AT the meeting Of the FIRST annual General
Assembly ofthe Democratic Societies of Penn
sylvania 10 Philadelphia. President Chaaacey
F. Black ascribed Mr. Cleveland defeat 20
the corrupt use OF money al the polls, He
fell. saws President Black, "cut down by
venal treacbery and overwhelmed by the
tide of monopoly's corruption. But his
cause is that Of the people and must IN the
end prevail New standards are daily
planted. said the speaker, beside the old
ones and streams Of sturdy new recruits take
permanent place beneath them. An event
Of the meeting was the reading OF a letter
from ex President Cleveland, in which poliu
cal societies are commended as valuable ed
ucational agencies. There never was
time, = Mr.. Cleveland afiirms, when in the
interest Of good government and national
prosperity they were more needed. The
political situation Is such as to call for deci
ded action in the line Of Democratic princi-
pies. This is no time, SAYS the leader of
the Democratic party, "for the search after
makeshitts and temporary eNpedieuis. We
as a party are enlisted in the cause of the
people and patriotism. Duty and party sue.
cess require that we should be consistent and
steadfast" Like all of Mr.. Cleveland's ut
teranees, this letter is clear and to the point.
