Judge Taft On Cleveland
Former President Tafts estimate
of Grover Cleveland as expressed in
his Grafton was as follows-
Mr.. Cleveland was not a great
lawyer; he was not a great econo-
mist; he was not great orator; but
he was a great president and a great
man; and he was these because of
the strong mind, clear intelligence
and wide knowledge of affairs.
He had the character, honesty,
courage and sense of pub:.c duty
which enabled him to meet great and
critical issues without regard to per-
sonal consequences. When he was
nominated for the third time for the
presidency 1t was against the will OF
the politicians and by popular upris-
ing in the ranks of the party. He was
partisan and believed in parties, as
every one must who wishes popular
government to succeed; but he look

government and when 1t was made
an instrument TO accomplish purpos-
es disastrous to the public veal, he
refused to follow 1t ="
