NCleveland's Dilemma.

The animation that the dependent PEN
sion bill, which has already passed the
senate, will be tied up in the house in
order to relieve the president of the al
ternative,of signing or vetoing it will not
elevate Mr.. Cleveland in the respect Of
those before whom he has been lately pos
ing as a courageous friend of the old sol
diers. Helhas already shown himself UNI
willing to:sign any dependent pension bill
whatever, and now that the senate has,
much 10 his surprise, adopted his views
as expressed to Grand Army leaders, and
Incorporated them into ar unobjectionable
measure, he is confronted with the dis
tasteful alternative Of having to sign a
bill to which he is opposed on general
principles or of stultifyipg himself by
vetoing it.
These courses are equally unpleasant to
him, and that Ile should seek to avoid both
of them by having the bill pigeonholed
by his friends in the roomsof the house
committee is rot at all inconsistent with
the policy which he and his party followers
have pursued ON other questions. 1t is
entirely safe to say, however, that any
such disposal Of the pending bill win
bring Mr.. Clevelands grotesque masquer-
aiding as the old soldiers best friend tc q
final and rather ungraceful ending .-Phila

Irishmen Now Vote Inte,lireut,y.

The day when the Irish vote could be
counted as solid factor in elections has
gone by. Irishmen now vote very much
as other American citizens vote. They
take different sides They have different
views as to the fitness of candidates and
az to what is best for the country. The
Democratic politician who assumes that
he is to receive the votes of all the Irish
men in his state, city or district is noA
well informed concerning the current Of
events. The Irish vote is split up and
rent asunder. It is no longer led by
bosses. An Irfshman thinks for himself.

Some or the Achievements OF the Grann
- Old Party in Thirty Years.
~ When the Republican party came into
control of the government they were con-
fronted by an armed rebellion; the au-
thority of the nation was defied In nearly
one-half of the Union; they were opposed
by hostile and rebel government; the
army and navy Of the Union were dis
persed; the arsenals were depleted; the
treasury was beggared; the credit Of the
government was destroyed, and all this
was the work of the Democratic party.
The Republican party proved equal to the
perilous situation.
They denounced southern notification.
They declared secession impossible.
They affirmed supremacy of the nation.
They called out the militia to sustain
The laws. .} .--'l
They raised enormous armies and navies
10 suppress the rebellion.
They encouraged enlistments.
They raised money to sustain the war.
They emancipated the slaves.
They sustained and upheld President
Lincoln. E.8e Y
They conquered the rebellion.
They preserved the Union.
They were merciful to the captured
rebels. F E.4 ht
They disbanded and restored the vast
army to peace footing.
They adopted the constitutional amend.
ments giving freedom, the franchise and
civil rights to the slaves.
They cared for their soldiers widows
and orphans. #M
They found war and restored peace.

They abolished the wildcat currency

They have saved the people from the
loss of millions of dollars each year in
broken bank bills. IS
They have saved the people millions
each year by making the currency Of
equal value in every part of the country.
They have restored the credit of the
government.
They have reduced the interest bearing
debts of the nation 1921, 537, 194.

They made the greenback worth 100
cents ON the dollar.
They have fostered American industries.
They have protected American me-

They have handled the money of the

They have proven themselves to be the
true friends OF the country when all other
parties and factions were,its enemies.
They have made the name American re-
spected in all quarters ofstke world.
They have secured for the Union fore
most place among the nations Of the world.
And all this the Republicans have done
in the face of Democratic obstruction and
hostility.
Why'should a party with this record
give place to party that opposed and re.
sisted these measures ct every step, and
would, IL possible, have defeated every
one of these Republican acts of wisdom,
to which. the country today owes its unity
and prosperity?
