THAT CLEVELAND LETTER FRAUD Some time ago a letter purporting to have been written by the late ex- President Grover Cleveland was pub ! Ilshod In the New York Time*. This | letter endorsed the candidacy of [ Judge Taft against Mr. Bryan, and was expected to exert, a great Influ ! nice In determining voters to support j Judgr Taft. Mr Cleveland wav. held In the hlgir j e*t ,-stecm by a large number of in -1 fiuentla! men. They had the greatest confidence In Ills integrity and In hIH i Judgment. Although Mr. Cleveland ; was a life long democrat he was a \ patriot above a partisan. He loved I his country more than hla party, and i when he opposed Bryan In 181)6, It | was Cleveland perhaps more than ! juny oth<-r man to whom the bolt was; due which resulted In the candidacy, of [’aimer and Buckner, and to that opposition to Bryan within the demo- i cratlc parly which resulted In hla defeat. It was believed that If Cleve land living should now take the same position of antagonism to Mr. Bryan It would ngiiln result In hading from his support tha, element In the demo italic party which followed Cleve land’s lead In 1836, and turn It over lo Judge Taft. Anil Cleveland being dead, It was hoped that a letter from him. posthumously published, Indira’.- i Ing Ills preference for Judge Taft In ' the present race, would have the I same effect. For this reason the letter was pub lished by the New York Times, a stalwart republican organ, which paid a good, round sum for Ihe copy. Tho authenticity of this letter was doubled and disputed from the first. It ha* now been proven a fraud, and admitted to he such by The Times, which was made the Innocent partici pant of tills despicable crime. It appeals now that sordid avarice or a deep laid conspiracy was at the bottom of this fraud. The article was old to The Times by Broughton Brandenburg, a magazine writer, who agreed to pay lo the Cleveland esta’e j a percentage of the proceeds of the j rale of not only the article In ques , lion lull of (fillers which he said had , be, n prepared by him tinder the J| , icitlon of Mr Cleveland. Mr Hast j legs, on behalf of tho estate, had | agreed to accept the terms offered by Mr Brandenburg which Induced; The Tillies to buy and publish It. What will he done lo Brandenburg to punish him for this crime remains In be seen. There Is no specific sta. me covering such a crime, for It Is • xeecdlngly rure. Indeed, so far as known, this is the first Instance in \ which a dead mans character and reputation has been made tin- stock In trade of a literary ghoul. It is ! (orliinHie tha, the crime was so soon j detected, since this villain had con lemplutcd coining more money for himself out of the sale of further copy of the sulne kind. To Mrs. Cleveland Is due the chief credit for bringing this fraud to light. From the first she doubted the au thenticity of this letter and. assisted by friends, site Instituted a searching Investigation, which resulted In ex posing the fraud The letter had been printed In him- I dreds of thousands of pamphlets sent out be the national republican cam : pnlgu committee a* a campaign duett j menl. In view of the fraud It Is now proven to be It should have exactly the opposite effect to that which it was Intended to produce. Mr Cleveland was not opposed to llrysn or In fnvor of Tad Had he lived he would have supported Bryan, and dead his friends will honor him ! by lining what death prevented him from doing, helping to elect W. J. Bryan. THE STEER PLOWING CONTEST. When the first great stter-plowtng contest In the state was pulled off si j the tieoiulav'aroilua fair, between ) the editors of the Dalton CHI ten and The Augusta Herald, Col .1 Lindsay I 1 Johnson, of the Rome Trtbtine-Her - ahl vy.'s chosen to act ns Judge.

Hut not only has he dream ed about It, but he has practiced. By grapevine telegraph the information has been brought that, he practiced an hour each morning plowing t mighty steer In -t new ground.

Art ful Col.

MARRIAGE BY PROXY A eurlouß case has arisen In New York which Is causing much discus sion In the papers and much worry to Hie parti'-s directly Interested, and the question Is now submilled for set tlement to the highest lutoruatloua) authorities. It 1*: “Is a marriage by proxy performed in this country legal?” It seems thm a man living In one of Ihe South American countries de ► ires to marry a young woman who is at present living in New York. He has a friend living In New York whom ho desires to represent him at a marriage ceremony duly to be cele brated In New York, after which the bride ts 10 come to him is his wife. The young woman approves of this plan, which la only awaiting the en dorsement of the authorities io whom It has been referred. II said that in South American countries such proxy marriages are by no means rare, and are recogniz ed as valid a* any other fotm. Is also point) | out that among royal ty such marriage* occur sometime.) From this the position is takeu tha'. proxy marriages should also be leg)!- lied In our country. The New York Time*, In this dismission, argues tha; "Such marriages have been recognis ed as legal and proper in nest times and countrlea, by both f'huroh and Slate, Hint certainly, on Ihe theory that marriage |s a contract, there Is no reason why the principal* should not be permitted to bind themsefves, as they can In other contracts, b> th • acts ol duly authorized agents or rep resent at ivos," % However reasonable this view may i appear, these will not tie many to agree to it. Marriage is a contract, to be sure, but It Is iiullkt any other kind of contract, since Ihe happiness of two lives at.d perhaps much more than lhat depends upon it. For this reason It Is necessary tb.tl the ntsk tug of a marriage contract be h•■dgl'(l cbout with conditions which are noi necessary In the making and sealing of other contracts, and one of these condition* is that both contracting parties b-» present, and lit the pres i nee ot each othi r and of witnesses affirm Hint they enter Into this sto red contract ot their own free will and desire. This condition I* not IMissihie in a proxy marriage. A\ hat may be the custom In South American c muffles does not concern us They have many customs thet which we can never approve, misce genation rot one Also wh.vt royal ty may sometime* do Is not th question, for royalty bus ways of its iw" which rvott) st pcopl-- cntßioi ap prove King Henry A’lll cut oil the head of a wife when he found a new affinity who preferred to be his wife rather than ht* mistress, and Emper or Napoleon divorced himself from the wife who had been thi making of hi* fortune to marry the character bss young daughter of an emperor. Kings may marry by j-roxy and they may contract left handed marring '* which are both consider'd local, but neither form la necessary or wise for ordinary, honey t people. Why this South American can mv come to New York m main this lady jin proper farm t* not stall'd i’-.i hap* there are reasons which make | this Impossible. Rut th« re can b> jno reason why the bride-elect could I not go to h’s country, and there lr married to him In proper tor n with |out the proxy mummery This would i leavu her flee to ri fuse before the ] speaking of the final word.

Sir: In your issue of September the 25th you have an editorial on "The Wirz Monument,” and as you have so nearly sized up my own views, I feel that I must say, well done to you. You are certainly right about the location of the monument, it should be erected in a moat conspicuous po sition at Andersonville, where all the sightseers who visit that historic place can, or rather, will be obliged to see it. Now ihe inscription. This is the most important thing about the monu ment, more so, even than the location; more so, far more so, than the cost or beauty or material of which it is made. The inscription should not only "re cite the story of Major Wirz’a death, unjustly inflicted, to satisfy popular clamor," but it should also recite the horribly unjust trial at which one hundred and sixty-five witnesses were examined, and out of this number only fifteen could he induced to say any thing against him, and one, at least of these fifteen, a deserter from the United States army. The inscription should also recite the facts about the prisoners who died while in the enemies hands, both North and South, giving the number of Confederate prisoners who died in Union prisons and the whole num ber captured, and the number of Union prisoners who died in Confed erate prisons, and the whole number captured. If these facts are inscrib ed on this monument it will prove to all who read it beyond any doubt that the Northern prisoners in Southern prisons were better ' taken care of than the Southern prisoners in North ern prisons. The inscription should also recite the fact that the medicines that were considered necessary to cure most ot the ailments of the South were made contraband of war by the United States government, and the Confed erate soldier could not get them for friend or foe. This inscription should be a his tory showing to future generations these facts that have been so long and carefully hidden away from the children of our land. I don't want any one-sided, cantankerous spirit to write this inscription, hut some broad minded person who will write “the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth." Let it be chiseled so deeply In the marble that time will not obliterate it, and so plain “that a wayfaring man though a fool may read it." A Son of a Confederate Soldier. Barnwell, S. C., Sept. 28, 1908. OUTRAGED VIRTUE. As leader of the Grand Old Party Mr. Roosevelt is morally outraged by Ihe thought that a person like Charlie Haskell can hold public office and be identified with the management of a ; great political organization. Mr. Roosevelt himself was nominat- j ed for governor of New York by that eminent purist Thomas Collier Platt. ] His nomination for vice president j was forced by those equally single-1 minded reformers Thomas Collier Platt and Matthew Stanley Quay ] Mr. Roosevelt used to" call Marcus Alonzo Hanna “Uncle Mark," and , when that unselfish political philan- j trophist was not sufficiently enthu siastic over (he Roosevelt candidacy the president used Joseph Benson Foraker to club Uncle Mark into sub mission. Standard Oil is a stench in the pres- j idential nostrils; but the Standard Oil i bank still maintains its intimate rela- j tions with the treasury department, i Harrlman is hateful; but Harrlman has not yet been compelled to answer the questions put to him nineteen months ago hv the interstate com merce commission. No presidential lightning strikes Unde Joe Cannon for protecting the paper trust. John Dalzell still repre sents the steel trust in congress, and Mr Roosevelt lumps him among the ! republican candidates whose election is necessary to preserve the govern-i ment from corporation influence. Thy virtue that cannot abide Haskell counsels freely with Aldrich, Penrose. Elkins and Scott. Klihu Root, who was Thomas F. Ryan's personal attorney, remains in the cabinet as secretary of state. , One of J. Pierpont Morgan's partners is Mr. Root's assistant secretary; au-1 other Is collecting republican cam- 1 palgn tribute in Pennsylvania, and a ! third came back from Europe recent- ; ly to express Ills great satisfaction with the election returns from Ver mont. George R. Sheldon is still in Wall street divorcing the ruthless mnlefartor* from their campaign con tributions. Surely It cannot be the Haskell cor poration affiliation alone which so In censes Mr. Roosevelt. Neither can it be the sordid fact that Haskell has been caught wltu the goods. The I author of the letter to "My Dear Sherman" In the matter of the Har dman 1260,000 campaign contribution would never repudiate a fellow-states man simply for being the victim of a .little unexpected ami. undestrejl pul, Hetty.
