Mr.. Cleveland was a broader man
that Judge Parker. His motto was not
my party. right or wrong" but my
country before my party" Upon the
broadcast public grounds he recon-
mended to his fellow citizens to vote
for Judge Taft, In whose hands tire
interests of the republic would be safe.
1t is difficult to understand how any
Cleveland can find anything in the
present Bryan programme which re-
minds him of the Cleveland policies.
1t is difficult even t. understand how
any personal friend Of Mr.. Cleveland
can vote the Bryan ticket without feel
ing that he is insulting the memory Of
the dead ex-president. At the Demo-
cratic national convention of 1896,
when MI. Cleveland had been making
q heroic stand for the public credit, a
resolution Of Endorsement of his ad-
ministration, though couched In the
most general terms. was voted down,
B64 to 357, by those who were bent
Upon the nomination of Bryan. Bryan
and his followers would not at that
time ever commend the honesty, fdel-
ity and courage Of a Democratic presi-
dent.
As the convention Of this year ap-
preached, with the bells hardly silent
which tolled the funeral dirge Of the
ex-president, some resolutions were
prepared by Judge Parker, commend
ing the administration Of Mr.. Cleve-
land, including his efforts to support
the public credit. Inevitably a resolu-
ton of this sort was like a red rag to
a bull when 1t flashed across the eyes
Of the advocates of free silver and free
paper. The matter of indorsing Mr..
Cleveland was taken out of the hands
Of Judge Parker and of the sound
money men of the east and q colorless
set of resolutions prepared which
might as well have been passed in
memory of Polk or Buchanan.
The true friends Of Mr.. Cleveland,
who stood shoulder to shoulder with
him through the whirlwind Of calumny
showered upon him by Bryan and his
followers. are likely to find little sign
Of q change of heart In the present at
tltude of the Bryan party toward the
last Democratic administration. This
Is significant, beyond the question of
persons, because 1t goes to show that
Mr.. Bryan is not ready to openly re-
cant any Of his fallacies In regard to
the monetary system and the national
credit. Upon every ground Of public
duty as well as self respect the true
friends OF Mr.. Cleveland. whether they
call themselves Democrats Or simply
Independent and patriotic citizens. are
more likely to cast their votes for a
candidate who represents their sound
money principles than to lie down with
the lamhlike innocence Of Judge Par.
ker with the lion Of free silver and
free greenbacka at the risk Of being T.
