The independents are IN an uncertain
state OF mind. They rejoice and vet they
are troubled. They claim to have won a
victory, but another party controls the
fruits of the so-called victory. They al
lied themselves with the democracy in the
late campaign, but are now protesting
against being counted out of the republic
can organization. They rejoice with the
Cleveland men but want to run with and
be reckoned as nti-Cleveland men. The
most serious question they have to grapple
with just now, is the finding out whether
they belong to themselves or will have to
figure hereafter as the tail of the demo-
cratic dog. In regard to this. however,
they viii not be long in doubt after Cleve-
land is Installed in the Presidential chair.
