New York .Sag, and The waywardness OF
New York city politics, are phcnomena
that for small results In the case Of the Ssn,
though often important ones In the other

indicators but 40 warnings. 1.-THE history
OF presidential candidalmes, and Of presi-
dental nominating conyeaiions form a
basis for estimating the Tesnit Of the

l.s only object the federal Offices and iha;
the masses OF the democracy demand

The democratic party has one tried man
In whom the public have confidence; one
who has had four yrarA of valuable exper-

knows better than he then knew the public |
men In whom to con6de for advice. The
Boston H9aid,ln discussing ,he quaiIfica-

tact. There may be sofne truth In this |
statement. Tact is not a material quail

courage OF lis convictions nor hls willing

To those who are seeking the payment
OF boun,ies BY the government; to those
who propose to pension erybody, their
wives and their Children; TO those Who de
sire the affairs of government administered
only on a policy OF exiraVagant exPendl-
ture and consequently excessive taxation.
on system nj partial reciprocity such as Is
represented by MeKin:eyism; TO those
and to all such he is dlametrically opposed.
Besides all this, the man of whom We
speak Is committed 10 a tariff policy of re-
dueed taxation. one that eommends Itself
TO the vast body of the consumers and
producers of commodities throughout the
land. There Is no safety In adopting any
other party Issue and no safety In select
ing any other name than the one here ad-
verted to 10 head the ticket Ons and
only one man Is called for by the great
body oil the people, by the great majority
as we believe, who are hoping and longing
for a change Of administration, and that
man is Grover Cleveland. - Milwaukee
