Why People Want a Change.

The Rochester rost-EXpress puts
much in a little when it says: THE
people have become deadly tired of
this Democratic administration; they
yearn for the restoration of the Re-
publicans to power. They are con-
WINGED that they made a colossal blum
der in defeating Harrison in 1892 and
are anxious 20 have November 1876,
arrive. so that they can atone for 1t
by electing Mckinley. Now and then
the voters become reckless and try the
experiment of handing the reins to the
Democracy. The result is that they
speedily wish, with all their hearts,
that they hadn't.
THE policy which has been pursued
by the Cleveland administration has
been weak when it has not been un-
American. and un-AmericGn when 1t
has not been weak. 1t has been The
sort of a policy which would be ma

proud, the imperial bird which he is.

cans, obeying the promptings CT their
sympathetic, liberty-loving hearts,
cried God speed to these Cubans,
President Cleveland's attorney general
sprang to his feet and informed them
that it was contrary to the spirit of in
ternational law for them to give pub
lie expression to their feelings in the
premises. Having filed this remons-
trance, the administration, ignoring the
public spirited action of congress, has
steadily turned to Cuba a frigid shoul-

Americans desire change at Wash

Adlai Stevenson, vice president Of
the United States, is in state of deep
est melancholy at the ingratitude of
politicians. Acting upon the advice Of
false friends, Adlai has kept quiet upon
the currency question. trusting in them
to bring his name to the front as their
candidate for president. Now that it
is too late for repairing fences, he
finds that his friends have allowed him
to slip from their hands and that he

DemOcracN'S Farewell.

The outcome of the Democratic con-
vention which will be opened at Chi
cago tomorrow, is somewhat uncertain
in spite of the claims of the various
contestants in the race. The Missouri
champion Of silver, Richard p Bland,
to outward appearances seems to be in
the lead of all competitors, but wheth-
er he will be able to maintain the ad
vantage it is difficult to predict. 1t is
quite certain that the party will go
headlong for free silver and that the
tariff question will be secondary con-
sideration on the platform, which will
be framed for the express purpose of
catching all stray protectionists with
silver inclinations. From present in
dications, however, 1t Is safe to predict
that there is no chance of u compromise
of the Democrats and Populists upon
Senator Teller as a presidential candi-
date. In sticking to a silver champion
within the party that has become so
unpopular with the masses the exuber-
ant advocates of free silver, who have
chased all opposition from the sound
money wing to the woods, will make
the triumph Of Mckinley and protec-
tion certainty at the beginning Of the
campaign.
In spite of the fact that the Whitney
coterie are sending out bulletins an
nouncing that they will not bolt the
ticket in case they are defeated In their
efforts to restrain the silver enthusi-
asts, ii is pretty certain that at the
proper time they will secretly knife the
candidates even If there is no revolt.
A careful review of the situation must
convince the reader that Democracy
will receive a defeat at the coming cleo
ton which, If it does not wipe the party
out of existence entirely, will render it
powerless for harm for years to come.

ALEADER NEEDED.
/ the Wilkes-Barre Record.

FT0m the WIIkeS-Barre Rtcord.
What Is the matter with the Wilkes
Barre Republicans? In almost every
other large Pennsylvania city Mckinney
ratification meetings have already been
held or arrangements are in progress foi
such demonstrations. Not movement
has been made in that direction In this
city. This is certainly not due to lack
of enthusiasm for the Republican ma
tional standard bearer. Is 1t because we
have no organization, no effective party
leadership?

was tied up; work became scarce;
wages dropped. and the national debt
was increased many millions. Why
shouldn't the level-headed Americans
desire change? Is it not natural that
they should take to good times rather
than to bad times? To protection and
a surplus rather than free trade and a
deficiency? To an administration
which discharges rather than an ad-
ministration which piles up the nation
al debt?
"A change of parties is imperatively
demanded for still another and most
important reason. Mckinley stands to-
day as the representative of the party
which is distinctively the party of hon.
est money. The Democracy. on the
the other hand. is just as distinctively
the party Of dishonest money. ho
wonders that honest folks want a
change at Washington"
