Cleveland I'm HIS own state.

The unanimity and enthusiasm
with which President Cleveland
was endorsed by the New York
Democratic State Convention gives
final and definite assurance that
every vestige of opposition to his
denomination has been swept away,
and that no other name will even be
thought of by the st. Louis conven-
ton. The unanimous action of the
convention will be great surprise
to those who believed up to the last
moment that a considerable degree
of opposition would be developed
against Mr. Cleveland. AS it was,
there was not even a whisper of
dissent to the instructing of the
seventy-two delegates to vote for
the Presidents denomination.
Whatever may be said of the
merits of Mr. Cleveland's admins
rtration or the chances ofhis re-clec-
ton, it must be- admitted that he
has achieved a great triumph in his
own state. A few weeks ago a
divided delegation seemed newt
able. AS it was, he had walkover
that is almost without precedens in
the history of Now York conveh,
tions.

Expennes al lI,e Exposition.

Cincinnati is noted for its hospital
ity. 1t is genuine, liberal and inn
partial; and this is one of the i'm
portant features generally remark
ed at times, when the city is crowd
ed with strangers. Gouging has
always been frowned down, and not
to lose this very valuable name, the
jolly bonifaces, "Mine host of the
Inn" and the entertainers in every
sphere have set their great hearted
feet down on exorbitant rates. The
hotels have, one and all, pronounced
against a rise in their prices; and
the other countless private hotel
keepers, and more modest home like
hosts and hostesses, will follow their
long accustomed policy of the best
hospitality at their usual reasonable
rates.
The Centennial Managers have
Just crowned themselves with de-
served glory by establishing an In
quiry Department; their general
suggestion is, eff you don't have or
see what you want, ask for it. -
Those, therefore, designing to visit
the Centennial, and desiring to
secure accommodations, peed only
to apply to this Board with, stamp
enclosed, to have any want, long
felt or just discovered, supplied.

The Differences g

The difference in the rate of
wages between England and this
country is wholly and solely due TO
the difference In the strength of
this competition-England is now
crowed with labor; America is not.
But, alas our American workmen.
even in the enormously protected
Pennsylvania steel rail industry,
are already beginning to feel the
direful effects of this Composition in
the lengthening of their hours of
labor and the filing of their places
by imported Hungarians when they
strike against the imposition. That
this fearful competition for bread is
on the increase is plainly seen from
the increasing ease with which the
protected employers defeat the
strikers of their workmen, by sim
ply hiring portion of the immense
tide of free labor that is pouring on
to our shores. With free labor and
taxed food and clothing wages must
continue to drop, despite the high
tariff, till America fills up and the
level of Europe is reached. Register.

Some difference.

Braxton Democrat: During the
election time, away down; South, if
a free and easy kind ofa Democrat
should tread by some luelsless acct
dent on the toes of piois, self-sac-
rifcing Republican, and the neigh
borly act should find its1way into
the press, what a mus would be
made about it. All the patriotic
soldier-citizens, who never, during
the war, could bear the sight of a
line of battle and had no taste for
the music of the field, would be
clamorous to march right straight
on to Dixie and wipe out the burn-
ing insult offered to the flag in a
foamy sea of-gush. Is 1
At an election recently held in
Boston, two young ladies were at
the polls distributing no-license
ballots. They were savagely in
suited by many voters, yet kept
steadily at work until soms;coward-
~ wretch or wrctches poured vitriol
down the back and upon the hand
of one of the ladies, burning her
severely.
And this occurred, dear reader,
in the city of high culture-in Bos-
ton, the heart of humanity and soul
of civilization.
Had it happened in the sunny
land of flowers, of the palmetto and
magnolia, hell would be to. pay.
There is some difference, after all,
between the North and the South.
