Show TRU T H 2 it is only necessary to take a short ex- cursion back into Democratic politics. In 1888 when Cleveland was running for the Presidency against Harrison, Hill was running for governor of New York. Hill carried the state by a good majority, but Cleveland lost it and with it the presidency. There has never been an hour from that time to the present when Cleveland and his friends did not believe that Hill "knifed. him sold him out. Again in 1892 when the the whole country was clamoring for Clevelands renomination, Hill who had complete control of the Democratic machine in new York held the convention to select national delegates in February, an unheard of time in the year, and secured a solid delegation against Cleveland. The fact that Cleveland won in the national convention in spite of this did not make the situation any pleasanter fdr Hill. day hew much of exists. that bitterness still clouds and fog envelop the mountain and partially obscure the vision, then , the snow whale has all the ance of a white monster cleaving appeal the waters Ogden, June 13.
