Of course Grover Cleveland
did not issue such a proclama
tion. In fact no Democratic
President ever did, and in all
probability none ever will. Men
who have been elevated to such
an exalted position are not
unmitigated liars. Cleveland's
political views were bad, but no
one ever accused him Of being a
willful falsiier He could not
have said as President Mckinley
has done, "Seldom has this
nation had greater cause for pro-
found thanksgiving 1t would
not have been true. Nor could
he have SAID in such a proclama-
ton "liberal employment waits
upon labor for there was
Coxey sarmy, numberingseveral
thousand men, who would have
arisen as one man and called him
a malicious, unmitigated prevar-
icator. He might have alluded to
the abundance of crops and kept
within the record, for it is not
denied that his administration
was blessed with as luxuriant
corn, wheat, oats, potatoes, etc,
as ever grew in America But
the late Democratic President
could not have retained his self
respect and said in any OF his
Thanksgiving proclamatiols as
Mckinley has said, Increased
omforts have come othe home
There we're too many hungry
wives, too many barefooted
children, too many ragged sons
and too many sunken-eyed
daughters to rise up and dispute
the assertion. Nor could the only
Democratic President which the
nation has had during the last
forty years have said in such q
document, National finances
have been strengthened and
public credit has been sustained
, and made firmer.' Had Mr..
Bryan been elected, his Thanks
giving proclamation would doubt
less not have contained such an
assertion, but instead there
! would have been great yawning
chasm of despair, gloom. misery,
want, wretchedness and woe
visible between the lines. These
may not be pleasant comparisons
for the Leader Democrat, but
! they are nevertheless true. -

AN OLD-rIME SPORTS LAMENT.

There amt no wild west any more, the

The good OF times nf long ago have had
to skip the deck;
The "march O progress" as it's called,
has come trampin' in
An flung the plous banners from the
citadels O. sin.
The Gospels knocked the gambler out,
likewise the ready gun,
The Bible and the Prayer Book have put
the clamps on fun,
The organ of the Christian Church has
swiped the winnin' cards
An drowned the fiddle notes to which
we used to swing our pRrds.
The hostile red men are no more, their
yells no longer tear
The tringes from the feathery wings of
the asst niShed air,
The snaky eyes no longer CLEAN with
eagerneSs to twlne
Their fingers in our hair as in the days
of OF lang sine.
Around the reservations now they loaf
an take their ease.
Their bronze legs hid in paleface pants
quite baggy at the knees;
They while the happy hours away In
frequently lazy maps,
An keep their cash in motion playin'
polka or shootin' craps.
The tenderfoot now strolls about no
logger fearing that
Lead protests hot from smOkin' guns
may ventilate his hat
For usin' water on the side to make his
whisky set,
In violation of the rules of border ETH
quette.
It's come to SIGH a painful pass that men
in tailor clothes
Are held in jes' as high esteem an full
respect as those
That wear wool shirts an canvass buds,
with pistols On the side
| swear it nearly breaks my heart!
knocks out my honest pride!
The courts o. law have downed the rope,
Judge Lynch has taken legs
An left the field to starchy chumps with
heads like ostrich eggs,
An if Teller pulls his gun an downs
another gent
IL costs pile o. cash to square the triV-
ial event.
An jes' to think funeral is now put
up to be
A sad an serious affairs, while in the
old days we
Would chuck his lateness underground
without a sigh or sob,
An leave him there to rest in peace
while holdin' down his job.
1t makes me sore to gaze upon the ruin
of land
That once in maxim life joy could play
winnin' hand,
To see pale tenderteet come in with
cranky Eastern views
OF mIxin' fancy bitters with the purity
OF booze.

La addition to this the Atlanta minis

pastors of all the city churches to preach
especially on the subject of prohibition
for the next sixty days, for the purpose
OF paving the way to prohibition elec>
ton, either locally or state, as the re-
suits of the agitation may indicate.
The prohibition sentiment is not
strongly defined in the legislature

session, though the agitation which the
Atlanta ministers plan to carry on from
now until the opening of the next session
may lead to very lively scene there.
