Crandail, chairman ofthe Democratic

wrote aletter to State Senator Foster,
leader Of the anti-lottcry faction in

lowed to participate: the said election
to be held within thirty days, and if
q majority voting at the primaries
favor the submission Of the lottery
amendment to the people, the Gov

within thirty days after the said cleo
ton. You viii, Of course, under

oULTFICATION---1s92.

/ Il is q little carly to discuss inc
presidency, but '92 is coming all the
same. so here is mild estimate OF
Harrlsen's qualification for sec
ond term: A President who sits
aloft thwarting the will Of the peo-
pie, and dreams Of an indefinite ex-
tension Of his lease ofpowerthrough
the continuance Of something like
anarchy in the Southern half of the
Union, should be ineligible even to
a first term Of four years. Freedom
itself is worthless without order and
an honest, intelligent National adj
ministration, Harrison hasn't got
a cabinet capable Of administering
anything like fairness to great
Nation.
How is it with Grover cleveland?
After his first term, he returned to
his countrymen crowned with honor
elected too after a heavy Republican
majority had ruled for over twenty
years. This was proof alone that
he was worthy Of his victory; be
was fearless in the exposure q
wrong, bold and earnest in the adj
vocacy Of truth, Jealous for the
good Of the whole country, and fore
most in everything that promised
to advance the interest Of the Ameri
can people. A man that placed hi
words and his actions above all sus
pieion, and even those who wer
compelled to disagree with him re
spected his sincerity and regrette'
the necessity Of difference.
While at Washington he showe'
