Commenting on the report from New
York last night that Judge Parker
has been selected to present the res
olutions at the Denver convention
uion ex-President Cleveland's
death. Colonel Henry Watterson
ald: "Any attempt to drag the
dead body of Grover Cleveland from
Its newly made grave Into the tu
mult of national convention will de
ceive no one. An Invasion of tbe
grief of the noble lady who weeps
amid tbe silence and solitude of
granite bills, a blow at party con
cord, It Is the act of a shameless
hypocrite. Nor wss ever a profes
sional ghoul inspired by a more
mercenary spirit; because tbe sole
aim and end of the Murphy-Con-ners
crowd, aided by Judge Parker,
is the perpetuation of tbe ascend
ancy of Belmont-Ryan, to which
democracy owes Its Ignominious and
well deserved defeat. It was Bel-mont-Ryan
money that financed
nomination In 1904. It was Belmont-Ryan
money that nominated
him and It was Belmont-Ryan that
made an anti-trust movement under
such a brand absurd and lmMissl-
ble. It seemed fitting that having
made sacrifices for predatory
wealth. Judge Parker should have
lili recompense in bis rich law
practice In the city of New York.
He has had It, with It enrich
ment, aud he should rest well con
tent. That he ahould emerge fiom
this highly paid obscurity to make
trouble through sheer manevolence
were pitiable Indeed, but that he
should appear backed by the money
of trust magnates and traction
thieves appealing to Jefferson and
Tllden, with the dead body of Gro
ver Cleveland stretched upon the
dissecting table is disgraceful. It
is not only disgraceful, but Its mo
tive Is grotesquely and transparently
obvious. The wing of tbe demo
cratic party In the slate of New York
to which Judge Parker belongs and
the group with which he la now act
ing -.ongs waa the David Bennett
Hill wing. They were Inveterate,
the most Implacable enemies of Gro
ver Cleveland. Tbey bated him and
be hated them. Although amid the
gloom of defeat, a band of truce was
reached; there was never retl am
nesty or oblivion on eltber side, so
that tbe scheme to recall the ahade
of Cleveland and to set this up as a
death bead In comedy of a mock fu
neral would be too dastardly and
too gastly for belief. If It were not
tbe last desperate play of the clique
lot discredited politicians seeking
rule or ruin at any cost.
Standing about the open grave
of Mr. Cleveland, those of us wbo
knew him but did not alwaya ap
prove of him nor agree with him
were not only willing to let bygones
be bygones, but that good alone
should live after him. He is dead.
He sleeps with those who went be
fore from Jefferson to Tllden, and
history ran be trusted to do him no
Injustice.
"Resurrected at Princeton and
proclaimed at Denver, his name
spells firebrand, and firebrand Is
the sole initiative and purpose of
the body snatcbers who propose to
use it to conjure a dlssentlon whilst
they iry to corrupt delegates.
In Mr. Bryan and the reunited
party democrats saw a hope of vic
tory. On none other was there tbe
smallest hope of union. That they
reasoned truly has been shown by
the fact tbat with the Ryan-Belmont
barrel' on tap and Its agents flying
about in every dlrecion, state after
state refusing to be tampered with
or tainted has declared for the Ne
braskan. Seeing this. Judge Parker
is put forward to deliver the usual
final stroke of bravo, and under the
pretense of honoring the memory
pf Cleveland to plunge bis blade,
reeking with poison, artfully pre
pared, Into the heart of democracy.
Tbat be ahould lend himself to such
vlllany will engulf him in the scorn
or honorable men and the detesta
tion of thoughtful democrats."
Colonel Watterson goes on to de
precate the acts which tend to re
vitalize old quarrels which have di
vided the party in the past and de
clares they should be thrown out as
insane.
"Coming from Connors and Mur
phy, from Belmont and Ryan, Par
ker and Sheehan, It will be thrown
out as Infamous. They may de
feat us, but they cannot debauch
us."

One of the problems of the poor man in developing a
commercial orchard is making a living while his orchard
is maturing. A 5 or 10 acre tract in the
Meree Tract
to be sold
Tuesday and Wednesday
July 14 and 15
will solve this problem
It is near enough Medford so one can live on his land and have a. job in town; or he
can live in town and whenever he has a few spare hours he can put this spare time in look
ing after his little orchard. II it was five miles away this could not be done. The old
gentlemen who wants more than a town lot to work on can apply the same rule; live on
the land, or in town as his circumstances, tastes and desires may dictate. The professional
or business man should have one of these tracts to satisfy his desires for a reasonable por
tion ot rural life. When this tract is sold the next tract opened will likely sell at least f 100
per acre higher. Opportunities passed, often never return.
Prices and Terms in reach of all. $100 to $150
per acre. 1-3 cash; balance in 1, 2 and 3 years at 6
per cent interest.
