GROVER THE PROPHET
Old Grover DiscOurses Learnedly ON
the Ills of the Democratic Party
and the Remedies for
the Same.

The dislike which ex-President Cleve-
land very plainly evinces in the Satur-
day Evening Post (Philadelphia) for the
principles which have denominated the
Democratic party in it's last two cam
paigns, can hardly be treated as news.
Mr.. Cleveland's views have been pretty
supposed that the present party leaders
have as hearty dislike for Mr.. Cleva-
land as he has for their platform, and
that they are not likely to take his pre-
scription willingly. The New York
Tribune (Rep) thinks, however, that
there is no man better entitled than
Mr.. Cleveland thus to speak, since he
has long been one of the chief conserva-
tive forces in the party and has twice
led it to victory in national campaigns
the only man who has done so in this
generation 1t adds: 1T is true that
for the last half dozen years he has cut
no figure as practical party leader.
but has, on the contrary, been repudiat-
ed and condemned by those who have
directed the fortunes of the party. But
in those same years, ever since its re-
udiation of him. the party has suffered
ar unbroken series of disastrous defeats
and is today in more demoralized con-
civil war. In such circumstances, II 1t
has q remnant of common sense left, 1t
will carefully consider Mr.. Clevelands g
words
After discussing in detail the defeats
OF the Democratic party since 1864, Mr..
Cleveland says that the success of the
party in 1892 was so overwhelming that
long continuance Of its supremacy was
to be expected. Then came the capture
of the party by the forces of free silver
and Populism. Mr.. Cleveland goes on:
''The elimination of Democratic wos
was reached when its compact with
these undemocratic forces was complete
and when our rank and file were sum-
mOned to do battle under banners
which bore strange symbols and were
held aloft in unfamiliar hands. The re-
suit of such betrayal was foredoomed.
The abandonment of the principles of
true Democracy, this contemptuous dis
obedience of it's traditions and this de-
liberate violation Of the law of it's
strength and vigor we're, by a decree as
inexorable as the DEGREES of fate. fol-
lowed by the inevitable punishment of
stunning, staggering defeat"
Despite this defeat, however, In 1900
the lesson of 1896 was contemptuously
rejected, ana every hope of Democratic
success was wilfully cast aside Again
our long-suffering rank and file, whose
loyalty and obedience deserved better

only in name; and again it was demon
strated, but more clearly than ever be-
fore, that the only forces that can win
Democratic success are adhesion to re-
cognized Democratic principles and re-
lance upon Democratic councils and
leadership" Continuing in the same
vein, he writes:
Sincere Democrats of every condi-
tion and in every part of the land real
ize that the situation of the party needs
repair. Reorganization is not neces-
sary, but a return from our wandering
is absolutely essential. Let us be
frank with ourselves, and candidly ac-
knowledge the futility of attempting to
gain Democratic victories except in the
Democratic cause and through Demo
cratic methods. RecriminatiOn is worse

sells. We are dealing with the condition

external foes; and since it's ruin can be
wrought only from within, it should be
imperishable. Above all things, there
should be a manly remuneration and
avoidance of undue sectional control.
Democracy will not operate efficiently
on sectional lines.
There is much for us to do, and the
future is full of Democratic duty and
opportunity. Our fighting forces will
respond listlessly and falteringly if sum-
moned to a third defeat in a strange
cause; but If they hear the rallying call
Of true Democracy, they will gather for
battles with old-time Democratic en-
thusiasm and courage

party leaders, and in spite Of their op-
position, by the voice of the people; and
the people elected him, as they would
have elected Democrat in 1900 if the
leaders Of the party had given them an
opportunity"
The Detroit News Qnd) on the other
hand, remarks:
"Ex-President Cleveland was never
noted for modesty; but the climax of his
superb and unshakable egotism is
reached in his summons to Democracy

dom from the sage of Princeton. What
ever sorrow he may feel over the pres

ditions he deplores. Except in the sim
gle matter of the tariff, Mr.. Cleveland
is and has been for years out of SYM
pathy with almost every principle and
policy of true Democracy. Ever since,
during his first term in the presidency
he made his peace with those powerful
elements which have no politics except
to make use of whatever party is in
power, he has been essentially a Re-
publican, and modern Republican at
that.
IF the rank and file gets another
chance, it will certainly not follow Bry-
an; but. just as certainly it will not
swing back to that other extreme Of
which Mr.. Cleveland is the embodiment

five Mea FaM Among Prince of
 Wales Natives.
BLAME ". '. LoPP
The Missionary School Teacher at Thaf Place Is Censured by Wrecked Men Because of the Alleged In- difference to Their Needs.

A story Of the wreck of 2 steam launch, the narrow escapedrom drown ing of five mon and the plunder of their goods, which were washed ashore, by the natives of Cape Prince of Wales, was brought to town today by the sur vivors of the wreck and robbery. These men are Frank Bowman, Harry O'Deli, Chas. Ferguson, Wallace Porter and Billy Trigg.
 They left Nome on Oct. 4, in three ton steam launch with a whale boat aud dery in tow. In the latter were their provisions, the party being bound for Candle creek.
 They reached Cape Prince of Wales on Oct. : without mishap, but when off that place a violent storm arose and blew the launch and its tow on the outside bar: this was passed, however, but the inside bar brought the party to grief.
 The whale boat and the dory were overturned, and the launch stuck on the inside bar, breakers 15 feet high dashing over it. The shore was 400 yards distant, and the men knew they had to swim for it or perish, They chose to swim, and fortunately all reached shore in safety, but badly bruised.
 They found refuge ina native isloo, to which they walked in their stocking feet, having taken off their boots before swimming ashore. One of the party went to the mission, five miles distant. and informed the missionary, w. T. Lopp, of their predicament In the meantime their goods had drifted ashore and the natives proceeded to steal everything in sight. Mr. Lopp told them that the native in whose igloo they were, was honest and their belong ings would be safe. Later. Bowman al- leges, he told him that that particular native was the biggest thief on the coast. The natives seized everything except five sacks of flour. The stranded men tried to recover some of their clothes which were hung up to dry, but every time they attempted to do so, they were met by natives with long knives who threatened to kill them.
 Bowman severely criticises Mission ary LOpp, who. he intimates acted in a very unmissionary-like manner. He also warns travellers to beware of the natives of Cape Prince of Wales.

AUSTRALIAN NLCKNAMES.
''Cornstalks.' "Gum-Suckers" and "CrOw-Eaters" Are Some of tha
 Pet AppellatiOna,

Although the Australian colonies have now been linked together in . commonwealth, it is not proba ble that the nickname bestowed by one prov ince on another will be abandoned. says the Leisure Hour. The inha bitants of New South Wales have long been known as "cornstalks," an allusion to the length and slimness of the aver age young New South Wales native. Nictorians are known as "gum-sllck CTS" with reference to the gum that is found on many native trees, some of which is relished by juveniles "Crow-eaters," as applied to the south Australians, owes its origin to a state ment that in times of drought the wheat farmers of south Australia are driven to the source suggested for food. "Wheatfielders" is a more eu- phonious name some times used for the same province. The Queenslanders are known as "banana landers," that trop- ical fruit growing there abundantly. Western Austraians-or, as they are now generally called. Westralians-- are known in the east as sand grpp- CTS" or ''gropers." The Westralians themselves group all the other states into ,"tOther side,"" and call the resi- dents "t'other iderA." Tasmania =. green little isle that is like England in c.~la:e and other characteristics, is generally regarded as very quiet and rather behind the times, and is re- ferred to as -'the land of lots of time,' the Hand of sleep a lot" and so on, while the inhabitants are called '"Tassies" and "jam-eaters," the latter being an allusion to the great fruit production of the tight little island"

'HERMITS IN LARGE TOWNS.
Many Denisens of Our Blg Cities Feel Lonesome ana Talk to
 Themselves.

A newspaper the other day record ed an anecdote about q prominent western physician on his first visit to New York, says the Commercial Advertiser. His dinner companion asked him what interested him most in the streets of the city. and the physician replied the fact that so many persons were encountered who were talking te themselves. He could not explain the phenomenon to his own satisfaction. and ventured the opinion that it was because people were so busy and carried their cares about with them. At least he could think of no other reason. Possibly it is because great city is such a sol- tary place for many, and solitude. of course, promotes self-cor,muning.
 Many persesi here is more truly hermit, cut off by inclination or cir eumstance from his fellows, than some recluses who live an ostenta- tious life of isolation. They pass their fellows on the street mutually unknown. Many persons have no friends; some have no desire to make any; others, probably with grega- rious instinct, are too diffident to push an acquaintance. So they talk to themselves as men in desert learn to talk to themselves. In n smaller place acquaintances would jolt a man out of the habit of talk ing to himself on the streets. but here nobody cares.
