MIR. Cleveland has an itching
partiality for men whoare not Dem
ocrats. For example his late Secre-
tary of the Treasury, Mr.. Chas. S.
Fairchild, spoke and voted against
the regular Democratic ticket in
New York the other day, and did
his level best to elect Tom Platt's
Republican ticket. Then, again, it
will be remembered that an obscure
MIR. Endicott was likewise a Cabi-
net Minister of Mr.. Cleveland's; and
now he comes to the front and saws
he will not support Governor Hill.
Of course not. 1t is not expected
that Endicott and persons of his
kidney will support any Demo
crat for the Presidency who will
not make Endicott his Secretary of
par. Enaieote and Isairebiid, and
some other people, are Democrats
for what they can get out of it.

Nobly Gave Up 500, 900.

During the lifetime of William G.
Ralston it was the habit of that
genius for speculation to buy and
sell property in the names of his
friends with no record or writing
to show his connection with the
transaction. After his death 1 hap

appointed to try and find out what
had become of about s11, 900, 900
worth of property that was supposed
to be thus distributed and concealed
under the names. OF. his friends and
associates.
OF all the men in San Francisco
who thus held his property the only
one who came forward and deliver
ed it up was Maurice Dore, He
said: "This is not mine. 1t belongs
to the Bank of California.
There was not scratch of pen.
not z line or word any where IN the
private accounts of RaIston or of
the bank to show that Maurice Dore
was not the owner, and he might
have kept the property for his own
without being questioned or even
suspected by any person on earth,
Yet, unsolicited and without hesita-
tion, he stepped forward and deliy-
cred into the hands of that commit
tee property that brought to the

The Paris Times, which has de-
nounced David B. Hill ON every
conceivable occasion, has the manli-
ness at last to admit "Governor Hill
did splendid service in the cam
paigp so successfully closed there
last Tuesday evening, and deserves
to be honored. 1t is safe to say that
he has risen high in the estimation
OF the Democrats throughout the
country" Under David B. Hills
leadership the Legislature was won,
the ticket was elected and a gain
of ten Congressman made. For
nearly seven years he has led the
Democrats of Now York and never
to defeat. He has demonstrated
that New York is Democratic
without the aid of mugwumps and
mugwump theories. The Demo
Gratis of New York are for Hill for
President in 1892, and Just as Ger.
tain as the year rolls around the
delegation from the Empire State
will go to the National Convention

A Pension once scandaI.

Aside from his conniyance with
the rerating frauds, there was moth
ing about Tanners administration
of the Pension Office worse than
Commissioner Raum's allowing his
son John to solicit pension business
on the strength of the latters re.
lationship to the head of the bureau.
Johns circular, which he is scat
tering over the West, arc getting
into the papers, and it appears that
he takes pains in all of them to saw
that he ais the SON of Green B. Raum,
the present Commissioner of Pen
sions, and will attend to all business
of the firm CWilkinson & Raum) at
Washington" Naturally this ap.
peals powerfully to the soldiers,
particularly invited in these circu-
lars to patronize the firm, who have
"claims on file for pension and have
been unable 70 get the same through
to final settlement" 1t is more
scandalous than ever was Tanners
poor, liberty-loving tongue. s.

lNavasota Tablet

New York has fine Presidential
timber in David B. Hill. He is ag-
gressive, born fighter, and posses
ses sense of personal and political
gratitude. Had Cleveland possessed
a fragment of the same quality he
would not have led his party to ruin
two years ago and hamPered us
with a Tariff bill, a Land bill and
perhaps Force bill. Hill is the
leading Democratic politician of the
country-that is, a working politi-
clan; and such is the style of man
we want.

the blue and white, the Persians

when he got home at night there
were four drums beating in front Of
his house, and the drummer boy was
prompt to inform him:

purchase a toothbrush. The pro-

Views on the New Democratic
Candidate For President.

There should be united efforts on
the part of the Democracy for the
election of David B. Hill as Presi-
dent ofthe United States. He de-
serves it and more. There is no
time for Cleveland sentiment, as he
has once placed the Democratic
psrty in a precarious position,
and should not be given another
opportunity.
Where was Mr.. Cleveland when
the battle was raging? The echo
answers where? Where was David
B. Hill2 lie was at the front, and
from the small majority for MIR.
Warwick, McKinley's opponent,
he was needed. This comparison
speaks for itself. There should be
no silent Democrat as standard
bearer in 1892. The South has been
loyal to Cleveland, but his action in
this last campaign bespeaks him un-
grateful and not deserving the 10y
atty that has heretofore been paid
him. Look at Mr.. Fairchild, his
Secretary of the Treasury. That
gentleman allied himself with the
Republicans of New York City in
an attempt to defeat the Democratic
party. Was he doing the masters
bidding?

He Would be Married.

A letter received from Protest
ant missionary in Labrador gives
an amusing instance of the print
tive manners of the. residents OF
that inhospitable coast. The writer
went to see a wedding at an out,of-
the, way fishing village, The popu-
lation is very scattered and both
BRIDE and groom had several miles
to travel to reach the parish church.
The bridegroom was on hand early
and stood chatting at thesdoor with
some of his friends, but as time
passed and there was no sign of the
bride he began to look anxious.
Finally, after waiting for nearly
an hour, the young man went into
the church and had a whispered
conversation with the cure
The latter announced that
the bride not having kept her word
he would have to seek another for
the disappointed groom from among
the congregation. He called upon
any of the young ladies who were
willing to marry the young man to
stand up. Five young ladies, all OF
whom had some pretensions to
beauty, promptly rose to their feet,
and the young man having selected
one of them, the marriage ceremony
was performed. .saa

Of course there are hundreds OF
good reasons why David Bennett
Hill, the ablest exponent of the un-
terrified Democracy alive to-day,
should receive the Presidential nom
ination in 1892, but we have space
for only few of them just now.
The first reason for his selection is
he is an available, ,stanch, ,dyed-in- the
wool Democrat. The second, be-
cause he is safe, sound and right
upon the tariff issues. Third, be.
cause he is an uncompromising foe
to all trusts, combines, and monopo-
lies. Fourth, because he is an ac.
tive and practical politician. Fifth,
because he is man of the masses,
for the masses. Sixth, because il
nominated he will be elected, hav-
ing never been defeated by the peo-
pie. Seventh, because he has dem
onstrated his capacity for leader
of men. Eighth, because he has
the courage of his convictions, and
says so at home and abroad. Ninth,
because he is holy terror to the
Republicans, neither asking or Civ
ing any quarter. Tenth, because
he believes in individual freedom
and State sovereignty. Eleventh,
because he will leave no stone un,
turned to be elected. Twelfth, be-
cause he will be certain to turn the
rascals out.
