The Cleveland administration is not memorable for originating or inaugu- rating any new policy or principle with respect either to our domestic affairs or our foreign relations, It did nothing for which the American people can feel either proud or gratoful. Its influence upon the country was depressing and discouraging. It made no serious effort to extend our foreign commerce. There ishardly a branch of the public service that did not decline in efficiency during that administration. Every business man at least remembers how tho postal service deteriorated, and loose, careless and unbusiness-like management char- acterized nearly every department and bureau of the government. It is claimed that it was a safe admin- istration so far as financial affairs were concerned, but it could not be otherwise since it was compelled to act under laws enacted by republican congresses; yet even as to this it is remembered that at a time of great financial stress the treasury hesitated solong to exercise the authority given it to ielieve the money market that the country was brought to the verge of a panic. An- other claim is that the Cleveland ad- ministration did a great deal to advance civil service reform, yet there was never appointed in the publicservicoa greater number of unworthy and incompetent men.

In the management tional relations the woakness of the Cleveland administration excited the ridicule of the world and brought hu- miliation to the American people. In the fishery controversy with Canadaand in the Bering sea dispute it accom- plished absolutely nothing to the ad- vantage of thiscountry. It made nearly every concession that was asked by the forcign governments, and manifested throughout the discussion of these is- sues an incapacity and timidity that caused Americans everywhere to feel a sense of shame.

We are really sorry for them, we TEr democrats who attended the Chi- cago convention seem to have more vid recollections of the refreshments in the California headquarters than of any other feature of the occasion. BEN BuTLER says he thinks ueither Cleveland nor Harrison is as strong as four years ago. Ben Butler has in mind a man who he thinks would make a very strong candidate, but he is too modes? to mention his name. THE good people of St. Joseph, Mo, are inflamed beeauseof the proposed ex- hibition at the World’s fair of the house in St. Joseph in which Jesse James was killed. They think it is a poor way to advertise the town and state, and it is. tion. The idea of cultivating closer com- meveial relations betweon the United States and other American countries received no attention or favor whatever from President Cleveland. In short, the only thing that distinguished his ad- ministration was the enunciation in favor of tariff reform—not original with him—and it isa matter of history that he became alarmed at tho stand he had tuken if® this matter and before the meeting of the democratic national con- vention of 1888 was anxious to do some- thing to modify his position. Vastly different is the record of the administration of President Harrison. During the last three years home in- dustries have multiplied, domestic and foreign commerce has largely in- creased, the financial condition of the country has improved, and progressand prospority have attended every interest. Reciprocity hus opened the way to en- larged markets for our products of farm and factory, the obstructions that were maintained against us for years in European markets have been removed, and we have made a greater advance toward commercial supremacy iu the world than during any previous twenty years of our nistory. In BLOOMINGTON, Ill, is the home of Stevenson. This is the second tume that town has come near to the vice presi- dency. The other time was when David Davis, who resided there, wus president of the senate and acting vice presideut.

SILVER AND THE PZOPLE'S PARTY, The importance of the convention of the peoplo’s party is widely recogaized. The present tendency of public senti- ment in the silver states indicates that this new party is to receive recruits from the ranks of both of the old politi- cal organizations in those states and that the silver,question is to bs made preminent in the convention. It is be- lieved that the democratic party will furnish by far the larger number of these recrilts,owir g to the fact that the It sHOULD not be forgotten that ono of tho groat events for Omaha in this eventful yoear will be tho visit of the Shoiners und commanderies of Knights Tenplar in August.

Omuha may gnin much 10 tho geod opinion of the country by showing s proper consideras ‘I old rties will undoubtedly be repre- sented at the people’s conventivn by those who ure dissatisfied with the sil- ver planks adonted ut Minneapolis and Chieago. It will not be surprising if the fiat tion for these distinguished visitors, money idea shull prove to be secondary to the free silver scheme befors the close of the convention. Chairman Tau- beneck of the national executive com- mittee of the party seems to hold this view, and it is evident that he looks for large accessions from the old par- ties upon the silver issue. He expects that the democrats of Colorado, who have called a state convention to con- sider the subject, will elect delegntes to confer with the people’s party at Omaha, and the Denver News, which has utterly repudinted the action of its party at Chicago, says that the silver men now turn to the people’s party and urge that strong delegations from all the free coinage states be sent to Omaha, Without spaculating upon the effect which this movement wiil have in its bearing upon the republican and the democratic parties, it may safely be said thatthe proceedings of a convention composed of 1,776 regular delegates and alarge number of silver mon from. the old parties, who will ba on the ground to influence the convention in bohalf of the interest which they represent, can= not fail to be full of interest for the whole country. The debates will afford opportunity for the expression of a grent many curious notions of finance and ex- ploded schemes for the relief of the prople from burdens imposed by the inevitable operation of natural laws, but the silver question promises to be the live topic of discussion. It is not to be denied that the action taken upon this subject will be important in its influence upon poli- ties in the fres coinage states. There will be some able men in the people’s convention and there will be a season of eloquence and enthusiasm in Omaha that will stiv the town in much tho sams manner that Minneapolisand Chicago have lately been stivred. The city promises a warm welcome to the delegates and the trainloads of silver men who propose to be present from the mining states, and bids them bring along all the eloquence and enthusiasm they please and as much Fourth of July patriotism as possible. A BAD STRUCTURE. It is stated by the Chicago Herald that the wigwam in which the demo- tic national convention was held in that city was *‘the most unfit structure for the purpose designed ever orected in this or any other country.” A newspaper that professes to be in- dependent should take a more compre- hensive view. It should say that the platform adopted by the demoeratic delegates assembled in that wigwam was an unfit structure. In view of the fact that the people have several times sed judgment upon the principle in- volved in the vital plank of that plat- form, and taking into consideration the further fact that the popular opposition to free trade is steadily growing in this country, it is perfectly plain that the democratic platform adopted in that unfit wigwam was as unfit as the wig- wam itself. It is strange that the democrats should insist upon flying into the face of the plain truth. They have said over and over again that the present tariff law would keep us out of the foreign markets. They said this in 1890 and again in 1891, and yet it is a fact, open to the fullest investigation, that during the past yeur our foreign trade has by far exceeded that of previous years. The democratic free trade ucture is bad because it is false, and because the American people know that it is not based upon facts. Never before has the foreign trade of this country equalled that of the past twelve months. This utterly disproves the statement of the democrats that the tariff policy of the republican party paralyzes theindus- tries of this country. On the contrary it gives them life and stimulates every artery of trade in the United States. The democratic tarift plank is an *unfit structure” because it is not based upon the truth, and because every intel- ligent man knows that it represents merely a policy of opposition to the re- publican party. It certainly does not represent the united sentiment of the party that adopted it, as is clearly shown by the hot debate upon the subject in the Chicago convention. But it cannot be denied that the free trade i1dea em- bodied in the democratic platform is perfectly in line with the views of Mr. Cleveland. He approved it before it was adopted, and he has since said that it fully meets his views. The party and its candidate are perfectly in accord on this subject. The democratic tariff plank is a bad structure because it is not in harmony with the unalterable convictions of the masses, The views of «the people upon this subject are influenced by facts. They care nothing about theories. They can easily unierstand the meaning of conditions with which they stund face to face, but theories do not count for much with them. The democratic tariff plank was a bad structure because it was founded upon the sand of theory and not upon the solid rock of practical experience Toe B has been & amount of gold exported from the coun- considerable try recently, though the aggregate volume has as yet not been 8o large as to give cause for apprehension, The outflow has not been nearly as great as the amount that had gone to Europe this time a year ago, when the total exports reached $70,000,000, but it is re- marked that there are some peculiar foatures about the present movement which distinguish it from that, and the existence of which causes conservative men to regard it with some uncasiness and surprise. In view of the fact that the trade statistics show a balance in our favor, the export of any considerable amount of gold must naturally excite surprize, and the only reasonable ex- planation seems to'be that Furope has somehow munaged tobring the United States in its debt. There has been an extraordinary exodus from this country to Europe the present year, and part of the curcent shipments doubtless represent the antici- pated expenditures of the army of American pleasure seekers abroad, but this will not wholly account for a finun- cial movement, which, after having overcome an indebtedness of $200,000,- 000, still leaves this country in Europe’s debt. It would seem ovident that Europeans have been freely purting with American securities, and it is possi- THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: TUESDAY ble that this may c nue for some time. When it is umicrlmnl that $1,000,000,- 000 is probably a.eenscrvative estimate of the volume of Earppean investment in this country, it beegmes apparent that we may have 1o pariwith a considerable amount of our stock. pf gold before the finnneial conditions in Europe are such as to permit a return flow. It is hardly worth while, howaver, to borrow trouble regarding what is.pmere possibility. THE question of' ascommodating -the people who will come to Omaha to at- tend the convention of the peopie’s party is reported ta be troubling the minds of a great many who desire to be on hand at the birth of the new political organization, Thr Beg has no doubt, as it has already stated, that everybody whocomes to this city next week will find enough to eat and drink and a place tosleep. The hotels and regular board- 1ng houses can take care of a great many people; and undoubtedly there will be a large number of private families who will improve the opportunity to make unoecupied rooms profitable. It is sug- gested to the latter that if they will communicate with the committee hav- ing in charge the preparations for tho convention they will have no trouble in disposing of rooms. As we have hereto- fore urged, nobody who desires to par ticipate in the important event of the first convention of the people’s party to nominate a presidentinl ticket should remain away from the fear that he can- not find accommodations. Omaha will take cave 8f everybody who comes here next week. A Leap Year Incides Chicago Tribune.

As a judge and as a citizen General Gresham has done all that was his auty to meet and repel the aggressions of wealth. Upon the bench he strangled Gouldism in & most of- fensive form. At the dedication of the Grant monument he lifted his voice impros- sively ageinst the awful iniquity of baliot- box corruption. Had the republicans made him their candidate four years ago instead of General Harrisor there would have been broader, juster and more popular adminis- tration of the republic. No judicial defender of ballot-box corruptionists would have been promoted for services rendered in shiolding villainy in the elections.

I have taken only one box, but T feol like a new man. I think they are the most pleasant and easy to tako of anything I ever used, being so finely sugar-coated that even a child will take them. I urge upon all who aro In Need of a laxative to try Ayer's Pills.” — Boothbay (Me.), Register. “Between the ages of five and fifteen, I was troubled with a kind of salte rheum, or eruption, chicfly confined to the legs, and es| Iy to the bend ot the knee e the calf. Here, running sores formed which would scab over, but would break immediately on mo ing the leg. My mother tried cvery- thing she could think of, but all wa without avail. Although a child, I read in the papers about the beneficial effects of Ayer’s Pills, and persuaded my mothe er to let me try them, With no great faith in the result, she procured Ayer's Pills and I began to use them, and soon noticed an improvement. Encouraged by this, T kept on till I took two boxes, when the sores disappeared and have never troubled me since.”—H. Chipman, Real Estate Agent, Roanoke, Va. “I suffered for years from stomach and kidney troubles, causing very severs pains in various parts of the body.
