The arrangements for opening the
Worlds air in the presence Of a
small and very select congregation
have been set aside. On May 1,
standing on a platform outside the
Administrative building and in the
presence of at least ono hundred
thousand people, President Cleveland
will touch the button and Chicago
will do all the rest and ask visitors TO
foot the bills.

Again the Washington correspond
euis are crediting the President With
a desire to form a new party. Ifthis
Is true Mr.. Cleveland shows poor
judgment in laying the foundation.
He Is getting too much old-fashioned
moss-back Democracy into the Ad-
ministration to give any hope Of q
new party. 1t will surprise Nj. Cleve-
land some day, perhaps, when he dis
covers that it Is the same old Demo
cratic party that has aot changed
