and only few of them registered. A
large number of citizens of Opelousas

it looked like bloodshed for time.

New York World Says Cleveland rs the
Logical Democratic Candidate.
New YORK, April 9.-The World
prints double-leaded editorial in
which it asks whether the logic of the
political situation that has led the Re-
publican masses to support Mckinley
will not compel the nomination of
Cleveland by the Democrats. The
paper says:
1.-The World does not assert that this
is so. 1t raises the question. 1t in
vites public discussion of it. So lar as
The World is concerned in this matter
it is entirely impartial, judicial and
impersonal. It has no special partial
ity for Mr.. Cleveland personally, as he
viii probably admit. 1t has nothing to
take back. But the question is not OF
the past, it is a question OF the future.
The Only Logical Candidate.
"Upon the issues OF the present and
future, not of the past, The World is
just as free and sincere in suggesting
that Mr.. Cleveland seems to be the
only logical candidate as it has been
fearless and faithful in admonition and
criticism whenever it has believed him
to be wrong.
cit is idle and might prove very un-
wise to ignore the fact that there is a
deep seated and widely prevalent pref
udice among our people against any
third term for any president. But it is
still a question whether any unfounded
fear and prejudice can weigh at last
against the force of events and the
logic of circumstances"

BULUwAYo, April Capt. Clifford,
