carrying out of the Democratic platform and he succeeded in hay ing 1t carried out
 The Democratic platform had declared for tariff reform, but three Democratic senators-Gor- man, Smith and Bryce-declared that unless certain interests were protected they would join with the Republicans to defeat all tariff revision. These renegades had their way. Tariff reform as proposed by William l.. Wilson was emaseulated and MT. Cleve- land allowed the bill to become law without his signatures. Had NIT. Cleveland been supported by his party, the history of the country might have been chang ed.
 MT. Cleveland retired from of fee discredited by his own party, but he lived long enough to see all his policies vindicated. The Republicans profted by his tidel- ity to the party pledges, and since he retired from office he has been a potent factor in pulp lie affairs and has enjoyed the esteem of all Americans of all parties. William Jennings Bry- an recently offered resolution of sympathy before great con- ference and 1t was sent to tie dying eX-presldent.
 History will do justice to Mr. Cleveland. He has beer q Dem oerat of the JefferSorian school. He believed in Democratic prillei- pies. He was on record against the fight on local seIf-govern- ment, the basis of Democratic faith. He subscribed to the doc trine of tie fule of the people, He was great, conservative force. Tiny politicians in lis party assailed him. Small fry statesmen Yiliied him. But lie pursued the even tenor of his way.
 Grover Cleveland has wrought well for the republie.. He proved himself an honest man, eourag- eous citizens, an honorable factor in public life, all iIlustrious American.
 It is with feeling of peculiar sadness that We record the fact of his passing away. Perhaps he broached no ideas differing essentially from those Q: the im- mortal Jefferson, but he was true to the faith when 1t needed friends; he never faltered when erring public sentiment was against him; and We can say truthfully that the sentiment of the country has come to him, and that the future of the republic will be grounded on the prinei- pies to which, throughout his life, he Was an anfaltering friend.

The death of Grover Cleveland removes the greatest living American. When the history of the republic k to be written in the future, certain names will stand out in letters of living light. First, of course, will come George Washington, the father of hls country; then Thomas Jeff ferson, the greatest statesman the world has ever seen; then Abraham Lincoln, the Southern born man, who helped to pre- serve the union; finally Grover Cleveland, the man who, since the war, has done most for his country. The South loved Will liam Mckinley; and Theodore Roosevelt has been the most pop ular of our presidents. but he IS too near Us to be judged impar- italy, and he has lived in a time when there we're comparatively few vital issues to be solved.
 Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln and Cleveland are our four great presidents. Mr. Cleveland IS the only Democrat since the war who has been elected without dispute, Had Samuel ]. Tilden ever been allowed to take the seat from which he was swindled, he would doubtless have made all illus trious president; but II was not to be. and so there K 10 use speculating on what might have been.
 Grover Cleveland was great American. He was entirely bove partisan politics and got down to essential principles. In whatever office he ottapled lie devoted himself, single hearted, to tie discharge ot his duties. He stood for honest government. When he Was governor of New York, he devoted himself to the duties ot his office and paid To attention to his presidential can didacy. He never turned over his hand 10 secure the presiden- t.al nomination. He was busy at the time with the task of se- curing clean legislation for New York and putting the grafter in his own party to flight.

President Harrison lodged the issue. was defeated, and be- queathed a panic to his success sor. How Mr. Cleveland handled the situation is a matter ot his tory.
 The Democratic party lad in its national platform declared for a repeal of the purchasing clause of the Sherman act. When congress assembled with large Democratic majority, many of the congressman wanted to go back OIL the Democratic platform and leave the Sherman act as 1t was. MT. Cleveland stood for a
