The Free Traders have a hard time
of it, blowing hot and cold in the
same breath. A little while ago they
shouted the tariff is a tax" and
claimed that the Mckinley bill puts
a tax on everything, from the poor
mans dinner pail" to his coffin,
which the consumer had to pay. But
the exigency is great, and with the
same ink that writes the above state
ment the hard-worked chaps have
also to insist that the tariff stimu-
lates over-production and thus makes
prices so cheap as to ruin the manu-
facturers. The poor fellows have a
hard time of it attacking the uuassail-
able and defending the indefensible.

From all that we can gather from
the papers Col. Fuller has the lead OF
all other aspirants for the office OF
Governor, though perhaps if the op-
position can unite he may be beaten.
The efforts of the Rutland Herald
and two or three other papers to be-
little Fuller have not injured but
rather helped him. He is not Dan
lei Webster nor Benjamin Frank
lin and does not claim to be, but he
is man of sound business sense and
of wide experience and, if elected, will
make a good Governor, and so will
Fletcher, Spear or Chaplin. Fuller is
too well and favorably known in the
state to be injured By abuse or ridi-
cule.

CLEVELAND AS A GENTLEMAN.

During the heated and ill-humored
campaign of 1884, when partisan senti-
ment ran so high as to be too often alb
solutely scurrilous, it was the fashion to
attack Hon. Grover Cleveland as being
everything that was coarse, boorish and
wanting in that gentleness of manner
that betokens man of high breeding
and pure sentiment. In 1888 this line
OF attack was less followed, for the
mighty Ajax Of Democracy had made too
honest and upright magistrate to per-
NIT such tactics to be used. But the
title of the gentleman president" once
bestowed upon Mr.. Arthur, has never
been taken from him by common con-
sent. Yet if the reader will take the
pains to contemplate Mr.. Cleveland
from non-political standpoint, he will
see that all his letters betoken the man
of refinement and high breeding.
A good example of this has recently
shown itself in case where some asso.
citation sought to organize with Mrs.
Cleveland's name as the title of the club.
The ex-president very properly thought
this an unwarrantable liberty taken
with the name of lady in pri.
vate life and addressed a letter to
the Frances Cleveland Influence club
which was model of kindly dignity,
good taste and discretion. And in
basing the objection "upon the senti.
ment that the name, now sacred in the
home circle as wife and mother, may
well be spared in the organization and
operation of clubs created to exert po.
litical influence" he struck a keynote
that should be observed by both sides
hereafter.
But even if that had not occurred, his
letter to Mrs. Sheridan, on the occasion
of the great cavalry leaders, death in
1888, would have been enough toshoW
him the warm-hearted man of high
breeding and generous impulse. Con
trast it with the letter of Benjamin Har.
rison, three years later, to the widow OF
General Sherman. The latter had the
cold and metallic ring of a business
mans epistle on the "Yours received
and contents noted" order. The letter
of Mr.. Cleveland, on the other hand
was discarding of all magisterial form.
ality. 1t was the spontaneous condol
ence of big and brave man to suffer
ing and stricken woman. The writer read
it for the first time on foreign shore
while in the diplomatic service of the
United States; and perhaps it was with
feeling Of self-exile uppermost at heart
that he felt additionally proud of having
voted for its manly author.
Our candidate is gentleman, and
this is to be a gentleman's fight. The
ex-president's letter from which the
above quotation has been made, sounda
the keynote for something above the
vulgar TRADES of personal abuse that
have characterized former presidential
campaigns. Let both sides initiate bis
well-maintained dignity.

A SURF PROPOSITION.

We have reached the stage in which
people of diverse views express their
personal political preferences rather
with enthusiasm than judgment. Natur-
ally the Democrat, with ebullient energy,
thinks that he is going to win this year,
as always. AS matter OF fact, the
Democratic party has won once on the
national arena in thirty-two years.
There is no queation whatsoever OF the
fact that this grand old party ought to
have won every year, and on every issue.
But the proposition of winning on the
merits, and losing on the grand "show
down" of hands, is something that the
Democratic party is familiar with. They
have been there before.
AS matter of fact, the imperial state
of New York will decide the issue this
year, as she has done it 60 often before.
This year Tammany will decide, the
issues, as that potent organization has
done it SO often before!
Will Tammany be faithful this year ?
Every Democrat hopes and believes that
she will. The national Democracy be-
lieves that Tammany will stay by the
works. Mr.. Richard Croker and the
special friends of David Bennett Hill say
that New York must be carried for
Cleveland.
In our opinion there is no doubt what
soever that these gentlemen are sincere.
As the political horoscope has been cast,
the electoral votes of New York will de-
termine the matter.
Is Tammany loyal? Just there is the
point.
We are inclined to think she is. Mr..
Richard Croker, the leader OF Tammany
hall, says that Mr.. Cleveland must be
returned by an enormous majority. That
will absolutely settle the matter. The
three last presidential elections of the
United States have been determined in
the three lower wards OF New York city.
If Tammany is loyal to the Democratic
ticket-and we think there is no doubt
OF that proposition-Cleveland and Ste
venson have got the call, and by large
maiority

The Republicans who made the Re-
publican platform of the current year

lowing reminiscence of the platform oi

sorder and control it's own domestic
institutions according to its own judg-
ment exclusively" was affirmed, and
then was announced ''the lawless inva-
sion by armed force of the soil of any
state or territory, no matter under what
pretext, as among the gravest of crimes" +"
Thit was less than seven months after
the execution of John Brown, and di-
rectly referred to his raid. The recent
reopening of the African slave trade
under the cover of our national fag''
was branded "as a crime against hu.
manity and burning shame to our
country and age.'

perfection of detail to the illustrations. A
quarter Of million copies Of this matchless
publication viii be issued. 1t will be printed

win do the most good. 1t will be devoted to
Southern California, every portion of which
will be treated impartially. In few days ac-
credited agents of the HERALD will start out
on the work oil canvassiDg the people in the
interest Of this mammoth enterprise.
Those who can contribute advertising
patronage are expected 10 do so, while
almost anybody can subscribe for copies
to be either mailed east by themselves, or dis
tributed at the worlds fair through the HER
AIDS agency. There is no reason why the
greatest boom ever known in the history of
Southern California should not follow in the
wake of the Columbian worlds iair 1t is the
mission of the BERALD TO see that this shall b
the case. The high standard OF previous edi-
tions of the HERALD is a guarantee that this
supreme effort will be of exceptional merit.
The aim will be to make it nonpareil. 1t will
be noted that in this ambitious edition all the
counties In Southern California are to be in
cluded. We bespeak for this enterprise the
generous patronage which will undoubtedly be
accorded to it, and which in reality will only
be bread cast upon the waters, which will re-
turn before the lapse ofmany days. This the
