Life Of Cleveland n Busy One.
Grover Cleveland, the twenty-second
and twenty-fourth President of the Unit
ed States, was born March 10, 1887. in
Caldwell, N. Y. In s the Cleveland
family removed to Fayetteville, n. Y,
where young Grover received his first
schooling, and where later at an carly age
he served as a clerk In a small country
store. Still later, when his parents set
tied in Clinton, N. Y, he pursued his
studies further, and when only II he was
appointed assistant teacher in the New
York institution for the blind. In 1855
Cleveland served a clerkship with the law
nrm or Rogers, Bowen & Rogers at BUT
falo. 1t was in that Office that Cleve-
land began to read law. He was admit
ted to the New York bar In 1859. Mr..
Cleveland received his first public Office
when appointed assistant district attor-
ney of Erie county. In 1869 he joined
the firm Of tanning, Cleveland & Folsom.
In 1881 he was nominated as the Demo
cratic candidate for Mayor of Buffalo and
was elected by the largest majority ever
given in that city, although the Repub-
lican State ticket was carried. In 1882
Mr.. Cleveland ran for Governor of New
York against Charles J. Folger, then
United States Secretary of the Treasury,
and won by a plurality of nearly 100000.
His administration was notable for the
simple and transformations way in which
he conducted the business of the State.
At the Democratic national convention
held in Chicago in July, 1884, Cleveland
was nominated by his party as its candi-
date for the presidency Of the United
States and at the election in the follow
ing November was chosen to that Office.
