William Lloyd Garrison for Cleveland.
William Lloyd Garrison, son OF
the great abolitionist, is hearty sup
porter Of Cleveland on the tariff issue.
He is On eloquent and scholarly man,
and is making powerful speeches for
the democratic ticket in the East. In
recent address at Cooper union
hall, New York, he said;
We have the unusual spectacle OF
u leader in the presidential chair.
With q courage not common in poll
tics, Mr.. Cleveland has planted him
self and his reluctant party upon a
platform of right aud progress. Any
politician of shrewdnoss would have
predicted personal and party defeat
from the message which has turned
the whole country into a debating
club. Nor can [ withhold an admir-,
alton for the sturdy independence
that insisted on forcing the issue in
language ringing with sincerity. The
avalanche of prejudice hung above
his head, and no dared tho heroic
whisper that might bring it down.
It has not buried him yet, nor shall
it, if the American people can appel
ciate a manly appeal to their reason
and better sense. Let us make bis
lesson an encouragement to future
presidents. The right way IS tho
s&fa way.

Almanac.

The word almanac is from the Arabic arti-
Giles al and manach, to count; word received
by the European nations from the east, de
noting book or table containing calendar
of the civil divisions of the year, the times
of the various astronomical phenomena and
other useful or entertaining information.
Till a comparatively recent date. this addi-
tional matter consisted of astrological pre-
dictions and other analogous absurditles.
The Alexandrian Greeks had almanacs The
first printed almanac was composed by Regio
Montanus, a pupil of Purbach, in l415. After
that they were composed and printed in l4S7,
14ol and 1924, from which last date they
we're pretty regularly issued.
