IT transpires that Cleveland got
about 1000 votes in 1854 which
were fraudulent, and that he never
carried New York state. These
voters were inmates of poorhouses,
and as such were by law disfran
chised except at their original
homes. Blaine was, therefore,
rightfully President, instead of
Cleveland even without counting
in such states as Mississippi, Ala
bama and Arkansas, where no
election as provided for in the con-
Fstitution was held at all. OF
course it is rather late now to make
stir about the matter, as the
ssstuffed prophet has served his
term and gone home, but republi-
cans must keep their eyes peeled
for illegal democratic voting i'll
New York in 1892, not that the
electoral vote of New York state
will be absolutely indispensable to
republican success, but it is time
that strictly legal elections shall
be held in all parts of our land
The Australian ballot system is 60
ing to put stop to all such fraudu.
lent elections and for this reason
finds considerable opposition in
certain democratic hot-beds.

PRESIDENT HARR1soNS OPINIONS

delivered to congress on Monday.
although quite lengthy, contains
no useless words and touches in
telligently on large number OF
important questions now before
the people. He calls attention to
the economical management of
each of the several departments of
the government, and congratulates
the people that no money is being
squaadered uselessly in any of the
varied channels through which the
enormous sums in the treasury
find their way back to the public.
He speaks of friendly relations
with all foreign powers, and is con-
fdent that peace will not be dis
tufbed, although serious matters,
such as the Behring sea dispute
are involving considerable argu-
ment and correspondence. He is
confident that the rights of the
United States in the sealing
ground seeded by Russia will be &C
corded by Great Britain before the
Beginning of another sealing sea-
son.
He thinks the Mckinley bill
should be given a fair trial; that its
workings will result in the fullest
benefits to all our people, and that
the act has been unjustly assailed
as tending to raise prices of neces-
sites; that the policy embodi-
I'D in such legislation will secure
rs "large and more profitable par
4lcipation in foreign trade" He
asks the people not to be influenc-
ed against the law on account of
the hubbub raised in Europe over
il; that the people Of England,
France, Germany, and SO forth,
are studying their own interests,
not ours, in growing about the bill.
He thinks the result of the Pan
American deliberations at Wash
'ington last winter will be of great
importance in obtaining more in
innate relations, both politically y
and commercially, with the South
j, American republics.
He feels an interest In the indie
.bendence of the people of the
Congo, and hopes the civilized
powers will unite in suppressine
what is left of the slave traffic and
IN discouraging the wholesale i'm
4portation of ardent spirits into a
wild region in darkest Africa
which is now being rapidly depop
~,ulated by the use of alcoho
amongst the various tribes.
He depreciates the present war
fare going on between several oil
ihe Spanish American republics
snd thinks the United States ought
to use its influence on behalf o.
peace, without making itself toe
efficious.
He has proposed to the British
and Chinese governments, a plar
to regulate the passage of Chinese
Eborers across our northern and
southern boundaries, with view
to stopping the present stealing O.
coolies across our borders.
Samoan autonomy as a Kingdom
has been reorganized, with an eye
to the welfare of American pol
$ scies and interests on the Pacifi,
oceap.
- Recommends the present con
.gress to repair some injustices t.
the Honolala Kingdom growin!
out of the workings of the McKin
ley bill.
He believes our governmen
.
should take kindly to Italy's invi
.tation and participate in the Uni
xersal Meridian Conference with
ziew to adopting uniform stand
ard OF time and longitude through
cut the world.
He is gratifed with our rapid,
growing relations with Mexico, re
-sulting from the building Of Amer
lean railroads into that country

treasury for the last hscal year
were s464, 600, 900; expenses of the
government $358,5OO,00O leaving
a balance of $1O5, 500, 900 to be ap-
piled to the sinking fund.
The increased circulation of
money among the people owing to
the policy of the present secretary
of the treasury and the enormous
decrease in the national debt dur.
ing the past nineteen months are
considered matters of congratula-
ton. Receipts from internal rev.
enue have increased during the
year nearly $4,000, while the cost
of collecting it has been reduced
$4,000.
Our new navy is growing vigor-
ously. Nine new vessels of the
latest pattern have been put i'll
commission during the year, and
five more will be launched by
spring. The influence of their
prestige has already been felt
abroad. ...
He speaks of personal violence
and abuse having been offered
quite frequently to postmasters
selected by him in some portions
of the South, and has advised the
Postmaster General to abolish
Offices where appointees not in
fault will not be allowed to peace
fully perform their duty. In con-
nection with the postal depart
ment Mr.. Harrison congratulates
the people that the mail service
can no longer be used as a tool for
lottery concerns in defrauding the
public.
In regard to the Indians, he says
that the policy of allotment ol
lands in severalty to the various
tribes and the consequent reduc
ton of unnecessary lands given up
to TIE savages has been followed
so far as laws will permit.
He is glad that every useless OBJ
stacle in the way of honest set
tiers making homes on govern
ment land has been removed anc
the former policy of looking upon
every settler as fraudulent land
grabber has been discontinued un
der the present administration
The Land Office department is rap
idly catching up with its business
AS to pensions, the presiden
says all deserving beneficiarie
should obtain their just dues from
the government without delay, bu
he dislikes special pension bills.
He thinks the Mormon question
is rapidly being settled in Utah b,
swamping the Mormons with
, large flow Of law abiding immigra
ton. He is gratifed by the lette
. of President Woodruff of the Nor
man church, in which the prelat
recommends the discontinuance G
plural marriages, but doesn't pu
, much faith in Norman protesta
tions, so long as the Latter Da
[ Saints believe in the divinity 9
having more than one wife.
The farming interest he cor

!, last congress in the matter of il
