OPINIONS AND POINTERS.

E8 The American people are not
worrying so much about the possibility
of a third term for Cleveland as they
are about the fact that there is still a
good deal of his second term to be en-
dured.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat-
70 1t is wrong to talk about wages
being increased. There is simply a
tendency to restore them to what they
were before the democratic victory OF
1892. The restoration will not be COM
pIeted until the republican party Ii
again in full possession of power

- Grover Cleveland does not appeaa
as being assessed in New York for per-
sonal property this year. although he
so appeared in 1894. The tax offics
explains the matter by this announce
ment: ''Sworn off-non-resident." II
the signs of the times are not mislead-
ing, we believe that in 1896 Mr.. Cleve-
land will also swear off his white
house habit, and will figure in Wash,
