President Cleveland is remarkable
person. la his recent veto message Of
the Ecignioragc bill he rescued from
iaa0cVoNs dcsaetale some startling dis
coveries that deserve 10 be set in gilt
frames anl posted where I'll can see
them. Tho FIRST OF these remarka BILE
discoveries Is as follows:
''No. l. Our recovery has. neverthc-
less. steadily progressed"
This reminds us of the boy IN the
district school when tho teacher one
day gavc him al example IL was the
old familiar story OF the frog in the
well: "IIe climbs up two feet during
the day time and slides back foot at
night" The inquiry was: "lIow many
days will IL take him 10 reach the top?"
In this case. however. tho teacher set

testing the pupils ability. lie made

day and slide back three feet daring

explanation Of the Coxcy movement and
the general unrest throughout the
country i made more clcnr
His second discovery is: Confidence
Is 10 such an extcnt rcinstatcd as 10 pro-
ducc the most encouraging results"
Our comment OF this IS that there
are strikes throughout Pennsylvania
and all the coal countries OF the United
States, there urc hungry worlfmen in
every city, populists, Coxcyitcs, and q
general class OF unemployed working
men who are talking OF marching on
Washington To cause legijlation in
their favor This sort Of confidence
and these results are not such as TO
tend to produce an abiding trust in the
future, or faith in the stability OF such
government as we now have.

~ and like tho frog, they are going
backward ThcFe are no industries IN
this country, and there are no farmers,
except, perhaps, very few, who arc
finding In these days fair equivalent
for their labor, their capital gnl their
skill
Ills fourth IS "Our recovery being

various states, and the wise every
