Lowell. Mass, March 3.-Both branches
Of the city council met last night with a
purpose, so far as the Republicans were

GRe1yER CLEVELAND.

Grover Cleveland, with the 4th Of
March, win retire 30 private life ike a
unique character. After all that may
be said, Grover Cleveland, though now
condemned by his own party and ap-
parently the least popular of all our
presidents except Johnson, will find q
place in history. He has been fearless
and independent He was assertiye,
almost domineering in his party coun-
ellis from 1884 to 1893 He was dubbed
''the stuffed prophet on account of the
positive way In which he asserted his
opinions, but he made them law. He
dealt In platitudes and was egotistical.
His state papers bore the style of an
early period-dealing with the funda-
mental principles of Democracy in a
characteristic and apparently original
way. He emerged from comparative
obseurity in 1884. The Buffalo sheriff,
If not statesman, was man of more
remarkable abilities than are usually
associated with the sheriff's office He
struck gait in public affairs that COM
manded attention. His hold on his
party was greater than any man of his
generation. He was three successive
times the nominee of his party for presi.
dent. No defeated candidate since The
days Of the elder Harrison ever reoeiv-
ed a subsequent nomination and cleo
ton to the presidency. Clay in 1874
was the last name we recall who ever
received nomination after defeat But
Cleveland enjoys the distinction of be-
Ing the only man who was defeated
while president, TO be afterward nomin-
ated and elected.
Not one prominent public question
upon which he need have been misun-
derstood. His position SIS an anti-silyer
man had been known since his public
letter TO A. J. Warner, president of the
Bimetallic League, in 1885. and the Re
view OF Reviews, May, 1892. called At
tention TO his position as follows: IF 10
crown it all, Mr.. Cleveland-whose anti
silver message was the strongest and
ablest state paper of his entire admin
istration-shouldb be the party nominee.
II Is hard TO see what excuse great
masses OF men in the several western
and southern states could ind TO sup
port either the Democrats or Republi-
cans" To accuse Cleveland of going
back on pledges made for silver is sian
der. In justice he was, and had been
for eight years. an ani-free coinage adj
vocate when nominated in 1892. and the
public well knew it. The campaign Of
1892 was fought upon the prosperity
restoring, revenue-tariff panacea; silver
was not in il. Cleveland was made the

The Lawrence Journal, touching the

school was knocked out, goes on to say
that 1T is too bad that even our schools
must be dragged in the mire of poll.
ties, subjected to the whims Of boodlers.
and be bought and sold as hogs are.
The Journal is not defending or criti-
cising the scheme to locate a school al
Wichita, but the causes which led or
will lead to its triumph or defeat. The
Journal thereupon intimates that next
TO the text book combine and the rail-
road bills there was more Doodle money
in sight over the Wichita Normal than
for any other measure. OF course the
Eagle does not believe a word of the
Doodle business as far as the Wichita
proposition is concerned. Certainly the
people of this city put up no money.
As for the men who put their money
into the building, they are offering the
institution at about One-fOurth its orig
inal cost and they could not be expected
to make any greater sacrifice. 1t was
not Doodle but Pop cussedness combin-
ed with local jealOusies and counter
schemes which beat the bill. There is
no state educational institution south
and west of Emporia, and Emporia is
within eighty-four miles Of the east line
of the state and three hundred and six
teen miles from the west line. The state
architect reported the Garfield to be the
finest building of it's character in the
state. The special committee could find
no fault with the location, the building
or the proposition. AS for the sight of
Doodle soaring that Pop aggregation,
our contemporary should reserve such
talk for the marines. 1t is not the rail-
roads nor the school schemes which are
on hand with Doodle at Topeka, in such
persuasive quantities, but the stock
yards combine and the Oleomargarine
trust, and the text book subsidy. The
people of the state and their interests
are being bought and sold through the
cheapest crowd that ever dominated
Kansas legislature.

Provo business and mining men were
in the city yesterday for the purpose
of attending the stockholders meeting
Of the Richnlond & Anaconda Mining
company, during Which an election was
held and the mana cement of the com
pany turned over to Mr. Knight and
his associates, and while the personnel
of the new directory is not entirely
completed, it is learned that Jesse
Knight will be installed as president,
J. r. Twelves will hold down the of
fees of secretary and treasurer, while
John Roundy and Charlie Reese will
be installed as directors.
AS stated in these columns a few
days ago, Mr.. Knight recently pur-
chased a control in the capital stock
Of the company, amounting to 200
shares, for which he paid the hand
some sum of $10.500 in cash, Messrs
G. H. Robinson, 7. c. Cutler and S. S.
Jones furnishing the stock upon which
the deal was based.
In speaking with Mr.. Knight relative
to this purchase he informed The Her
aid reporter that the Richmond ground
will be developed through the Uncle
Sam and HumbUg workings, and that
he has always regarded this as being
q valuable prospective piece of terri
tory, and he needed it TO round out
his holdings, composing the Humbug
and Urcle Sam mines.
He also corrob0Tated the reports of
a new strike in the IIumbug, although
its extent and value had not yet been
determined.
