No THIRD TERM

Three of the Cabinet. Secretaries Carlisle.
Lamont and Morton, are on record as
saying that President Cleveland will not
accept denomination, and that at the
proper time he will personally state his
reasons for not desiring bis name con-
pected with a third term movement. 1t
Is also reported that Mrs. Cleveland is very
much. opposed to another four years in
the White House, and that if the President
yields to the pressure and allows his name
to go before the next convention it will
be without her consent. But there are
thousands of influential Democrats through
out the country who believe the President
wiIaccepta a denomination and who hoareusing
their influence TO bring about that result.
president Cleveland is opposed to chas-
ing the third term phantom he should say
so without delay. His every act is now
construed as that of an executive with an
exaggerated inclination to glue the seat
OF his trousers to the White House throne.
and both the press and the public are
speculating on the probable depth of the
avalanche of votes that would bury the
Democrat and n friend to party success, he
should Immediately put an end to this
adverse discussion, provided, of course.
he is not candidate, because it prevents
the possible uniting of the Democratic
factions, and creates an unfavorable Inn
preston concerning the Democratic future.
In time the American public will have

mense debt and the disasters of an extended
business depression have discredited both
President Cleveland and his administration
of affairs with the masses, and thee is no
more hope of his election than there is

WORTHY THE HIGHEST REWARD.
The OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES of Union Missions.
which assemblies in this city on Wednesday
next, represents a work that should be en-
couraged. No field presents greater oppor-
tunities for doing good than the sluns and
dives of the lowly, and Christian workers
whodevote their lives to uplifting tho Sc who
cannot help themselves are deserving better
rewa rds than the world is capable of giving
then. People are neither ignorant nor
vicious from choice, although sometimes
thesr conduct makes it seem SO. Their
meltal condition renders it impossible
for them to understand the benefits to be
derived from a different and better life.
and it is through the efforts Of others that
th-ymust be afforded relief.
Both the heSalvationArmy andthe UnionMis-
sioo workers are reaching this element of So
ciesy-a field that has heretofore been
practically neglected by organized effort
and they are sowing the seed that will
yieEa wonderfully rich harvest.
Teignorant and vicious must be uplifted
before the world becomes a paradise, and
anyslassof workers who nbring aboutthis
reform will work untold benefit to mankind.
