WHEN the train on which ex-Presi-
dent Cleveland was travelling to St,
Louis last week stopped at Cumber-
land, Md, large crowd was at the
station, and as the Sage of Prince
tom appeared on the rear platform
he was vociferously greeted with the
old Democratic cry of "Grover, Gro
yer! Four more years of Grover!"
This incident leads the Washington
Star to question the propriety of the
demonstration in view of the suppose
ed Presidential aspirations of Senator
German. The Star says: "Cumber-
land is in the State of Maryland, and
Maryland is the home of Mr.. GormaA.
Was the demonstration neighborly?
Mr.. German is prominently mention
ed for his party's leadership next year.

WILL IT BE CLEVELAND AGAIN ?

1t might reasonably be supposed
that, when Mr.. Cleveland slept from
the Presidential chair in 1897, after
having been three times a candidate
and twice elected to the highest office
in the nation, his ambition was sat
ed and that he had retired perman-
emily from official public life. Recon
events however, hold the suggestion
of q purpose on the part of many
Democrats to make him their stan
dard bearer in a Presidential cam
paign for the fourth time, and it is
limited that "Barkis is willin'." True,
he has not succinctly declared that
he will consent to the use of his name
in that connection, but then he has
not on the other hand, given any de-
cided hint to the contrary. A report
er of the New York Herald" who
interviewed him at his home inPrince-
ton, n. j., on Sunday, found him,
according to the account of the inter
view published in that paper, very
non-committal touching the subject,
from which, as often as it was APP
preached by the newspaper man. the
ex-President adroitly switched him.
The incident has given rise to the
presumption that another term in
the White House would not be dis
pleasing to its subject
1t is generally supposed, however,
that if made a candidate again Mr..
Cleveland cannot count on the sup
port of Mr.. Bryan and his following.
The views of the Cleveland Demo-
Gratis and the Bryan Democrats upon
financial questions are so thoroughly
antagonistic that there is no possibili-
ty of their getting together. Then,
again, it is matter of public noto-
riety that Cleveland did not vote
for Bryan, either in 1896 or 1900, and
the Bryanites would, as a rule, like
nothing better than an opportunity
to get even on that score. Mr.. Bryan
clings to his free silver notions with
unchanging tenacity, and Cleveland
Democrats are quoted as favoring a
course which will compel him to bolt
the nomination of the next national
convention as success cannot reason
ably be hoped for unless he be placed
outside the works."
That conclusion may be all very
well from a sound money point of
view, but it is practical certain that
Mr.. Cleveland cannot succeed with
out Bryan's support, any better than
BRYAN succeeded acknowledgements.
While Democrats in the Eastern
Safes claim that Bryan mustbe ignor-
ed to promote success, many party
men in the far West declare that he
must be taken into consideration in
naming both the ticket and framing
the platform.
From all this it may reasonably be
concluded that something of 'mon-
key and parrot" time may be expect
ed among the Democrats in the strug-
gle for supremacy by the contending
factions next year. In 1896 and 1900
the free silver men were in the ascen-
dant in the party counsels, but from
present indications the sound money
Democrats will control the next con-
vention. In that event will they nomi-
nate Mr.. Cleveland? If so, they may
prepare for a sound drubbing at the
polls and four years more of Repub-
can rule.
