ployes who go out on strike will lose

MO OTHER man has stepped so
~ qD :R1y from obscurity to the
presidency aa Grover Cleveland. When
Garfield stood on the steps of the cap
itol 10 be inaugurated he never had
heard the name of this Buffalo attor-
ney, who was TO stand in the same
place four years afterward.
At forty-five Cleveland remained n
known outside his county. At forty
seven he was in the White House.
1t was a meteoric rise. Yet this man
was no meteor. Slow of mind. with a
narrow range of reading and of intel
lectual interests, Cleveland was stolid
in manner and without brilliant quail
tiles. But he had a character as rug
ged and immOvable as a mountain. It
had been built up in rural parsonages,
where his father, a Presbyterian min
lister, was required to rear a large fam
lily and set an example to the commu-
nifty on 5000 a year.
For more than q quarter of a cen
fury he plOdded along in Buffalo, a
quiet, trusted, but not distinguished
lawyer. Unmarried and without family
or a home, he took no part in the So
cial life of his community, where 100
other BuffalOnians may have been bet
ter known % their fellow-townsmen.
He had been an assistant district at
torney of Erie county and also its
sheriff. The first that was ever heard

of him outside his ne~ighborhOod We're
his sledge-hammer vetoeS from the
mayors office only two years before his
election &c the presidency. The whole
state of New York stopped to listen
to his resounding whackS and next the
whole country took notice.
The sudden, the theatrical rise OF
the mar was not a mere caprice, a
blind stroke of luck. On the contrary,
he was nominated and elected presi-
dent because he was the logical, com
nonsense choice; because this un-
known, unambitious lawyer of Buffalo
had become in two swift years the
most conspicuous embodiment OF the
things that the times called for-inde-
pendence in politics and a higher
standard of conduct in office.
Here was a man VINO was to make
his own precedents, a mai who was
10 care fer nothing that had nap
pened before he happened. The FIRST
president after the Civil war to have
had no part in that strife, he was WITH
out a political past, and his face was
turned wholly to the future.
He struck dismay to the greedy
hopes of the Democrats, after their
long wandering in a wilderness with
out spoils, by announcing that he,
would let the Republican oflce-hold-
ers finish their terms, with the eX-
ception of those who had been guilty
Of offensive partiSanship.' Whehi
the Republican senate attempted TO
interfere with such removals as he
did make, he objected to the revival
of an old statute after an existence
of nearly 20 years of almost innocu-
Gus desuetude.' This ln.ase Wsa 10
much for the senators, and the act was
repealed.
At last Cleveland deliberately sac
riiced himself for the sake of plain
speaking. The prospects of his re-
election were bright. His native con
~servation had made him a favorite
in the great financial centers of New
York, and the all-powerful business
interests of the country were salts
fed with him. But on the V of the
electic'. - 1883 he upset h, entire

The Penn's Grove record., 1921-05-20

A S THE Democrats had lost power
IA under a bachelor president, james
Buchanan, they regained it after a
quarter of a century under another
bachelor president. That strange CO
incidence was brought to an end By
Cleveland's marriage in the second
year of his administration.
From the day Cleveland entered the
executive mansion at Albany, gossip
busily made matches for him with one
after another of the eligible women
who appeared at his receptions. A spe-
cial favOrite of those persistent ru-
mors was the pretty widow of one of
his old law partners, Oscar Folsom,
whose home was one of the few homes
in Buffalo where this unsOcial person
had been in the habit of visiting. 1t
was not suspected that all along his
Own choice had been the daughter
rather than the mother.
Mrs. Folsom and her daughter were
guests of the president and Miss Cleye-
land in their first month at the White
House. Even the wiseacres of Wash.
ingtOn did not guess that the beautiful
young girl who a present at a re-
ceptiOn-all in white-would in anoth-
er year be the bride of her host.
Miss Folsom had graduated and was
travelling in Europe when the country
was set in a fiutter by the announce
ment of her engagement. She return
ed home to meet such an ordeal as nc
other American girl of twenty-five eyeI
has faced. Her name was on every
tongue in America; her portrait wa,

crowded about her ship from which
she was struggled aboard a revenue
cutter to avoid the curious crowd at
New York dock.
There had been only one marriage
of a president, and John Tyler was a
widOwer. which took some of the ro-
nance u of the occasion. For the
first time a president was to marry
in the White House. AS Miss Folsom's
mother had given up her home and as
her grandfather'S house was in mourn
ing for his recent death, like the
affianced of a sovereign she went to
her husbands home TO be married.
The wedding in the blue OF was
extremely simple, the only guests be
ing a few relatives of the bride and
groom and the members of the cabi-
net. After the cake had been cut in
the state dining room, the bridal pair
succeeded in stealing out the back door
under cover of darkness to a waiting
train in a switch yard. They had
eluded the curious crowds gathered in
front of the White House and at the
station, but not the ubiquitous press,
whose locomotive was under steam and
in readiness to pursue them, with a
trainload of reporters, to their honey
moon retreat in the Maryland noun
tains.
The continued attention of a vigl
liant press wherever the presidential
couple went was Indignantly resented
by the bridegroom, who hotly de-
nounced the "ghoulish glee" with which
his family affairs We're discussed. More
malicious, more cruel were the imprint
ed tales which were persistently circu-
lated as long as he remained in public
life.
Mrs. Cleveland is said on one occa-
sion to have given a pathetic hint of
what the strokes aimed at the presi-
dent through her little ones meant to
a mother. With childlike bashfulness
a daughter was holding back from the
greetings of a small company at the
White House, when Mrs. Cleveland
said, Speak up, dear, or the people
