The Third Term,
(Cor. to THE DEMOCRAT. }

| WAsHISGToN, D. c.. July y, 'o5.
The Bannock l. dams have murder
ed the citizens Of JacksOa's Hole,
Idaho, numbering one hundred and
forty souls Secretary Lamont has or
dered out sufficient number Of :
diers to subdue them and will show tie
redskins little mercy.
Marshall Carroll's salary has been
raised to $1,000. He has been allowed
two extra clerks. His son, Mr.. }. {.
Carroll will probably be made chief
clerk at salary Of 81 800.
The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
has lust completed the longest tunnel
in the world through which tie trains
between New York and the South run
under the city of Baltimore. This
shortens the trip one hour. The tun-
mel is ventilated and is lit up with
electricity so abundantly that ore IS
scarcely conscious of going under
ground. The road deserves great cred
; it for this magnificent piece of engin-
eerlng skill.
/ A flying trip to New York and a
friendly talk with Tammany man and
county Democracy man conSlnces
me that somebody is trying very hard
to work up "third term Cleveland"
VI
night, l found that the Washington
, Post had copied a special telegram
, from the correspondent of the Char
lotte Observer to the effect that Wade
e Hampton had let similar "cat out of
. the bag" here. Wade Hampton Is an
! moved that he should haye been the
: medium through which the secret
leaked out and his reputation of the
Il interview, confirms the truth of the
Observers report in the following Ian
= guage. II believe | did say that if the
e different parties took to splitting up
; and half dozen candidates took the
;, field lot of the conservative gold bug
> Democrats would want to run Cleve-
o land for third term and that big
6 per cent. among the Republicans
} would heartily join them" This kind
: of 'sdeniar' speaks for itself. | heard
a great deal of this third term talk in
e New York City. l don't believe Gro
It yer Cleveland insti gated 1t. His gar
u rulous and interested old friends and
>, his shreWd enemies are making the
: most of it. l know his interested old
V friends-I mean fossil democrats who
y now hold sinecures worth thousands OF
e dollars and who will be out of Job as
soon as there is change in the Ad
n ministration, are doing the talking and
Clevelands's shrewd and more silent
q enemies are making the most of it
- Cleveland has said to my knowledge
4 he did not want a denomination and
r that Mrs. Cleveland did not want him
y to have it. Tammany and the county
y Democracy just now talk as if they
u favored the candidacy of Hon. w. G.
- Whitney,
Two things l learned in New York
h with absolute certainty, First: Nc
u man who does not favor ''sound mon
y ey' will receive the vote of New York
le Second: The Empire State will MOI
ar support Cleveland or anyone else for {
hJr6
Or lished by George Washington Will moi
l. be broken, and if VIM. G.. Whitney !:
the nominee OF the party New York
,e will spend great deal of money tc
Il elect him. He is safe hnancier
4 moreover, the ancient race horses O
! the democracy ought to remember tina
they will fare as we'll at Whitnevs
~ hands as they would at Cleveland s
,r Whitney was the cause of Cleveland ;.
n denomination at Chicago l believe
- he is now Cleveland's choice for the
q presidency.
