1t is to be hoped, however, that the
lesson learned in the late passing of
"hard-times, will adhere, and
thus prove, that so far as
dives and dens of iniquity are
concerned, cities may be saved with
out them, and let us hope that the
people of Fairhayen, upon the full
opening Of its now dawning era of re-
newed prosperity, will take upon
itself, with its renewal Of the spirit Of
enterprise, never relaxing frown
upon those characteristics OF trade
that are, morally speaking, no credit
to any city, but which are the recruit
ing Offices and feeders of the Internal.

The argument often made in favor

such elements could not be needed to
keep up the business of city, and
when such n state Of affairs
EXISTS, the business men of a city, if
they desire TO preserve and increase
their trade, should be willing to pool
large sums for the promotion Of bust
ness in dozens of better ways that
always present themselves, rather than
admit for moment that the city'>
commerce depends, in the slightest
degree, upon the successful operation
of gambling houses, homes Of harlots

Sometimes il would seem that a
temporary depression in business in a
city is a blessing in disguise, for the
reason that it drives out such places
and the characters who mostly
patr0nize, them and Fairhaven is
today, as doubtless many other
towns and cities ia the state are,
ian illustration in point. The
temporary quiet in business here,
and especially the stringency in
money, has driven from Fairhaven
numerous dens Of iniquity, or closed
them up. Their loss has seemed TO be
again. So far from increasing the
dizziness their closing has improved
matters financially as we'll as morally,
and the trade and general business Of
the city has begun TO increase without
their return, though unhappily the full
return of commercial activity will
doubtless ring them all back again,
for it is fact that any man-no mat
ter what business he has been engaged
in-who leaves Fairhaven, quickly
sends back word that he was mistaken
in going away, because he has found
that Fairhaven is at present about the
liyeliest place of its size on the Pacific
coast, the depression in business being
universal.

Congressman Patterson on the Silver
Question.

Congressman Josiah Patterson is in

the Post be said, Monday:
at would'be objectionable stupid
ity for the Democrats to fritter away
their splendid prospects by dividing
on the free coinage question or any
other. Free coinage will doubtless
come after while out one thing at a
time. We should go to the country
next year presenting a solid front,
not with dissessions in our ranks
over the currency. l believe in fight
ing battle to win, and if we are unit
ed victory is sure.
"Take the Democratic party as a
whole and it is unit on four great
propositions, to.wit; The need of a
reform in the tariff; the right of local
self-rule as differentiated from the
odious ideas of the force bill; condem
nation Of the revolutionary methods
of ex-Speaker Reed, and economy
and honesty in the administration Of
the government. Now, these propo
sitiOns that will command the sup
port of every member of the party
from Maine to Texas and from Flori
Ola to California are enough for the
battle cry of 1892. Let us cling tC

Mr.. Cleveland.

Nashville Banner.
1t is pleasing to note that many of
those Democrats who prematurely
jumped at the conclusion that Mr..
Grover Cleveland's letter on the sill
yer question had made his nomina>
ton in 1892 inadvisabls and impos.
sible, have, after taking a soberer
view of the situation, discovered that
as a leader of Democracy he has
steadily maintained his hold upon
the confidence of his party, and is to-
day undoubtedly the most popular
Democrat living.
1t will be remembered that soon
after Mr.. Cleveland, with a wisdom
which time has verified, fearlessly
expressed himself in opposition to
the craze of free silver coinage, there
were not lacking many prominent
Democratic politicians who were
ready to say that the ex>President
had foolishly thrown away his OPP
portunity, and that his nomination
in 1892 would be not only inexpe-
dient, but hazardous in the extreme.
Here in Tennessee there were no less
conspicuous parsonage than our
honored United States Senators, who
made the mistake of supposing thai
the Democratic masses would, regret
fully it might be, but none the less
positively, turn away from Mr.
Cleveland, and remember him nc
more as an available candidate in the
next presidential election.
But Mr.. Cleveland, having a righ'
conception of Democratic principles
and a courage to uphold those prin'
ciples even at the hazard of his per
sonal political interests, looked far
ther into the future than those WHIT
were so busily measuring the publ,
sentiment of the moment. He saw
that, whatever the effect of the silve
craze might be, and whatever tn,
temporary results of the disturbing
Alliance movement in politics, tn
Democratic party, whose existence |
a paramount necessity, must even
tually return to its Fundamental
, principles and settle itself upon tn
basic idea of sound money as tn
only substantial foundation for finan
. cial prosperity. He saw that in tn
3 critical period when Democracy ha
its best hope of gaining in the con
/, test over the tariff and correl lativ
J economic questions, 1t would be sui
D cidal for the party to take up sid
issue upon which it. is itself divide
and make that a leading issue in

: We are pleased therefore, to not
: that the wisdom of Mr.. Cleveland
course has been demonstrated an
. that such men as Senator Vest an
y Senator Harris, who some month
i. ago had expressed contrary opinion
e have been convinced that the e1

of cotton is the business barometer
of the South. When that great staple
is moving freely at a satisfactory
price, trade is lively in all other lines,
but when there is a sluggish move
ment of cotton, superinduced by low
prices, every branch of trade in the
