vox, EFT Pa RETEREA NIHIL.

The inaugural address of President
Cleveland has the great merit of not being
go long .ha. it cannot te easily read. 1t is
thoroughly charact telistio document. 1t
shows that it's writer has lost mono of the
confidence he used to have in himself,
and the familiar "I' is in evidence. There
are also some rather curious arrangements
of words, such ss "rejoices in the hardi-
hood of constant labor" 'insidious in
trinity" "the unwholesome progeny of
paternslism," etc. But when the careful
reader looks for Whist he has expected to
find there he doesn't find it. The interest
in what the President might have to say
about the financial situation and the tariff
was deep and general. But what he
has said will by no means satisfy
that interest. He has talked around
both of these weighty subjects. Is 1t
possible that the country needed to be
told this concerning the financial situation:
"At the same time, in our efforts to adjust
differences of opinion we should be free
from intolerance and passion, and our
judgments shoul be unmoved by alluring
phrases and unvexed by selfish interests.
am confident that such an approach to
the subject will result in prudent and eff
fective remedial legislation. In the mean
time, so far as the xecutive branch of the
government can intervene, none of the
powers with which it is invested will
be withheld when thsir exercise is
deemed necessary to maintain our Ma
tional credit or avert financial disaster" !"
This strikes US as pretty thin and fat. You
can read better stuff than this in the daily
letters cent out from Wall street.
So with the tariff: "While there shorld
be no surrender cf principle, our task must
be undertaken wisely and without vindic.
tiveness. Our mission is not punishment,
but the rectifeation of wrongs. If, in
lifting burdens from the daily life of our
people, we reduce inordinate and unequal
advantages too long enjoyed, this is but a
necessary incident of our return to right
and Justice. If we exact from unwilling
minds -acquiescence I'm the theory of an
honest distribution Of the fund of gov
ernmental benefcencs treasured up for
all, we but insist upon a principle which
under]ies our free institutions. When we
tear aside the delusioDs and misconcep
tions which have blinded our oountrymen
to their condition under vicious tariff
laws, we but show them how far they
have been led away from the paths of oon-
tentment and prosperity" And so forth
and 30 on.
A voice end beyond that nothing
Every body was looking to see what the
President would cay about these vitality
important matters. he has said nothing,
and said it weakly.

GROVER CLEVELAND,s STAR.

~AASv hAe OA y - a IN D>S . AM
One could we'll afford to give penny
for the thoughts of Grover Cleveland as
he stood 10 front of the Capitol Saturday
to read his inaugural address and to take
for the second time the impressive oath of
Office administered to the Presidents of
the United States.
What career he has had. And how
strange and mysterious it must seem to
him as he looks back over it, for he Is
surely not egotist enough to asoribe its
wonders to his own merits and efforts.
Many of the great men of the
world have felt themselves to be
men of destiny, led, guided or
driven in ways they could not
understand. Some have gone from
glory to glory under the influence of this
idea, until, having come to implicit reliance
upon 1t, they have thought they conld not
fail. And just then they have seen their
star set to riss no more. When Napoleon
was apparently about to conquer Europe
and thus fulfil what seemed to be his
destiny, he fell by an accident which was
allowed to happen, and instead of ruling
Europe he became a mournful exile on
the Island of st. Helena.
But Grover Cleyelsnd's star il now
high in the heavens and shining glorious.
ly. He has the favor of the people. They
seem to look to him with confidence and
cheerful expectation. He is not favorite
with the politicians. He hes not been q
very good party man. 1t is difficult to
tell Just what he has been. 1t Is still more
difficult to tell what he has done that
justifes such luck as he has had and such
feeling as undoubtedly exists toward
him. His record is not one of wonderful
achievements for the good of his country.
We do not wish to detraot in any way
from that which is justly due him, but
vs. look upon his second entrance into the
highest honor that can be given by the
people of the United States as the climax
of an astonishing and inexpliosble mystery.
"One shall be taken and the other left" !"
Grover Cleveland was not the desire of his
party. He had the active opposition of
what WAS supposed to be the most power
full part of his party. Yet the way was
smoothed for him. The convention was
led, or driven, to nominate him, and the
people, who were prospering under q
policy which has proved itself to be sound,
voted for and elected him.
Clerk, teacher of the blind, assistant
compiler of the American Herd Book, law
student, practioing lawyer, assistant dis
trict attorney, sheriff, mayor, governor,
and twice president! 1t is marvellous,
and there is nothing in sight to explain it.
No wonder there is feeling that Grover
Cleveland is man of destiny. VIII he

I've known John Smith for many year
A man Of worldwide fame;
In every city directory
You'll surely end his name;
But 'monR the numerous family
OF 6mith's-here comes the joke
While everybody knows plain John,
Who ever heard Of Hokes
Now, while In various dialects
John Smith may write his name
Jean Smith In French, Yohn 6midt In Dutch,
We know him Just the same;
But now for new intelligence
The gods I would invoke,
To tell me this-just how and whore
''Clevs" found that Smith named Hoke.
A consequential lump OF fieeh
he certainly must be,
Else Grover ne'er would vest him with
Official dignity;
And so, in sooth, 'tis very strange
That hid so lsng by smoke
And fog of blank Obscurity,
They ever found this Hoke.
"By Hokeyl I" thus the farmer boy
Is oft heard to exclaim,
Which soft expression possibly
Provoked our hero's name;
Be this, however, as II may,
One thing 'twsre well to state
A Smith ''by any other name"
Would seem 70 be as great.
Upon the bright historic page
Wen therefore place forthwith
Another name, gilt-edged by fame,
The name-Great Scott !-Hoke Smith!
And while this name itself may seem
Ridiculous and dat,
II he VIII be q real good boy
wen not blame Hoke for that.

THE SO LABELLING ATHARTFORD
The members of the legislature who are
putting psrtisanship before common hon
esty and the public welfare are making q
grave blunder. The people are not very
well pleased with some of the perform
ances of the last Legislature. They will be
very much displesssd If sharp practice is
persisted in by members of this legislature
in order to deprive anybody of his rights.
It ia to be hoped that when the legis-
lature comes together again those members
who have allowed their feelings to over
come their Judgment will be oalmer and
more reasonable. They will have had
chance to rest and to remember that parti-
san advantage got st ths expense of justice

The contour of the neck depends great
deal upon the curve or line described by
the cut of the low neoked bodice. Few
women present graceful curves from all
points of view. Many women having a
baby like fullness of throat and smooth
ness of chest are ugly over the shoulders.
For such the evening bodice should set
we'll up on the shoulders, letting the arm
line extend up over the shoulder, rather
than permitting the shoulder line to be
unbroken down ON to the arm. This class
