President Cleveland’s Statesmanship. Mr. Cleveland’s record, brief as it is, has beer, so crowded with character and performance that no one who studies it with a candid mind can fail to find in it evidence of a statesman ship of the very sort that is emphatical ly demanded in the Presidency. A great part of this evidence relates to the sim ple, direct, honest discharge of duty, but the principles upon which he has acted in that discharge of duty are rad ical and essential, and he has expressed with them a decision and clearness which leave no doubt of his intellectual capacity and his moral strength. His letters and speeches, his messages as Mayor and as Governor, are all char acterized by the same forcible perspic uity: no one can be under any doubt as to their meaning; they do not admit of two interpretations. When Mr. Cleve land was called upon to reform the municipality of Buffalo he made a short speech in accepting the _ nomination which struck the key-note of his ser vice. “When,”, he said, “we consider that public ojlicials are the trustees of the people and hold their places and exercise their powers for the benefit of the people, there should need no higher inducement to a faithful and honest dis charge of public duty.” “These are very old truths,” he added, but he be lieved that the people wanted them, “sincerely and without mental reserva tion, adopted as a rule of conduct.” When he addressed his inaugural mes sage to the Common Council he knew that there were those in that body who were not converted to such a rule of conduct, and he admonished them in terms similar to those he has lately used in reference to National affairs. The money of the people must not be di verted to other purposes than their pro tection and interest, there must not be a greater sum used in any municipal purpose than is necessary; “it sometimes appears,” ho warned them, that “the oflice-holder assumes that a different rule of fidelity prevails between him and the tax-payer than that which should regu late his conduct when as an individual he holds the money' of his neighbor.” The jobbers in the Common Council got to work as if Mayor Cleveland’s words had meant nothing in particular, but they were undeceived when his notable veto of the street-cleaning contract award came. The Council had given the contract of cleaning the streets of Buffalo for live years for $422,500, more than $lOO,OOO higher than that of an other perfectly responsible party, and $50,000 more the’ the successful con tractor had himself offered to do it for a few weeks before. His indignant veto message is a revelation of a rooted hon esty of nature: This is a time tor plain speech, and my ob jection to the action of your honorable body now under consideration shall be plainly stated. I withhold my assent from the same because I regard it as the culmination of a most barefaced, impudent and shameless scheme to betray the interests of the people and worse than squander the public money. I will not be misunderstood iu this matter. There are those whose vote* were given for this resolution whom I can not and will not suspect of a willful neglect of the interests they are sworn to protect; but it lias been fully demonstrated that there are influences both in and about your honorable body which it behooves every honest man to watch and avoid with the greatest care. * * Clumsy appeals to prejudice or passion; insinuations, with a kind of low. cheap cunning, as to the motives and purposes of others: and the mock heroism of brazen effrontery which openly de clare that a wholesome public sentiment is to be set at naught, sometimes deceives and leads honest meu to aid in the consummation of schemes which if exposed they would look upon with abhorrence. * * We are fast gaining positions iu the grades of public stew ardship. There is no middle ground. Tlioso who are not for the people, either in or out of your honorable body, are against them, and should be treated accordingly. There is a healthy ring in those sen tences that left no doubt as to Cleve land’s quality. The message made known to the Democracy of New York, as one says, that “a leader had arisen ‘with the courage and ability to perpet rate the reforms which Governor Tilden •had instituted into the State;” but it I made that known to the country as well. f We need not repeat the story of how he saved Buffalo within six months a mil lion dollars by veto messages, which, as a Republican paper said, “have become municipal classics,” and by careful per sonal administration of affairs. He for the first time in the history of the eitv made it imperative that the Auditor should really audit, by a thorough ex amination of the city accounts, instead of a mere formal certification of totals. He substituted competition for work that had been used for political patron age. Everywhere he saw that the peo ple got the full value of their money. He was not deterred by the danger of misconstruction from following his con victions; he vetoed resolutions appro priating money for a firemen’s benevo lent association and for the Decoration Day •observances, on constitutional and legal grounds, just as afterward when he was Governor, he vetoed the five cent fare bill and the Catholic Protec tory bill. His practice of civil reform in the affairs of Buffalo was re called last year When he vetoed the reconstruction of the Buffalo Fire Department, a Democratic measure, concerning which he said: “A tried, economical and efficient administration of an important department in a large city is to be destroyed, upon partisan grounds or to satisfy personal animosi ties, in order that the places and pa tronage attached thereto may be used for party advancement. I believe,” he added, “in an open and sturdy parti sanship which secures the legiti mate advantages of party suprem acy, but parties were made for the peo ple, and I am unwilling to give my as sent to measures purely partisan, which will sacrifice or endanger their inter ests.” That is an admirable sentiment and worthy of a statesman. Cleveland has repeatedly expressed the soundest principles on this matter. In accepting the nomination for Governor, he said: “Subordinates in public place should be selected and retained for their efficiency, and not because they may be used to ac complish partisan ends.” Again: “The system of levying assessments for partisan purposes<on those holding office or place can not be too strongly condemned. Through the thin disguise of voluntary contributions, this is seen to be naked extortion, reducing the compensation which should be honestly earned, and swelling a fund used to debauch the people and defeat the popular will.” The statesmanship of to-day is face to face with the problems of labor and capital as they never presented them selves before. Labor in this country is demanding more Than it ever did, and demanding it with formidable intelli gence and purpose, and through organ ized associations. Capital is united and wielded by gigantic corporations. Cleveland has had something to say and to do in relation to the issues con stantly arising. Corporations, he de clares, should be protected in their le gitimate sphere, “but when by combina tion or by the exercise of unwar ranted power they oppress the people, the same authority which cre ated should restrain them and protect the rights of the citizen. ” “ The labor ng classes . . . should be protected in their efforts peaceably to assert their rights when endangered by aggregated capita., and all statutes on this subject should recognize the care of the State for honest toil, and be framed with a view of improving the condition of the workingman.” These were Cleveland’s declarations before he became Gov ernor. Almost his first act as Governor was to appoint the Railroad Commission of one Republican, one Democrat and one representative of anti-monopoly. He took an early opportunity to urge a greater publicity of all corporation pro ceedings, by requiring minute and fre quent reports, that the public may know how their funds are spent, and said the .State should provide a way “by which the squandering or misuse of cor porate funds should be made good to the parties injured.” He passed every bill but one of the seven introduced into the Legislature last year by the State Trades Assembly, including the aboli tion of convict contract labor and the establishment of a Bureau of Labor Sta tistics. The bill he vetoed was the bill to regulate the hours of labor of con ductors and drivers of New York City horse-cars, his reason being solely that it would not accomplish the object de sired. It will be found that in every in stance where he has disapproved a bill desired in the interest of labor, it has been from his faithfulness to another strong and worthy trait of his charac ter, his uncompromising thoroughness. It shows also his absolute disregard for his own personal interests, which could h£ve been so easily served by signing this and other defective bills. In short, wherever we follow Gov ernor Cleveland, we find genuineness, thoroughness, courage, subordination of self, a high sense of public honor and honesty, and a conscience for the serv ice of the people. He said at the Buffalo semi-centennial in 1882: “We boast of our citizenship to-night. But this citizenship brings with it duties not unlike those we owe our neighbor and our God.” He has been faithful to this high conception of the citizen’s responsibilities—faithful already in great things, and he has shown the capacity and the conscience to be faith ful in the greatest things the Nation has to employ its servants with. — Springfield {Mass.) Republican. GARRISONED BY WOMEN. The Historic Tragedy of a I,lltie Hamlet in the Carpathian llillg. A quiet little valley shut in on every side by dark hills; a long, low, many windowed building far below, with red roof and white walls, past which—bare ly visible at this height—curve the slen der iron threads of the railway; a paint ed palisade across the road about one hundred yards beyond it* jnarking the point where the Austria'* Empire ends and the Principality of Roumania com mences; a few tiny cottages a little further down the valley (each encircled bv its own < jiool of tilth) which are the sole representatives of the “Predeal” that make such a figure in the local maps. Probably not. one foreigner in a hundred has ever heard of even the name of Predeal, but among the native population it has gained an imperisha ble renown from the memory of a great crime and a fearful tragedy. When the armies of Russia came swarming through the Carpathian Passes in 1849, to crush by sheer weight of numbers the gallant Hungarians whose valor had swept away the blustering tyranny of Austria like chaff before the whirl wind, it was by way of Predeal and the Tom os Gorge that the destroyers ad vanced upon the doomed town of Kezdi Vasarhely. But even these grim sol diers were chilled with a nameless hor ror at the first sight of the town. Not a living soul was to be seen. Every house was fast shut and barred, and the only sound heard was the dismal toll of the church bell, which seemed to be lamenting over the dead. And well it might, for every man of the popula tion had fallen in the lost battle of the morning, and the houses were garri soned only by women and children, who had sworn not to survive the ruin of their country. Shaking off' their first terror, the soldiers to force the doors of the nearest houses, and the final tragedy began. Every house be came a fortress, from which stones, boiling oil and scalding water rained down upon the assailants, heaping the forsaken streets with the dying and the dead. Savage yells, shrieks of anguish and the ceaseless crackle of musketry filled the outer air, while the mournful bell boomed drearily through the up roar; but those within fought in stern silence, neither giving nor asking mer cy. Till uightfall this superhuman combat raged, and then the wearied slayers began to hope that their work was done. But just then a show« of fire-brands, cast from the church tower overhead, by the crippled boy who had tolled the death-knell, fired the dry roofs of the houses, and the whole town was soon one red and roaring blaze, in which victors and vanquished perished together. —Philadelphia Press. —An anecdote. Years ago a Ver mont farmer lost many sheep through the depredations of wolves. He jour neyed to Boston and returned with a wolf dog which cost him many dollars. He started out the next day and soon his dog was following up a scent rapid ly and disappeared in the woods. The farmer on horseback followed and met a chopper: “Wall, stranger, did yer see e’er a dog and a wolf go by?” “Yaas.” “Wall, how was it?!’ “Thedorgwasa leetle ahead. ” —Somerville Jovrnal. —Utah has ten thousand small farms, averaging twenty-five acres each, and all irrigated. There is only one large farm in the territory, and that is owned by a company., When Two Sharpers Meet. A Buffalo man while in New York re cently descended from the elevated road station at Chatham Sqij&re. As he did so he stopped for a minute and gazed around to get his bearings. A bright, spruce young man of pleasing appearance stepped up to him and said: “Why, how are you? It’s a long time since I’ve seen you.” The Buffalonian, who is a lawyer, sized the young man up and acknowl edged, with about a ton of ice in his manner, that it was a long time. “You don’t seem to recognize me,” said the sharper. “No, I don’t,” was the reply. “I am with Benedict Bros., you know.” “Oh, and what is their business?” “Dealers in cutlery.” “H’m, yes; well, why don’t you at tend to their business?” The sharper thought he would, and he did. —Buffalo Eipms. The Exact Time. It is utterly impossible for even a suc cessful presidential candidate to feel as important as is a boy when he is al lowed to carry a watch for the first time. “What time is it, sonny?” asked a gentleman of a boy on an Austin street car. The boy smiled, and looking at his astronomical time piece replied: “Do you want the exact time?” “If you please.” “In two minutes it will be three min utes to five minutes to a quarter past three,” replied the young man. —Texas Siftings. —Beware of small boots! Three vears ago Adam Pfaff, of Waisaw, N. V., was drawn as a juryman and wore to court a new pair of boots which were considerably too small for him. Al though they gave him intense pain, he kept them on during the day. At night when he removed hi 3 boots he found no rest and was unable to sleep. His feet, legs, hands, arms and body began to swell, and a physician was called. Medical aid was of no avail, and from that day to this the intense pain has never left him for an instant. His {’oints are enlarged, while his feet and lands are swollen to three times their natural size. He is entirely helpless, and has to be fed like a baby. He spent thousands of dollars to gain relief, but no physician has been able to under stand bis peculiar case.— Buffalo Cour ier. —Preparations are being made at the observatory on Mount Hamilton, fifty miles southeast from San Francisco, for the reception of the great Lick refrac ting telescope, i No less than forty thous and tons of hard trap rock have been removed for this purpose, and work is being carried on fo the erection of a dome seventy-five feet in diameter to shelter the telescope.
