In appointing Wade Hampton to be
Commissioner Of Railroads President
Cleveland restores to a position of honor
one who was most unfairly stricken down
while making q brave and honorable fight
for Democratic principles few years ago
in South Carolina. Senator Hampton
lost his reelection TO the United
States Senate because he would not in-
dorse the sub Treasury scheme and other
pet projects OF the Farmers Alliance. HIS
defeat was q disappointment then to the
country, but it prepared the way for the
brave battle in other southern States
when ended in the overthrow of undemo-
cratic ideas. Wade Hampton deserves
honor from the Democratic party, and he
is one of those whom President Cleveland
naturally would select for preferment. He
