CLEVELAND TALKS.
statssmanlike Utterances Before Meeting
Of the Buffalo Club in New York.

OF the Buffalo Club IN New York.
NEW YORK, Oct. 26.-At rally of
the Buffalo club in this city tonight
ex-President Cleveland was the prin-
cipal speaker. He said in part after
a few remarks regarding the early
campaigns participated in by him
with other Butfalonians, now citizens
of Gotham: "You know how devoted
1 am to the principles of the Demo-
cratic party and your knowledge
of me will, am sure,
acquit me of insincerity when 7
express the opinion that the result OF
the pending political struggle means
more to our country and our people
than any in which you or have ever
been engaged. On one side the claim
is defiantly and arrogantly announced
that the functions of our government
may be used directly for the benefit of
certain special interests with as best
a very remote regard for the welfare
OF the masses of the people. In oppo-
sition to this appeal is made
to hold fast to the doctrines
that their government should at
all times be administered directly
for them and they should not be oblig-
ed to receive as their share of the
blessings of the free government they
maintain the small portion which
may filter through to them in the
process of making special beneficial
ries rich. In other words, the Demo.
cratic party is insisting Upon an hon
est application of the rule that gov
eminent by the people should
be government for the people. 1t is
as needless as it is foreign to nv
purpose to discuss in detail before
those SO thoughtful and intelligent
as my Buffalo friends the differences
between the political principles
and purposes presented to our people
Tor their approval. 1 only desire to
assure you that the qualification
which your personal attachment
aHoros is greatly enhanced
oy the consciousness that it is the at
tachment of those who are thought.

that support you give your old towns.
man can not create in your minds the
least suspicion that such support is in
aid of principles at all inconsistent

POLITICAL AMENITIES.

The papers are expressing some
surprise that Governor Hogg contri-
buted his presence outside of his reg
ular appointments to conspiracy OF
his Tyler friends to break up a meet
ing in that pace last Saturday night
addressed by George Clark.
The governor hurried across the
state gathering his friends at every
depot and on his arrival at Tyler in
the nick of time his conspirators
were ready with drums and brass
band and a stand right under the
window of the hall in which Clark
was speaking, to which with loud
noise the governor was escorted and
almost in the presence of his COMPETE
cor made speech, the drums beat,
the bands played and the boys from
the forks of the creek shouted
making night hideous with clamor
and bacchanal revel. Oh, shame,
where is thy sting? Oh, governor,
where are thy manners?
Governor Hogg was accorded re-
spectful hearing without any disturb
ing elements at Waco, Clark's home,
because George Clark understands
and practices the amenities of life and
professional and political courtesy;
but do not blame Governor Hogg for
lending his presence and influence to
break up the Clark meeting, or at
least to an effort to prevent Clark
having an audience at Tyler.
The governor is not to blame; he
would not do it again, any more than
he would repeat the language he used
once in speech. This is a campaign
of education, AND although the gov
ernor is yet in his A b C's he will
learn; he is quick and will catch ON
after awhile. Don't blame him; he
did not know any better. He will not
do so again.

AN UNHOLY ALLIANCE.

The Chicago Herald, one of the
ablest and best newspapers in this
country, has drawn the deadly paral'
lei column on Mckinley.
1t seems when he was preparing his
celebrated tariff bill he wrote to the
different manufacturers asking each
the amount of tariff the bill should as
sess in their respective kind of manu-
facture, and each wrote him just the
kind of q clause in the bill his branch
desired. Mckinley adopted even the
language of each of the representa-
tives, and the Herald produces the
manufacturers demand and the
clause of the bill pertaining to
it, and arrays it in parallel
columns, the language, the same
down to comma or the dotting of an
or crossing of a t, showing conclI-
sively that he sold the taxing power
Of the government to these manufac-
turers at exactly so much money, and
that they agreed to furnish the sinews
of war to the Republicans to buy votes
to elect men to perpetuate their OPP
pressive tax upon the country through
another presidential torn.
1t is true that the present admins
tration is in partnership with these
mcnopolistic nabobs, these Carnegie
cormorants, to fleece the people of the
country, the consideration of Republic
cans was power and patronage on the
one side of the bargain and millions
from the pockets of the
consumers to the pockets of the
manufacturers on the other side
This is in II - a.
triotic alliance. Never before has q
party in power degraded itself by
such partnership, such pervertion
of all the ends of government as the
present manipulators ofthe machinery
of party tactics.
Never before has a party attempted
to sell out the taxing power of the
government to any set of men and if
the righteous indignation of the peo-
pie does not manifest itself by a stern
and overwhelming reproot to Republic
can politicians at the polls on the sth
of November, they are not worthy of
the freedom they enjoy or the glori-
GUS rights secured and handed down
to us for our happiness and preserva-
ton by the fathers of the republic.

the day comes when the young and

her behalf. A few years ago, in the
happy time of home making, it was

ONE EVIL OF STANDING ARMIES.
Soldiers Don't Marry In France ana Popu-
lation Is Accordingly Decreasing.

The people of Europe are being
brought face to face with the cost Of
great standing armies by a startling
revelation just made by the collectors
OF vital statistics. The census shows
that IN 1880 the deaths in France ex-
ceeded the births by So, 446. When
the announcement was first made the
doctors declared that the phenomenon
was due TO the la grippe. But the San
FRANCISCO Examiner says an examina-
ton OF the table showed that the NOR
tallty had not been above the average;
Is was the decrease in births which
had caused the discrepancy. The re-
turns show that there has been a large
dimiHution in the number of marri-
ages and decrease of 1000 in the
mum ber of births as compared with
the old average.
This is the fruit of large standing
army. Soldiers cannot marry. They
would not if they could; and if they
could no general would be willing to
cucumber himself with an army corps
OF women. The marriageable males
in France are reduced by just the
number OF men who are conscripted
for military duty, and the birth rate
falls off in proportion. What is true
of France is probably true of Germany
and Italy. In those countries vital
statistics are not collected as assidu-
ously as they are in France. If they
were they would probably show that
the population of Germany is receding
even more rapidly than that of its
rival, for Germany has to endure
heavy annual loss from emigration,
while France loses few of its people
from that cause.
1t thus seems that the financial en-
barrassment brought upon those two
countries by their war policy
reveals itself in both by the labor
troubles that are constantly breaking
out in Paris and Berhn-is only one of
the evil consequences of their warlike
attitude. They are not only spending
the substance of their people and crush
ing them beneath an intolerable bur-
den of taxation-the one to keep, the
other to regain the spoils of war-but
they are stopping the fountain which
is the source of their strength and
greatness and enduring the penalty of
war without chance of winning its
rewards

Has a Craze for Timepieoes.


William w Kenyon, says the Eagle,
of Brooklyn, owns number OF time
pieces. He is a connoisseur and au-
thority ON ancient and modern watches
of the most complicated and excellent
construction. One in his possession is
a musical watch which tells the time
of day, day of the week, days OF the
month, and is a calculator OF the
moons phases, and also repeats the
hours, quarter, half and three-qu quarter
minutes, besides playing number OF
airs. He purchased it in Europe. He
is also a great adept In the clock
makers art, which is proven by the
GREAT and divers iaed variety of clocks
in his house. Colonel Burleigh,
another distinguished Brooklynite, is
the owner of several watches. one OF
which is very historic. 1t once be-
llenged to Marquis de Lafay yette and
bears his coat-of-arms. 1t was pre-

Terne-PIate.

Tin-plate. or, to speak more aecu-
rately, timed plate or timed sheets,
is thin sheets of plates of iron or steel
coated with tin. Terne-plate is sheet
or plate iron or steel covered with an
alloy of tin and lead, usually two
thirds lead and one-third tin. 1t is
this union of three metals, iron, lead
and tin, that gives rise to the name of
terne-plate, terne being the French
equivalent of the English adjective
tern, meaning threefold. The oft
repeated statement that terne is from
French word meaning dull is incor-
rect. Terne-plate, because of the
presence of lead in the coating, is
dulIer than tin-plate, which is frequent
ly called bright plate, but it is not this
fact that gave rise to the appellation
terne but the union of the three metals,
There is a question as to whether the
tin used forms an alloy with iron, or is
only simple coating. 1t seems to be
more firmly attached to the iron than
a mere coating would be, rarely if ever
when the sheet is properly prepared
sealing off but requiring absolate rub
bing away to remoyeit. 1t is probable
that the tin coating forms an alloy
