Extracts from Cleveland's Veto Message-Dependent

soldiers, who have conten,edly resumed their
places in the ordinary avocations of life, justly re-
gard the present pension roll on which their names

with those who through such a bill as this are
willing TO be objects Of simple charity, and to
give . place upon the pension roll through al

posed law under any Interpretation a wide field
OF inquiry would De opened for the establish
ment of facts largely within the knowledge OF
the claimants alone, and there can be doubt
that the race after the pensions offered by this
bill would not only stimulate weakness AMI
pretended incapacity for labor, but put a further
premium on dishonesty and mendacity.'

He outianks the American by cheap living.
But the idea Of anything cheap is repudiated BY
your American laborer. He looks at the style

any but the choicest of beef. the superine -four
and the choicest coffee to a miner or mechanic.
He will have not the best in reality, but the
most costly. He calls constantly for higher
wages, and does not see that his high wages

Mr.. BLAINE referred, in his New Albany
speech, to the Offensive conceit which always
marks the theoretical free-trader." This pc.
euliarity Of the free-traders is one encount-
cred by all students Of the tariff question.
There is no estimating the number of men
who have been influenced by this assumption
of superior intelligence to vote on the other
side. They want protection from the free
trader as well as protection for their indus.
