The People Demand Cleveland.

The People Demand Cleveland.
The little Cleveland Bureau down
in Taylor's Hotel is deserving of moth
ing but contempt. 1t hurts rather
than helps good cause. But leaving
it out of consideration, there can be
no such thing as denying the enor-
nous popular demand for the re-nom-
ination of the Democratic ex-Presi-
dent. The people want him, and if
he is nominated they will elect him.
If he be not nominated, the voters
will be very apt to rebuke the poll
ticians for ignoring their will, by de-
feating the candidate whom these i'm
pose upon the country.
The people recognize in Mr.. Cleve-
land clear, specific and wise concep-
tions of National policy. They recog-
nize that he has the honesty and
resolve to stand by his ideas of right
under all circumstances. and regard
less of consequences to himself. The
people have grown tired of jugglers
and tricksters. They want a man in
whose truth they can believe.
We wonld go too far if we said that
a ticket headed by Mr.. Cleveland
would be the only one that could win.
The party unquestionably has other
leaders in whom the people have con-
fidence, and many winning combina-
tions might be devised. But we in
sisJ that none can be thought of so
strong as that which Mr.. Cleveland
would appear in, and we further in
sist that any which has the appear
ance or suspicion of being machine
made, has not the ghost of chance.
This is going to be either peoples
fight in which case we will win, for we
have the people with us, or machine
fight in which the Republicans will
win for they have a better, stronger,
more tcast iron, and vastly better
fabricated machine than we have.
AS for David B. Hill, we believe his
name means foreordained defeat.
Hill is not as black as he is painted.
He is man of great ability, and he is
not without principle by any means.
His fault, if it is fault. is that he
thinks any and every resort justified
to accomplish what lie considers right.
His motto is, THE end justifles the
means" On that point, we believe,
the people are not with him, and will
not have him. We regard him as
hopelessly out of the Presidential

whom he hit with lamp. is in serious
condition from loss of blood.
The first mate of the ship English Am
bassador, which IS lying at Constable

nineteen year old apprentice, had been

we'll built, FIVE feet seven inches in

fifty pounds. and was dressed In a dark
blue uniform, with brass buttons, cap OF
the same color, with red cross in front.
The Rev. Z, A. Mott, who resigned his
pastorate of the First Baptist Church q
few days ago, will very likely withdraw
the resignation. A pretty villa, left to the
church by the will of Mary A. Serrell. is
now occupied by the pastor, and will serve
as the pastorate residence in the future.
The villa is situated on Avenue b. near
Thirty-second street.

charged with being drunk aud disorderiy
yesterday. She abused the policeman
who made the arrest, and started to do up
Judge Besher when arraigned. He SEN
fenced her to thirty days.

Now the iceman comes to the front
with his regular annual story about
the failure of his crop. The standard
ice crop must have been harvested
some time about the year 1900, for
every one within the memory of man
has been failure. The situa-
tion this year in this city has
its humorous phase in the at
titude of the rate cutter who will not
cut. His ice, he says, is, good-appar-
emily the only good ice in the world
this year-and he will not cut prices
because, if he did, his wicked rivals
would sell cheap too. This is certainly
a marvel of logic in its way.
But if ice is really scarce and bad,
what is the matter with starting q
factory for artificial ice in this town.
Have we not the cash or the enter
prise? Or do we prefer to be imposed
on, here?

The Coal Combination.

The New York papers are in general
more remarkable for ignorance, stu
pidity and narrow-nindedness than
anything else. In proportion as they
are sensational and spreadeagle, they
are usually crude and foolish. The
Herald yesterday devoted a page of
drvel under screamer head to de-
nunciation of the Reading combina-
tion, and accentuated it's utter misun-
derstanding of the whole subject with
half column editorial.
From the latter production, we
select a sentence or two, which for
amusing assumption we have never
seen beaten;-
1t appears, therefore, that on moderate
estimate the roads combined are 10 be mads
10 pay something ke twice as much a.
they PAID Separately. Now it needs no argu
nlent 10 show that under the most favorable
conditions this could not be done without grave
Injury to the publir--that is to say, without in
jury 10 every consumer OF coal within very
widely extended area.
OF course, the object of the COM
bine is to make the roads more profit
able. But where is the logical neces-
sity for any injury to the public2 The
combination enables the companies to
dispense with a small army of en-
ployes and to get nearly double the
results out of it's motive power. The
saving extends from the Office of Vice
President down to car cleaners, and
touches every mile of the roads. That
is where the profit comes in--in the
enormous saving. Why should not
the company save that money? How
does the public suffer?
But In its, maudlin way. the Herald
regards the reduction of the working
force as crime. What nonsense! Here
is an argument which would block
every modern Improvement. When
the Herald substituted perfecting
presses fer the old drum cylinders,
how many feeders did it drop, we
wonder? This is the law of prog
ress. individuals may have to suffer
for time, but the world must move
on.
The Reading combination is just
such a movement as created the great
New York Central and the great
Pennsylvania systems which give pub
lie service such as weak small roads
could never attain. As for the lack of
competition in coal, we take no stock
whatever in the idea The moment
Reading gives it chance, Pennsy
will furnish all the competition that
the trade can stand.
