Eefore committing himself on the subject
or standing second term for the pres-
dency Mr.. Bryan would have done Well to
communicate with Mr.. Cleveland
There Is every reason to believe that
when Mr.. Cleveland declared against a sec
ond term in the White House he was en-
t.rely sincere. Though under circumstances
not SO dramatic. his first nomination had vet
come to him under circumstances quite as
unusual In their way as those under which
the nomination of Mr.. Bryan has come to
KIM His had been a sudden rise to a Iarg=
fame He had defeated in the convention
all OF the party veterans. While not a
chicken, he was yet young man. There
Was some wagging of heads on this subject
and on the subject of his inexper.ence in
national affairs The veterans WHISPERED
to one another, and wondered what the eff
feet would he of elevating such a man to
so high place.
Mr.. Cleveland heard Of this, and was ad-
monished by it. He knew how strongly
the element of selfishness entered into the
springs of action. and he threw a SOP to the
party leaders by formally proclaiming
against a second term He said, In sub
stance: Gentlemen. turn in and help elect
me. and I'll be in no mans way at the end
OF my term One term as President should
satisfy the ambition OF any man."
Did he mean It? There is every reason
to believe that he did. But he knew little
about the great temptations of power tx
cept from speculation. He described them
very well in his pronunciamento. but he
had not as yet encountered them. When
he did encounter them he yielded like a
SNOWFALL under warm sun. His fine reso-

luton melted completely away. Hs stood
willingly Tor his second nosainakton, man
euvered for his third, and held his peace
when scores Of his retainers and admirers
were urging him for a fourth. The matter
was put to him SO temptingly each time
that he could not resist 1t requires really
great stuff in a man to hold out against
prolonged and persistent appeals to his
vanity. -.~~ -.s-,..
Is Mr.. Bryan Of the mettie to withstand
such siege? Conceive him in the White
House. surrounded by men Of his choice,
himself the youngest man ever elected to
the presidency. The battle begins for what
he and his supporters vaguely refer to as
"A new order Of things" Such battles are
not won, If won at all, in any brief period
OF time. One movement suggests another
movement and even little success intoxl-
cafes The presidential term draws toward
the end. and Mr.. Bryan, somewhat tenta-
lively. recalls his resolution. Conceive-for
1t Is easily done-ths effect on his advisers
and retainers. Retire now? Why, the new
order Of things" has but just been fairly
lnaugurated. Everybody depends on him.
If he reHnquishes leadership the mossbacks
will return to power. All that he has sue
ceeded in erecting will be thrown down.
The country will really be worse OF than
II he had never been elected at all
The result Of this sort Of thing on q man
OF Mr.. Bryan's age and temperament is
easily predicted. He would yield, as Mr..
Cleveland yielded. easily. gladly. He would
not only put himself into the hands Of his
friends. but would compliment them on
their sagacity and discernment, and CO.
operate with them toward the multiplying

Rod when his knowledge Of power was

Non-Partt.an Coun.eI.

Every loyal citizen should ally himself
against the forces which controlled the
Chicago convention: forces Of lawiessness-
which are Inconsistent with the mainten-
ance of the republic.
That seems to be the voice of the ad-
ministrction. 1t is likely to be accepted
as such until President Cleveland makes
open declaration OF war upon the Chicago
platform and the nominees who stand
proudly and confidently upon that re-
rnarkable structure. Immediately follow
Ing the declaration of principle by Assist
ant Secretary HamiiE. from which the
foregoing quotation Is extracted, come
similar announcements by Secretaries
Olney and Herbert; the other members of
the cabinet will almost surely fall into
line This wholesale disavowal of the
Chicago platform by representative demo-
Gratis makes it reasonably certain that
the campaign which is now on will be
non-partisan. There Is reason to believe
that many thousands Of voters will soon
respond enthusiastically to Mr.. Hamlin's
conclusions. which are:
Hencefcrth there should be no repubIi-
cdii-no democrat-but q union of ioyal
citizens against the combined forces of re-
pudiation and disorder. When once this
dangerous element has been stamped out
at the polls by an indignant people, we can
again divide and discuss those political
questions which for generations have kept
alive the two great political parties"
