When tbe supper bad beenabouteoccluded
Mr. Fordney arose and In a abort

Mr. Verdney thought that It would be
well for tbe member of tbe company te

purposes. He desired te eiler a few sag.
gestlena and thought that It would be
proper te elect permanent officers at once,
Including a president, vice president, sec
retary, treasurer and an executive beard.
He auggeated that tbe beard Include tbe
otbeera and besides these consist of three
ether member. He thought the organiza
tion abeuld consist of these preaent and
the ones who were unavoidably absent
and believed It would be a geed Idea te
have an annual eupper en some day te be
Axed, for instanee Feb. 27ih.

This Count-" Dang-sreua Iinpslet te
Moaepollci, Traits and Combines,
A New Yerk TitraXA correspondent In
tertlewed President Cleveland en Wednes
day. Here 1 part of what tbe reporter sent
bis paper:
"1 save bad a long, and 1 need net add a
very Interesting tslk with President
Cleveland. It waa really a talk, for Mr.
Cleveland objects te a formal interview. He
preferred teAbat In a familiar and friendly
way about tie vsrlen topic wbleh Involve
the national welfare, end then give me a
free pen te describe both wbat I saw and
what I heard.
1 waa anxious te knew what he would
aay et tbe tnture prospects et tbe republic.
He ba oceupled a vantage ground from
whleh Jae could view the whole country
and sweep the horizon from Maine te
uaiuernia ana irem ine lanes te tne guir.
I therefore 1k1 the conversation te subjetr
bearing upon tbe question. He spoke wltb
the utmost frankness. He said :
I am a Demecra', with all the word
Implies. I am, moreover, an Intense
Democrat, In that I believe that the true
principles of the Democratic party are
eeeential te tbe highest wellbelng of this
country.
"During the war," he added "the Re
publican party had Huprerae and un
questioned control et publle polley. Ne
one will question the service It rendered at
that time, but the rank and 11 te of the army
was oampesed largely of Democrats. The
generate who wen renown were also many
of them Democrat. While there were
among the Republican a small minority
of hothead who found fault with the
Lincoln administration, and among tbe
Dsmecrata an equal number et fossil
whose timidity was a national misfortune,
the great bntk of the people from East te
West, wlthcut respeet te party affiliation,
were solidly patriotic any ready for any
necessary amount of aacriflee for the pres
ervation of our institutions. It 1 felly te
claim tbat tbe war waa fought by either
Republicans ei Democrats; It was fought by
the American cillzsn of tbe North."
But It u plain, be said with great serious
net, that under Republican administra
tion there has been given a fresh and
dangerous Impetus te monopolies, trusts
and combines. Immense fortunes bave
been accumulated, unknown In the day of
our fathers. They are a peculiarity of post pest
bellum times, and tbe control wbleh they
arbitrarily exercise ever tbe cost of exist
ence la a direct menace te the welfare et the
werklngmen and of our farmers.
Mr. Cleveland has very decided opinions
en thta enbjeet The party, be declares,
whleh willing encourages these evil ten
dencies 1 net worthy te be called tbe party
of the people.
Aa a Democrat the president believe
strongly in the masces, and haa a very large
sympathy for tbe working elassee. What
ever Interferes with their interests inter
fere with a great majority et our cltlzens.
A combine or trnst msy begin with tbe
simple purpose et making money without
oppression et the people, but It tends te put
tbe consumers et our country under tribute
te a greed constantly Increasing.
Commenting en tbe wonderful recovery
of the Seuth from a condition approaeblng
ruin te a degree of enterprise wbleb rood reed
era It In some Industries a competitor of tbe
North, he said tbat this sadden and mar mar
veleus recovery was a matter et pride ter
tbe wbele nation.
The Demucratle party must therefore be
true te itself whether In power or out It
must keep Itself the representative of tbe
rich and pecr alike, and maintain a solid
front against tbe ruthless encroaebments of
combined espltal which result In dividing
enr population Inte the abnormally rleb en
tbe one band and large multitudes et un
protected and laboring matsaj en tbe etber.
Tbe country wants mere of the spirit of
true Democraey, end tbe Domccratle parly,
If loyal te itaelr, must win In tbe long run.
There never was a tlme when wise coun
sels and harmonious action In tbe Deme
cratte party were mcre important te the
peopleof tbe country than new.
Toe new relations botween tbe wulte-i
and the negrees at tbe Seutb are gradually
arranging themselves. It must, howevor,
be a work et time and of a long time be bo be
fere an entirely satisfactory result cau be
reaebed.
While Mr. Cleveland believe tbnt mani
fest wrongs, either te white or blackp,
should net be tolerated, be bha by no
mean lest confidence In the fslr mluded
average publle opinion et tbe Beutb te de
the best wbleh tbe circumstance allow.
They knew tbe situation In all Its bearings
and te distrust their ability te deal wltb It
1 te distrust tbelr sincerity and falrneas.
He Is downright geed nalured ever his
defeat Tbe people alone, be said, bave a
right te rule tne country, and their will la
law. There Is no appeal from tbelrdeclalen,
and there should be none. Tbe people
oannet be deceived by false logic in tbe
long run, bowever. The werklngmen
eeem already te understand pretty well
tbe question submitted te thorn at
tbe last eleotlen. The action or the
farmers of the country presents tbe
strangest oendltlon of affairs whleh the
eanvasa developed. Tbey de net seem te
realize yet hew lmpoitabttbequostlon of
paying Immense additions for alt tbey uce
upon tbelr farm and all tbey wear upon
tbelr backa 1 te their prosperity, if net te
tbelr very existence, and bow much tbey
are neglected In the distribution et tbe pre
tended benefit of blgh protection. Retleo Retlee Retleo
tlen and experience tbe hardest of teacher
must set tbem right, for tbey certainly
belong in tbe ranks of tar 1 11 reformerf.
Mr. Cleveland baa no fear tbat tbe
Democratic polley of an adjustment of the
tariff te tbe wants and clrcumatarces el
these of our peeple who work for tbelr
living, with a due regard te all ether
legttimareinteresta and enterprises, will net
ultimately commend itself te tbe Amerlein
people. Wbat will help tbe peeple and
make tbelr burdens lighter Is what tbey
will bave lu tbe end; and there need be no
fear that tbey will net discover tbe way te
tbls end or tbst tbey will fall te attach them
selves te tbe party whleh consistently aud
honestly effers tbem relief.

JnOg slttchall ea Reform rreeedar.
The view taken by the lust lee of the
suprems oeurt of the several accomplished
aad proposed changes In the methods of
legal procedure waa forcibly expressed In
n opinion delivered by Judge Mitchell In
tbe case of Hubbard vs. Tembreek, appealed
rreea common plrasNe.3, Philadelphia, Tbe
plaintiff bad filed a "statement" under tbe
new proeedure act passed by the last Leg
islature. "The statement" says Justice
Mltehell, "la at least tbree times ss long aa
a declaration In the established form would
hsve been, and about ene half et It I occu
pied, net with the averment el fact, but
wltb a recital of evidence." Tbe defendant
put In an affidavit et defense, setting up
tbat the platntlil'a statement had net dis
closed any geed cause of aotlen, bnttbe
oeurt thinking otherwise Judgment was
rendered for tbe plaintiff for want et a
sufficient affidavit of defense."
The supreme oeurt affirms the Judgment,
but, In delivering tbe opinion, Just loe
Mitchell says: "Thlsoaseafferdsoneamong
many examples or the failure et the so se
called reform procedure te accomplish
anything towards the brevity, the clearness,
the accuracy or the convenience et legal
forma Se long a the fundamental principle
et our remedial Jurisprudence shall be, that
upon conflicting evidence, the Jury, aball
ascertain the facta, and upon ascertained
facts the judges ahall pronounce the law, se
long will It be a cardinal rule of pleading,
by whatever name pleading shall be called,
tbat tbe line of distinction between facta,
and tbe eyidenee te prove tbem shall be
kept clear and well defined. Tbe notion of
the reforming enthnstast that the average
litigant or hla average lawyer can make a
shorter, clearer, or less redundant atate
ment et hla own case If left te bis own bead
than If directed and restrained by the
settled forms, girted, tei'.ed and condensed
aa tbey have been by generation of the
aeuteat Intellect ever deveted te a logical
profession, Is as vain as tbat et any ether
compeunder of panaceas."
Ths ''Time a-" Editorial Apology.
The Londen 2'ime- te day, In It leading
editorial, quotes IB full the apology
tendered by Attorney Generat Webster
before the Parnell commission for the pub
lication of the ferged loiters, and centinues:
"We desire te endorse as appropriate
every word of the foregoing statement
It la our wish, ss It Is our duty, te de se.
Moreover, Mr. Parnell having In the
witness box stated tbat the letters
are forgeries, we must accept In svery
respect the truth of tbst statement In
these otrcuuiatanee we deem It right te
express our regret, most fully and
slneerely, at having been Induced te
publish the letters as Mr. Parnell'a
or te use thorn In evidence sgslnst
him. This expression of regret Includes
also the lettera falsely attributed te Mr.
Kgan, Mr. Davltt and Mr. O'Kelly.
It la seareely fitting new te enter
Inte the olrctimstaneoa under whleh we
received and published them. We are
bound, however, te point out that Plgett
was net tbe persenalia whom we oommu eommu oemmu
nloeted. Moreover, we must add that wa
firmly believed tbat the lettera were genu
ine until the disclosures made by Plgett en
Creat-examination. It mutt be evident te
all reasenable parsons tbat if a conspiracy
existed the 'Imcs was vlet m zsd by and
net a party te It
"Errors of judgment may have bean
emitted, and ter them the penalty must be
paid. It must be clearly understood that
what we have done la altogether upon our
own motion and our own responsibility
and In the publle Interest alone. This
withdrawal, el oeurse, refers exclusively te
tbe Icttera obtained from Plgett"
