CLEYELAND'S ADDRESS
POLICY FOR TIE NEW GOVERNMENT
OUTLINED.

The inaugural address is completed
1t will contain about 100 words
The delivery of 1t will take twent,
minutes. Mr. Cleveland's pace il
speaking is always slow He viii
employ more than his customary de
liberation on Inauguration Day ana
will elevate his always strong and far
reaching voice to its utmost range in
order to enable as many people as
possible TO hear his words. He will
speak without reference to the manu-.
script at all, and with only the topics
of the address jotted down in head
lines on a visiting card, which be will
hold in his hand The act of writing
an address of itself stamps it on Mr..
Cleveland's memory ard his delivery
is letter perfect, as all newspaper men
who have studied him know.
The address will be more devoted
to general principles and to patriotic
sentiments than to specific PROPOSE
tions. With such propositions the
president will deal directly in his
communications to congress. The
most profound gratitude to the people
and absolute confidence in them IS ex.
pressed in the address. A clear re-
solve to make the Democratic admin
istration as simple, broad and strong
IN its policy as the purpose of the
American people for honest money,
economical administration and tariff
reform, will probably be uttered with
out reserve. a determination to live
up 10 every promise made to and ac.
cepted by the nation may be expected
in the most explicit terms
A full sympathy with all the allies
by which the Democracy have been
aided will, it is believed, be pro-
claimed. The necessity of bringing
back the government to the plain
principles Of its founders will be en-.
fGc d. A belief that the many evil |
dences of unrest and discomfort are
due to the fact that the people have
been wrongly regarded as made for
the government, instead Of tie gov
eminent for the people, will quite
likely be suggested.
Confidence in the operation of true
Democratic principles to solve all
pressing problems will be evident be-
tween the lines; a reliance on the
people as the source Of government
and party power will be apparent,
and stern reminder that 0rganiza.
tons and machines are good servants
but bad and brutal masters, will be-
heard.
Money, tariff and labor questions
will, there is reason to predict, be az
uded to on the lines Of Mr.. Cleve,
and's former deliverances. The dis. :
appearance of sectional divisions and I
ectional issues in politics will he
.raltfu ly noted. The abolition Of I
II policies Of Interference with cleo. q
ions in states by federal power will '
'e recognized as the decision Of the Y
eople. y
The protection OF the pension list u
rom fraudulent and fictitious de.
lands will most likely be insisted b
pom, to the end that every merltori. o
ns case Of need Or injury shall b. b
,nderly regarded, while every un.
orthy claim should be refused v
lace on 4 roll that ought to be roll f.
honor and of truth alone. .,
1t is probable that an encouraging
ord will be uttered for the compile ~
o. Of the navy, for the policy Of oi
gorous quarantine, for system that ha
III admit moral, industrious imrni- ID
ants and bar ont the unworthy
merican interests will be considered
