THE SITUATION SIZED UP.
A Democratic Estimate of Republican
Prospects.

The New York Sun is not inclined to
take a rosy view of Cleveland's pros
poets. 1t says Of the Republican nomi-
nees:
1T is a ticket shrewdly and skillfully
selected, and when its points of political
excellence are perceived, the Democrats
will find themselves obliged TO make a
more vigorous and active fight than they
now seem inclined To do. General Har-
rison's nomination, produced by two of
the adroitest of Republican managers,
New and Dudley, against obstacles in
the convention which seemed insur-
mountable, depends for success in No

The RepubIIcln symbol.

1t is 10 the credit OF the republican
party that it's distinctive symbol IN this
campaign is what teaches patriotism. 1t
has adopted the stars and stripes as an
offset to the red bandana. 1t was nat
ural that the republican party seeking a
symbol should turn to the old flag. But
for this party that flag would now be
flying over only half the union; it is the
fac under which hundreds Of republi-
cans died, 1t is the flag their children
arc taught TO love The adoption OF the
flag as the party ensign is fitting and the
best thing possible.

Edgar Saltus is the most popular of the
