tendously remarked Grover Cleveland Is the cruei
and heartess stepiather OF the Democratic pa''F'
From the standpoint of the ollce-seclr there was
more than mOdcum Of truth In this opser'"Vo"'
and perhaps some people who are not seeAlne
.hce, either for themselves or Others would 10 III
cllned to agree with him. Indeed. there Is rather
general suspicion abroad among men Of all parties
In Washington that Mr.. Cleveland regards the leau'
Of the party which elected him TO the Frequency

children. and that those who clamor most louolS

However wise or otherwise it may appear TO
an impartial and dsnerested Observer
there is little TO doubt that Mr.. ClevcAhd
Is inclined to resent the wellmeant and unseihsh
efforts Of leaders Of his party to assist him IL the per

triumph OF his party Mr.. Cleveland falls to per-

him to name the man.
Take Virginia for example where at least two Demo
Gratis want to enter the Cabinet and third wants
place OF almost equal dignity. They are by no means
the only ones but It IS yet early In the campaign be-
fore March the Virginia forests will be full Of can
