 nomination for President by either of the two great parties.
 That is so.
 Men have refused to let their willingness to be nominated be infei red from their silence, amid others efforts to nomina te them. That is what Mir, Cleveland has just done, and that is all he could do,
 He did not-he could not-no man could veto the right, check the power or with stand the act of his party to nominate him without his consent or against hls wish.
 He has cleared himself of willingness or design or desire to be nominated.
 He has not impaired the sovereignty of his party over his wish or will or d!s- inclination or adverse determination.
 The man has made his decision known.
 ThS party's perfect right and unques- tionWie freedom of action have not been zen reduced an iota by his statement of his refusai to aid or personally by silence to assent to others work for him The man is great and strong.
 But the party is greater and stronger than it's greatest and strongest man.

SOME LATE EXPRESSION The Fort Gaines, (Ga.) Recorder says;

Mir. Cleveland says he don't want to De the candidate of the party next year, but that don't seem to keep the people from turning towards him and they may yet say he shall be. Whether they do or not, remains to be seen-this we venture-that the man chosen to lead, if not Cleveland, will be the one that measures nearest to the standard of .sfhe greatest private cit- izen Of the world" If you have such an one trot him out; we are for him.
 The New York Sun, discussing the letter of MT. Cleveland. says:
 We repeat that never has a nomination for the Presidency been refused, when rendered by 8 great political party, speak ing through it's National Convention.
 And this other expression is from The Boston. Post:
 No man has the right to say that he will not serve his country. No man knows better than MT. Cleveland that if conditions require it he must accept, even he may be called. He cannot close the door and stay outside; it Is always open when the demands of the public are made known; and Mir. Cleveland is by no means political feeluse, superannuated, indif- ferent. He Is one on whom the people have the right to call. <x
 What The Recorder says is just what thousands of other good Democrats are saying. There is nothing to keep the peo- pie from demanding that Mir. Cleveland be nominated, but If that cannot be done then they are going to demand a man who measures nearest to his standard, Who that man may be is not yet ap. parent, As has more than once been the case with great political party the Democrats are very much at sea-. There have been number1of names mentioned, some of which are simply impossible and need not be considered. There has been ! mention made of some others who closely approach the Cleveland standard. We regret to say that we have a few esteemed contemporaries who throw fits eeyry time they hear or read the expres- sion, Nearest like Cleveland" What they want is man as unlike him as DOS sible-his antithesis in all things. They win not be gratihefd and may as well bow to the inevitable. for the party is fast recovering its reason and it will nominate a sound Democrat. Whether he be named Cleveland, or whether he is some other Democrat of the same clas. the future must reveal. He is going to b. a Democrat all right and the party vii support hina
 The extract copied from The Sun ii merely historical. but when taken in con nection with the language of The Bos ton Post 1t is significant. The Sun is no a Democratic paper, but Is thorough! independent. It does not approve o Roosevelt and does approve of Cleveland There are those who look on the latte fact as good ground for opposition t Mir. Cleveland, but that matters not. Tn

rHE rnzsrDENrs MESSAGE.

The senaInS in of the Presidents mes sage on the first Monday of December is one of the regular events of the meeting of the National Legislature. Sometimes for one cause or another 1t is delayed untsi the next day. but the one to the regular session of Congress xentsin yes- teraay and will be discussed more or less for some time to come.
 The extra session which expired at noon yesterday. was devoted 10 the one subject of securing bill of reciprocity with Cuba. and although 1t ought to have been disposed of in few hours, 1t did not be- come sIaw. and will not be voted on by the senate until the 18th inst. By the failure of this bill to be enacted into a law the President met with a distinct failure. notwithstandlng the fact that there is a clear majority of his friends in both houses. That it will become a law, however. Is one of the certaintiss of the future. and that it was not enacted long ago is more or less of reproaeh to this country.
 0fside of the new Cabinet position of s'Commerce and Labor" and the Panama Canal and Republic. the President de- votes but little discussion to anything. He makes reorganization of the business of the various departments, He believes in | big army and bigger navy The usual peFfupetory recital of relations with other cOuntriea is set forth. There is no reference to many things about which it was expected he would say something. While the country has been hearing of the great frauds and scandals in land offices and in the postal system there is but scant reference to them. He upheids the action that has been taken in reference to Panama, and in the end his views will no doubt be sustained and the treaty which has just been ratihed by the Panama junta will be similarly treated by our Senate.

account of County taxes, and authorized
thesissue of $250,000 temporary loan
bonds with which to pay off the same
amount of seven per cent water bonds,
