claim Mr.. Dana had upon him for the
courtesy of an answer. Beecher had a
candidate for the same position, and
Cleveland gave it to Beecher's man
without any explanation whatever to
Dana, who felt that he had been dis
courteously treated by Cleveland.
A Social Afront.
"Mr. Dana gave no open sign of his
disappointment, but some time after
Cleveland's Inauguration when it be-
came known that Dana felt grieved at
the governor, some mutual friends inter-
vened and proposed to Cleveland that
he should invite Dana to join with some
acquaintance to dine at the executive
mansion. To this Cleveland readily
assented. Dana was informed that
Cleveland would tender such an invita-
ton if it would be accepted, and he
promptly assented. Cleveland then be-
came involved in the pressing duties of
the legislature and allowed the session
to close without extending the promised
and expected invitation to Dana. Mr..
Cleveland told me hat he was entirely
to blame for neglect in both instances,
as Dana would doubtless have been
satisfied if he had courteously informed
him of his convictions which required
him to appoint another for adjutant
general and he had no excuse to offer
but that of neglect for not inviting
Dana to dinner.
Proclaims Cleveland's Election.
"Dana naturally assumed that Cleve-
land had given him deliberate a%ffront,
and Cleveland could make no satisfac.
tory explanation. AS governor and as
president he was first of all devoted to
his official duties, which he discharged
with rare fidelity, and he gave little
time even to the common courtesies
which most governors and presidents
would recognize as justly belonging to
their friends. Efforts rwere made to
conciliate Dana, but he never would
discuss the question. When Cleveland's
election was announced, and the repub.
licans were disposed to dispute the vote
of New York, Dana came out boldly and
declared that Cleveland was elected and
that no violent measure should be toler'
ated to deprive him of the honor con
ferred upon him."

THE CLEvELAND-DANA FEUD.

III IL hllttuClpLlu odVuAuoy HNOhAh6
Post, Colonel A. K. Mcclure gives an
interesting bit of history concerning the
origin of the feud between Grover
Cleveland and Charles A. Dana, which
was very bitter, especially on the part of
the latter, throughout both administra-
lions of President Cleveland. Mr.. Nc
Clure says:
''Charles A. Dana, then editor of the
New York Sun, became estranged from
Mr.. Cleveland the year before the presi-
Dental election of 1884. He had earnest
ly supported Cleveland for governor in
1882, but when a movement was made
by Mr.. Manning, to organize the state
for Cleveland in 1884 Dana was i'm
placable in his opposition. I met him
several times before Cleveland wa
nominated and he always discussed the
question with an unusual degree of
acrimony.
Beginning of the Quarrel.
"Soon after Cleveland's nomination 1
was spending a few days at Saratoga
and was watching Dana's paper with
much interest. for he was very much
disgruntled. He did not at first declare
himself aggressively against Cleveland's
election, but one morning at Saratoga
in taking up the Sun I found one of
Dana's terrible d~eliverances against
Cleveland that left no possible chance
for a reconciliation. I telegraphed to
Mr.. Dana and asked him to meet me at
his office at 3 o'clock that afternoon and
called there on my way home. MIR.
Dana had gone too far to recede, but I
tried to temper his bitterness, as I thought
it would do great harm, not only to
Cleveland, but to his own newspaper as
well, then one of the most prosperous in
the country.
"Mr. Dana was petulant and violent
in his expressions against Cleveland and
said that he had decided to support
General Butler.
"Charles A. Dana was the ablest
editor ever developed by American
journalism. Horace Greeley was more
pungent and telling in his political
articles and Henry Watterson is more
brilliant, but Charles A. Dana was the
strongest editorial writer this country
has ever produced.
A Political Recommendation Sighted.
"It was not until I met Cleveland al
Albany, soon after his election, that ]
learned the cause of the estrangement
between Cleveland and Dana, and the
statement given by Mr. Cleveland was
subsequently confirmed by Mr.. Dana
Dana had very earnestly supported
Cleveland's nomination and election fol

lations would be impolitic. We have
own cities where army camps are
located to know that American soldiers
are the chief patrons of the places where
distilled liquors are sold. The natives
do not want them and the better classes
do not %patronize them. For the honor
of the natives, the credit of the govern
ment and the discipline of the army, it
is imperative that the saloons of Manila
should be closed"
The CONSERVATIVE fears that it's pious
fellow laborer is not altogether well
posted. Perhaps
in his zeal for the
things of Heaven, he has omitted to get
all the news in regard to earthly affairs.
He should be informed, therefore, that
General Otis is busily occupied in civil
izing and Outstanding the uncultured
Manila people and should not be inter-
rupted. 1t is to be regretted that this
method of floating in enlightenment
and Christianity IN a current of mixed
drinks fails to please u friend, just as
it is a matter of equal regret that the
introduction of "the blessings of Ameri-
al liberty" by the medium of martial
law and armed occupation has failed to
please many others of our fellow citi-
zens, but we must accept a good many

pose the Americans than to oppose
Aguinaldo, because the Americans

Of more than 10 per cent of the people

their sentiments toward him are un-

him; and treaty to that effect was

The report of the warden and trus-

undertaken or completed at any insti-
tuition in the state. The most import
ant is the completion and installation
OF the twine plant, with complete ma
chinery and fittings for the making of
10000 pounds of binding twine a day.
The first years operations came at an
especially bad season. Crops through
the state were largely failure and
the demand for tWine was very light
Several large orders which were filed
early in the season were cancelled
when it was seen there would be little
or no harvest. For this reason the
penitentiary plant has stored away a
large amount of manufactured pro-
duct for sale the coming year. The
tWine plant has been closed for a
couple of months and will remain so
until Dec. 4. . An appropriation will
be asked for the continuance of the
manufacture of twine, as it is believed
another year the plant will make some
heavy sales.
In addition to the twine plant, War
den Boucher will be able to report lne

complete electric plant. Another and
