It Is asserted that Mr. C!PV«VI:'P.I
wants to "create a nucleus of consi'tva
tlve Democratic sentiment nroiiml
which the party will rally ami out of
which a candidate will be selected wtio
will be widely different from, tl.e nomi
nee of 189t» and 1900." It is a singular
coincidence that Mr. Cleveland is tis
"widely different" as anybody that
could be picked out. But. of course,
till* only "happens so."— Rochester
Democrat and Chronicle.
Mr. Cleveland'* ( oiioihciicmm.'
Mr. Cleveland has been uceusi'il of
sentences which are longer and broad
er aud deeper thun the average luind
liuds it easy to handle. L'nklnd persons
have accused his style of pomposity,
and the flippant have insinuated that,
like Oliver Wendell Holmes' katydid,
"he says an undisputed thing in sui:h
a solemn way." But when he replied
to a question about some recent chat
tering of William Jennings Bryan he
was as clear, as concise and as in
cisive as the most exacting of his lit
erary critics could demand. Said Mr.
Cleveland: "He's got the stage. Let
him go it. l guess that is definite
enough." Bacon could not have done
better. —Phlhldeltthin If ecnril
