CLEVELAND’S LETTER.

Chairman Carter Dissects It in an Inter-
:ebting and Vigorous “'ay.

Mr. Cleveland’s letter of acceptance
is conceded to be the weakest document
that he has given the public. It was
generally criticised as a. pitiful attempt
to straddle all the doubtful issues of the
campaign and make enemies of nobody,
Here is What Chairman Carter of the
Republican committee said of it:

It is rather difficult to figure out from
Mr. Cleveland’s letter of acceptance pre-
cisely what he believes about anything.
He starts out by saying that he is more

than ever Confirmed in the belief that”

all the things which he has heretofore
belieVed are true and excellent. I sup-
poSe that nobody will doubt Mr. Cleve-
land’s regard for‘his opinions. Still in
the present situation, the Republican
party having declared plainly and ex-
plicitly in a tariff so devised as to protect
American industries while raising the
revenues necessary to support the gov-
ernment, and the Democratic party
having explicitly declared that such an
arrangement of the tariff is unconstitu-
tional, it would have been interesting to
know whether Mr. Cleveland agreed
with the Republican or Democratic the-
cry.

It will be remembered that in 1884 Mr.
Cleveland ran for the presidency and
was elected on a platform which stated
that the Democratic party simply dc-
sired to reform the tariff, and that in re-
forming it they did not intend to disturb
existing industries. They said that they
were aware of the fact that many in-
dustries depended on the protective tariff,
.and that all changes of existing law
must take note of the interests of the
labor and capital invested. This was
one of those characteristic Democratic
dodging planks which was intended to
mean, and 'did mean, anything to any-
body. Mr. Randall stumped New York
saying that it meant protection; ,Mr.
Hurd stumped Ohio saying that it meant
free trade; Mr. Mills stumped Texas say-
ing that it meant an income tax; Mr.
Wat-terson stumped Kentucky saying
that it was exactly in line with the views
of the star eyed goddess of reform.

But the Democratic convention of

1892, when this identical plank was pre-
sented to it by its platform committee,
overwhelmingly threw it out, and by a
vote- of 546 to 342 the convention de.
clared itself for free trade pure and sim-
ple. To have regard for any other pur-
pose, it said, in devising atarifi, than
the one purpose of raising revenue, was
unconstitutional. In deaéing with this
plank Mr. Cleveland has twisted in evi:
dent distress. He means what the plank
means, but does not dare to say so. In-
stead he says he believes what he always
believed, and that everybody knows what
he has always believed. and that that
ought to be enough. Finally he says
the people cannot be frightened by the
specter of impossible free trade, which
means, if it means anything, that the
people must have confidence in him and
his party, because they do not really
mean what they say, and have not the
courage of their convictions.

This is certainly a curious ground on
which to appeal to intelligent. people for
their suffrages. The Democratic con-
vention declared at Chicago in favor of
the repeal of the 10 per cent. tax on
state bank issues. This has excited the
profound alarm of every believer in a
stable currency he country over. Those
of our people who lived before the war
will remember the condition of congress
and' affairs when everybody was per-
irzitted to start a bank and print slips of
piper call ed money to the extent of his
inclir aticn. Millions 011 millions of more
or less worthless money floated around
the country, nobody know' Irng precisely
what the bills he had 111 his pocket would
be received for at the bank, nor indeed
whether they were genuine or counter-
felt.

A REAL SURPRISE

WHAT A FORMER CAPTAIN OF P0

An Astonishing Faot That Ought

Action ls Taken.

Alexander Bell rs a retired captain of

the Portland, Me., police force.

He has a strange and wonderful story
to tell

Now Mr. Bell is an old Grand Army
man, indeed, was one of the founders
of the famous Bosworth Post, G. A. R.,
and' is widely known and much respect-
ed throughout the State of Maine. .

We will let him tell his remarkable
story in his own way. -

“I have had two strokes of paralysis,
the first about four y ears ago, the sec-
ond in January, 1891. My left side was
completely paralyzed face drawn, arm
and leg immovable.

“On account of my advanced age of
75 years, and this being a second at-
tack, my phy sician pronounced my case
he eless.

BI was finally induced to try Dr.
Greene’s Nervur‘a blood and nerve
remedy and soon began to 1mm 01 e,
the muscles of the face straightened,
then my arm began to gair, and I be-
gan to walk after havi. 1;: and three
bottles of this remedx.

“My arm I can now place to my head
and have fair use of it, and with a cane
have walked as far as two 111: .es and a

half.

MR. ALEXANDER BELL.

“From being a helpless paralytic,
having to be dressed and cared for by
others, I now care for myself, can walk
about the city and enjoy fair health.

“ I would state that after beginning
the use of Dr. Greene’s Nervura blood
and nerve remedy I used no other med-
icine.

“The result surprised and astonished
all my friends, and they have urged me
to make this statement as a matter "of
justice and to encourage others who
mav be similarly afilicted.

“I will also state that I was a soldier.
in the late war and served fifteen years
on the police force of Portland. Alex-
firder Bell, 144 Lincoln st., Portland,

e. ,

This is indeed a most remarkable
cure by a wonderful medicine—a med-
icine which's rs b,eyond all doubt, the
greatest nerve remedy and health re-
storer ever discovered. The Portland
doctors are astounded at its effects in
diseases which have baifled their skill.
Mr. Bell’s restoration should make
every body suffering from paralysis or
any nervous disease use Dr. Greene’s
Nervura blood and nerve remedy with-
out delay.

But do not wait until you are actual-
ly paralyzed before using this great
remedy. It will always prevent paraly-
sis, nervous debility and nervous pros-
tration if taken when the first symp-
toms appear.

Take it if you have a weak and tired
feeling with wear‘iness Of the limbs,
numbness, trembling, palpitation of the
heart, prickling sensation in the fing-
ers or toes, headaches, dull feeling head,
confused mind nervousness, sleepless
ness, loss of memory. It will overcome
indigestion and dy spepsia, regulate the
bowels and cure liver and kidney com-
plaints. It 1s the best blood enricber
and invigorator in the world, and
should therefore be used by all

It is purely vegetable and perfectly.
harmless, and shBOuId you be a sufi'erer
from disease you will use it if you are
wise. W e would add that. although
sold by druggists, it is in no sense a
patent medicine, being the prescrip-
tion and discoverv of Dr. Greene. of 35
W. 14th Street, New York, who is the
most eminent specialist in the country
in the treatment Of nervous and chron-
ic diseases. Sufferers have the privi-
lege also Of consulting the famous doc-
tor free of charge personally or by let-
ter.

The Detective Still C'aims He Got No
Money.

 

PROVIDENCE. R. l., Oct. 14.—T'ne latest
statement from Mclienry, published in a
morning paper, renewed the strong prev-
alent impresaion in Fall River that the
police authorities of that city do not dare
to “throw down” the detective. The
fact that different police officials in Fall
River on the morning that the “big
fake” was published were anxious to see
reporters, and waylaid all newspaper men
they ran across, to warn them not to
come down too strong on McH-enry, is
Considered very significant in the right
of subsequent events.

The statement of Mcli-znry. in the
interview with 3 Providence ’i‘e1-.-r;1-am‘ re-
porter, that he surmised that ’l‘rlcirey
might be playing a part, and that he
wanted evidence for the defence, is gen-
erally regarded as very thin in Fall
River this morning. It is looked upon as
a flimsy attempt on the part of the lie-
tective to reingratiate himself an the
public confidence, and it is received wrth
derision in many quartrr‘s.

“It is quiteevldent, ” said a we ‘l 1:1: own

'citizen, “that the marshal and the p: 152-
cution still cling to Tt‘IcHenry’ s Prov 1'
deuce lawyer story, and that. tney Will do
all in their power to restore confidence
in McHenry, to the end that he may yet
be used as a witness. ” “If they ever do
put him on the stand, ” said another gen-
tleman, “it will prejudgce their case.
The public will not believe him.”

“I think, ”said a co- laborer of Mr Jen-
nings, “that this new statement 01’ Mc-
Henry’s is as big, if not a big ger, outrage
on the defence than the original docu-
ment was.” 1! the detective did not
have the closest connection with the
case, still he has not been hanging
around headquarters in Fall szer for
nothing. He has been conversant with
every move that was made and undoubt-
edly has made movements on his own
score and interviewed all the parties.”

Mr. McHenry was about this morning
in Providence, but the writer learned
later that he had gone to bed with
sciatica and sent for a doctor. He
stated earlier in the morning to a press
representative that he still adhered to his
story that he received no money for the
“big yarn.” But added that money was
paid, but it was not in his possession

A FOOLISH HAR‘ANGUE.

Albion W. Tour-gee Delivers) a Bitter Tl-
rade Against Columbus.
DETROIT, Mich., Oct. l4.— “Columbus
was a liar,” said Albion W. Tourgee in a
lecture before 3000 people assembled in

 

the auditorium to celebrate the discovery ,. »

of America. Nor was this the meat sur-

prising sentence iu a bitter invective‘

Tourgee delivered against the navigator.
Every act 01' his life was one of egotism,

he said, and intended to satisfy his greed' ‘ " ' ‘ "3"”. ”if; ‘3‘ .'
of gain and fame. Everything he sailed? ~‘ _ ‘ 3' ‘ .. ..
on was wrong, and he discovered .Ameri- 1 " ' i" ., ' ”

selfishness, and he stole thécredit of first .»

ca because he was lost and could not do
otherwise. His every act was one of

seeing land from his faithful sailor, who
was on the watch.

He kept two logs in order to deceive

his crew. He was lavishino,I promises he
never expected to keep. His prayers al-

ways concerned himself. His parents

were thriltless, and are known to his-
tory only through the evidences of in-
debtedness they left. He was probably a
Mediterranean pirate in his early days,
and not a single act of his life up to the
time he was 59 years Old was worthy of
recording.” These are only samples of
Mr. Tourgee’ s conclusions regarding
Columbus. The people who heard him
were nonplussed. This lecture and an
Italian parade constituted the day’ s cele-
bration.

 

A NOtable VisitOr.

Our venerated townsman, Rev. S. B.
S. Bissell, was gladdened on Wednes-
day by a call from his college mate Of
some sixty years since, Dr. Samuel
Miles Hopkins of Auburn, New York, a
son of Congressman Samuel M. Hop-
kins, and a grandson of Moses and
Sarah Rogers, the former an East ave-
nue youth of a century and a quarter

ago, and the latter a daughter of Esther
Isaaes who, brought up in the sunny
meadow now the site Of the Wood,
Baxter, Comstoek and Hubbell resi-
dences near the Green, was the third
child of Ralph Isaacs, and like the Rev.
Mr. Bissell herself also a descendant of
Humphrey Hyde of Fairfield, a settler,
according to acknowledged authority,
of a family “believed to have been, and
there seems to be no question about it,
of the best blood of England.”

Miss Isaacs marrying, bat the age of
eighteen, Benj. Woolsey, Jr., a gentle-
man who enjoyed at his Long Island
country "seat of a thousand acres, the
leisure be much relished, was the hon-
ored mother of Mary, the wife of the
elder Dr. Timothy Dwight, President
of Yale College, and of Sarah the
grandmother Of the distinguished pro-
fessor who accompanied by his brother,
Col. Woolsey R. Hopkins, drove ves-
terday from Stamford to Norwalk, as

‘ well as the great- grandmother of the

exceptionally capable head to- day of
Yale University, and who, dying while
yet a bride, left a husband whose son
b a second wife’ was the father of

ale’ s tenth president, Theodore
Dwight Woolsey, S. T. D. LL.D

Before returning to Stamford D.r
Hopkins was escorted to the ancestors’
burial plot 1n the East Norwalk ceme-
tery, where it is to be greatly regretted
so much of history is obliterated be-
yond recovery. The tombstone was there
shown of the grandson of the bosom
friend Of Gov. Winthrop, and a con-
temporary of Major John Mason who
was acting Governor during Gov. Win-
throp’s absence in Europe: and whose
brilliant Indian campaign forms such
an important page in early New Eng-
land annals; and the kindred of whose
daughter Priscilla lie all over the East
Norwalk ground. The Dr., the dust of
whose affinity is thus urned in our own
soil and that of Norwich, and New Lon-
don. and Waterbury, and one branch
of whose family has in its possession a
pedigree of the Woolseys from the“ Car-

’s day down,makes buts briefta 5:5

in Connecticut, but it re earnestly hi)

‘ in Norwalk that his visit to the place

may some day be repeated.
