THEY LOVE CLEVELAND
Because He Didn't Fight For tn
Union and the Constitution.

Because He DIDN'T Fight For the
Union and the Constitution.
New York Advertiser Qpd.
While Mr.. Cleveland has his free
and flowing pen in hand he should
drop line to his enthusiastic young
riend, Mr.. AL. Fairbrother, the
able editor of the Globe, of Durham,
North Carolina, and arrange to
have the fiery young southerner
proceed with more cautious tread.
Mr.. Fairbrother is doing noble
work for Mr.. Cleveland in the
south, but his illusions do not read
so well when printed away from
home. The red Durham editorial
bull has now taken up the matter
of Mr.. Cleveland's substitute, and
is determined that he shall not suf-
fer on that account. We quote
from the Globe as follows
"Some of the northern papers are
bowling about the positive fact that
Grover Cleveland hired cheap
man to represent him when the
north pillaged and plundered and
burned and ravished the south.
There could not be a better recon-
mendation. The scamps at the
north who were in the war, went in
for S14 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 lead in order to give a Yankee
the chance to pick his pocket after
he had been killed. He simply did
a good business job, as he did when
he slapped the dirty beggars, called
pensioners, in the face. Why should
he-a statesman and a man of his
intellect-take the chance Of war
when he could hire cheap fellow
to represent him? There is no rea-
son. The Globe regards that one of
the best things Cleveland ever did.
If Cleveland had fought he would
have been lowered in the estimation
of the South. He did not propose
to use his skill in killing the boys
of the southland. The solid South
owes debt of gratitude to Grover
Cleveland.
Just so. The solid South owes a
debt of gratitude to Grover Cleve-
land for declining to kill the boys
of the Southland;" but how about
the North ? Those "dirty beggars,
called pensioners, " and their friends
do not agree with this believing
Durham that hiring a substitute
was cone of the best things Cleve-
land ever did," The brilliant Mr..
Fairbrother should profit by the ex-
ample set him by his friend Cleve-
land during the war and Ego slow. :"

Mr.. Blaine in the Field,

The appearance of Mr.. Blaine's
letter is most significant political
event. Its strength is twofold. Its
statements and arguments will take
fast hold of the minds of the coun-
try, and it will furnish indisputable
proof that Republicans are thor
oughly united for the national cam
paign. Mr.. Platt's interview shows
that the New York leaders are in
line to insure victory in that State.
Mr.. Blaine's proclamation-for
such it really is-has wider range,
since few Americans, if any, have
ever had more numerous personal
following,
Like everything which he writes,
the paper is clear and strong.
Every voter who can read or to
whom it is read can understand it.
In this respect, both the letter of
President Harrison and that of Mr..
Blaine are models and marvels.
Mr.. Blaine's explanation Of recip-
rocity will aid many speakers in
presenting it to voters. 1t is not
confused or wrapped around with
the theories of free trade which
Democratic workers hold up to their
mystified and uncomprehendlng
audiences. His statement of re-
suits is equally clear. 1t has in
creased our national business to a
point never before reached in our
history.
1t will be interesting to see the
Democratic speakers wrestle with
the point he establishes that theiz
modern party has deserted Jeffer-
son and repudiated his tariff posi-
tions. In short, it will be interest
ing to observe the process by which
they will attempt to meet this for
mldable arraignment. 1t is docu-
ment which will do yeoman service
throughout the campaign.

over the Democratic candidate de-
nounced the measure, and recently
he has spoken against it; but what
guaranty can the Sun give that he
would veto a new Force bill if a
sudden popular demand for it
should revolutionize Congress? If
Mr.. Cleveland should be elected by
carrying the Western and North
western States, New England and
New York, though losing several
Southern states. is there anything
more likely than that he would IA
vor Force bill? In such a case
he would look on it as fitting
punishment for a recreat Southern
state.

Ours has always been a young

the grander scale that heralds the
twentieth century, a new genera
ton is mastering under the Joseph

THERE are uualms in Democrat

THERE are qualms in Democratic
breasts that the Presidents procla-
nation to keep out the cholera is
"agin the Constitooshun. The
same party felt the same qualms
about the protective tariff in 1888,
as they do now; about the prohibi-
ton of slavery in the Territories;
about the power of the national
Government to take arms to pre-
serve the Union; about the emanci-
patton proclamation; about the
greenback issues to carry on the war;
about the National Banking act;
about the Resumption act, about
the reconstruction legislation-in
fact, about every act of any
branch of the Government that has
marked step forward in our ma
tional progress or our national glory.
The Democratic party is whang-
doodle party.

THE Democratic New York
World published an instructive ar

Among the facts stated was this:
"There are but four American
factories. The largest are in
Bennington and Waterbury, Conn. !;
the Others are in Philadelphia and
BROOKLYN. In the manufacture Of
the articles in the United States
300 tons of wire is consumed annu-
ally. But the business is badly
Frustrated by reduction of Is
per cent. under the Mckinley tariff
bill and is no longer profitable
Evidently this went through the
news editors hands, bnt escaped
the free trade EDITORS hands. If
reduction of Is per cent. has badly
FRUSTRATED this business, what will
happen if the Democrats get
chance TO reduce the whole tariff
schedule to free trade and revenue
tariff basis?

Cleveland and the Force Bill.

From the Rochester Posi- Express. (Dem)
MIR. Cleveland was not renomi-
mated for his opposition to the
Force bill; and during the fight
against that measure he maintained
strict silence in regard to it, be-
ing fearful that it might over shad-
ow the Tariff Reform issue on
which he was working for a renom-
ination. Early in 1891 Senator
VOORHEES,, of Indiana, said on this
subject: 1.-The fight in the United
States Senate to defeat the Force
bill was one of nervous anxiety.

tors, who, as Generals in the Con-

Southern section. Amid it all, not

Cleveland" After the fight was

SECOND EMBARRASSMENT,

Miss Blanche Smith, assisted by Misses
Lulu Dewey and Opal Street, gave her sec
ond entertainment at FL Dorado, of which
the Walnut Valley Times says:
eff Miss Smith, Miss Dewey and that
precious little Opal Street continue to visit
Ell Dorado the people to hear them will
continue to increase in numbers. The
audience was in very pleasant humor
with itself last night, and was therefore in
the highest degree prepared for the most
delightful and artistic Evolutionary recital
the city has seen. The Boat Race was
really exciting in its perfect description
and acting. Little Opal Streets Burglar
was most comical, aud won that delight
full little body any amount of applause,
while people didn't know whether to
laugh or cry at her Happy Little Cripple.

A SPLENDID COMPANY.

'The IriShmau's Love" company showed
again last night at the Crawford Grand
ank kept the audience in roars Of laugh
ture during the entire entertainment with
the exception of the periods when the
tears flowed from the eyes of the sympa-
thetic for in truth, the piece carries one
from a smile to a tear continually. The
audience was reasonably large but not so
large as the character of the acting mer-
tied. Those who have attended the
theater pretty frequently during the sea-
son say that in their opinion, it is the
best play that has been presented here this
year with few possible exceptions There
is not "stick" in the cast but on the
contrary they are all entitled to n rank
with the best actors that usually come to
Wichita. The acting seems so natural
that at Caldwell Cowboy pulled his six
shooter on the Spider and in the presence
of the entire audience swore terrible
oath that if he touched Eileen O'Donnel
again he would throw a stream of lead into
him as big as his arm, while at Arkansas
City man fired bottle at him from the
gallery Jimmy Donovan sings some
fine comic and sympathetic songs, and
hardly night passes but what he has to

Lee as Dennis O'Day is great character
and looks and acts as natural as life.

in fact it would be hard to find a man in
any company who can beat him in the inn
