CleYeland,s ..Soldier,, RECORD. Re- l,IJI.

Grover Cleveland's hostility to veter-
ans dates back many years. When he
was Mayor of Buffalo he vetoed a reso-
luton of the Common Council appro-
priating $500 for the proper observance
of Memorial Day. One of the first bills
that came before him as Governor vas
one authorizing the supervisors of Chau-
tauqua County to appropriate money
for soldiers monument. promptly
vetoed it. He also vetoed bill appro-
priating $4,000 Ito be expended under
the supervision of officers of the Gettys-
burg Battlefield MemorialAssociatio in
the erection of suitable permanent mon
uments to mark the positions occupied
by New York troops in the decisive
battle of Gettysburg, and in preserving
or reopening and perpetuating the sew
eral defensive works thrown up by
them." He said the appropriation was
unconstitutional. He also vetoed bill
making it penal offense for any per.
son, not soldier, to wear Grand
Army badge. These acts foreshadowed
his pension vetces as President. Ever
since he was drafted and sent substi.
tute, he has seemed to have a grudge
against the veterans. - Indianapolis

He Had A Limit.

newspaper man, and the party were

''Have a cigarettee?" said the dude

much obliged, responded the pris-
oner, shaking his head. "I've stole
hosses, and robbed chicken roosts, and
broke into houses, and killed man OF
two and had four or five wives, and
made counterfeit money, but never
smoked cigarettes, and, heaven helpin
me, never will. So long, and the
cell door went to with a bang as pro-
nounced as the one the dude wore in
his hair.-Detroit Free Press.

The Passing of a Genius.

There is nothing-not even the pass
ing of personal friends, ones contem-
poraries-which bring to one deeper,
sadder sense of creeping years, and
loneliness OF heart, than does the pass
ing of the literary epoch with which
one is identified both by accident of
time and by affectionate discipleship.
The first realization of the morality of
those to whom one looks for intellectual
guidance, stimulus and inspiration is
one of the first b ack milestones in one 8
onward journey. l know of one girl to
whom the awful finality of death first
came, on the June night which brought
the news of the death of Charles Dick
ems. Her best consolation in any child
ish woe was the thought that Saturday
night would bring to her new chapters
ir the Dickens novel then in course of
publication. Once-O hour framed all
in gold!-she had heard him, the great
multitude before him laughing and
weeping at his will-tell the story of
the school at Dotheboy's Hall. And
now she was absorbed in the new friends
Edwin brood" was bringing her. She
will never forget that soft June twi-
light when, standing in a library and
taking down Dickens volume she al
ready knew by heart the attendant
said carelessly. $50 we won't know
whether brood was killed, after all!
S'pose you knew Dickens was dead?''-

WHY HE SUPPORTS HARRISON.
Governor of New MexicO's Good Reasons
for Supporting Harrison.

The Republican party represents all
that is glorious in our National history
for a generation in the past, and all
that is conducive to National prosper
ity in the present.
1t started in 1855 for free speech, free
press, free soil, free men, none of which
then existed under Democratic rule,
and it never faltered until they were
accomplished facts. 1t carried the Ma
ton through the great struggle against
treason and rebellion to glorious con-
clusion in victory and peace and union.
1t made the words of the Declaration
of Independence, "All men are created
equal and "All Governments derive
their just powers from the consent of
the governed" actually true for the
first time, by the Constitutional amend
ments. 1t achieved the resumption of
specie payments and the preservation
of National honor end honest money.
By combined honesty and administra-
tive ability it simultaneously paid off
the National debt and reduced the bur-
dens of taxation. In every case it was
opposed by the Democratic party,
whose only record for forty years is one
of negation, of obstruction and of de-
feat.
Under the fostering care our popula-
ton has more than doubled, our wealth
quadrupled, every great industry has
been promoted, and our people are the
most prosperous upon earth.
Today it stands for universal educa-
tion, for free ballot and fair count,
for the progress and happiness of every
portion of our people and their protec-
ton against unjust competition, power
ty and degradation.
No administration has ever been so
pure and stainless, and at the same
time so able and stalwart, compelling
respect for the flag abroad and for the
National honor at home-in short, 80
thoroughly American as this.
No President has been known SO firm
and resolute, yet SO judicious and level
headed; so wonderfully equipped for
the position by the knowledge of law, of
history and of men, as he who now
holds the office. On every great occa-
sion, every American is confident that
he will say and do exactly the right
thing, and all are proud when it is said
and done.
Then why change for a party and
candidate in all things the reverse?

A Great Popular History of the World.

A Great Popular History of the World.
The story of the worlds history, is,
after all, the most interesting and most
instructive story which has ever been
told. Itwas probably never better pre-
sented, for general reading and refer.
ence, than in Alden's Cyclopedia of
History, recently published. Every ma
ton of the earth, ancient and modern,
is treated in its alphabetical order, ex-
cepting only the United States, which
is to form a separate work. You have
ancient history as far back as BIC. 1904
and modern history down to AID. 1892.
All countries are described in their
physical aspect, as well as historically,
SO you have the equivalent of book of
travel around the world. There are
many illustrations, none for mere Or
nament, but for helpful instruction.
Considering the magnitude of the work
its small cost is astonishing. The en-
tire history comprises about 100000
words, equivalent, you will find by
comparison, to about ten volumes of
ordinary size-and yet is issued in two
handy volumes, in small but clear type,
well and handsomely made, and sold
in cloth binding for only 81 25 for the
set, plus 20 cents for postage, if by mail.
For 10 cents the publisher sends post.
paid paper bound volume of 100 pages

PENSIONS TO SOLDIERS.
Democratic Views Of them at Election
Time Compared with Other Times.

Recently there was witnessed sight
in the city of Washington which has
never been witnessed and can never be
repeated. Over 70, 900 war worn veter-
ans, many on crutches, bent down with
disease and the effects of their service
for this Government, marched up Penn
sylvania Avenue, repeating the march
which they made up that avenue after
the war in 1865. When they first began
the march war emblems were hung out
upon the buildings in Washington, and
there are many men here before me
who saw it and said that this Govern
ment and this people could never repay
its debt to the soldiers but six months
ago you could not read Democratic
paper that was not decrying the soldier
as fraud, and charging that the vast
majority or large part at least of the
pensions granted were fraudulent and
undeserved. / have heard the charge
SO often and so long that it moves me
but little; but l have this much to
say about. :
For eight years / have had the honor
of representing, first, the district, and
finally, the entire State of New York,
in the Congress of the United States,
and there came to me in my official ca
pacity letters from thousands of old
veterans in this State and scattered all
over the Union-for they were New
York boys who had gone West to make
a living-letters by the thousands ask
ing me to take up their cases and see if
they were not entitled to a pension,
and secure it for them. put my Sec
retaries and clerks at work upon these
cases during all these years. However
much there may be of fraud in the vast
amount of money now paid out for
pensions l will not undertake to say.
Let any man make the charge who
knows case. Out of a thousand or
ten thousand cases that came to me Of
ficially in Washington stand here to
say neither myself nor any of my
clerks ever found one single fraudulent
claim.-Warner Miller.

The Gospel OF st. Peter.

lation OF the recently discovered manuscripts
Of the Apocryphai Gospel of Peter. SAYS a

document Of the early half of the second
century, and the copy discovered in an
Egyptian tomb 10 judged to have been
made In che eighth century. This new ac-
count of the resurrection Is given: "There
was great voice from. heaven, and the
soldiers saw the heavens open and two men
descending thence with q great light and
approaching the tomb, and the stone which
was put at the door rolled away Of itself,
and departed on one side, and the tomb
was opened and both the young men entered
1t. When. therefore, the soldiers saw it
they awakened the centurion and the elders,
for they, too, we're hard by keeping watch,
aud an they declared what things they had
seen, again they see coming forth from
the tomb three men, and the two
supporting the one. and O cross following
them. And OF the two the heads reachs sd
unto the heavens, but the head of him that
was led overpassed the heavens, and they
heard q voice from the heavens saying, Hast
thou preached TO them that sleepP and an
answer was heard from the GROSS, Yea"

Apocalypse Of Peter. This Is a most val
liable discovery, for, as the translator in
