Frank ami Manly Letter to Mayor
Franeis of St. Louis The Highest
Office, of the People Must Not
I5e Subjected to Insult.
St. Louis, July 7. The followiiig
letter addrensed to the mayor of this
city, who was chainuan of the coin-
mittee of representative citizens of
St. Louis, who verbally invited the
president to visit this city during the
holding of the encampment of the
Grand Army of the Republic, next
September, is printed in the Repub
lican, this morning, and explains itself
without further comment:
Executive Mansion-, )
Washington-, July 4, 1SS7, )
Hon. David R. Francis. M;iv.r and
Chairman:
My Dear Sir: When I recieved
the extremely cordial and gratifying
invitation from the citizens of St.
Louis, tendered by a number of her
representative men, to visit that city
during the national encampment of
the Grand Army of the Republic, I
had been contemplating for some
time an acceptance of an invitation
from that organization to the same
effect, and had considered the pleas
ure w hich it would afford me if it
should be possible to meet not only
members of the grand army, but the
people of St. Louis and other cities
in the west which the occasion would
give me the opportunity to visit.
The exactions of my public duties T
felt to be so uncertain, however, that.
when first confronted by the dele
gation of which you were the head I
expected to do no more at that time
than to promise consideration of the
louble invitation tendered me and to
xpress the pleasure it would give
me to accept the same thereafter if
ossible. Rut the cordiality and
sincerity of your invitation, reinforced
y the heartiness of the people who
surround you, so impressed me that
I could not resist the feeling which
prompted me to assure you on the
spot that I would be with you and
the Grand Army of the Republic at
the time designated if nothing hap
pened in the meantime to absolutely
prevent my leaving Washington.
Immediately upon public announce
ment of this conclusion, expressions.
emanating from certain important
members of the Grand Arniy of the
Republic, and increasing in volume
and virulence, constrained me to
review my acceptance of these invi
tations. The expressions referred
to go to the extent of declaring that
I would be an unwelcome guest at
the time and place of the national
encampment. This statement is
based, as well as I can judge, upon
certain ofiicial acts of mine involving
important public interests, done
under restraints and obligations of
my oath of office, which do not ap
pear to accord with the wishes of
some of the members of the Grand
Army of the Republic. I refuse to
believe that this organization, found
ed upon patriotic ideas, composed
very largely by men entitled to last
ing honor, and consideration, and
I should not be frank it I failed to
I confess, while dic!aiiii:!ig all resent
I ment. that I liKve bu n hurt by uu
I woithy :rttu v,..ii . n attacks upon me
i growing ut ; t'iN ii-tt-T and the
of your citizens. Hoping the en
campment mav be an occasion of
uy countrymen, j much usefulness and that its pro-
-1 .
ceemngs may illustrate the highest
patriotism of American citizenship,
I am touts verT sincerelv,
G rover Cleveland.

Threats of per
sonal violence and haiu in case I
undertake th. trip in question, which
scores of misguided, unbalanced men
uinler the stimulation of excited
feeling have made are not even con
sidered. Rather than abandon my
visit to the west and disappoint your
citizens. I might, if I alone were
concerned, submit to the insult to
which it is quite openly asserted I
would by helplessly subjected if
present at the encampment; but I
should bear with me there the peo
ple's highest office, the dignity of
which I must protect, and I lxlieve
that neither the Grand army of the
Republic, as an organization, nor
anything like a majority of its mem
bers, would ever encourage any
scandalous attack upon it. If. how
ever, among the membership of this
body there are some, as certainly
seems to be the case, determined to
denounce me and my ofiicial acts at
the national encampment. I believe
they should be permitted to do so
unrestrained by my presence as a
guest of their organization, or as a
guest of the hospitable city in which
their meeting is held.
A number of Grand Army Rosts
have signified their intention, I am
informed, to remain away from the
encampment in case I visit the city
at that time. Without considering
the merit of such an excuse. I feel
that I ought not to be the cause of
such non-attendance. The time and
place of the encampment were fixed
lonor before mv invitations were re
ceived. Those desiring to partici-'
pate in the proceedings should be
first regarded, and nothing should
be permitted to interfere with their
intentions. Another consideration
of more importance than all others
remains to be noted. The fact was
referred to by you when you verbally
presented the invitation of the citi
zens of St. Louis that the coming
encampment of the Grand Army of
the Republic would be the first held
in a Southern state. I suppose this
fact was mentioned as a pleasing
indication of the fraternal feeling
fast gaining ground throughout the
entire land and hailed by every patri
otic citizen as an earnest that the
Union has really and in fact been
saved in sentiment and spirit with
all the benefits it vouchsafes to a
united people. I cannot rid myself
of the belief that the least discord
on this propitious occasion might
retard the progress of the sentiment
of common brotherhood which the
Grand Army of the Republic has so
good an opportunity to increase and
foster. I certainly ought not to be
the cause of such discord in any
event or upon any pretext. It seems
to me that you and the citizens of
St. Louis are entitled to this unre
served statement of the conditions
which have constrained me to forego
An Insult to the President.
Ellsworth, Me., July 5 The cele-bi-ation
of the Fourth here was sadly
niarred by a disgraceful partisan row
over President Cleveland. The monu
ment to commemorate the soldier
dead of the town was to be unveiled
and a procession of 5,000 members
of the G. A. R. from here and else
where were in line. They were to be
reviewed by Department Commander
Gately, Hannibal Hamlin and others.
The procession was progressing
along the densely crowded streets,
when a banner bearing President
Cleveland's portrait, which had been
flown to the breeze by some demo
cratic members of the committee on
arrangements, hove in sight. A
sudden h:dt was called. The com
manding officer, in reply to questions.
pointed to the llag whereon the
president's picture was portrayed.
A murmur ran through the crowd.
gradually swelling into loud com
plaints. The men. one and all,
positively refused to march under
the banner. The Ellsworth comrades,
who. acting as escorts, were in the
van, were especially aroused and
cries of "Tear it down" were fre
quently raised.
The mayor left his carriage and,
hurrying to the front, sought the
cause of the trouble. The men told
him that they refused to march under
the likeness of a man who refused
veterans their hard earned pensions
and would have given the flags back
to the rebellious south. As the men
were firm the mayor finally had the
flag taken down, amid cheers, and
the procession moved on.
If the above disgraceful proceed
ings had taken place south of the
Mason and Dixon line, ye gods,
what a cry of treason would have
been raised.
