WORDS OF WISDOM FROM GROVER
CLEVELAND.


That matchless Democrat and
true American statesman, Ex-
President Grover Cleveland, utter.
cred some truths in his speech be-
ore the Business Mems Democrat.
ic Club of New York City, last
Friday night that ought to be tax.
en- home to every true Democrat
in the South at this time of party
strife and threatend dissentions.
Said he
"We have given pledges to the people,
and they have trusted us. Unless we
have outgrown the Democratic spirit of
Jackson's time, our dnty is PLAN. Our
promise was not only to labor in the peo-
pies cause until we should tire of the ef-
fort or should discover a way which
seemed easier and quicker party ascen-
dancy.
The service we undertook was not to
advise those whiting for better days that
their cause was hopeless, nJr under any
prefext to suggest IA cessation of effort.
Our engagement was to labor necessarily,
bravely and stnbbornly, seeing nothing
and considering nothing bnt ultimate
success. These pledges and promises
should be faithfully aud honestly kept.
PARTY FAITnLEssyEss is PARTY DrsuONOR.
Nor is the sacredness of our pledges
and the party disbonor that would follow
their violation all we have to consider.
We cannot trade with our obligations to
The people without exposure and disas-
ter. We ourselves have aroused Il spirit
of jealous inquiry and discrimination
touching political conduct, which cannot
be blinded and tho people will visit
with quick revenge the party which be-
trays them.
We lave preached the doctrine tibet
honesty aud sincerity should be, exacted
from political parties. Let us not fall
under the condemnation which waits on
shitty schemes and insincere professions.
l believe our country men are prepared
to act on principle, aud are in no mood
for
POLITICAL MANEUvEMNG.
They will not waste time in studying
guessing riddles, or trying
interpret doubtful phrases. They de-
mand a plain and simple statement of POI
purpose.
Above all things, political fincsse should
nor lead us to forget that at the end of
our plans, we must meet face to face At
the polls, the voters of the land, with bal
lots in their hands, demanding as u con-
Ilition of their support of our party, fdeli-
ty and undivided devotion to the cause
which We have enlisted them.
II, inspired by the J~acksonian spirit, we
lold to the doctrine that PATTY HONESTY
s rARTY DUTY, aud PARTY COURAGE is
'AETY ExPEDIECCY, we shall win a sure
md lasting success through the deserved
upport of a discriminating, intelligent
md thoughtful people.

He was born March II, 1882, near

there one year. He was admitted to the
bar in 1853 at Corydon. Ind, and became
Q successful lawyer; was elected to the
legislature in 1860. and in August, 1851
became lieutenant colonel Of the Thirty

ceptionally brilliant record, especially
In the campaigns of 1858 In Mississippi.

Aug. IL, 1893, he was commissioned
brigadier general, and while command
ing the Fourth division of General
Blairs corps before Atlanta he received
. wound which disabled him for q year,
ending his service. March ID, 1865, he
was brevetted major general for gal
lantry in the Atlanta campaign. He re-
sumed law practice. this time at New
Albany, Ind, and became Republican
leader, but the Democratic majority in
that region was too much for him and
he was defeated in the race for congress.
Again, in 1881, he was an unsuccessful
candidate for United States senator.
Meanwhile President Grant had in 1883
appointed him federal judge for the dis
trict Of Indiana.
In April, 1882, he was appointed post
master general in President Arthur'a
cabinet, and in July, 1884, on the death
Of Secretary Folger, be was transferred
to the secretaryship Of the treasury.
Finally he was in October, 1884. ap.
pointed United States judge for the
Seventh judicial circuit, which Office he
still holds. In the preliminary contest
before the Republican national conven-
ton Of 1888 southern Indiana and most
of Illinois supported Judge Gresham fol-
the nomination for president, but Gen
eral Harrison secured the state delega-
ton. Judge Gresham has always been
quite independent in politics, but moi
very successful.
