Lieutenant Governor Sheehan went to
that memorable meeting at the Victoria
hotel saying, 4 am going to read the
riot act to him tonight, and he did
He made a speech that would have scared
little man out Of his boots. Cleveland
heard him, calmly questioned him so as
to comprehend all the terrors Of his
proposition, knowing full well the power
and influence Of Tammany Hall, and was
not scared. Cleveland does not scare
He said, Il will appeal from the machine
to the people" That would have demol-
ished Tammany Hail. Lieutenant Gov
ernor Sheehan said:
am talking for the hundreds and
thousands Of Democrats in this state
who are the spine and vitals Of the
party. They want to know the treat
ment they are to receive from the Demo
cratic administration. They suspect
they are not well liked by you, that their
friendship for Senator Hill may have
biased your mind against them and they
desire assurances that in the event Of
victory they will receive the rewards
which they fight to win.
That presented the case coldly,
tersely. II brought together skillfully
the whole pack Of Hill terrors and remi-
niscences. Cleveland knew what that
speech meant by what had been done in
1888 He did not quail He turned and
calmly read the riot act to the men who
came to read it to him.
Governor Sheehan and Mr.. Murphy
withdrew ten minutes afterwards They
could not do otherwise than accept the
situation. They did that, and Cleveland
will enter upon his duties having made
fever pledges than any president for
half a century.
That is the reason he is the president,
because he is man Of courage and Of
principle.

Il has been said that Cleveland lost
many votes because Of the bargain or
deal by which he was said to have sold

OF course that report was unjust to
Mr.. Cleveland. Nobody who knows him
nobody who respects his character; and
scarcely any one, perhaps, Of ordinary
intelligence, could believe the man who

VICTORIA is not great woman or a
magnificent queen. but She Is sensible
woman and wise queen. She knows
en- ough to take calm views and she is
brave enough to adhere TO them. With
a splendid tact springing from an un-
usually calm and judicial mind, or gained
from long experience through many mu-
tations in men and policies, she knows
how to preserve Lord Salisbury in
her highest regard without giving
oifense 60 Mr. Gladstone. The most
jealous politicians, under her hospitality,
receive most eqnable treatment. There
are no favorites and outwardly, at least,
she never betrays any feeling or senti-
ment to show that they all do not stand on
precisely the same footing at the Court
of st. James Indeed she does more
she curbs the extremists Mr. Gladstone,

still who gets it? There is no question

THE estimate Of Secretary Of the In.
terror Noble is that $l66, s3i, $50 win be
necessaryto pay pensions on account of
the army and navy, including the main
tenance Of pension agents, clerk hire and
other incidental expenses. OF this
amount it is estimated that Sl65, GOO 600
will be paid directly to pensioners. In
addition to the estimate Of SAG. 737. $50
fog the fiseal year ending Juue 80. 1892. a
deficiency Of $40. sos. CPL is asked. Dur
