CLEVELAND WAS RUFFLE

Mr.. Cleveland was indignant Thurs
day evening. Ordinarily his temper is
placidity itself. The unspeakable sat-
isfaction that hovers around his po-tly
presence is unbroken by any bursts of
temper. They would be mbecoming to
the Moses of the downtrodden and hun
cry Democracy. and Mr.. Cleveland
doesn't indulge in them except on occa-
sions.
Thursday, however, furnished an oc-
casion. II was the solicitude of his
friends FOR his personal safety. His
friends felt his greatness and wanted to
protect him. A detective was to accom-
pany him at all times. They feared
that some bloodthirsty william might
lurk in dark recess and waylay him.
They foresaw that some desperate
criminal would use their chieftain's
body as target and translate Mr..
Cleveland to better worlds. They were
very Thoughtful.
But Mr.. Cleveland didn't agree with
them. If there is one thing that he
brides himself OH it is his personal
prowess, particularly over ducks and
other carniverous game that haunts
Buzzards Bay and the wild shores of the
Potomac. Long experience has taught
him courage. He isn't afraid of any
thing, not even cranks, so long as they
are harmless. Bnt he should remember
that others may be more timid than he,
and he shouldn't get provoked at them.
The Mail and Express is the great organ
of morality, and Mr.. Cleveland ought not
to say that it published an untruth re-
garding the detective who was his body
guard nor ought he to say, 81 suppose
that sheet will Nit it into some crazy
fellows head to attempt something like
that. The article was published with a
malicious purpose"
The thought of the pious Col. Shep-
ard being malicious is preposterous
Has Mr.. Cleveland forgotten that Col.
Shepard directs a Sunday school! He
is unlsind to Col. Shepard. Doubtless
his thoughtlessness is caused by the
feeling of dread which has evidently
seizeti him. IL is evident from his words
He had no fear of it before, but such q
publication may inspire some "crazy
fellow" to attack him.
Think of an ex-presiGent and a presi
dent-elect, combined in one person, COW
ering before the glittering weapon o.
some cadaverous crank, who is begginl
for office and who actually believes tina
under Mr.. Cleveland's rigid enforcement
of the civil service rules he will not b,
made an ofliceholder.
Such things are dangerous, and Mr.
Cleveland ought TO know it. He ought
not to be angry at his cautious friends
who want him guarded. II is very un
grateful of him. The office-seekinl
cranks are much more deadly than tn
feathered or finny tribes that have re
Gently yielded TO Mr.. Cleveland

lctors and guards at all times ant
