THE object of the Drainage Association
is one in which all the people along the
rivers and lake are interested. Ii it can
accomplish that object much good will
result, many thousand acres of land
now practically worthless will be made
productive and add to the wealth OF the
community; but there seems to be a
disposition in some quarters to make
political capital Of the matter and to use
the association for political purposes.
which is entirely wrong and will result
disastrously. A little advice to the
friends and promoters OF the enterprise ::
Do not allow politicians to get in and
control the association as 4 political Or
ganizatiou for the furthering of their
ambition and as means of boosting
them or their friends into office. Men
OF all three political parties are members
OF the association and interested in the
reclamation OF these lands and to &C
complish the object in view politics
must be eliminated from its discussions
and work.

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND did not veto
the tariff bill. He protested, however,
against its passage and the wonder is
that he did not interpose his veto in
spite OF the democratic majority in Con-
gress. He does not hesitate to exercise
the veto power and has made use of it
many times. This 10 the number OF We
toes by the Presidents down &c the end
OF Cleveland's first term: Washington,
2; Madison, 6; Monroe, 1; Jackson, IL;
Tyler, 10; Pierce, 5; Buchanan, :; Lin
coin, 8; johnson, 10; Grant, 8; Hayes, o.;
Arthur, 4; Cleveland, 27s. The veto
was never invoked by either Adams, by
Jefferson, Van Buren,, W. II. Harrison,
Taylor, Fillmore or Garfield, and only
few times, six or seven, by BENJAMIN
Harrison. Cleveland's great total in
his first term, which outnnmbered the
vetoes OF all the other Presidents sever
al times over, was, for the most part,
due to private pension bills. During
his present term Cleveland has EMPLOYED
the veto several times and evidently
considers himself greater than his party.
