Mr.. Cleveland on "Fishermen I,


No one has ever charged Grover Cleveland
with being a humorist. wide though the
range of the analysis of his character has
been. Yet he must surely have developed
the qualities of a jester of late, otherwise
1t is difficult to accept his protest against
being classed with others of his kind. as
among the fishermen" For Mr. Cleveland
is himself far from acceptance by the high
est range of anglers. those who fish for
the purest sport, who seek not the bodies
of the fish for gain. who check their greed
when their baskets are decently filed, who
love the exercise and the contact with
nature and who grumble not when the luck
is poor. These are the qualifications named
by Mr.. Cleveland to distinguish himself
and others like him from the crude class
of fishermen" The truth Is that Mr..
Cleveland is far from being generally recog-
niZed as an angler in even this exclusive
sense. He casts not neither does he lure.
He bats a hook-rather a bunch of hooks
and he losses 1t overheard, there to rest
until some fish shall be tempted by it and
impale itself. The small boy with one sus-
pender and a wide brimnned straw hat whose
outfit consists OF crooked pole, a string
and bent pin is more an angler than Mr..
Cleveland. for he catches only tiny fishes
which have no food value whatever and Is
the minnows to his wriggling worm. Mr..
Cleveland has omitted an important ela-
ment from his catalogue Of piscatorial quail

Cleveland may be an "angler" in the sense
that he does not fish for gain and stops be-

must abandon his dredging methods and

seriously by the elect as an expounder Oh

Meanwhile it Is well to understand that Mr.
Cleveland Is willing to break his silence

Welcome the President.

The proposition that the citizens OF the
District welcome President Roosevelt on
his return to Washington from his long
western trip tomorrow evening is altogether
happy and will doubtless meet with a
hearty response from the people Of Wash
ington. Never before has the head of the
nation taken so extensive a Journey, COW
cred so many miles. met so many people
and had 50 active a personal experience
1t will be a notable homecoming, and In
view of the cordial, close relations between
Mr.. Roosevelt and the people of the capital
nothing could be more appropriate than
that the latter assemble on Pennsylvania
avenue tomorrow night to greet him as he
is driven to the White House. The sugges-
ton that he be escorted by the regiment of
High School cadets is in good taste, and
their participation will add peculiarly
neighborly element to the occasion. 1t will
be Washington affair rather than for
NAL official ceremony. and will most salts
factorily put the finishing touch to the
Presidents long and fatiguing but highly
successful swing round the circle. Let
everybody turn out at seven tomorrow
evening and add to the significance of the
occasion by joining the crowds to welcome
the RETURNING Chief Executive.

yer as the ablest presentation of their side
of the question. One paragraph In particu-
lar has been greatly admired by them, ana
has done more duty on the stump tnab
any other extract from our political liter
ature. The Bryanites used 1t all through
the campaigns of 1896 and 1000, and II
makes anything Mr.. Bryan himself has
said on the subject look, by comparison,
like thirty cents, silver money.
So far as the democrats OF Kentucky are
concerned, they have remained true to
what they learned from their leaders on
the money question. For years they heard
nothing but free silver. Mr.. Beck. MI.
Carlisle Mr.. Blackburn, Mr.. Everybody
who had their ear and respect preached 1t.
Mr.. Watterson advocated 1t in the columns
of his influential newspaper Mr.. Beck DIED
in his belief. Mr.. blackburn still adheres
to his. But Mr.. Carlisle and Mr.. Watterson
outgrew theirs. and when they became con-
WINGED that the gold standard was the true
standard both allied themselves with the
sound money cause. The change OF view
cost Mr.. Watterson several years of hard
shedding with his newspaper. as he has
frankly confessed. and it cost Mr.. Carlisle
his influence at home, and probably his
Kentucky citizenship.
But never MIND ABOUT tne heHeueS
democrats. Their recommendation in the
matter Of presidential candidate Is OF no
particular moment. Mr.. Carlisle Is now a
citizen of New York. and New York counts
in the democratic equation. If the sound
money democrats there and elsewhere want
a candidate who,- intellectually, stands
head and shoulders above any man whose
name. is now being canvassed in connection
with their presidential nomination let them
put up the ex-Kentuckian.

The Two Ohio Senators.

The extent of Mr.. Hanna's discontinue
and of Mr.. Forakers elation over the
Roosevelt Endorsement episode Is a matter
which lends itself easily to speculation
Much Is being made of It. and much more
will be made of 1t. Both men are able ana
aggressive, and both very human. They
are good fighters whenever tight Is IN
order. In a way they are rivals. But ooth
are loyal party men, and when the issue Is
Joined with the common enemy both go
for him. with all their might Regardless
therefore of what their present feelings to-
ward each other may be. both will probably
exert themselves to the utmost in this
years campaign to make the result
sample of what the Ohio republicans are
capable when they are feeling good.
Mr.. Hanna has undoubtedly been sayed
from what would have been very embar-
RAISING situation for him. Had his views
prevailed as to what should have been done
by the Columbus convention in the case or
Mr. Roosevelt he would have found himself
an object of suspicion on the part OF the
Presidents friends and the center of hope
on the part of the Presidents enemies. re-
publican and democrat. The trusts In New
York would have doubled their subscr1p-
lions to the anti Roosevelt fund. and the
Lily Whites In the south would have per-
fected arrangements for sending contesting
state delegations to the republican national
convention with the view of trying to per-
suade Mr.. Hanna himself to offer for the
nomination.
Not only would this state of things have
put Mr.. Hanna In the wrong light before
the country-he has. by his own declara-
ton been a Roosevelt man from the first
but 1t might have injured him in his race
for another term in the Senate. AS proud
as they are of him, the republicans OF Ohio
would not have relshed seeing Mr.. Hanna
thus made a factor in the opposition's
game of sowing dissension in their ranks
for a crop to be harvested next year. And
In the wrangle, in the weller of charges
and counter-charges, explanations and
CONGRATULATIONS, Mr.. Hanna might
have suffered.
That Mr.. Foraker in his activity has been
moved by desire to save Mr.. Hanna from
himself is a suggestion far too heavenly
for the time and place. But that he has
performed a service from which M. Hanna
will unquestionably benefit Is easily to be
seen and should as frankly be acknowl-

The Deputy Recordership.

The suggestion that local man be named
for the vacant Office Of deputy recorder OF
deeds Is gratifying to the people Of Wash
ington,, and, when viewed from the point
Of view of the chief of that office, such &C
ton would be eminently wise. Mr.. Dancy'

Mr.. Carlisle and Kentucky.

The Hartford Courant. a republican news
paper. pays the following tribute to a dis
tinguished democratic statesman
1.-The Young Mems Democratic Club of
Atlanta, Ga. is going to hold a big political
rally. the object of which is to obtain eX-
pressions from men of national reputation
about the future OF the democratic party.
The meeting will be held just after the con-
vening of the summer session of the state
legislature. John G.. Carlisle, who Is to be
the principal speaker. is one of the ablest
and sOundest OF living democrats. A politi-
cal speech from him at this season is sure
to be worthy of the attention of all demo-
Gratis. The date of his Atlanta address is
June p. and we may safely say in advance
that il will be among the important utter
ances OF the year by any member of the
party.
Mr.. Carlisle has devoted himself strictly
to the practice of law in New York city
since his retirement from the office of Sec
rotary of the Treasury under Mr.. Cleveland
uSS-lS0). but the time has come for him
to reappear upon the political platform.
No man has ever spoken more effectively
for sound money and tariff reform than
Mr.. Carlisle did when he was the leader Of
his party in the House of Representatives
and during the campaign prior to 1896.
Had the democrats OF Kentucky remained
true to the fundamental principles of DENT
ocracy Mr.. Carlisle would now be put for
ward by them most available candi-
date for the party to nominate for Presi-
dent in 1904"
The Courant in this matter is not as well
advised as usual. When a member of the
House OF Representatives Mr. Carlisle
never made a speech in favor of what is
called sound money. He was at that time
regarded a friend of silver. His famous
speech on the coinage question, made in
February. 1873. has ever since its delivery
been regarded by the advocates of free sill

Carrot A. Hobart,

The unwilling at Paterson yesterday of

Ices OF an excellent and most capable man.
Mr.. Hobart played his part on our national
stage exceedingly well. and received a lib
eral measure of applause. 1t was said of
him in the eulogies pronounced at the time
of his death that he had invested the vice
presidency with an Importance 1t had not
before enjoyed. Certain 1t is that he filled
the office in a way to make 1t count in the
affairs of the Mckinley administration. and
to fully justify his party's Judgment In
calling him to the place. He possessed the
confidence and friendship of Mr.. Mckinley.
and his name will always be associated
with the wise policies which were inaugu-
rated when the republican party under the
leadership of the Ohioan was restored to
power.
