Cleveland stock took a sudden tumble
here last week on account OF the publication
OF his letter in which he takes a decided
stand against the free coinage OF silver.
Those WHO have been his steadfast friends
IN the past and who believed that he was
the man 10 carry the democratic party TO
victory in 1892, have changed their views
materially; not, however, as to his hon
esty and craftsmanship On these points
he stands unquestioned, and his frankness
in taking the stand upon the silver ques-
ton at a time when he knew that three
fourths of the democrats in the South and
West are in favor OF free coinage. and also
at a time when he was the choice of q
large majority of his party in these sec
tons Tor the presidency Is proof that he Is
clear of all demagngry and has the cour-
age OF his convictions.
His honesty and courage 60 without
question. Never during his official or
private life was he charged with being a
policy man. In 1883 ne lost the presi-
dency on account of his views on the
tariff. He believed he was right, and that
il was for the good of the country that
there should be a tariff reform. He ad-
vocated it boldly, but the time was short
and the people were not educated upon
the question and allowed the republican
party to scare them into voting for Benja-
min Harrison.
1t may be that time will demonstrate
his correctness upon the silver question,
but at the present there are a great ma
ioritv of the democratic party who are
opposed to Mr.. Cleveland's position upon
this question.

COMMENTS OF THE INDIANA PRESS.
The Ex-President Il still n Prime Favorits
With the Democratic Papers OF the
State, Notwithstanding His Recent
Letter Free Coinage.
Evansville Courie-.l

Grover Cleveland would not evade,
much less acquiesce in, a party question
which his judgment condemned for any
personal consideration. He is about the
worst politician, measured by the stand
ard of modern politics. that this country
has produced. But measured by the
standard OF conscientious and unselfsh
statesmen, he is giant indeed.
1t is probable. too that he is wiser than
those party leaders in congress who
imagine that the democracy may enter
the next campaign with a whole catalogue
Of reform for platform. He sees what
must be plain to all thoughtful democrats,
that upon one question alone is the demo-
cratic party solid unit, and that is UPON
q tariff for revenue only. There are dem
ocrats who wou d go farther If they could,
and establish free trade outright. But
there are no democrats who believe that
the revenues OF the government shou d be
collected primarily with view to "pro-
tect" somebody. While the democratic
party is united for a revenue tariff, it is
divided on the money question. The re-
publican party lie split in two upon both
the tariff and the coinage questions.
Mr.. Cleveland has served his party am
pie notice that the greatest care should
be taken in making up the Issue in the
next presidential campaign, and he gives
as his opinion that the party should con-
fine It's declarations of principle TO those
questions upon which the party is in per-
feet agreement and leave to the republic
ans a monopoly of those issues upon
which both parties are divided.
AS he startled the country by his mes
sage of 1887, treating all other subjects but
the tariff as OF minor importance by COM
parison, so he now plainly indicates that
the next campaign should not be em-
barrassed by side issues, but the people
should have an opportunity to meet and
destroy the pernicious system of taxation
by which millions are made by the score
every year.

The republicans and some democrats
seem much excited about Cleveland
letter opposing free coinage OF silver.
We do not think there is anything wrong
in that letter, and it is our opinion the
next six months will find the people
with him. There is nothing sectional in
financial standards of value. What is
good for the east, is good for the north,
the south and the west. We admire the
bold integrity of Grover Cleveland. He
is a man of convictions and is one of a
few distinguished statesmen who have
the courage to fearlessly utter them

Some of The budding statesmen who
have rushed into print and denounced

ton will live to regret it Grover Cleve-
land is not man who goes off half
cooked, He generally weighs well his
words. OF course representatives Of the
silver-producing states are. by virtue OF
their surroundings, forced TO favor free
silver coinage, and they naturally enough
are against the ex-president. But just
why democrats Of the other states should
denounee him for expressing an honest
opinion is hard to understand.

While many democrats are severely
criticising ex-President Cleveland for his
fearless and outspoken position on the
silver question, there is no installing the
position that he now occupies and has al
ways occupied. No one has ever accused
Mr.. Cleveland of insincerity. He has
never left the people in any uncertainty
as TO the grounds occupied by him. To
such an extent has he permitted his per-
sonal feelings on questions OF public mo-
mrnt lead him into expressing sentiments
not in direct harmony with would-be
leaders that his chances for reelection
were jeopardized Whether or not Grover
Cleveland will ever again be the demo-
cratic president remsine to be seen. He
has expressed himss.f as opposed to the
free and unlimited coinage OF silver as
not being conducive to the best financial
policy OF the government While such
coinage might, and without doubt
would, give an impetus to the value
Of silver bullion no one would question
for a moment that such an impetus would
be at the expense of dearer money. The

it to another We will not say that the
eastern democrats are perfectly sound on
the silver Issue, neither Will we vouch-
safe the information that western demo-
Gratis occupy the correct position. There
must be a happy mean between the two
widely divergent extremes, and while sill
yer men are camoring for an unavailable
market for their bullion, they should not
lose sight of the fact that this is a vast
country, with innumerable capacities. and
that no class OF men have any right to
demand laws for their exclusive benefit
to the exclusion of the Inherent rights of
all others.
The Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis) 1868-1895, 1891-03-04

In this letter Mr. Cleveland shows his
honesty and proves more strongly than
ever that he has none OF the detestible
qualities of the average politician. He is
no trimmer TO the popular breeze and
speaks his sentiments boldly, no matter
whether he antagonizes friend or enemy.
Such a man always has the confidence of
the public and this letter may add rather
than detract from his strength. For our
part we are sorry be antagonizes free coin
age, but for all that we still have abiding
faith in him and would prefer him to any
other democrat in '92.

Grover Clevelsnd's letter against free
and unlimited coinage of silver, under the
existing financial controversies now going
on in congress has proved quite bomb

question yet to be determined If the ex-
presidents honest and open declaration
on this vexed question will spoil his
chances for the presidency as claimed by
some OF the unlimited coinage advocates

is one of those men who would rather
stand right in his convictions before the
people than to be president by occupying

The people of the United States elected
Mr. Cleveland president once because he
had the courage to express his views on
public questions, and they viii do so again
in spite of the silver idols. Although de-
feated in the electoral college IN 1873 the
people gave him a majority of 100000 in
the popular vote. The fact that he is
again the choice of the people for presi-
dent does not imply that he is TO remain
silent on great public questions. He has
q right to express himself, and men have
a right to differ with him. He is not the
democratic party, but a member OF it.
