Mr. Cleveland does not possess the fac
ulty of concise, pointed writing in his pub
lie documents which some of his earlier
open letters gave reason to hope for. The
obvious criticism on his annual message.
the essential portions of which are printed
in this paper, is its extreme length, several
columns which are omitted being devoted
To dry details of foreign affairs and to com
ments on department reports which add
nothing to the clearness or force of his rec
concentrations. In its general scope and
effect the message is sensible business like
and unpretentious, but on several essential
points it lacks definiteness of expression.
born either of lack of conviction or of fear
to offend those of opposite views.
His remarks on the Canadian fisheries
question throw no new light on the subject.
but simply acknowledge the threatening at
titude in which the course of the dominion
authorities places that country toward the
United States. The position of Mexico in
the Cutting case, he says is an untenable
one and the Executive hopes the good sense
and spirit Of fairness of our sister republic
will lead her to abandon it, The most in
teresting part Of the message and that in
which he comes nearest TO indicating a line
of national policy, is that in which he dis
cusses the tariff and the necessity for a re-
ductlon of revenue taxes but his convic-
tons do not lead him to the length of pos
tive recommendations His party. he
knows, is hopelessly divided on this issue.
and 1855 and another national election are
already looming up in the near distance.
he is as decided a year ago in condemn
ing the folly of piling up more silver dol
lars
His grasp Of the Indian question is clear
and well-defned. He evidently does not be-
leve with the army officers that the only
good Indian is a dead Indian on the con
trary, under the changed conditions of
these later times they are a part of our
body polite and it is the duty of the gov
eminent TO train them with patience and
trmness into the ways of civilization and
good citizenship. The Mormon question,
which the President wrote upon so vigor-
ously year ago, seems to have dropped en-
tirely out of his mind for he makes no
mention of it.
On the subject of pensions Mr., Cleveland
takes a wordy and roundabout way to Jus
tify his course in vetoing private pension
bills-a course in which he was probably
right in the main. His remarks on the la
Dor question are not Illuminating His dec
larations in favor Of civil service reform
are as strong as could be wished, and he
wisely refrains from complicating the sub
ject by showing how grossly inconsistent
many of his own acts have been with the
true spirit of this reform
Vermont phÅ“nix. [volume] (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1834-1955, 1886-12-10

this. his last chance. for favorable consider
alton for his revenue reform scheme
The high protectionists viii contest the
ground stoutly with Mr. Morrison and his
free traders. and between the two will
stand men like sherman Of Ohio and Dawes
Of Massachusetts, who are convinced that
there should be tariff reduction to the ex
tent of putting ON the free list all articles. -
sugar. for instance among them-which
enter into production or universal use aud
are bearing tax which is unnecessary.
The contest will be lively one. but the
conflicting interests are 50 many that there
is small reason TO look for material changes
To have been made in the revenue laws
when the day for final adjournment arrives
and the Forty ninth Congress has become
