WASHINGTON, d. c., August 27.--
Cleveland's reported contribution OF n
$4,000 check to the Democratic cam
paign fund, with an assessment on his
Cabinet officers OF amounts in proper
ton, carries joy to the Democrats, and
terror to the hearts of the Department
employees in Washington, who had be-
gun to believe they would be safe in
living up to the high standard OF non
partisanshIp preached by the President,
in refusing to give any OF their hard
earned salaries for political purposes.
Now they understand what is eX-
pectcd OF them, and whether the Presi-
dent has, in reality, contributed or not,
the story comes from official Democratic
sources, and it means that every office
holder will have to put up or be marked.
Cleveland gave the muniticent sum OF
twenty dollars to the Charleston earth
quake sufferers, and it must be con-
fessed contribution OF $4,000 by him
| for any purpose seems incredible, yet
in one case there was no personal inter
est at stake, and in the other there is
Ten thousand dollars out OF four years
salary ut $4,000 year is not so much
after ali, and If an Investment OF $4,000
will help to continue that salary four
years longer the contribution looks al.
most insignificant, What is $4,000 out
OF $500, 900, and a possible 100000?
No one can now repeat Brice's and
Watterson's assertions that Cleveland is
not helping in the canvass. He has, in
one brief week, stolen the Republican
fisheries thunder, twisted the British
lions tail, and contributed more money
to re.elect himself than all the Republi-
can Presidents put together He has
come down from his Mugwump throne
to whoop it up for the boys, and the in
terest he is taking in the Democratic
campaign is OF the liveliest character.
All this is encouraging to the Republi-
cans. It shows how strong are their
candidates, when one so conceited in his
personal greatness and strength as CleYe-
land shows such unmistakable signs OF a
panic.
It is said that altogether, from the
friends OF the President in Washington,
Slb0,Q00 has thus far been handed in'
All the contributions have been accom-
panied by encouraging letters.

WArEnvlLLE, ME., August 27.--Nlr.

but made only short speech
owing to hoarsness. He address
ed himself principally to work.
ingmen, dwelling upon the injury
which would be done them should the
Presidents tariff policy be carried into
effect. Mr.. Blaine then referred to
President Cleveland's message upon the
Canadian treaty as mere scheme to
divert the attention OF the American
people from the question OF Protection
and stop as much as possible the popular
discussion OF that subject, which he fear
cd would only strengthen the RepubIi-
can position.
The speaker believed that Congress
would not crafty the President, and
that the American people would put the
whole question over to next year, by
which time the Republican administra-
ton would be in power when the ques-
ton could be equitably settled.
Concluding, MIR. Blaine said: "fhe
Presidents machine contrived to run
about seventy days, but it will surely
work without harm to men in front OF
it, and may notadd that it is admirably
arranged to kick and kill men behind IT"

with "Blinky" Morgan in the Ravenna

he asserts that he had no connection
with the fur robbery, was not on the

that "Blinky" Morgan did not hit Detec-

Coughlin positively sta.esthat Robinson,
who was arrested with him, was not on

The citizens of Monrovia will be

Stevenson, who spent some weeks
here the past winter, became inter
ested in this matter, and the result
is that he, in connection with three of
the lie ding citizens OF Monrovia, has
completed arrangements to build q
cannery here in time to handle the
deciduous fruits grown this year. The
site has not yet been selected, but will
be at once, and the building will be
erected as soon as it can be done. All
the latest improved machinery will be
put in the factory, and it will be put on
basis to do first. class work. 1t will
be started as a cannery, and as soon
as practicable thereafter fruit crys-
talizing and evaporating department
will be added. By another year
arrangements will be made to can
all kinds of garden produce,
and the plant will be made an
extensive one, capable of handling all
fruit and garden produce raised in
this vincinity. The gentlemen in
terested in the enterprise will put
plenty of energy and capital into it
and will make it one of the institu-
tions of the valley. Monrovia may
consider herself extremely fortunate
in this matter.
The benefits to be derived are
marked, and aside from furnishing a
market for fruits now raised, it will
induce greater interest in fruit cul-
ture, and assist in more rapid de-
velopment of this impor-
tant industry than could other.
