living on the McGregor plantation, few
miles south Of CourtIand, was robbed yes

DID GROVER CUS?|
He Made No Pledges to the Tam
many Leaders.
HE TOLD THEM SO BEFORE.
Some Pretty Plain Talk Which the
President Elect Is Said TO Have
Used to One Of the Tam
manyite Leaders

NEW YORK, Nov. i8.-The Brooklyn
Eagle, in an editorial strongly denies
published statements here that, at the
dinner at the Victoria hotel, Mr. Cleye-
land met the Tammany leaders and
made promises and stipulations in re
turn for their support at lis election.
The editorial said the trnih as e
what the practitioners % Mr.. Cleve-
lands courage and freedom learned is
this:
They learned that Mr.. Cleveland
would make no promises, or anything OF
the sort, to any of them, or to any 9th,
ers through them That he had not
sought the nomination, which, on the
contrary, had sought him: he consid-
cred the success Of the ticket in the state
a matter of much more Importance to
them than to him.
He Repelled the Idea
that his democracy was questionable by
them or doubtable by any one; that they
knew he was aware who had been his
friends before his nomination, and he
would know who had and who had not
been his friends after his election. That
he would have no friends to reward on
account of friendship, and no former op
ponents to punish on account OF former
opposition. That he would 60 to cleo
ton or to defeat equally free and abso-
lutely uncommitted by that.
If the Democratic People
and ticket were beaten in this state by
the Democratic machine, another Dem
ocratic organization was ready to take
its place at once, and that in such case
the youngest man present would not have
years enough TO see that machine stuff
GENTLY strong to win or betray a cause
thereafter, or one of their number ever
sitting in state OF national convention
again.
At Dinner Given by The
Manhattan Single Tax club Mr.. Thos.
G. Sherman of Brooklyn, said that at
the now historical dinner there were
present Messrs. Cleveland, Whitney,
Dickinson, Edward Murphy Jr., and
Richard Croker, and Lieutenant Gov
ernor Sheehan.
''N1r Cleveland has not told me any
thing about the pledges he made" said
Mr.. Sherman 'But there happens to
be telephone in the room where that
dinner was held which has conveyed to
me what happened"
Mr.. Sherman Then Pictured
Lieutenant Governor Sheehan as stand
ing up and addressing Mr. Cleveland on
the subject Of pledges Mr. Cleveland
replied to Mr.. Sheehan:
''Mr. Sheehan, have listened with the
utmost attention to what You have said; |
have followed you very carefully, and |
understand You perfectly, and what
I have to say in reply
Mr.. Sheehan, is that / will be damned
before I'll pledge myself to any man on
any subject whatever, and I'll be doubly
damed before | give to you particular
pledges for which you have asked at this
particular time"

Senator Quay is quoted in an in
terview as expressing the opinion
that President Harrison will be re-
nominated by the Republicans in
1896 and return the compliment to
President-elect Cleveland by sweep
ing the country as thoroughly as the
latter did this month. The Ameri-
can people he thinks will get their
fill Of free trade in that time and
will fly to the protective tariff for a
renewal of industrial prosperity.
Huntsville gazette., 1892-11-19

Speaking of the result of the cleo
tion the San Francisco, Cal, Eleva-
tor says: ''If President Harrison is
to vacate the chair, it must be ac-
knowledged that he has left record
clean-a pure and energetic admin-
istration-which will make an ever
lasting bright spot in this republics
political history. He will be remem
bered for the position in 1896, at
which time the national populace
will have its fill of Democratic rule.''

TO the general assembly now in session.
70 the Members Of the General Assembly
of Alabama:
Your attention is respectfully called to
the frauds which / am reliably informed
,1-era nerDetrared in the respective counties
named below at the election held in Ala
hama Oh the first Monday in August, 1892.
| charge that upon fair investigation
of the election frauds perpetrated in the

Coosa. Dallas, Fillmore, Greene, Hale,
T.owndes. Macon, Madison, Marengo.
Mobile. Monroe, Montgomery, Morgan,
pike Shelby, St Clair Sumter, Talla-
dega, Walker and Wilcox it will-be shown
by convincing proof that real majority
of between forty-fiye and fifty thousand
votes for the state ticket headed by my
self for governor was changed into ticti-
tious majority Of about ten thousand for
the ticket headed by Thomas G. Jones for
governor.
These frauds upon the will of the people
were not only achieved at the polls on
election day but, in many Instances, were
perpetrated by county returning boards OF
superyisors on the Saturday following
NV information in regard to these frauds
is of the utmost authentic character and
induces me to assure you that an lnvesti-
CATION by your bo will establish the
correctness of what | allege above. The
responsibility devolyes upon you to say
whether the viii of the people shall be
made supreme ana republican form OF
government maintained in Alabama, or
whether organized lawlessness and fraud
shall overthrow the rights of the people.
