Cleyeland's Democracy.

President Cleveland's 8 party fealty is ques-
tioued. There is great difference between
the abstract claim of democratic principles
and the demonstration of it in practcs
Theoretically only is Mr.. Cleveland Demo
crat. Practically he is nondescript.
He was elected President of the Unteu
States by the Democrats of this country in
the full assurance that from his own Office
down to the most obscure feceral post til,
people would see practical demonsti alton o.
what Democratic administration means
This expectation has not been fulfilled. IL
has been contradcted upon occasions too
numerous to mention. No wonder there is
dissatisfaction all around. Mr.. Cleveland
has not kept faith with the implied bargain
by which he was eleceed President. IL is
futile to suppose that he did not fully un-
derstand what was expected of him. To the
extent that he has abstained from making
the present administration Democratic one
in its fullest phases, to that extent he has
broken his vows of election to office. The
Democratic party elected him to Office but
Mr.. Cleveland has not kept his part OF the
unwritten, but not the less binding, com
pact.

Indecent Stories.

The White Cross Army is newinstitution
originated in New York whose raison d'etrs
is that of "mauly purity"
1t has made its debut under the auspices
of the Young Mems Christian Association.
At their meeting last week in Association
Hall, 800 young men made an enthusiastic
audience, they greeted with hearty applause
the appeals of vigorous speakers who, it is
related, handled the subject of ''manly pur-
ity" without gloves. All of the speakers
dwelt with force upon that rule of the Army
which insists that the law of purity shall be
equally binding upon men as upon women,
and an appeal was made upon society TO
raise its moral standard.
1t was claimed by Mr.. William Blaikie
that a pure mind dwells best in a well-train
ed body Mr. Moinay Williams took up the
cudgels against indecent language and vul-
gar stories, and made an emphatic warning
on their hold in modern conversation. Cap
tain Jasper T. Goodwin, ofColumbia College
boating fame spoke upon the "Companion-
ship of Young Men," and urged his hearers
to dehar impure acquaintauces from theiI
homes and to shun their society, Mr.. Cleye-
land II. Dodge, of football renown at Prince
ton, gave a ringing speech on "Pprsona
Purity as Related to Success in Life"
In regard to the above all decent people
will concede that there is nothing m IRE de
testable in our every day society than these
''tellers of good stories." They are tn,
balm and poison of social existence among
the male sex. 1t is this fact that negativel,
affords the pleasure of the pure atmospher
of the other sex.
There is no more difficult pest to be evict
ed from cur midst than this good fellow,
who is always SO ready to illustrate with hi
f foul anecdotes. There is no more insdiou
poisoner of the morals of poung men tina
this sinister individual. 1t is the fashion t
tolerate him, Let manly purity denounc
n him.
= There should exist among us sufficient
strong code of self respect to resent IL
filthy raconteur. AS the speakers in Ne
y York argued-what right have we to demar
IS high code of moral atmo phere is tolera

Anlusements,

Next Monday night the petite, graceful,
pretty little Corrinc, who has won the title
"Queen of the Stage" will commence an
engagement Of one week at the Opera House
supported by Jennie Kimball and her famous
Merrie Makers, in select repertoire Of their
popular successes. On Monday night they
will present "'The Mascotte," with Corinne
as Bettina, a character in which she is said
to be unequaled. There are forty artists in
the company, combining youth, beauty and
talent, and there will be a change of opera
every night. As the admission will be but
10, 20 and 80 cents, or so cents for reserved
chairs, there is no doubt but packed houses
will be the rule.
The New York Tribune says of this tai
ented young actress Corinne has lately
been so prominently before the public thai
it is unnecessary to inform our readers as tc
who she is. OF her performance, we car
truly say that it is wonderful. In th,
amount of work which she does, as well a
in her manner of doing it, she excels an

Sheriff Ford.

A good word is due Sheriff Ford before
we part with him in his public position as
Sheriff of New Castle County.
1t is extremely gratifying to be able to
truly and honestly praise him for his excel
lent administration of that prominent office.
The position has its dificulties-and that
in direction not always thought of. 1t
must be attested to Colonel Ford's lasting
honor that he has been solicitous, careful
and tender to the unfortunate debtors whose
business and private ill-luck brought them
under the constable's clutches. And even
to the still more unfortunate, those who m
the iron hand of the law has condemned to
extreme punishment Mr.. Ford has cared for
with the most uuobtrusiye consideration.
In every department of this most impor-
tant county office Sheriff Ford has left a
most enviable record. "...-
