POLISH UP THE HANDLE OF THE
BIG FRONT DOOR.

In view of the approaching encamp-
whose performance should be urged
constantly upon all our citizens as
something within the reach Of each
one of them. Not all can contribute
Of the committee; not all can serve on
the various bodies charged with MAX
ing the week a delightful and enter
tanning one; not all have houses that
ment Of our guests, but all can do
something toward giving the entire
city a beautiful and festal appear
ano to the eye. st. Paul Is both by
nature and by the improvement of
man one of the most charming cities
Of this country. It's natural beauties
have been heightened in many respects
by the addition to them of highways
and the construction Of splendid resi-
dences, but this is one of the occa-
sions when we will do well not to con-
centrate our attention entirely upon
Summit avenue. Pride Of the city
though that splendid thoroughfare is,
during this week when thousands
of veterans and tens of thous-
ands Of their friends are assembled
here, every street and every section
Of the city will be patrolled by visitors,
who will carry away with them an i'm
preston that is the sum of all the I'M
pressions left by what they have seen.
1t is important that every part
of st. Paul be swept and garnished
and put in it's best array.
1t is within the power of every prop
erty owner and every occupant Of
premises within the city to contribute
something to this. A sidewalk
repaired, a gate put straight which
has been hanging awry, a lawn
clipped smoothly, boulevards bright
ened up and weeds cut from vacant
lots and burned can make vast diff
ference in the appearance of st. Paul.
So, too, the gathering up and hauling
away Of bits Of refuse scattered here
and there, and the furnishing up Of
back yards and alleys will assist
in impressing our visitors with the
fact that there is no cleaner; more or
derby and more beautiful city in
America than st. Paul. 1t is
an easy matter to do this, if
all will turn in and give their little
share with intelligence and hearty
good will. 1t will make all the differ
ence in the world in the impression
carried away by our visitors, and it
will cost practically nothing except a
little time and labor on the part of a
great many people. Let us put St.
Paul into the best possible trim, not
only on her great thoroughfares and
the streets adorned by residences
of the wealthy, but every highway
and every plat of ground within
the city limits. This is a splendid
time to polish UP the handle of
the big front door, And we all
know how exceeding great was the
reward of the man who attended care
fully to that.

GROWERS ATTITUDE.
No One Can Speak for Him, But His
Position Plain.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Aug. %
While it is not specifically claimed at
the national headquarters of the gold
standard Democrats that President
Cleveland will openly declare himself
in favor Of the nomination Of a third
ticket, there is nevertheless a firm be-
lief that administration will not op-
pose the movement. The following
statement was authorized TODAY at nat
iOnal headquarters:
There Is no one authorized to speak for
PRESIDENT Cleveland but certainly there has
not been antagonism of the movement from
Mr. Cleveland or his friends and any one OBJ
serving the situation can see very clearly that
Senator Villas, Senator Caffery, Senator Pal
mer and Senator Gray are. to put 1t mildly,
not unfriendly to Cleveland. In fact these
gentlemen have been most closely identified
with him and are his friends. The Chicago
PLATFORM, as everyone knows, seeks to imDeach
MS personal integrity and his political adj
mlnlstration. and Gov Stone of Missouri in
his Madison Square garden speech saw fit to
go OUTSIDE the record and declare Cleveland
to be traitor. The newspapers that are sup
porting Bryan are engaged in the same kind
OF work. Mr.. Cleveland and his friends ara
not OF the make up that kiss the hand that
smites them.
The leaders say there will be from
5000 to 5000 people at the convention
and accommodations are being made
upon that magnitude. New York en-
gagged quarters for 125 persons today
at the Bates. Seventeen states have
now engaged headquarters at the diff
ferent hotels. A communication was re.
ceived at headquarters from New York
today, regarding Senator Hills atti
tude, which expresses the sentiment
OF the leaders. 1t is as follows:
Cochran Is candidate for the senate ana
hin knows that no man who indorses the
Chicago platform can be elected to the sem
ate from New York nor can any man who in
n hat
elected president. Cochran has taken tha
popular road. Hill has come to the forks Of

address. Perhaps one of the greatest
advantages of having a system of in
ternational law is the example that 1t
affords us of that control of human
conduct which must eventually super
sede all others as men become more
capable of governing themselves.
The international law is the fair type
of what the national law will be when
it rises to a nobler estate than it is at
present. That sanction which consists
in the fear of outraged public opinion
is immensely superior to manacles and
prison cells. That sense of obligation
which is founded upon the restraints
of honor is infinitely more binding
than that which is represented by po-
liceman or a deputy marshal 1t can
not be doubted that every state that
is really advancing, instead of retro
grading, must be on the way toward
time in which it's laws shall be
obeyed with comparatively little re-
gard to the tribunal that is to enforce
them, or the punishment to be inflicted
If they are violated. and because they
clearly represent the will of the ma
jority and the aggregate moral sense
of the community. to disregard which
would be a debasement Of the indi-
vidual that he would not consent to
at any price.
This is the destined form Of govern
nent for the future This is the ideal
republic. 1t demands men of self-con-
troll; men with whom the sense of duty
takes precedence of all other obliga-
tons; men whose political and ethical
ideals are of the highest; men who,
having ascertained the great common
law, which is composed of common
custom and common desire, are COM
petent to be law unto themselves
Toward this form of government,
which has never yet been realized, ex-
cept within contracted areas and

associates. He concede to his late as
sociates the right to formulate what
ever policy at Chicago they thought
for the best interest Of the country. He
said: IF they believe that the free
and unlimited coinage Of silver is in
the interest Of this country, they have
right to declare it in their platform
and make that their policy, and we
have no right to complain. We have a
right, though, to say that that is not
the Democratic faith We are here to
name delegates to convention at Chi
cago to name a state ticket. We ex-
pect that convention at Chicago to
name delegates to the national conven-
ton to be held at Indianapolis Sept.
2, and we expect to nominate candi-
dates for president and vice president
of the United States.
Tt Is our purpose, not to make war,
but to assert our individuality. Our
position is that the claims Of our coun-
try are paramount to any political
party"
The Democratic party, he said, had
been supposed to be an honest party,
pledged to maintain existing obliga-
lions, public and private There was
imposed on himself and his associates
double duties and obligations, the
maintenance of the public faith and of
existing contracts. The policy of the
conventions held at Chicago and st.
