Show third term proposition washington D C sept alth 1895 special many democrats of wore or leaa mostly leas ce have lately assumed to speak for mr cleveland on the third term question but it vill be noticed that no democrat whose relations with mr cleveland are such as to isike il even presumable that he was conversant with mr Clev elands desires has committed himself on the subject although some of them like comptroller of currency eckels have talked in a noncom non com way about it repeated at tempts have been made by the shrewdest of newspaper interviewers to get a positive assertion from some bembera of the cabinet but none have succeeded there is but one inference to be drawn those who are asserting that mr cleveland docs not wish a third term are doing so without any knowledge of what his wishes are probably with the hope of influencing him while those who are in a position to know his wishes are baying nothing waiting for mr cleveland to say what he wishes said and mr cleveland is waiting to ascertain democratic sentiment on hia candidacy candi dicy for a third term before he commits himself either way he wanta that nomination again and if he thinka he can get it will not hesitate to let his wants be known if the drift of democratic sentiment indicates that he would be defeated if hia name went before the convention a letter filled with lofty platitudes against a third term may bo confidently expected from him before the convention in short lie wants it if he can get it and want it if he cant get it |
