TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION: The Weext.y Times, published every Wednesday, will be sent to any address ane year, postage paid, for $1.25. FOR GROVER CLEVELAND. The editor of the Times has al- ways been and is now astrong Cleve land man and if sent as a delegate to the National convention will cast his vote in that convention for Gro- ver Cleveland for presidential nomi- nee on the democratic ticket. If it is impossible to nominate Mr. Cleveland, then we believe that the best interests of the great west and of the democratic party will | best subserved by the nomination a western man, and we would so vote in the convention. We this statement in order that the del egates to the county convention next Saturday can understand our posi tion, and those who vote for us must do so with the understanding that we will certainly vote for Cleveland in the National convention, if a del- egate. make SHOULD BE ENDORSED. Never in the history of Butler has the city prospered as it has under the administration of the present of- ficers for the past two years. When Col. Pace was elected mayor work ou the streets had been suspended, the crossings were in bad repairjand the office of street commissioner had virtually been abolished, the treas urywas depleted and ten per cent was being written in the face of the warrants in order to get the cash and keep up appearances, the board had failed to meet for months and it looked as if the town was go- ing to the “demnition bow-wows.” The democratic party elected Col. Jas. L. Pace for mayur, Hon. W. W. Graves for attorney and seven out of the eight aldemen, all good and true men, possessed of brains and energy. Under the able mau- agement of these competent and faithful servants Butler was to blossom and bloow as a full blown roze. Contidence was established in the stability of the city and private improvements began to show them- selves on every hand. The city tres- ury was replenished and much of its indebteduess liquidated. A sys tem of water-works second to none in the great southwest, was secured as a lasting monument to this board Our streets were graded up and crossings repaired, and the board is seeing thata better system of side walks is being put down than ever betore in the city’s history. A splen did system of electric are lights Lave been secured for lighting the streets and an incandescent system for pri- vate consumption. The city light- iug under this contract cost Butler one third less than the same service is costing any other town in the state. During the first year and one half “of Col. Pace’s term as mayor he neg lected his private business and devot- ed his whole time to looking after the city’s interests. He ed as street commissioner for months without compensation and looked after the city’s interests during the construction of the water-works, at the request of the council for which he received slight compensation. All these im- provements have been added with- out increasing the tax of the property owners onecent. All this is due ina large measure to the splendid executive ability of Col. Pace, and the excellent board of al- dermen. On next monday evening the Democrats will meet to nomi- nate a city ticket for the spring elec- tion, and they should make no mis- take by taking up new and untried men to conduct the city's affairs, but should retain old, tried and true of- ficers who have demonstrated their faithfulness in everything. made sery Indiania republisans succeeded in instructing for the president. but not until they had hissed down an inquiry “What has Harrison done?” They knew he had appointed many Indiana men to office and that was enough. —Kansas City Star.
