A SOUTHERN VIEW.
A Democratic Slap at Union Soldiers
Commendation of Mr.. Cleveland.

SOtAiAftNAAtShNAOAA VI -AIs NlGNtldllus
AS an illustration of the kind Of news
paper articles which Southern Democratic
editors are offering to their readers rs ar
guments why Grover Cleveland should
be elected Ptesident, it is worth while to
quote the following article as it appeared
in full, on August 7, 1892, in the Globe, a
leading Democratic newspaper published
in Durham, \. c.:
''Some of the Northern papers are
bowling about the positive fact that Gro
yer Cleveland hired cheap man to rep
resent him when the North pilIaged and
plundered and burned and ravaged the
South. There could not be a better rec
ommendation. The scamps at the North
who went into the war went in for SI4 a
month, with an explicit understanding
that they should and could steal all that
was in sight. Grover Cleveland knew
that the country would need his services
in 1884 and again in 1892, and he did not
propose TO have his body filled with
Northern lead in order to give a Yankee
the chance to pick his pockets after he
had been killed. He simply did a good
business job, as he did when he slapped
the dirty beggars called pensioners III the
face. Why should he, statesman and a
man of his intellect take the chance of
war when he could hire a cheap fellow to
represent him?'

Cleveland and Pensions.
New York Press


Mr.. Cleveland's record as a vetoer of
pension bills Is no worse than the record
of his party. During the first session of
the tifty-first (Hepublican) Congress $50
special pension bills were passed, during
its second session 50l-a total ,3Sl Dur
ing the first session Of the Eiftv-second
Democraticl Congress 500 private pen
sion bills were reported tavorably by the
Pension Bureau to the House Committee
on Invalid Pensions, but only l35 were
passed.
That is to say, only about 13 per cent
of the deserving cases were favorably
acted on by the Democratic House. 1t
is needless to say that all the bills Of this
kind that did pass the House were acted
upon tavorably by the Republican SEN
ate, and were promptly signed by Presi-
dent Harrison. In the three years and a
half of his administration President Har-
risOn has signed l,576 special pension
bills and vetoed none. In the four years
of Cleveland's administration he signed
!, ,246 bills of this kind and vetoed 524.
1t was IN January, 1857, that Congress
first passed what is known as the "De-
partment Pension Bill" granting pen
sionS to every Union soldier who had
served three months, and who had SINCE
through no fault Of his own, become de-
pendent for his living on others. This
bill President Cleyeland promptly We
toed- just Twelve Gays before the same
Congress passed bill granting pension
to every man who had served in the
Mexican war, whether he had since be-
come dependent or not. This bill Presi-
dent Cleveland promptly signed.
The benefciaries OF the former bill
lived mostly in the Northern States; the
beneficiaries OF the latter lived largely in
the Southern States. 1t was bill which
would have pensloned Jefferson Davis if
he had been alive. Mr.. Cleveland's sig
nature of it proved that he was not op-
posed to pensions ON principle, but only
to pensions FOR Union veterans. This is
still the attitude of Mr.. Cleveland's party.

A BUSINESS STROKE
Under the Administration of President
Harrison.

A great stroke of business has been the
removal of European prohibitions upon
the admission of American meat pro
ducts. To this result, which has already
involved an increase OF the exports OF hog
products amounting to l0,2S6, ,SSl in the
course of a few months, the Republican
candidate for Nice-President greatly con-
tributed by his strong and lucid presenta-
ton of the case when he was Minister to
France. Vigorous as the State Depart
ment's work has been in the controver-
sizes which have arisen with Germany,
Italy, Great Britain and Chile, and reso-
lutte and infiexible az its defense Of
American rights has invariably been, its
chief glory is that of conducting the most
successful business administration known
in the annals of American diplomacy.
All the productive interests of the Nation
have been benefited by the enlargement
of foreign markets for American exports.

Clovelnnd a DIsannoIntment.

New York Evening Post, October 1s, 1881
The painful truth is that we doubt if Il
single independent voter in this State, Of
the thousands who supported President
Cleveland in 1884, any longer attaches any
importance TO the utterances OF the mem-
bers OF the Administration on the subject
of civil service reform, or any longer ro-
fuses to believe thatthe Presidents prom
ises and professions have been violated or
disregarded on great scale, with the ut
most boldness, in sundry places and IN
divers manners, and that men Ike Judge
Maynard and Surveyor Beattie have actu-
ally been detailed or told OIL TO practice
as much civil service abuse as can be
readily concealed or disguised when they
are found out and exposed.

WHITELAW REID.
Something of the Nominee for the Vice
Presidency of the United States.

Presidency OF the Unlted states.
In every society, community or coun-
try there is always some one who, by
common consent, stands at the head, or
soon rises above the others. Mr.. Reid is
one of that kind. He was like Garfield,
teacher in a school where haif the boys
were his seniors. In small Ohio town
he was editor-in-chief of a newspaper,
and the people down there still talk pleas
antly of the ''long-legged stripling'' who
used to lay down their political duties for
them. His fellow war correspondents
made him the spokesman whenever cir
cumStances demanded that their interests
should be presented at the army head
quarters. he was chief of the local staff
of q Cincinnati paper, and, later, first edi-
tOrial writer. After short service on the
New Y York Tribune he was made manag-
ing editor and became editor-in-chief and
principal proprietor on the death of Mr.
Greeley. AS Minister to France he at
once took rank among the first diplomats
of the world. and by his consummate
tact succeeded in negotiating treaties OF
inestimable value to his country, thus
binding together more closely than ever
two great nations.
But the grandest triumphs Of Mr.. Reid's s
active lie have been achieved in his edi-
torial labors. 1t is here that his high
moral purposes and versatile intellect
ro'Ne Aouhu an alhpls menu VI actlNlty.
During nearly twenty years, through the
columns of a metropolitan paper, he has
personally considered, or directed the
treatment OF, great questions of state;
the tariff, finance; all phases of political
economy and practical politics; theology,
literature; public men and their acts; Gil
that can concern Government; every
thing of importance growing out of the
busy life of a great people and reaping
both fame and fortune as the result of his
eXertions. In this profession where a

w nat lie IhlukS OF Ene flights OF Citi-
zens and the Ballot.
There is no security for the personal or
political rights of any man in a COM
munity where any other man is deprived
of his personal or political rights. The
power of the States over the question of
the qualification of electors is ample to
protect them against tho dangers OF an
ignorant or deprayed suffrage, and the
demand that every man found to be
qualified under the law shall be made
secure in the right to cast a free ballot
and to have that ballot honestly counted
cannot be abated. Our old Republican
battle cry, "a tree ballot and a fair
count" comes back TO us, not only from
Alabama, but from other States, and
from men who, differing with US widely
in opinions, have come to see that parties
and political debate are but mockery ii.
when the debate is ended, the Judgment
Of honest majorities is to be reversed by
ballot-bOX frauds and tally-sheet manipu-

those who, by reason of bad character or
habits, are not wanted at home. The in

mated from the pauper, the criminal, and

The Journal of July II, 1859, contained
list of thirty-iive Indiana banks the
proceeds OF whose securities were eN-
hausted. This meant that the unredeemed
notes of those bank still outstanding
were worthless. The same issue con-
tanned a list of tweuty-three different
kinds of 'shin-plasters" with the state
ment that the above is a lot OF shin
plasters or hat -banks,N having no legal
existence and whose notes have no so-
curity Of redemption beyond the pleasure
OF the issuers.
A list of ''uncurrent funds in tho
same issue quotes Illinois banks at / 10

1t will be seen rom the foregoing con-
temporaneous quotations that the wildcat
banking system was not confined to IN
diana alone. 1t prevailed in different
forms and degrees all over the country.
The paper currency of that period rested
on a basis as unstable as quicksand, and
q majority of all the bank issues in the
country were quoted at discount. The
losses inflicted on the people by this state
Of affairs were simply incalculable.
This is the currency system which was
taxed out OF existence to make room for
National bank notes, and ii is the system
which the Democratic party proposes TO
restore, for mark the language OF their
platform: "We recommend that the pro-
hibitory 10 per cent. tax on State bank
issues be repealed"

Popular education being the only safe
basis of popular suffrage, we recommend
to the several States most liberal ap-
preparations for the public schools. Free
common schools are the nursery of good
government, and they have always re-

cratic party, which tavors every means of
increasing intelligence. Freedom of edu-
cation, being an essential Of civil and re-
ligious liberty as we'll as a necessity for
