CLEVELAND ON CITIZENSHIP.
Former President Sounds Warning
Against Neglect Of Political Duty.

Chicago, Oct 15.--CirOver Cleveland
sounded a cali for a new crusade which
shall rescue the political holy land from
the infidel of corrupt methods in a,i-
dressing the Commercial Club and its
guests at the Auditorium hotel last
night. He pleaded for pure politics and
the integrity of government, and sum-
moned all good men of every party to
join their efforts to that end.
Taking American Good citizenship
as his subject the x-President warned
his hearers that the prevailing sense
of the security of the republic and the
pernlanency of its institutions was the
present greatest danger of the nation.
1t was to arouse the citizens to a real
ization of this condition that he direct
ed attention to what he termed the
"canker" which was trying to eat its
way into the body polite.
Under bond, as he said, to keep the
peace and not talk politics." Mr.. Cleve-
land evaded partisanship, but with
keen sarcasm for the argument of those
who were too busy" to take part in
| politics. and with calm eloquence III
presenting the duty of every citizen he
brought frequent appreciation in the
| form of hearty applause.
! 1T is time there should be an end to
| self satisfied qualification or pretense
of virtue in the phrase am not pol
! itician,' said the ex-president, "anl
| it is time to forbid the prostitution o1
| the word to sinister use. Every citi-
izen should be politician enough "
| bring himself within the true meaning
OF the term, as one who concerns him
self with the regulation or government
1 of a nation, or state, or the preserya-
ton of it's safety, peace and prosper
! ity.''
He said In part:
Our government was made by pa :
trlotic, unselfish. sober minded people
/ 1t is suited to such a people; but foi
those who are selfish. corrupt and UNI
| patriotic, it is the worst government
on earth.
