At this late day anything like a eulogy
of Grover Cleveland would be work of
grotesque supererogation, and yet, inevita
bly,, one feels that the nearer glimpse of
the man afforded by this work must elevate
him in the esteem OF all thinking men.
This book is not work of apology for
any of Mr. Clevelsnd's acts; and yet the
real facts of certain parts OF his life which
have been seized upon by his enemies t.
beiule him or put him in an undigniled
light, show very clearly good purpose
anu clear sense From his elevation to the
Presidency, the career of Grover Cleveland
belongs TO tue history OF the nation, and
i is needless to rehearse il In these col>
umns. The criticism of this biography
however, upon Mr. Cleveland's work rs
Governor, being largely matter Of fact, Is
well worth reprinting.

The Presidents Success.

The attempt of the presidents critics
to impeach either his motives or his acts
has its sole foundation in the desperate
straits of the Republican party. 1t organs
and orators select his veto of the depen-
dent pension bill because they hope to
control the soldier vote by false repre-
sentations and to revive the prejudice
which once vented itself in clubbing all
Democrats "copperheads They fail to
see that the Office of the political resur-
rectionist has been abolished; that the
victory of 1884 was the beginning of a
new cycle; that Mr., Cleveland represents
an era of new issues; that the old things
have passed away, and with them the
fears and animosities of the past. No in
tellisent man believes that Mr. Cleveland
has an unpatriotic thought or ambition.
No intelligent person can read with pa
tience the impotent attacks upon his
Americanism and loyalty. He takes his
course in sympathy with the feelings and
aspirations of the people, and those who
marvel at his success betray their own
blindness and lack of sagacity ty.-Brooklyn

The September Forum (Which begins
the sixth volume) contains review OF the
republican National Platform from Dem

of Ky Plank after plank Is taken up and
discussed by the light of the Republican
party's record To this number the Mar
quis of Lorne contributes stuoy OF the
government of the United States, the result
Of his observation while he was Governor
General of Canada He writes with en>
thusiasm about many features of our gov
ernment, and points out many reasons whv
he regards republican government as
stable. The third of the series of econom-
ic articles which convey the latest inves-
tigatiOns of MIR. Edward Atkinson into the
condition Of American capital and labor, Is
the NEST instructive that he has yet writ
ten. He shows nv diagrams how the wage
worker IN the Ubited States has steadily
advanced and how capital continues 70 re
ceive a diminishing return. The Rev. DR.
Munger, perhaps the leading Congrega
tional minister in New England, points ont
the benfts that reli gion has received from
the death of many superstitions caused by
the scientific spirit Of the time. There are
seven other articles in the initial number
of this new volume on such subjects as
Social Discomfort. the Effect of High EX-
ploslves In Changing the Methods of War
the Management of Railways, the Public
Schools, and the Increase of the Alcohol
Habit.

The dear clothes and cheap whisky
organ says: The Republican platform
does not demand or ask the repeal of the
tax on olcomGrgarine, and the Republican
party is utterly opposed y any such re-
peal" Read that part of the Republican
platform which relates to the abolition of
the internal rcvesIe:
If there shall remain a larger revenue
than is requisite for the wants of the gov
erume..t we favor the entire repeal of
the internal revenue taxes rather than the
surrender Of any part of our protective
system, etc.
1t is not simply the tobacco and whisky
revenue tax that is to be removed, but
"the entire repeal of internal revenue
taxes" The free whisky organ goes on
to say that tax on oleomargarinc and
other substitutes for butter was adopted
for regulatory purposes and not for reve-
nue., and will remain in force without
regard to tie course that may be pursued
with respect to internal taxes that
were levied for revenue purposes.
That is to say, the vast machn.
cry of the internal revenue department
will be kept up at great expense simply
to collect a small tax from few bogus
butter manufactures and dealers, after
the internal revenue tax is taken from
whisky and tobacco. That is too trans
parent. The Republican wiseacres in
congress are too astute to leave the ma
chinery of the internal revenue depart
ment in existence simply to gather in the
votes of the farmers. When any feature
of the internal revenue taxes is dispensed
with all will 90. The free whisky organ
knows this as well as any one, but it
fears the effect such repeal would have
upon the vote of the farmers and dairy
men.-Cleveland Plain Dealer.

publicans are largely responsible for it in
most of the southern states. They main

ocratic vote III any northern state would
soon disappear under such a policy. There
is interest enough, and full vote and a
fair count in the charter elections at the
south, with both races divided according
to their interests or convictions. The
same result would follow complete
abandonment of the old sectional cry and
