President Cleveland's Record.
brooklyn Eagle.l
But the true merit of his Presidency seems
to us to consist In the holiness of his off,
cial ideal and the frnness with which he
adhered to it He bTaved every thing for
the sake of the standard he had set up.
Friendship, the obligations Of gratitude, the
desire to help those who had helped him,
the edgencies Of bis party and the pru-
dence that leaders who expect to win are
imperatively required to observe were sac
Tificed co his fetch. It may have been fatal
statecraft or insane politics. or Tashness
which his political relations converted into
crime, but it was after all heroic In SUI
pose. He declared that public Office is
of all the contempt which that dec
laration has provoked will vindicate his
claim, to the honor of having upheld it He
was IS honest as he was brave and as reso-
lutte as he WIS incorruptib1e and the public
officer of whom that can be truly said pos
sesses mantle. which indulgent Justice will
suffer to cover multitude of minor sins.
There is this also to be observed of his adj
ministration that it is one the virtues of
which will stand forth in sharper outlines as
time adjusts the focus of our vision. There
are latent Impressions in it which the rays
of calmer Judgment than we can now
command are certain to develop. He has
builded perhaps better than he knew, for in
the seed of every noble example there are
germs that come not to maturity with the
common harvest but slowly quicken and
bud and flower and shed fragrance for
those who live when the sower has passed
away - e 49,

Bait for tho Monopolists.


But, these considerations aside, 1t is inter
esting to note that the new President has
precious little to say about the dear work
Ing men. However, they may find compen-
sation for this apparent neglect In his
warnings to the trusts and combines to
keep within the law. Further consolation
may be gained from his implied promise
that the surplus shall be spent In subsidies
to American ships and in the building of a
great navy. The evil of q surplus is recog-
nized, yet it does not alarm him, and he
would avoid it. not by cutting of taxes, but
by increasing expenditures No violent
hand shall be laid on the protective system.
That must and shall be preserved whatever
else may befall Its benefcence Is to be
carried to the gate of the cotton plantation,
where the factory shall shadow the gin and
the compress and furnish a precious home
market for the products of the honest plant
or. 1t is the old, golden promise repeated
In pretty phrase and it is uttered by Gen
eral Harrison with apparent sincerity. He
couples it with illusions to the suppressed
vote of the negroes and artfully suggests
that It those who want to enjoy tariff
bounties will pool their issues with the col
ored voters the hopes of all may be realized

What Harrison Does Not Say.
IN. Y. Worid.1


President Harrison, while rejecting a.
together the suggestion of special Execu-
tive policy for any section Of our country"
nevertheless has q hundred pointed words
to say OF the alleged denial of the right of
voting to negroes at the South to one word
of feeble reference to the corruption of the
suffrage at the North. Indeed, there is not
in the address one word of honest denuncia-
taon of the wholesale buying of votes which
IL as notorious fact as the disappearance
OF the negro majoli tiles The address does
indeed say that IAN unlawful expedient
can not become a permanent condition of
government" 1t Is to be regretted that the
Intimate relations OF the new President with
Morton, Dudley, Quay, Wanamaker and the
other contributors and users OF Doodle pre-
vented him from uttering the truth that the
corruption of the ballot-box is Is .sunlaw-
full an expedient'' es the suppression of
votes.
President Harrison's utterances upon
Civil-Service reform are little more than an
admonition to the spoils seekers to be pa
tent There is nothing in the President'e
words that can be twisted by even the most
sanguine reformers into an Endorsement OF
the fundamental principles of this.reform.
Indeed. ofice-seeking is commended, and
the intmation is plainly conveyed that
party services constitute valid claim to
reward.
The Presidents attitude towards the tariff
Is, In brief, to keep up the war rate, and to
use its undoubted advantages to its rich ben
eficiaries as a means of capturing some of
the Southern States. u
There is not in the address one earnest
word infavor of stopping the surplus by re-
ducing taxation. ''Wastefulness, profligacy
or fayoritism in public expenditure" is de-
nounced, but the President plainly init
mates his belief that there Is no especial
Is \
spending is evidently to be the policy of the
new AdminiStr alton

A1r. Harrison's Inaugural
fCh,caOo Giohe


The reader of MI. Harrison's inaugural
lions of the party which elected him to the
tective tariff, as is entirely natural for the
protectionists engaged In the effort to elect
him as If 1t were struggle for life. The
necessity for a reduction of the surplus Is
admitted, but ways Of securing that meas
ure of safety are suggested which will not
touch the sacred ark of the tariff. A small
corner of the bloody shirt is unfurled but
there is no violent call for o crusade under
that crimson banner. More liberal pen
sions and the establishments of subsidized
steamship lines are suggested; Congress
men are urged to be honest in recommend
ing persons for appointments while recog-
nizfng honorable party service" and a few
words about the Cfvil-Service law are said
possibly to discourage the expected and
Inevitable rush for offices.
Both houses of Congress are of Mr.. Harri-
sons party, and they will therefore be able
to execute any policy upon which he and
they can agree. During the term of his Adj
ministration there can be no divided re
spOnsibility for the acts of the Government.
In that respect the new President has de-
cided advantage, which was not enjoyed by
his predecessor. During his entire official
term Mr.. Cleveland was confronted by
hostile Senate, that effectua1ly barred the
way to every reform desired or attempted
by the Democratic President and House of
Representatives Now there is nothing to
obstruct the full realization of all the ex-
pectations and hopes which stimulated Mr..
Harrison and his party in the November
contest For good or i'll, they are supreme.

Civn-Service Reform.
fChicago Herald.1

The most interesting feature of the speech
of Inauguration is the reference to Civil
Service reform It is easy to notice that
General Harrison owes nothing to mug
wumpA No man need fear dismissal be-
cause he has sought the interests of the Re-
publican party. The zealots of that side Of
public affairs are not to turn In terror from
Harrison. They may shake of the alarms
that beset good Democrats in Cleveland's
time. Smooth out General Ha<risOn's
smooth sentences as we may, there is still
the satisfaction, sweet for Republicans that
the victor is better man among victors
than is the vanquished ALI the President
begs is time. IF the gentlemen win stand
back they shall all be served
The boyle OF tax reduction is as hightful
to General Harrison as to any mill-owner
whose money carried Indiana Yet the Ex-
ecutive does not doubt that the Congress
which he has neglected to call IN extra ses-
sion will a year from now, be able to re-
duce the revenues without seriously inirr-
ing" any domestic industry now taxed Let
it be so hoped

As to the Tariff I" Revival"

The first of these was exactly at the other
end of the century; the general average of
teen per cent The Calhoun tariff increased
the average duties to about twenty-five per
cent The Clay tariff pushed them up to
about what they are now, and the abomina-
lions tariff carried them actually no higher.
The compromise tariff reduced them some
what the reduction was maintained under
the Wing tariff, and the Walker tariff pro-
vided for an important gradual reduction.
The war tariff, enacted in 1851 as war
measure only" and maintained during
twenty five years Of peace az a protection
measure only, is the heaviest protective"
tariff the Republic ever has been con-
demned by the spirit of monopolistic greed
to endure. Undoubtedly q revival Of the
far lower Hamilton tariff at the other end
of the century would be great National
blessing; but is that what Messrs. blaine
and Harrison mean? Plainly, they can not
mean that So.
Entitled to the Peoples Gratitude.
ALBANY On. W August
The calm Judgment of the American peo-
pie and the verdict of history, when re-
corded, will be that Grover Cleveland
brought the country back to an under
standing of and affection for the simple
principles of our government, upon which
the fathers designed it should be admins
tered How far passions and wrong pur-
poses, which disturbed the country for
years before they broke out In civil
war, and for years fingered: after the
clash of arms itself was stflled, had
obscured in the popular mind those
elementary principles of our Govern
ment, every thoughtful man must realize.
Their presence yet is felt, and strong
" felt in thu cuxrents- Of public and
political life. But by an administration,
capable and honest In every branch, the
people have been shown that government
by the people and for the people is better
than government by part of the people for
part Of the people, be the division on lines
OF geography, of class or of party. That
lesson has been taught and has been learned
and, in spite Of contradiction at the polls
It will not be forgotten -
President Cleveland may retire from OF
fee cherishing the hope which Washington
cherished. that his counsels and his admin
istration have made their impress upon the
people; that they win recur to mind to spur
men to better endeav0r and to more loyal
devotion to free government. and with the
assurance that mighty people is gHatefni
to him for his services to it

A screed of Parrot-Like Echoes.

t1nulduaOOnS ScntincEI
Coming down to modern times. the now
President tackles the tariff. He goes in
strong for monopoly taxation, as was to be
expected. He looks hopefully to the con-
tinuance of the protective system. - which is
what the tariff rings put him in the White
House for. He processes to believe that IL
we keep up our Chinese wall our manufact-
urfng interests will increase although the
factories already in operation can produce
as much In eight months AZ the American
people can consume in twelve, and the
Chinese wall prevents them from disposing
of their surplus to The outside world But
President Harrison always was muddled
upon this subject He has no clear conyic-
lions regarding it, and what he Says are
mere Y paKrot-hke echoes of the utterances
Of the spoliationists who made the platform
at Chicago. and kindly allowed him to stand
upon it All Harrison knows about the mat
ter Is that he is against any reduction of the
monopoly taxes, and that r. anybody mo
poses to increase them he II bound to saw
amen to the proposition
