How refreshing it is by contrast to
turn from Benjamin Harrison, the can
didate Of a convention packed by fed
eral officeholders and purchased negro
delegates, to Grover Cleveland, the free
choice of democracy. How small and
mean Benjamin Harrison looks with his
nomination won for him by such meth
DDS, compared with his opponent. Four
years ago, when a democratic foreign
minister wanted to come home to aid in
Mr.. Cleveland's denomination, Secre-
tary Bayard replied to his request as
follows:
can say that I do not believe the presi-
dent would look with favor upon you- do
ing SO while holding Office under his ad-
ministration. 1t has been and still is his
purpose to give to the people OF the United
States an absolutely honest and just ad-
ministratlon, and to leave them free at the
end Of his term to express themselves for or
against the record so made without official
interference or instruction.
No wonder thousands Of square- deal
ing, honest republicans prefer such a
man as Grover Cleveland to Mr.. Harri-

Supt. Cleary has a word TO say about
the crematories. He believes they are of
great benefit 20 the city and could not very
well be done away With, reviewing from a
sanitary standpoint The work Of the Gre
