Although this is usually the dull
season of the year, there are indica'
tions that business will improve in
Mineral Point from this time forward
The great zinc works are being
made still greater by changes and i'm
provements.
Two large settling chambers are be,
ing constructed for the purpose OF
carrying the sulphur fumes from the
roasters into the high smoke-stack on
the east side of the works.
II is believed that when these cham
bers are built and connected with the
smoke-stack that there will be no fur
ther complaint Of vegetation in the
neighborhood of the works being
destroyed by the escaping of the sui
phur fumes.
Both blocks of the oxide plant are
in full operation and large quantities
of oxide are being manufactured daily.
Shipments of oxide have been steady
and are now larger than at this time
last year.
The outlook is encouraging for
Mineral Point. Our present condition
is far more desirable than boom

bad after effects.

GROVER CLEVELAND.

Grover Cleveland was one Of the
greatest and one of the most fortu-
nate men of the United States.
Having had a most remarkable
public career during which he was
assailed most bitterly and was hon
estly believed by a good number Of
his fellow-countrymen to be an en-
envy of the public welfare, he lived
to see time wipe out the canker of
political strife and to receive wide
spread expressions of respect and es-
TEEN from those glad to acknowledge
him a patriot.
In other words, Grover Cleveland
lived the strenuous life, and did not
have to await the erection of his
tombstone to have his good qualities
referred to with sincere praise. This
Is vouchsafed to all too few public
men.
As President of the United States
Grover Cleveland made some terrible
mistakes and all but wrecked the
prestige of America In the Pacific.
On the other hand, he was tower Of
strength during serious crises In the
domestic affairs of the Nation, when
wildcat finance threatened and the
assertion of Federal authority to pre-
serve decent respect of the law
called for courage as well as discre-
ton.
AS a partizan Cleveland was a
doubtful quantity. He represented
revolt from party rule rather than
strict partizanship. He was tariff
for-revenue Democrat and when the
sound-money issue was deserted by
the majority of his partizan associ'
ates he was among the boilers. He
did not allow the commands of party
to warp his personal convictions
Mugwumpism first elected him.
As a party leader he had most diff
ficult tasks. The Democracy was di
vided against itself and held its owr
more on account of a general spirit
Of discomfort and demand for {
change, than marked confidence II
the organization, its stability, or III
ability to carry out what 1t under
took. Cleveland's personality event
ually became the chief source Of
Democratic strength.
Following his retirement from thu
Presidency Mr.. Cleveland furnished
an example Of the ideal spirit of oul
institutions. Twice honored as thu
Chief Executive of the Nation, h,
became, on retirement, the averag,
American citizen. He neither com

forward in matters Of public duty
when called, all the while taking ar
active interest In the affairs of tn,
country. He was not assertive, con
ceited, or dictatorial. His view
were much sought, and Away,
carried great weight. He was tn,
average American citizen though h,
had been an unusual President. W,
doubt that later years will give hin
any stronger place in history thai
that allotted him while he was we
alive. Sufficient time has passed t,

tial succession. and the settlement of
the fisheries dispute with Great Brit
ain. His removals from non-political
Office were less sweeping than those
since President Jackson; of 9S7
bills passed by Congress up to Au-
gust, 1856, he vetoed 102, chiefly pri-
vate bills. He won sharp contest
with the Senate over suspensions and
nominations; and devoted his 1887
message entirely to the existing tar

forced the repeal of the Sherman Sill

the treasury's gold reserve by the
successive issue of government bonds,
and saved its credit throughout the
world, despite furious opposition by
large sections of his own and the Re-

President Harrison, enforced the
