Presidential FoRECASTzNG

I
There is no man so prominently before
] the public as probable nominee by the
Democratic party for the presidency as is
Mr.. Cleveland. This prominence is due
largely to the warm support and strong
personal allegiance of his friends and the
bitter anrmosity of the opposite party,
| inevitable results of the marked individ
| uality of the man. Mr.. Cleveland is
neither an immaculate saint nor an IN
mltigated sinner, but o man of strong
personality; an honest man, both stub
born and courageous. In his public life
| as president he offended two classes that
had been his supporters and had helped
| him to eminenoe. Close personal friends
| expected rich harvest of favors, and
| former leaders expected to become his
| counseIlors. Both we're disappointed.
| The former found to their astonishment
that previous friendship and intimacy
| paved no way to promotion, and the
| latter that Mr.. Cleveland had his own
views and recognized no man g right of
dictation. In the ranks of those opposed
to him in sullen phalanx stands these,
while on his side are arrayed his disin-
terested friends, who, as much as they
may regret the policy that alienated his
former friends in New York, and that
by disaffection among party leaders lost
him Indiana, recognize in him an amount
e. tt,,
In 1892. That he distrusted, because of
his friendship, the suitability of his
friends for Office was certainly an honest
mistake, and does not seem to be of the
nature of ingratitude, he still believes
that in this he did right. That he
ignored leading state Democrats in
awards of Office was n mistake he saw,
and did what he could TO rectify. And
now, turning away from what is more
the enmities of politics than questions of
fitness, there are a few who care more
for government than for patronage, who
love the principles of the Democratic
party more than place, and these, with
all men of independent thought, will not
admit that Mr.. Cleveland position
among Democrats is not strong enough
to give courage to his adherents and to
appall his opponents. Mr.. Cleveland's
individual preference may be for the life
of a private citizen, but Us things are
tending his denomination two years
from now seems certain, and if Demo-
Gratis lay ASIDE personal luminosity and IN
divldual plque his reelection is fore
gone conclusion. The opposite party see
in him a formidable barrier to their
plans, and while their respect may not
be of unmixed quality, it is sufficiently
marked to prove to world of polit-
ical forecasters that he Is likely to be
central figure in the coming presidential
contest

ABOUT BASEBALL.

The New Park-The Probability Of Games
During Nay.
wehrle will Go battle for Fort Worth
to-day in the box and Duane will take
his punishment behind the bat.
The boys expect to put up good game
to-day against Dallas and VIII win most
probably. There will be another game
on the home grounds with the Hams.
after which both teams-will emigrate to
Dallas for a series of four games there.
Charlin Graham, who represented Fort
Worth IN the schedule committee that
met in Austin, reports that everything
went smoothly there and a change in the
dates will probably be effected so as to
give Fort Worth some games during the
Spring Palace exhibition. A meeting
Will be held to decide the matter either
here or at Dallas next Tuesday,
In case the change is made, a fter the
games at Dallas are played the Fort
Worth team will take the road for two
games with each of the other clubs and
then return here for dozen games or so.
The new baseball park viii be ready
for use when the team return from the
trip. The rolling and hardening process
can be completed in few days now and
the carpenters viii have a couple of
weeks to erect the grand stand, which
will be considerable of an Improvement
on the one in the present park. The
new diamond Will greatly surpass the old
one in position, and the outfeld will be
rolled smooth, so that the fielders can
have fair chance at running catch.
The audience on the outside of the
park will also be beautifully
lessened and the gate receipts probably
increased by the renmoYal. The baseball
team, after tomorrow, bids adieu to the
charge of being an eleemosYnary lnstitu-
ton, and will play ball for the people
who are inside the fence.

NEEDED LEGISLATIoN.

The readiness with which divorces are
obtained, Frequently as in the noted
Flack case in New York, through the
earelessnessI of judges in examining
papers they are to sign, is occasioning
much comment. Afew years since the
subject of more uniformity in divorce
laws throughout the Union was ably
urged in leading periodicals in this
country. sinos, then from time to time
the divorce controversy has occupied tn e
columns of eails journals, and yet the.
scandal of our civilization, divorce, is on
the increase.
Thoughtful spsysOns are inclined to
trace the cause of. this increase
to a,4he sscresT; attendant upon dir.
vorce proceedings. Not fewfex-
press the belief that were no referees
allowed, and if in all cases there must be
q trial by jury and in open court, there
would result a marked decrease. The
civilized world, from whatever reason,
universally admits three interested

ana the public, and the law requires that
the public shall be satisfied that the mar
riags is valid, and that the twain have
been legally united. The public, in the
interest of morals, have an equal right
to know when dissolution of the sacred
tie becomes imperative. aud it is the be-
lief of candid minds that the dread of
full publicity of procedure would
terd to enhance the ssnctity of
marriage in proportion as the sever
ance of the tie became less private.
AS the marriage relation in every III
stance involves more or less forbearance
on the part of the welded, any check on
impatienee of restraint is potential fac
tor in the preservation of high morality.

disinteeration of society. The facility
and secrecy so often attending the secur-
ing OF divorce is cgnse for anxiety; it is
no imaginary danger that threatens. as a

Deaths Doing.

s. A. Corley died at the family resi-
dence on Daggett avenue last Sunday
morning (Msy y at 10 clock. He had
dropsy of the liver and spleen, which
was superinduced by violent hemorrhages
of the bowels that produced his death.
The deceased was q Christian gentle
man, and welcomed death when it came
to relieve him of his suffering.
When he was taken sick he was cam
wasting the state in the capacity of min
eral agent for the Texas Spring Palace,
and many hard and efficient blow has
he struck for that institution; and his
efforts and untIring energy will be missed
in this department of Fort Worth s
pride. Mr.. Corley was in bis forty
eighth year, and leaves a wife and four
Borrowing children to mourn an irrepsr-
able loss. His remains were consigned
to their last resting place in the new
cemetery.

Spring PALACE NOTES.

On all hands are evidences that large
crowds will flock TO the Spring Palace
from the day of its opening, on Satur-
| day, May 10. The event is made a day
of reference throughout the state, and
Fort Worth citizens who have been So
1ourning in distant parts are fastening
home to view the opening of the Spring
Palace. Fakirs and showmen have
gathered from all over the country &,
and booths for the sale of
such wares and commodities as lsrge
parties of visiting people would be likely
TO demand, are making their appearance
all over the city. Already the streets of
the city are showing evidence of gath
ering. The hotels are filling up, and in
the Hobbies can be seen the faces OF nu-
merous strangers evidently bent on sight
seeing and inspection. The streets are
crowded even more than usual, retail
trade Is conscious of a stimulus,
and public places are unusually well at
tended, all portentive of what may be
expected for next week.
The people of the city are alive to the
necessity for home encouragement to an
institution calculated to so greatly bene-
fit the home people, as evidence of which
and as carrying out the idea inaugurated
the following is presented:
The undersigned banks and business houses of
the city of Fort Worth hereby agree to close our
respective places of business on Saturday. May
10, at II o clock, for the purpose of enabling our
officers, firms and employees to attend the open

New York, said at recent convention of
large business men, that the heaviest
burden of the Mckinley tariff tax would
fall upon the poor women of the country
for the sole benfgt of hair dozen manu-

interests of large numbers of manufac-

work together in order to get raw
material into this country cheaply, So
that the mills might be kept running and

THE committee appointed by the New
York assembly in 1888 asserted in its re-
port that the Bell telephone company
held principle absolutely essential to
service, and were in a position to exact
patent that would establish monopoly
for seventeen years from the date of its
issuance. The prospect of an almost in
definite prolongalon of this gigantic
monopoly is leading to odd questioning in
most unexpected. quarters. The SOW
ereignty of the'state has been asserted to
be a ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS not only perver-
sive of good government but almost
heretical, and yet it is'asign of the times
that Northern religious journal says,
referring to thismonopoly:
at is a fundamental prihciple of the sover-
eighty Of the state that tte state has a right to
take private property for public use upon fai r
appraisal of its value. Why should-not the state
apply this principle to inventions, and on
paying the telephone company or anyother cor
poration or individual owning valuable patent
its fair appraised value, make it absolutely free
to the public service? Or why should it not in
the exercise of the same sovereignty, give any
individual the right to use any patent on pay
ing, not whatever the paten tee chooses to
charge. ut whateyera court of competent iuris-
diction decides to be fair price?'
