Mr.. Cleyeland,s Influenoe.

Mr. Cleveland is soon to DO IN a posi-.
ton that should give him influence
with his party. and yet in the senate
the best he can do is to muster eleven
members of his party who agree with
him that the Sherman silver act should
be repealed at once.
On this question Mr.. Cleveland is
right, and it Is a pity that SO many
Democratic senators are wrong beyond
the fear OF punishment and the hope OF
reward, Perhaps it will be different
when Mr.. Cleveland begins to ladle out
the pap, merchantable commodity
supposed to have fetching qualities.
