COmmOner Comments.

The interesting discovery has been made
that the panic of l907-0S began almost on
the date that President Roosevelt ordered
the motto taken from the gold coins. That
ought to relieve the g. 0. p. of respon-
sibility.
The humble indianapolis machinist who
was fined 81 800 for violation of the anti
trust laws has been dispossessed of his home
in order that the fine might be collected.
The Standard Oil Company has not yet paid
It's fine.
The war department. has issued an order
that no officer shall be chosen who is less
than Eve feet, five inches in height. What
the country now needs is more men in
charge OF the war department. who wear
better than six and three-quarter hats.
The Buffalo man who claims he can raise
the dead should be sent to Washington and
allowed to try his hand on tariff revision
by his friends Also on Representative
government as illustrated by the republi-
can majority under Speaker Cannon.
The lumber trust has been administered
a severe blow by the killing Of the Appal-
achian and White Mountain reserve bills
and the refusal TO put wood pulp on the
free list. That is, the blow was almost as
fatal TO the lumber trust as that famous in
junction was to the beef trust.

ris- Colonel Watterson happened to
be at the White House. The president
requested him to escort Mrs. Cleve-
land, which the gallant 1entuckian
was happy to do. Between the acts
Mrs. Cleveland suddenly announced
that she desired very much to have a
chat with the noted actress The colo
mel arranged for her to visit Miss Nor
ris in the latter's dressing room De-
lighted with her experience, Mrs. Cleve-
land enthusiastically told her husband
about it as soon as the colonel took
her home
The president turned to Colonel Wat
terson and somewhat angrily reproaeh-
ed him for permitting the first lady of
the land to visit an actress in her dress
ing room instead of having the actress
call at the box He had trusted to
the eolonels age and discretion, he
said, to protect Mrs. Cleveland from
yielding to a schoolgirl fancy SO I'M
dignified.
Grover Cleveland was the first DEM
ocratic mayor of Buffalo and the first

since the civil war. Then he became
the first and only Democrat elected
to the presidency since James Buch-
anan, who defeated John C. Fremont,
the first Republican candidate, in 1856.
These facts enhance his distinction.
Helped Fanny Crosby With Her Hymns.
From his boyhood Mr.. Cleveland
manifested those traits of iron courage
which may be termed self confidence.
so characteristic of bis official career.
Young Growers first job away from
home was clerkship in school for
the blind. Fanny Crosby, the noted
hymn writer. herself blind, was d
teacher there. Young Cleveland used
to assist her by taking down her
poems in handwriting The principal
OF the school upbralded Miss Crosby
for utilizing Grover in that way. Gro

singer, you have q perfect right 70

The National Republican ticket is headed
by William H. Taft, OF Ohio, and James S.
Sherman, of New York. The platform will
be found in full on the second page of this
paper.
As almost invariably in the Presidential
tickets of the great parties in our country 3
past, William Fl. Taft and James S. Sher-
man are worthy citizens and eminent in
qualification for the high offices for which
they are named, and will represent the is
sues for which they now haye to stand.
II the Republican party be at this time
right in standing for Tariff taxes that OPP
press the many and add unending burdens
on them for the benefit of those already I'M
duly favored; if speculative Trusts should
be perpetuated and the honest industries of
the country are justly doomed to be their
prey for four years more, then this ticket
should be elected.
But before election day there must be a
more searching inquest and discussion than
eyer before; and the verdict is to be render
ed by jury of the whole American mill
ions.

| ton. Yet he was not always devoid
Of humor.
AT White House reception some
how a seedy looking tramp got in line.
He was Immediately behind one DR..
Lucky, who was introduced to the pres
ident Nobody was acquainted with
the tramp. Both he and Mr.. Cleveland
seemed embarrassed for the moment,
but the president rose to the. occasion.
Releasing the hand of DR.. Lucky, he
grasped that of the tramp and said cor
daily:
And you, suppose, are DR.. I'm
lucky"
Messages to Congress Penned by Himself.
1t is said that all the presidents to-
gether up to Mr.. Cleyelands time did
not leave so many state papers in their
own handwriting as did this hard
worker. Mr.. Cleveland insisted upon
attending personally to many affairs
which other presidents turned over to
their secretaries. His mind worked
best through his arm and his finger
tips. His messages to congress he
wrote with his own hand. as, in fact,
all his important state papers. Thus
nobody could charge him with being a
dictator.
President Cleveland's severe concep-
ton of dignity was indicated by his
quarrel with Colonel Henry Watterson,
the famous Kentucky editor. Once the
president was too busy to go to the
theater when young Mrs. Cleveland
expressed a desire TO hear Clara Nor

could not be called Steve by the people
of the United States But as the one
great national character of his day he
became respectfully and affectionately
known as Grover Everybody was III
terested in knowing what Grover was
doing at his Princeton home. When
Grover went fishing. everybody wanted
to know how many he caught and If
they We're cats, suckers or founders.
When Grover went duck hunting.
everybody waited eagerly to learn how
many he bagged
Even the simple story Of the self
preservation frog was highly divelting
to the great public This frog Mr.
Cleveland was using for bait. He had
not had a bite for an hour. Finally he
happened to glance down at his feet.
and there on rock sat little Mr.. Frog.
with the hook in his skin, enjoying life
In the open air.
Counting, at any rate, from the time
when lie first became president, Mr..
Cleveland never evinced any of the
personal magnetism qualities which are
calculated to make people think of him
by his first name, much less to sTed-
Dyke" it. Mr.. Cleveland was always
a dignifed person. More than that, he
was essentially austere and ponderous.
OF course he may have been quite 9TH
erwise when he went fishing. The
statement refers to his public appear
ances. He gave the impression of be-
ing mountainous mass Of mind, moy-
ing slowly, but surely, toward its ulti-
mate goal. and when he reached the
goal he stayed there and went into
camp. He did not get there by jumps
or jerks, by impuisiye catching at con-
illusions, but by the laborious method
of feeling his way and treading care
fully, though perhaps not softly. Presi-
dent Cleveland was big thinking ma
chine in constant operation, but so we'll
oiled That he made no unnecessary
noise He took his work SO seriously
and found 1t So exacting that no time
was left him for the lighter side Of
things, even il he had had the inclina.
