with him the seeds of promise for a life
of future nobility and usefulness; and
Whereas, In the death of Marion w.
Smith, the Settler Springs Sunday school
feel deeply the loss they have sustained;
therefore, be it

and commend them to Jesus who doeth
all things well.
Resolved, That in the death of Marion,

the beginning of the war this gentleman
was anxious to enlist in the

cLEvELAND,s.LABoR RECORD.

A Buffalo paper says: There are some
millions of laboring men in this country
whose votes Mr.. Cleveland would love
to have. In order to get them he would
have workingmen believe that he is and
ever has been their close and faithful
friend. Has he been their friend? Let
his record speak for itself. When Mr..
Cleveland was governor of New YorE
there were quite a number Of labor bills
passed the legislature and came before
him for final action. And here is what
he did with them:
He vetoed the mechanics lien bill
making the wages of workingmen en-
gagged ID the construction of buildings a
first mortgage on the property.
he vetoed the life and limb bill, max
ing employers responsible for accidents
happening from imperfect machinery or
imperfectly constructed buildings.
He vetoed the tenement house cigar
bill, forbidding the manufacture of ci-
gars In tenement houses.
He vetoed the bill compelling the ele-
waited railroads of New York City to
charge only five cents fare.
He vetoed the printers bill, requiring
all the state printing to be done by union
workmen.
He vetoed the bill making ten hours a
legal days work for all street car en-
ployes.
He vetoed the bill abolishing convict
labor in prisons, although the PROPOSE
ton when submitted to the popular vote
of the people, was carried by a majority
of $4,000.
He vetoed the child's labor bill, provid-
ing for the inspection of factories where
the children were employed, and prohib-
ing the employment of children under
fourteen years of age.
He signed the bill compelling the sta
tionary engineers of New York city to
pay tax of 50 per year to the police
pension fund, or be debarred from fol-
lowing their vocation.
He signed the bill reducing the fees of
the New York harbor pilots, which bill
benefited the foreign steamship monop-
olies.
Since he became president he has re-
commended.and forced his party to adopt
an industrial policy whose necessary
outcome, if enacted into law, would be
to throw tens of thousands of working
men out of employment and heavily re-
duce the wages of tens of thousands
more.
And yet some people wonder why so
many ID emocratic working men in New
York threw away their votes on Ben
Butler four years ago, and are surprised
to see them rallying as they do around
the Republican standard this year. There
is no mystery about it.

Opposition to the doctrine of special

change of climate has been deemed adj
visable. Should Mr.. Hackney conclude
to leave Winfield permanently, Southern
Kansas would lose a noted citizen.

The third party prohibition nonsense

phrase, all oyer the country. Sincere

from the efforts of such impracticables,
unless it be to interfere and retard the
progress of the only party that has ever
accomplished anything in that direction.
The recent state elections show that the
aforementioned outfit ore losing ground,
and it is hoped that the good sense of the
