Broadway Lounger' in New York Tribune
At the Republican headquarters it is seriously
feared that Cleveland may be taken off the tick
ct and somebody else substituted. Nothing has
ever been seen in presidential campaign like
the break down in his brief four weeks of run
ming. As gentleman there remarked, there
Was but single day when Blaine seemed weak,
ard that was the day after he was nominated
Ever since that time the campaign has been
coming forward like ship from distance until
her bulwarks loom up prodigiously, but Cleye-
land, who was announced as the pink of moral
force and confidence, has already retreated into
the north woods with his boon carousers and hid
himself until such time as the clergy determine
whether his name can be mentioned in the pres
ence of ladies. The Democrats feel that they
have again been entrapped into nominating a
man with a short record the shortness of
which is long enough before he will get another
one, as the man said about his coat The
snort record candidate always resembles
one OF the Tichborne claimants AS he
stands in the public sight and the evidence be-
gins to be applied to him the superb network of
his case falls off like false cobweb from 4
gooseoerry bush as the sun in the morning
9oIlhcs H. lG was proposed IN 1868 to withdraw
Mr. Seymour and his friend Blair because thew
were Inanifestly beaten in the summer months
There seems Nemesis in the fact that Cleve-
land IS tunbling to wreck under the very light
OF the moral superiority he invoked. But any

Democratic national committee will take the re-
sponslolllty OF making another nomination or
whether the convention will be recalled OF
course Bayard has hopes again. because Bayard
is the perfection of moral glory. No doubt by
this time Bayard has privately informed his
TRENDS that he cannot touch man of Cleve-
lands flavor Bayard is highly didactic
democrat and cannot see a shortcoming
anywhere an but he rebukes it In his

lar friend This judge having been widower
was minded to be very attentive to lady
When vacancy on the bench ,ensued everybody
expected that Bayard would demand his friend
to be put at the head. He passed him over
creating rupture, with an excitement as big as
Delaware can hold and he asked that an old
wing OF a vlrtuous family life should receive
tne eleYaton Bayards enemies thought this
rupture would lose him one of the counties in
the State and break him down, but it strength
ened him. Blessed are the pure in heart
When they withdraw Cleveland, Thurman
may have another chance, or Hoadly. Hoadly
IS something of man because he was a Repub-
llcan until 1872 and had all the benefits Of good
associations. There is no telling however,
now soon man is corrupted when he gets over
into that party which consists Of nothing what
ever except an office-seeking band with a few
street contractors thrown in. The Democrats
party for years in this country has been nothing
but party of expectants for Office Conse-
quently IN the Democratic party there is no by
