Mr. CleTcland's Address.
Mr. Cleveland devoted his address te
the Bosten merchants te the subject of
ballet reform, which he vigorously
advocated, declaring that the objections
te ita methods will fade awny ns hnve
these hlch were urged ngnlnst civil
eervlce reform. He veutured te say that
though net all of these who urged their
objections te the popular Australinu
system can be fairly charged with being
leta of ballet reform, yet It was within
their ranks that the enemies of the re
form are te be looked for, working Iu dis
guise against It. Many persons will
think that this was coining mighty
close te smoking out the governor
of New Yerk, one David D. Hill,
who Is largely advertised as n candidate
for the Dcmocratie presidential nomina
tion, upon which Mr. Cleveland Is gen
erally supposed te have n first lien.
Governer Hill vetoed a ballet reform
bill passed by Iho last New Yerk Legis
lature because of certain objections of
his own concocting thnt did net have
much meat in them te the ordinary
mind ; but the governor stoutly pro
claimed his devotion all the while te
ballet reform. He may regard it ns a
beautiful thing abstractly considered,
but he'evldently has entirely tee much
trouble in clearing the tlcld for Its prnc.
tlcal working te entitle himself te the
loud laudation of the fervid friends of
the reform. And he does net get It. He
has net wen the acclaim of the friends
of either ballet or civil service reform.
Cleveland has, for an cx-prcsldcnt, a
remarkably geed standing among the
civil scrvlce reformers, who seem te
think thnt he did very well for their
cause considering the embarrassing cir
cumstances surrounding the presidency,
and which appear te be quite tee much
for his successor in the elllce. If civil
service reform had as geed chance
of complete fruition as hns ballet
reform, its friends might be well
content. The popular demand for
ballet reform is well nigh unanimous
outside the peddling politician; bitt
there arc a geed many peeple, whoure
net Intetcstcd iu practical politics,
who have little appreciation of
civil service reform, ns it is prac
ticed and preached, and who urge
weighty objcetlous against the doctrine;
such for instance as its teudlng te create
an aristocracy of ofilcc-helilers. Te many
people, the eutapllllng of the office
holders occasionally see a wholesome
performance. But no one thinks
it wholesome that the secrecy of the
ballet shall net be preserved ; and none
ean deny that the only cllectual way te
preserve it is in the isolation of the voter
whlkUte votes. It is a simple expedient
that is necessary te secure the reform,
and the only one that will de it. It Is
represented iu a law til at has had the
vindication of a practical umj for many
years; and there docs net seem te be any
reason why these who really want ballet
reform should net want this law.
Bebert Drowning.
The death of Itebcrt Browning will of
course draw out extravagunt eulogies of
a man who undoubtedly pefescBsed great
poetical abilities and as certainly ninde
peer use of them. He might have been
a poet of the messes, for when he chose
te be simple and forcible he usually suc
ceeded, and he has written lines that
de net need careful study te make
plain their beauties. He chose te
be the poet of the select and studious
few and appealed te the curious Interest
that tempts men te waste time iu un
ravelling piuzles. He wus a profound
and keen thinker, but he took little
pains te make h)6 thought clear, and It
must filter down through ether minds
before it becomes actually available te
the great mass of Intelligent acting and
thinking men and women. Ne poet
ver lived who was se much written
about and commented ou in his life
time. Thousands of readers have wasted
millions of valuable minutes in trying te
find out just what Mr. Browning meant
while he calmly neglected te take the
least trouble te make himself clear.
Great thoughts, Imagination and artistic
sentiment are net enough te make a
great poet and because Mr. Browning
paid little attention te the musical
beauty of his lines and the clearness
of his language he can never take
rank as a great poet. His writings arc
voluminous and his failure te say bet
ter what he hnd te say cannot
ta chargeS te economy of time
or labor, for he gave plenty of
both, often repeated himself, and took
no pains te condense his work. Perhaps
His fortunate that be thus failed te take
higher rank as a poct.'ferhls philosophy
Is net of a very healthy and cheerful
kind. His wife, Elizabeth Barrett, In
spired the best of his lines and will long
held place as a noble ioet, and the bet
ter known and honored. This remark
able union of genius assures te both
mere lasting fame.
The Daft System.
The street committee having gene te
, Easten te see the Daft system of electric
N?ar propulsion that is established thcte,
report thntJt worked well, was satisfac
tory te the citizens and that the poles
and wires were no greater annoy anney annoy
anee there than here. All of which
we are quite ready te believe. We de
net knew of any objection te the Daft
system have its wires and poles, and
doubtless they arc no werse than the
wires and poles we have, save that they
add an additional number te them. If
the councils think that the system
will de and that It will net
b3 well te wait for the develop
ment of a geed underground conduit
system, we will be content. But they
should take the matter up ngulu and
Kpress their views In the light of the
information they have gained since the
night when they went head ever heels
for the scheme, in n way that
seated te people te make the name
or the electric system they favored
very applicable te their conduct, which
was daft Indeed. Be sure you arc rlg'it,

Dr. Hlgbce.
Dr. Hlgbec, whose sudden death baa
shocked the community, was a man of
great natural feres and mental vigor.
Of late years his powers have been
checked by the condition of his health 5
and his fame as a preacher has been
held In abeyance by his connection
with the school department, where his
labors were net particularly suited te his
talents. He was enjoying his third term
or the superlntcndcncy, but beyond the
honor and the salary of the ofllce he get
llttle satisfaction from It and would
doubtless have been a happier and per
haps n longer 11 ved man without lta cares.
Executive ofllce needs a different and a
mere homely talent than that which Is
held by the man of brilliant Imagination
and words, who shines upon the rostrum
but whose light is vainly shed In tlie
office.

sympathy with the Seuth In struggling
with It.
Wiikn Orover Clevcland talks It always
pavs te listen, and the firmest, henest
member of the party of Dudley, Quay and
TVunatimker cannot deny the truth and
fslrnrss of his stntcment that political
evils "lmve brcn tolerated by rcspectable
men who, In weakness nnd patriotic senti
ment, have regarded tlicm ns only plmses
of shrewd political management," nnd
the warmest friends of President Harrison
must admit that these evlls " have been
nctunlly encouraged by the honors which
have been bestow cd upon theso who beast
of their use of such ngenclcs In nld of
jiarty supreniney."
Srmateii Cali.'k resolution requesting
the president te nrgotlate for thn purchase

keep that Irrepressible Cuban question be

.Spain hna been, she has nlways shown a
firm and ndmlrable determination net te
relinquish n feet of Cuban ground without
a struggle. AVe may blame her for mis mis
gevernment, but alie could forcibly retort
In the wune tone, nnd the bollevors In the
possibility of averting nil wars by arbltra arbltra

Americans that Cuba will surely be tern

Immediately by the loud baying of hounds.
At this moment, bruin, with a blew from
one of his great paws, knocked the ax from
her hand nod wounded her painfully en
her right arm. She sunk te tbe tloer, but
before the bear could seize her, ttve huge
black hounds, which she knew te be her
husband's dogs, rubbed in and tackled the
bear. A moment later, herhiuband rushed
in and blew the hear's bruins out. When
the bear's carcass wan examined it was
found that the brave woman had cut it In
10 places with her nxe. It weighed, when
