Third Term Talk.

Mr.. CLEvELANDs declaration in favor OF
sound and safe currency Of kind not
specified, and his noble determination to
continue to protect American institutions
against the schemes of insidiousness in gen.
eral, have been understood, in many quar-
ters, as q bid for his nomination by some
body for third term as President.
1t is significant Of the current estimate Of
Mr.. CLEvELAND's disinterested patriotism
that such should be the Interpretation put
upon his letter to the Chicago bankers.
We do not share the apprehensions here
expressed by our esteemed contemporary,
the Post Erpress Of Rochester,
SHOULD Mr.. CLEVELAND enter the field in 1890.
representing the money power in England nnd in the
United States, It Is obvious tnat the real issue would
be Imperialism"
Now, the Democracy will never again
nominate Mr. CLEVELAND for President. 1t
has experienced genteel sufficiency Of his
leadership. Such energy as is left in the
manRled remnants Of the organization will
be expended next year in the search for a
statesman who is no better than the party
Of JEFFERSON, JACKSON, and TILDEN but is,
ut the same time, not an ass.
The Republicans certainly will not nomi-
nate Mr.. CLEVELAND. They have good men
enough Of their own, not one Of whom is
larger than the Republican party.
For the Populist nomination in 1895 Mr..
CLEVELAND might have some show as the
promoter and supporter Of the income tax.
II he enters the field, not on his income tax
record, but as the representative of 1.-THE
money power in England and in the United
States," whatever that may mean, his name
would be hissed out Of the Convention.
The Cuckoos remain; and in that small
but select circle is Mr.. CLRvELAND's only
hope of continued conservation. 1t will be
within the power of the Cuckoos to nomi-
nate Mr.. CLEVELAND for President in 1896,
even il there should be not more than ten
or a dozen Of them left in the aviary.
But with GROVER CLEVELAND a candidate
for third term on any ticket and on any
platform, Democratic, Republican, Populist,
Prohibitionist, or Cuckoo, there would not
be the slightest danger to our institutions.
The real issue would be, not Imperialism,
but damphoolism.

Spain's Cuba in the East.

In q recent article on the Cuban insurrec-
ton, the London Spectator suggested a con-
tingency in which the patriots would in
evitably be successful namely, II an urgent
need of troops should simultaneously arise
in the Philippine Islands at the opposite side
of the globe. For Spain's supply Of trained
soldiers is limited, and MARTINEZ DE CAM
POS, the one General competent to avert
three places at once.
Events that have since taken place have
brought the contingency pointed out by the
Spectator we'll within the range Of possi-
blity. 1t is already evident that the war
party in Japan is profoundly discontented
with the terms of the peace made with
China and measures may have to be taken to
satisfy Japanese aspirationsin another quar-
ter. Now that the Japanese have acquired
the long chain of islands stretching down
the Chinese coast and including a strategic
coign Of vantage like Formosa, they will
naturally desire to complete the chain by
the addition of the Philippine archipelago,
which would double the area of the Mikados
empire. The Spectator is right in saying
that Japanese emigrants in Luzon are al
ready numerous; when Mr.. HENRY NOR
MAN visited Manila last year he observed
that Japanese enterprise was likely to make
itself felt there, and learned that Mr.. NAKA-
MURA, formerly Japanese Consul, was about
to establish a trading company at that
port. Where there are emigrants, it is of
course easy to raise a quarrel on their
behalf and it is hard to see how
Spain could defend her possessions in
the East from Japanese aggression.
Japan is at this moment far stronger than
Spain as military and naval power. She
could cut off regnforcements sent from
Europe, sink the ne.ny's ships, and conquer
the Philippine Islands one by one. 1t seems
that some time ago Baron BRANDT, who was
for many years diplomatic representative
Of Germany in the far East, predicted that
an effort would be made by Japan in this
direction when the Chinese war should end.
Undoubtedly it will be difficult to persuade
the Japanese to rest upon their oars; they
have caught the fever Of aggrandizement,
and If they are determined to acquire more
territory, the Philippines lie in the line of
least resistance. We agree with the Spcctd-
tor in believing that no European power
would interpose to uphold the shameful
misgovernment of the islands by Spain.
Spain's extremity would be Cuba's oppor-
tunity, and for that reason we can but hope
that Japans next move will be against the
Philippine archipelago.

The republic Of Brazil has got along very
we'll under the civilian President who took Office
last November, and of whose ability to maintain
the peace there were SO many doubts Both Of
his predecessors who held Office after the fall Of
tho empire wore soldiers both Marshals; yet
there were constant disturbances during tho
Presidency Of each of them, SO that ono was
compelled to resign, and the other left Office be-
fore the civil war was ended. Ever since No
vember last the conduct of President MoRAEs
has justified his election; and there is no doubt
that his pacific disposition has had most favor
able influence upon the perturbed country. 1t
is now his policy to close up the troubles which
have existed for over two years in the State of
Rio Grande do Sui. and there is report that he
has accepted the offer Of mediation made by tho
President of the adjacent republic of Uruguay,
which has always been charged with stimulat-
ing tho troubles. as a means of enlarging its
own territory. We do not know of any better
way Of pacifying the discontented State which
certainly had Just cause for the discomfort it
exhibited under the Presidency of Marshal
PEIXOTO.
Brazil is n country which ought to enjoy un-
bounded prosperity, and which possesses all tho
means for the enjoyment of it.

The Tunnel Craze.

The high character of the gentlemen con-
stituting the Rapid Transit Commission
cannot save the Rapid Transit bill now in
tho Legislature at their instigation from
being what 1t is. In simple words. 1t is a
scheme to exact from New York something
different from what it had consented to
give; to obtain from the Albany Legislature
sanction for an alteration and expansion of
public work of unprecedented magnitude,
which, in its original form, was submitted
to vote of the citizens of New York, and
which should never be submitted to any
Othe- authority. In words still palmer, but
no less faithful in accuracy, it is bunco
scheme. 1t should be beaten.

pitch OF enthusiasm. He made an earnest
appeal for Independent political action in
1896 and occupied a good deal OF time IL
lustrnting the necessity Of breaking away
from the old parties.
His auditors were evidently with him,

the president or Senator Sherman was

continue the domination Of the English
money power he was greeted with a

story Of Jaokson's refusal, when captured
by the British as a boy to black the boots
Of an English officer, who struck him
with a sword, leaving a scar that he bore
until death. He gave it a political turn
by exolaiming that there were Democrats
In Tennessee who would black those boots
today and lick the hand that struck them.

1893, the last member Of bis family, Mary
A. Ambold, a young girl, just budded
into womanhood, followed her mother to
the grave. The loss was q severe one to
Ambold. and he visited the graves very
frequently and kept them covered With
flowers, About eighteen months ago. he
bought q CAGE Of artificial flowers, which
he directed Superintendent Naylor to
have placed between the graves OF his
wife aud OIL est daughter Since then he
has not visited the cemetery until yester-

when he entered the cemetery about 8
o'clock and spoke to him Re went
directly to the family lot and took q seat
near his wife's grave. Several times
afterwards the superintendent saw the
man sitting by the grave but as it was
no unusual thing he paid no attention
to him.
About 8 80 be heard the explosion Of
q revolver, bnt as this is not an extra
ordinary occurrence in that vicinity, Mr.
Naylor gave It but passing thought.
until soma OF his workmen noticed smoke
rising from tho direction Of Mr. Ambild,
when an Investigation was made
On reaching the spot Ambold was
found with his head lying on his wifs's
grave. while a six cham bersd revolver
lay beside him. His eyes were set and
he appeared to be dying He implored

weapon close against his left breast dis
charged it the bullet en- tering below the

Ambold is about S. years Of age and
