GRADUALLY TAKING POSITION.

The Washington correspondent of the
New York Journal of Commerce writes
his paper that the two political parties
are gradually taking position for the
Presidential compalgn. and that 1t is
less difficult to forecast what they will
declare on the financial question than q

parties will make such declarations as

Impressed with the necessity of
the Importance .of carefulness in
handling 80 delicate question
as that which is involved in the recogni-
ton of Cuban belligerency by this coun-
try, Mr.. Cleveland has determined, ac-
cordipg to washing ION advices. to send
special agent to the island that he may
secure more trustworthy information of
the affairs over there than has been
furnished thus far. OF course, there are
those who will question the need of
such proceedings but in go grave a
matter too much care cannot be exer-
cised. and the President had better by
far put himself ana the country in po-
sition where he can act adv!sedly. than
| to plunge ahead without knowing where
he is going. No man ever los, anything

ing this view. our contemporary believes
that the people could not have more
impressive object lesson as to the ten
denotes of the protection system than
VIII be furnished BY the nomination of
Mckinley.
1t Is of the opinion that the Democrats
have only to avoid the commission of
folly on the financial question, and
that they can make a hopeful fight for
the Presidency on the issue of McKin-
ieyism Or in other words assuming
that Mckinley will be the nominee OF
the Republican party. The Citizen has
no doubt that to fight fairly and
squarely against the policy as enunciated
tby him. must greatly enhance Demo-
cratic success
