ALLEVIATE that large wing of the De.
mocracy which believed In a high
tariff for the support OF American
industries was greeted by the Brit
ish press with profound admiration.
Eminent political economists in the
United States declared this message TO
be one of the ablest of presidential pa
pers. The presidents stand for reduc-
tions in the tariff on revenue only"
basis was the subject Of much discus
sion pro and con for many years fol-
lowing.
Mr.. Cleveland received the Demo
cratic nomination for president in 1888,
but was defeated in the election by
Benjamin Harrison of Indiana. Many
Democrats attributed his defeat to his
tariff message of 1887. After Mr..
Harrison's election and the consequent
TRADE of criticism from members OF
the presidents own party Mr.. Cleve-
land sent for the speaker of the house
of representatives, John G. Carlisle, a
Democrat, and said to him. "If every
other man in the country abandons
this issue, shall stick to It"
Accordingly in the last message Of
his term he stuck to- his stand on
the tariff problem. urging congress in
1889 to enact laws IN line with his
suggestions of the winter before.
Cleveland retired to private life
March 4, $780, and settled In New
York city for the practice of the law.
He was not particularly active In pofl-
tics after his retirement.
In the meantime history was making.
Harrison and high tariff were in the
saddle. The Mckinley act OF 1890, In.
creasinG the tariff on wool. tin plate
and other products. was followed by
high prices for the poor mans necessn.
ries Of life. Events rapidly were shap.
Ing themselves toward vindication OF
Grover Cleveland. The ex-prcsfdent at.
tended TO his law work, and the
people did the rest. With the politi-
clans, as OF old. mostly in opposi.
tion, the independent Democratic vot-
ers forced the selection of Cleve-
land delegates to the national Demo
ocratic convention of 1892, held in
! June. -Four more years OF Grover"
was the campaign cry. Though the
New York delegation opposed him, Mr..
Cleveland was nominated for the presi-
dency the third time in succession or
the first ballot. President Harrison
again was his Republican opponent.
Cleveland was elected. receiving 2T7
electoral votes against l45 for Harrison
and % for General Weaver. Populist.

even at the cost of war between
the United States and England. Great
Britain had refused to submit to ar
bttration certain boundary dispute
with Venezuela. President Cleveland
advised the appointment OF COM
mission to determine for Itself the
boundary line between the two coun-
tries with view to enforce an ac-
ceptance of this line by Great Brit
ain. The Monroe doctrine having been
accepted from. the moment OF its pro-
mitigation by Secretary of State John
Quincy Adams as part and parcel OF
sacred American polity, the entire ma
ton stood by the president In his
plucky stand. Congress also stood by
him. England drew in her horns and
accepted the situation gracefully.
Grover Cleveland for the time was
great popular hero. However, his de-
feat for denomination In 1896, had he
desired the honor, was foregone con-
clusion. Tariff as an issue was tum-
bled into that condition which years
before Mr.. Cleveland had described as
''innocuous desuetude." Thcf coin
age of silver was demanded by the
Democratic majority, Mr.. Cleveland
supported the Palmer and Buckner
gold Democratic ticket. When he
handed over the governmental reins to
President William Mckinley, March a,
1897. he stepped out of office forever.
Mr.. Cleveland settled For himself the
problem as TO what to do with an ex-
president by retiring gracefully to
Princeton. N. J., in the shadow Of the
great university which he as a poor
boy vainly had hoped to enter. Here
he built home and grew old with his
family Of bright young children grow
ing up about him. TWO more girls
and two boys were born.
During and after his presidential
terms the Cleveland fishing and duck
hunting expeditions supplied much ma
terial to the press.
In 1908 Mr.. Cleveland was introduc-
ed in st, Louis as ''the most distln-
guished private citizen in the world"
By that time his political opponents in
both OF the great parties. generally
speaking, had come to look upon him
as historical figure. and by the vast
majority of Americans the venerable
ex-presldent was regarded as true
patriot an honest public servant and
an able chief executive.

marching of the men was a pleasing
sight.
The band was attired in Scottish
costumes when making the parade.
Many of the people of Clarksburg
had never scen a Scottish band ar
rayed in historical Scotch costume,
and to those it was a spectacular as
well as a musical treat. This cos
tune is unique and gorgeous one,
resembling somewhat that of the
wealthy orientals, but is much more
graceful, more artistic, and delight
fully romantic looking.

Unusual obstacles beset the presiden-
tial pathway OF Cleveland from the
moment of his Inauguration. Shut out
from executive favor for practically n
generation. the Democratic politicians
were avid for Office. The president
sought to adhere to policy opposed to
removal from office of competent off,
cinls except as to heads Of divisions
and other important officeholders, but
the Jacksonian cry ITO the victors be-
long the spoilsr became so insistent
that the president was induced to mod
ify his policy to the extent Of remoy-
ais for offensive partisanshfp," n
phrase coined by him which speedily
became famous. In the light of his
tory 1t must be admitted that "offen-
siye partisaus" In federal offices were
exceedingly numerous in those days.
Republican postmasters were slaugh-
tered by wholesale.
In storehouse connected with the
war department were many crates of
battlefiags captured from southern
armies. At the suggestion of the ad-
5utant general Mr.. Cleveland ordered
that the flags be returned TO the states
from whose regiments they had been
captured. Certain Grand Army posts
became so indignant that they passed
resolutions strongly censurlng the pres
ident. with insinuations against him
because he had employed n substitute
instead Of going into the army during
the war. This incident, which took
place In 1887, was intensified in It's ncri-
mony from the G. A. r. side because
the president had vetoed civil war pen
sion bills In hundreds of individual
cases wherein he believed the applicant
was not entitled to pension. He had
become known MS ''the veto president"
as he had been the veto mayor and the
veto governor. So harsh was the clam.

CaperS Decides Dealers Must
Not Sell Same Brand I'm
der Different Labels.
ASKS SPECIAL TAX
ON EACH PRODUCT
Ruling Opposes One Made by
Yerkes Several Years Ago-Asked
for by ProhibitiOnists.

a decision has just been rendered by
the Commissioner of Internal Revenue
that will check, If not stop altogether,
the practice tat has prevailed for years
among certain rectifers and wholesale
liquor dealers OF putting on the market
the same product under different names.
The Commissioner decision reverses
a ruling OF former Commissioner Xerkes,
who held that rectifiers and wholesale
liquor dealers could place on the market
the same product under a half dozen
different names or styles without being
subject 10 a special tax for each.
Commissioner Capers, in a carefully
prepared opinion, decides that any
person, firm. or corporation carrying
on business as rectiier or wholesale
liquor dealer at one place or time under
different names, must pay a separate
special tax for each name or style IN
der which the business Is done"
And the business under each name
must be done in the same manner as If
done in but one name.
If the practice Of carrying on bust
ness by the reCtiiers or wholesale liquor
dealers is continued il will add largely
TO Uncle Sans revenues, but 1t is be-
lieved BY the Treasury officials that
the practice will be discontinued. This
question Of names and styles, it was
intimated today, was brought to the
attention of the department by the Pro
hibiuOnists. who are fighting the liquor
dealers.
In prohibition States. a careful watch
is kept on all whisky shipped into the
State, and the name of the brand or
the wholesale liquor dealer often leads
10 the prevention Of further importa-
tons OF the same kind. When such
prevention becomes effective, the same
liquor dealer ships into the prohibition
State another lot OF whisky under an
other name It was the discovery Of
this trick OF substituting names that
brought the matter 10 the attention OF
the Internal Revenue Bureau.
