1t Is both pleasant and encouraging
to all right-thinking men that all the
abuse and villifcation that has been
heaped on Grover Cleveland has not
been able to remove him from the ex-
allied place he occupies in the hearts
of the American people. Envious. mis-
guided or malicious enemies may revile
him but he stands today at the very
head of American statesmen, not
only for what he has done, but for
what he is. and for what he stands for.
When the future historian comes to
make up the roll of great statesmen
and great Democrats, Grover Cleve-
land will occupy a place very near the
head.

The people of Jefferson County can
not look at the Shugart case except as
shame and a disgrace upon our sup
posed Justice and freedom. Was the
jury fixed? We are not justified in say
ing this was so. but We can say that
about nine-tenths of the law abiding
people in Jefferson County have an
idea that 1t is so. It is indeed a dis
grace on Jefferson County How can
lynchings cease? If a man has Ylittle
money and can prove very clearly that
he is guilty he will come clear as did
Shugart. If poor. friendless negro

would have had a trial and been hang
