requiring great judgment, courage and prudence.
Other nations were thereby shown that the great

ought not to forget.
aO4. C. H.--The best thing President Cieve-
land has done since his Inauguration Is his
recommending. urging and approving the repeal
Of the Silver Purchase law This stopped the
spending Ct the peoples money for silver bars
no good This taught every man that he might
expect an honest dollar for what was due him
and must pay an honest dollar for what he owed
a great moral lesson especially needed In the
West and South. This saved the nations honor
and gives promise Of better times. Well and
faithfully done, Grover Cleveland
THOMAS W. o'CoNNELL. l7s Eighth avenue,
city-I think calling Congress In extraordinary
means oil passing the bill repeating the silver
purchase clause OF the Sherman bill much sooner
than IL we waited till the regular session. Tn.
time taken to debate and pass tho Repeal bill
would have to be done in regular session II
no extra session had been called. Consequently
the Repeal bill alone would barely be q law at
the present time and repeal OF Federal Election
laws would not be possible for some time.
Neither would the Tariff bill be so far advanced
as It now is
E. 8. g.. Brookiyn.-I consider the most yalua-
BILE although not the most conspicu cuous act OF
MIR. Cleveland was his refusal OF Treasury aid to
Wall street during the smashing OF ''IndustriaIs'
last year. The Treasury and speculative interests
had long been too closely allied. and It was both
timely and ooYseoua to begin severing the I'm
proper alliance. Legitimate business may be
iness has no claim to consideration from any
source-certain!y not from the United States
Treasury. This act has been obscured by business
depression and anxieties. but Il will be appre-
ciated In due time.
u Il. FA1RCHILD bringing TO bear the inHu-
cree OF his Administration to secure an incom,
tax constitutes Grover Cleveland's greatest act
lhree-fourths OF the money obtained by taxation
is expended for the purpose of protecting prop
erty occupied by tenants who pay the taxes
Miliionaires like the Astors. as landlords, nay
less taxes than q padrone's slave. though our
municipal, State and Federal Governments pro-
tect their property so securely that they save
| annually millions by non-insurance. Taxes
though wrongfully collected. may be compara-
make serfs OF Us In this world. We would be

Cleveland's best act that no reduced the in
terest-bearing bonded debt over $33s, ,Ot2, $780, It
was reduced under Harrison only S25s, OIL SEQ, a
difference Of nearly $50. 900. 900 In Cleveland's
favor When Cleveland came into power there
were outstanding Slo4 100. 800 OF per cent bonds
payable At tho option OF the Government. They
were called in and paid without premium. Har-
rison's Administration had neglected to pay them.
Harrison paid to the bondholders over ST. 900 900
in premiums. thus taxing US poor people to pay

City.-n Grover Cleveland. when denied connrma-
tion OF Mr.. Peckham for the Supreme Court, had.
In defiance OF the cabal arrayed against him In the
Senate, nominated another citizen Of New York not
seeking once for revenue he would have been gen.
orally applauded for conscientious discharge Of
duty. But Grover Cleveland. upon q higher plane
moved by u nobler impulse ignores oil personal
considerations even waving the claims OF his own
State He names for the vacancy Senator White
to from political mire the ermins Of .
sacred tribunai-the sheet anchor OF our great Re
public.
JANE NJ. BOSWORTH.-In reviewing, through
| non partisan spectacles the salient points Of
cleveland's Administration. I hnd one act that
stands out in bold relief-his refusal to afnliate
with ''bossism'' In whatever form It has been
presented. The question naturally arises. Has It
already benefited the Republicf Yes. and In this
way: II Is the beginning Of q work OF reform
and publication. and will, II continued, result In
the destruction OF the spoil system. The golden
age Of politics will have come when men. IRE
spectve OF party. will be chosen for once for esps
eial fitness for the position.
fHEBE.-President Clevelsnds best and most
beneficial act to our Republic was the appointing
Of Walter 9. Gresham Secretary OF State. He
did not consider party. but. with the good Of the
country at heart. when he found q man who from
his past life, he Judged would all this position to
the honor and benent Of the Republic he repre-
sents Immediately he appointed him. only consd-
ering him as the right man In the right place.
