They Rely on Cleveland.


The solid, honest money men o.
Massachusetts, who sign the address
to the people which we print today,
strike the balance between the two
parties on the silver question
Ozone they say: "The Republican
party palters with the question, and
seeks to win votes from both sides,
while the chairman Gifts national com
mittee advocates the free coinage Of
silver"
OF the other they say; "Mr Cleve-
lands position is clear and strong, and
upon him we can rely"
Ofthe Republican silver act, which
Mr.. Harrison intimates in his letter OF
acceptance must be maintained, they
say This legislation has brought
the country to the verge of free coin

men Of Massachusetts is not upon

THE TRUE FAITH ExPOUNDED BY
GROVER CLEVELAND.

Never has a great party. intent upon the pro-
motion OF light and justice, had better incentive
for effort than is now presented tous. Turning
our yes to the plain people of the land, we see
them burdened as consumers with tariff sys-
tenn that unjustly and relontlessly demands from
them, in the purchase OF the neces5aries and
comforts Of life an amount scarcely met by the
wages of hard and steady toll while the exac-
ITEMS thus wrung from them build up and In
crease tho fortunes OF those for whose benefit
the injustice is perpetuated,
We see the farmer listening to delusive story
that fills his mind with advantage, while his
pocket is robbed by the stealthy hand of high
protection Our workingmen are still told the
tale oft repeated in spite Of its demonstrated
falsity, that The existing protective tariff is a
boon to them, and that under its benefcent OPP
Grafton theiI wages must increase-.while as
they listen scenes are enacted in the very abid-
ing place of high protection, that mock the
hopes Of toll and attest the tender mercy the
workingman receives from those made selfish
and sordid by unjust governmental favors.
We oppose earnestly and stubbornly the the
DRY upon which our opponents seek to justify
and uphold tariff laws.-speech accepting Dem.

Of the decision in tue Michigan case .
II have received dispatches from the
Supreme Court chamber at Washing
ton that the case from Michigan in
the Supreme Court OF the United
States, which was argued last week
and which involved the validity of the
Michigan law providing for the cleo
ton of Presidential electors by Con-
gressional districts, and which. Presi.
dent Harrison has attacked as uncon.
stitutional in his message, was sus.
tainel by the unanimous court. This

Judge Gresham's Reply.

Judge Gresham has been viciously
attacked by Republican organs because
of his avowed purpose to vote for Mr..
Cleveland. In their assaults upon
him they have resorted to all the old
familiar methods of Intolerance and
bigotry, ascribing his change of polit-
ical utilization to every unworthy mo.
tive that the minds of knaves and
liars could suggest. Most of this was
expected by the Judge, no doubt, for
he has seen manifestations OF this
spirit in case Of others before now, but
he must haze been littlo surprised at
the narrowness Of some Of the defend
ers Of monopoly, for in an interview
with representative Of the Boston
Herald the other day he said, "As an
American citizen I consider 1t my du.
ty to vote according to my convictions
/ owe no slavish obedience to any
party."-Chicago Herald.
