At 'last G rover Cleveland has risen,
above the narrow confines of a pet-:
tifogit g partisan and at one, leap
ii&a. reached the high' plane of pa
triolein. It makes no diflerece - to
the American people;what the-.poli-lie
of tue occupant of the White
llo (8f may be wheu the nation is
fuji.f h crisis. It is puly impor
tant ujm: the President shall be
T-DreriUtiv of all. the people in
tnar 715W3, and above all else broad
traded, libera1, patriotic, and an
A aerican through and through.
President Cleveland's message
voice the sentiment cf tha people.
It is un able state paper; His ana
lysis cf the Monroe doctrine is eo
clear that a child may ; understand
it. Eisjmaintenance of the rights
of Am rlca is firm, dignified and
rnvih. It is cf little import?"ce
thut evjce pscple can see in it only, a
bid for h third term. Political con
siderations may or may pot have
actuated the President. He has
ris i?i 10 the dignity of hi? great
olSoe has 20 bravely faced the
Uvvi tH much may be forgiven
hire. '
Tho message "will be read and., its
seii tfrhtv1. cs re-echoed by every naj
111 1 ;i& United States. When the
President of the "United States acts
lor a tae people in a grave ' einer
jKoncy, when he d 'ops the cloak of
iae pa -tisan, he snould have and will
havo the unfaltering Qsupport of
cyery 010 whe values country aboye
party. ' -." '. ' 7.''
. -It in a pleasure tor! .the Morning
Ad7er?ir to be able to sgree with
President Cleveland, anfdrwe heartily
congratulate him' upon -his manly
Aurican utterance whjclv is today
the talk of the civilized world.
It is good to be an American ! It
id good to have an American Presi
dent ! It ie good to be infthe right !
And it 1 cod to have an Executive
vfho, knowing the righst, dares mam
tarn it ! We are first and above all
lse Americana and patriots ! . y

7 Although not yeu SubeUh dated by
figures, it is not at all unlikely that
Great Britain" has i larger pop u la
tion than France for the. first time
in history. At the census of 1891
the United Kingdpta had 37,797,ooo
i inhabitants .against 38,3i3,ooo for
1 France: since then the. deaths have
regularly out-nuroereu; me uirtutj
in France, while the opposite.has
been the case in England..
"
Tjiey are very , liberal in Japan.
Not long ago a bridge was bnilt
which wri, so light that a -notice
was put up, "No animals allowed to
croes.". But.it was ; found impossi
ble to keep: the' rats cfi! .it, and in
order to haye a rule which could be
enforced, the notice was taken down
and 'Nb large animals allowed ' to
cross" was put up in itrplace.
Senator Peffer: has inade a calcu
lation which shows that the average
cost of burying deceased cengreeav
men is S3iooo. "the value of -an
American farm." This is manifeaU
ly improvident, and yet it is only
the simple truth to say thaV thre
have been cases in which the peo -
did not begrudge the expense, ;
; Montana papers are telling of a
two-year-old child in that State
that smokes cigars with as ; much
apparei.t pleasure as a seasoned old
smoker. Several persons tdl of
seeing the child provided with
apple and a lighted c'gar, and of his
sucking contentedly at the cigar in
preference to the apple,
There is great; regret' expressed
here at, the death of : Colonel, Rober

faithful worker" until the last.
