Senator BaySrd TO Albany the soverrtr
had plsoJi the Sscretsryship Of State .,

"None Whatever. It was simply the
visit Of one gentleman TO another ard
they were both glad to see each other,

Philadelphia Record. Ind.
An Albany dispatch informs the public
that Mr.. Thomas r. Bayard has been in
that town paying q short visit to Mr..
Cleveland, on Mr.. Cleveland's invitation.
This is pleasant and assuring news.
We do not know whether Mr.. Cleveland
offered Mr.. Bayard place in his cabinet
or not. II he did It is all right, and il
he didn't 1t Is all right. one thing Is
certain, and that Is that while Mr.. Bayard
stayed with him Mr.. Cleveland was In
excellent company. No mischief was
hstohed at that conference to the detri-
ment Of the country.
LOGICAL AND NATURAL AFFAIR.
HditOrial in Philadelphia Times.
The senaationslists In Democratic poll.
tics are greatly perturbed over the dis
oovery that Senator Bayard visited Presi-
dent elect Cleveland on Saturday las,
and spent part Of day and night in the
company OF the new President. Because
Mr.. Bsyard did not hang on outside Of
the cars to be seen by the multitude, and
because he did not herald his visit In
advanos TO the newspapers, It is assumed
that his visit TO Mr.. Cleveland was
shrouded In secrecy, and that II Is fate.
full Of great political events.
Sensible men will say that the meeting
Of Mr.. Cleveland and Mr.. BAyard was
logical and natural. II Mr.. Cleveland
sent for Mr.. Bayard, he exhibited good
common sense in doing It II Mr.. BAysrd
went without special invitation, he ex-
hibited good common sense in doing that,
and however Mr.. Cleveland and Mr..
BAyard got together, they exhibited good
common sense In frankly, freely and fully
discussing the political situation and try
ing to devise the best way TO start new
And II In the course of
the conference Mr.. Cleveland invited Mr..
Bayarl to his seat In the cabinet, the
general Judgment would be that the new
President made = first class start In
tno new government
II the new President wants Senator
Bayard in his cabinet and the senator ia
willing to accept, the country would
gratefully approve the tribute to little
Delaware's big senator; aud II there are
reasons why Mr.. BAyard can't 20 iuto the
