Boston Herald, Jan. 30.
Our Washington letter from "Temple-
ton" in to-day's issue, presents to the
American people picture of their Presi-
dent as he is. This correspondent, as
New England readers know is one of the
fairest writer's, as well as the most ex-
perienced and capable observers of public
men and affairs, now connected with the
press of this country. He isnot given TO
''gushn on one hand, nor to cynicism on
the other. When, therefore, he records
his conviction that President Cleveland
is one of the greatest men, in point Of
character and purpose, who have ever
filled the executive Office, the
reasons for his Judgment are deserving
of attention, and will command it,
The Presidents frank and straightfor-
ward talk to our correspondent is in
itself revelation of character and a
declaration of purpose such ms have not
come from the White House in any un.
official utterance since MIR. Cleveland
entered it, my purpose, said the
President, twas announced ut the begin
ming of my administration. meant
then to adhere to it. / have never
changed it. do not mean to change it
in the future" His reasons for forming
and for adhering TO this high purpose are
enthusiastically simple aud strong. We
commend the Presidents utterances tc
the Democrats of the country, to the
Republicans of the Senate, and to the
lovers of patriotic courage and fair play
of whatever party.

The People Versus the Monopoly.
New York Herald,


New York Herald.
The main issue in the telephone con
troversy is between the people and the
Bell monopoly. The Pan-Electric matter
is mere side issue, to be dealt with on
its merits. Whatever scandal there may
be in it, the Bell Western Union Gould
clique and their organs cannot succeed in
their attempts to use it as means of
diverting public attention from the con
trolling issue or turning the purpose of
the government from the chiet end in
view. 1t has been charged that Bell
was not the inventor of the tele
phone and that his pattern was
obtained by fraud. If that is true
the government has been swindled and
the people robbed. The patent should
be declared void, the monopoly abolished
and the people relieved from the e,tor-
tionate eXactions now forced frcm them.
Specific proofs have been produced to
support this charge. The proofs have
been twice held strong enough to warrant
trial of the issue. The matter has
never been investigated by judicial
tribunal. The question cannot be tried
IN any case now pending. It can be
tested and settled only in suit brought
for that purpose by the government
of the United States. 1t il a
plain duty which the government
owes both to itself and to the country to
bring such a suit promptly and prosecute
it vigorously. Whatever may be said of
MIR. Garland's connection with rival
company, that connection cannot be al
lowed to stand in the why of bringing the
suit. What the Pan Electric or any other
half dozen rival companies may gain or
lose by the result of the litigation is not a
material consideration. The contest is
not between any or all of these concerns
and the Bell monopoly, but between the
public and the Bell monopoly 1t is in
the interest of the people TINT the govern
ment must move. If the patent is set
aside it will he fel the benefit OF the
people.

Won Rn,o,y,. &C., Ecco.,,.,.,,


If the stories told of him are true, Hans
Won Bulow is getting erankier day by day.
1t is related that during his last concerts
tour, as he was about to take his scat at
the piano, he saw some very plain women
seated near the platform. At thet he
walked OFF tue stage, and TO his managers
inquiries and entreaties said: "Until
those ugly women are removed will not
play note SO you may do as You please
about it, The manager stepped up on
the stage, announced that Herr Won Bulow
had become suddenly indisposed, and
the orchestra would play symphony
which was to have been played later in
the evening, While the audience looked
on IN wonder he had number of palms
ana shrubs from the conservatory near
the concert room placed between the plat
form and the audience. Then calling
Bullow to the wing the manager asked #
the view snited him. ''Oh, yes, that's iii
right, quietly said the great musician
"as long as don't behold those monsters
of uglincss l am quite Indifferent TO INV
surroundings. And without any more
ado, the capricious composer went on the
platform and performed his share of the
programme.

Hattihl'io DeiS vows.
The facility with which ''cool wayes'
were shunted of in directions different
from those nj which they were apparently
aimed last summer, suggests that this
would be a good time for ''Old Probs' to
leave the switch open for the same pur
pose just now. All will remember the
provoking regularity with which we were
tantalized with false hopes and burning
disappointments during the torrid season
six on seven months ago. With hot ewes
and parched lips and painting throats
sweltering humanity would then grab the
papers and read that relief was at hand;
that nice cool wave, fresh and
crisp from the Manitoba refrigora-
tor had started out, aimed sqlarely
at us, and would reach us in SO
many hours; how We looked for it and
famed all night and crawled out in the
morning only to see the skies still ed
hot, and then read that that wave, upon
which our hearts had been set had turned
on and gone down the st, Lawrence or
the Mississippi or some other valley.

Hnn a Real Effect on the Girls.
N Y. Sun.
The girls who go to the theatres must
have their idols, and the four just now ON
dramatic pedestals happened to gather to-
gether. They were ood.looking quartet
though no halos were visible around their
heads, and they would have attracted no
especial attention if deprived of mimic
heroism. In three instances they had the
additional advantage of London birth,
enumeration, and manners, which Is
great deal in the estimation of the New
York doter on Juvenile actors. There was
Kyrle Bellew, the new leader of the Wal
lack company, resembling Henry Irving
little, with his smooth face, rather
long hair and stiff naturalization. Mr..
Bellew is not virile, but the girls are in
clined to adore him. Two fellows on
whose upper lips the exigencies of the
stage had left moustaches undisturbed,
and who resembled each other except that
one was brunette and the other blond,
were Robert Mantell, who was playing
Lorisin town TO the Fedora of Miss Fanny
Davenport, and Herbert Kelley, the first,
Juvenile at the Madison Square. II need
not be told which of them. If he had
raised his hat, would have revealed the
shocking fact that, unwigged in private
life, he was nearly bald but ii should be
written that every man of the four has o
wife to prevent him from reciprocating
the affection of the susceptible auditor.
