self to be he will not arouse enthusi.
asm for his candidacy among the
friends of those Candidates for speak
er who consider themselves entitled
to his cOuntenauce. If his disinter-
estedness is merely apparent and he
is really backing Mills, he will only
arouse antsgonism on the part of
those who are combining against
Mills and their influence will be felt
in the national convention against
him. II Mills Is defeated tor
speaker because Cleveland withheld
his active support and personal en-
dorsement of his candidacy it will
hurt Cleveland with the en- tire group
of freetrsde statesmen whose apostle
and leader Mills is. The Texan has
done noble work for the ex-president
and he had perfect right to expect
return Of the favor. Mr.. Cleveland
is in a very different position now
from that which he occupied in his
previous candidacy. Then Mr.. Cleve.

Now he has the past to reward

fore. If this speskership contest was
merely personal affair it would not
be invested with such importance, but
t is not. Mills is accepted as Cleve-
lands lieutenant, and as such the
friends of Mr.. Mills will not take
kindly to the cold-blooded policy of
his chief, no matter how mag
unanimously Mills himself may
overlook it. The success Of Mills,
unaided by Cleveland's open or avow-
ed sympathy and assistance, wilt
leave less bitterness In the minds Of
Mills defeated rivals against Cleve-
land and that is the only redeeming
feature about the situation 80 far as
the ex-presldenti is concerned. The sit.
uation is certainly peculiar one, and
never before have the questions of
speakership and presidential candi-
date been so intricatsly interviewer.
There is nothing in any possible out
come of the case that can injure the
republican party in congress or out of
1t and as q consequence the republi-
can spectators are at full liberty to
enjoy all of the fun there is in the sit
uation. The fun will not be over
when the speakership question is de-
cided. The democracy have al ire
sponsible majority In congress and
may be reasonably expected to put
their foot in it whenever they open
their mouths. The epublicaus can
be depended upon to draw the atten-
ii on of the country to thig gymnastic
feat every time IL occurs.
