Ameri-
can; vigorous, bold and outspoken
his position is never shrouded IN
mist or doubt. Politically he has
always been in the front rank of pro
gressive ideas Iu his early life he
espoused the cause of the weak and
down-trodden, has always been a
champion of human rights, of good
government, Of temperance princi-
Piles, and temperance practices, and
to his personal influence as much
perhaps as any one man does Maine
owe her proud standing as temper
ance commonwealth. As protec
tor of American industry and Ameri-
can supremacy, BIaiue is the peer of
any. Why then should we prohibi-
tionists throw away our votes on a
vagary, shadow without substance,
an isolated idea, while there are, in
fact, but two candidates in the field, ,
and but one of these in sympathy
with us or our effort? Why aid our
worst enemy by useless loss OF en-
ergy? 1t seems to me the Apostle
Paul had these extremists in his
minds eye when he wrote, "Some
among you have zeal, but not unto
knowledge" I am, therefore, of the
opinion that it is for the best inter-
ests of the temperance cause that all
temperance voters, especially Good
Templars, cast their votes for Mr..
Blaine, there being really but the
two to choose between. IG a close
or doubtful State it would be quite
possible for sufficient number of
votes to be thus thrown away to give
the electoral vote to the candidate
who represents the lifelong enemies
of all temperance effort. l am a
prohibitionist of more than thirty
years active work. and now that
light seems almost in sight I am not
willing to throw away all and yield
up the work because all cannot be
obtained at once. Great reforms
cannot be accomplished in a day.
More can be accomplished by sober,
steady work, by educating public
opinion, than by any great political
hurrah" on the plea Of principle"
without any chance for success. I
consider the movement of St. John
and his party as unwise, and posi-
tive injury to the temperance cause,
and 1 doubt not if all the prohibi.
tionists in the United States we're to
vote on the question more than
three-fourths of them would vote to
condemn the action of those who put
a prohibition ticket in the fold.

and the gain OF the past five years by
6,253 inhabitants, a little short of
200 per cent. In 1880, Seattle was,
in population, the second town in
the Territory; in 1885, it is the first
by several thousand inhabitants.
There are six times as many as there
were ten years ago, and nino times
as many as fifteen years ago.
If the city has done we'll, the
county has done better, and this is
not the least gratifying statement to
make in this connection, as the
healthy growth of the town depends
largely upon the growth of the sur
