WAS 1T "BRUTAL?"

WAS 1T sBRUTAL?''
| Dyspepsia is a very common Amer
lean disorder. 1t not only disturbs
the whole body but it affects injuri-
ously the mind, and makes its unfor-
tunate victim sour and morose and
disposed to be contentious and prag-
NAUTICAL, while he becomes abusive to-
wards people who do not see through
his bilious eyes That must be what
is the matter with our morning con-
temporary. 1t has always been given
to vilification of Grover Cleveland and
Ilatterly has become particularly vic
ious in its attacks upon him. A day
or two ago it denounced his message
to Congress again, and said:
when he called Congress together,
the message which he delivered to it,
when carefully read, is found to be the
most brutal state paper that was ever
transmitted to Congress from the
White House.
When Carefully read" The Herald
found it to contain some arguments
that appeared fallacious, but discov-
cred nothing brutal in it or deserv-
ing of anything but fair criticism.
However, different papers form diff
ferent opinions of the same thing very
often, so we thought we would look
up. the expressions regarding the mes
sage made by public journals of the
several political parties. Here are a
few of them, and however painful it
may be to say it, they do not agree
with the one paper of the west which
arrogates to itself exclusive know
ledge and the concentration of wisdom
on the silver question:

papers:
The President deserves high honor
for this message, so free from every
suggestion of trimming and compro-
mise at time when the air is full of
bartering schemes, and so earnest and
strong in its appeal to the good sense

of vicious action on the money ques-
tion.-New York Tribune.
The message of President Cleveland
can be cordially commended. 1t is di
rect, straightforward, moderate, and
judicious The President addresses
himself to Congress with earnest ap-
peal. but in temperate and convincing
terms. His reasoning is lucid. and
his measured words, while less aggres-
sive than some expected, are calcula-
ted to persuade and not to offend The
scope and spirit of the message are
admirably framed and pitched, and its
tone is uneXceptionable.- Philadel-
phia Press.
The message of President Cleveland
is, take it oil in all, the best state pa

The message of President Cleveland
to Congress is the strongest of all
his public documents.-St. Paul
Pioneer Press
President Cleveland has addressed
Congress in an excellent message
Syracuse Standard.
The tone of the document will,
without doubt, be fruitful of good.
1t will suffice to convince a, great
proportion of the people that there is
no wish or desire on the part of either
of the great parties to do anything in
legislation which will tend to further
depreciate the value of the white
metal.-St. Paul Dispatch.
Taken as a whole, the Presidents
message will prove a greater setback
to the advocates of the single-gold
standard than to the upf1olders of

1t is pleasure to be able to COM
mend, without qualification or re-
serve, President Cleveland's message
to Congress. 1t is clear, forcible and
earnest; it is free from any sugges-
ton of partisanship; and alike in it's
argument and its appeal it is directed
at the intelligence and the conscience
of ongress.-Boston Journal.
The message is in every way adj
mirable. Cincinnati Commercial.

There is no trace of craftsmanship or
of that much more subtle temptation
for men in high place-the pride of
opinion. There is nothing in it that can
offend any section, any class, or even
any faction. The legislation which is
SO far the cause of our troubles that it's
removal is essential to recovery is not
denounced in any angry spirit, and no
reflection is made upon the motives of
those who brought it about There is
no harsh criticism of conflicting theo-

moving appeal to the sense. the patri-
