THE! CAN NOT BEAT HIM.
Wo notice among oar Republican
exchanges a strong attempt to defeat
the nomination of Mr. Cleveland.
This is very sad indeed, especially
when wo reflect that only three
months ago tbeso same organs were
declaring that his nomination and
bis defeat wero inevitable.
Having failed to secure bis defeat
in advanco of his nomination; con
vinced that he is too strong to be
beaten by any man tho Republicans
can name, our Republican friends
are trying to forco Gov. Hill on the
party.
They assure us that the President
was really defeatod in Now York the
other day. It was then charged that
tho President wanted the National
Convention hold in Now York city,
but that Gov. Hill had fixed ou Cbi
cago. Now they Buy it would be in
the interest of Hill to hold tho con
vention in New York city.
The Cincinnati Commercial Ga
zatte had in its issue last Monday
throe separato news articles to provi
that Mr, Cleveland’s nomination n
in doubt and his defeat in case ol
his nomination assured by defections
among tho Democrats. One o’
these articles contains a dispatch
from New York, insisting that Mr.
Gleveland’s nomination depends on
New York city.
As a matter of fact Mr. Cleveland
would be nominated though a solin
New York deligation favored Mr:
Hill.
The second article pioduces an
editori-d from the Albany Times, de
daring Cleveland can not bo elected,
bat the Times is an unknown qnnnti
ty in journalism and in politics- The
arguments it advances to sustain its
assertions are the ones which con
vinco tho average voter that Clove
land is tho man for the place.
The third article in our Ohio con
temporary foreshadowing the down
full of Cleveland comes from Indian
npoli6, and it assures the public that
the President is not popular among
(he Bourbons; that ho would only be
reluctantly supported us a politic-
necessity, and that Hill is the bo>
for tho Hoosier voters.
This is doing very well for a liten
ry bureau iu out day. Hill and Rtt
dall it seems have bom given thi
freedom of tho columns of our R
publican contemporaries. Now lei
ns in the vein of prophesy make a

C08TLT CHARITY.
The Ladies Memorial Association
of Montgomery, Ala., have made a
report on tire resul oft the Kirmesa
for the benefit of the Confederate
monument fund. The total receipts
were $1,402, the total expenses $1,*
107, leaving a balance ot $29o for
the monument.
This is generally the result ot
charitable entertainments. There is
nothing so costly as charity in this
form. Here the public paid $1,402
in order to give tho Association $295
—less than twenty-five per cent. Be
sides, the ladies undoubtedly did a
large amount of work for which they
got nothing. Charitable entertain
merits are well dercribed by the man
who gave ten cents for the benefit of
the benighted heathen and then gave
a dollar to get the ten cents to the
heathen. It would be much cheaper
for tho public and more profitable for
the charitable enterprise if each per
son would contribute directly what
money he could a fiord to spend.
There are, however, many persons
who would not contribute a cent who
will spend five or ton dollars at a
church fair. There are also many
husbands who would not allow their
wives to contribute twenty-live cents
money, who will allow her to spend
five dollars in materials for cakes and
fancy work fora fuir. It probably
cannot be helped, but our charities
are unnecessarily costly and very
small after the expenses are paid.
Rosooo Conkling, writing to
friend in Wisconsin, mournfully re
grets ‘‘that for some years now, the
party (Republican) in which you and
l believe so much, has not maintain
ed its usefulness and vigor. Quite
out of the current now myself, and
powerless to influence the councils
of those who manage and direct, I
•hall hope for the best, and trust that
the leaders will find some way to
bring back tho earnestness and wis
dom which now, as much as ever
dtioe the war, are needed.”
A Chicago preacher threatens the
sinners ot that city with being hurl
ed into the bottomless pit unless they
mend their wicked ways. This is an
old tunc threat, but it will not phase
the Chicago sinners, because they
know the fall would lie easy in a bot
tomlcss pit. It is being thrown into

This paper will shortly begin the publication of a Serial Story with the above title, and
of intense interest. Each chapter is alive with excitement and the plot moves on with a
power and spirit which will, we believe, make this one of the most acceptable serials we have
ever offered in these columns.
THE BRETON MILLS
Is a story that will satisfy the popular demand for intense interest in each installment. The
scene is laid in a New England factory village. Both the employing class and the class of
the employed furnish adlors in the thrilling romance, and the reader’s interest will be closely
held all through the changing scenes of the story. While not taking sides on the questions
interesting working people, which are touched upon in tlie story, tlie author dissedls the pa¬
thetic elements of the life of the poor with fearless hand. Still liis romance, after all, is a
romance of love, and all else in the story is only introduced to solve the problem of one
man’s devoted and faithful nature.
