There are rumors that Cleveland's northern friends are moving1 this early to put him In the field in 1900 for a third term as the gold candidate for the presidency. It is altogether proba ble that these rumors are well based. Cleveland would doubtless rejoice to be a candidate for a fourth term and pres ident for life. He is greedy. He will not foe the democratic candidate, that is assured. He may be the candidate of boltocrats and the gold end of the republican party. It is certain that the large bimetallic element in the re publican party will not again support any gold I standard candidate. That Cleveland '"means business" is appar ent. He is already speech making with an eye to another nomination. ' His greed Is insatiable, his lust of power stupendous. No man who has lived - since Washington could have been elected to a third term not even the great Lincoln or General Grant, the .northern idol. We do not attach must importance to Henry AVatterson's political gyrations, pronunciamentoa and horn blowing. He has lost all influence with the real democrats! No man ever made a more unjustifiable desertion or ever betrayed j more ruthlessly the party be bad sought to lead. But he is a big man with the handful of boltocraW, and ' a much abler man than ,old man Pal mer or; that, dead failure in war and peace, Simon Buckner, the played-out. Watterson has seized his big tin horn and is blowing loud blasts of warning as to Clevelandr He must have sense enough to know- that his blasts can neither alarm nor arouse the demo crats. If ! he is blowing to stir his friends, the Palmer-Buckner ghost crowd, he will fail for. they would doubtless-prefer Grover to any other rover. Watterson is in a state of high excitement. He seems to be really "skeered;'? He has always prodded Clevelandr He now says beware of Cleveland. And he has the impudence pure, unadulterated to - warn the genuine ; democrats of Cleveland's machinations as ijf they cared a snap for either Wattersoh or Cleveland. Let him blpw until he bursts his cheek. Let Cleveland orate and plot, he will never bej president again. If Cleve land could have had his finger upon the great throbbing heart of the simon- pure democracy when his" last minute of office came when he was no longer president, he would have known of the great uplifting of the soul and the mighty rejoicings of the grand old party. Watterson says "Forewarned is Forearmed." But who cares for his warnings? -He is exhausting his wind to no purpose. "Let the heathen rage and imagine a vain thing." Watterson sniffs treason in the breeze and like Job's famous war horse smells the (battle from afar. He say3 Grover is out for 1900 that his candidacy is a menace to the future of the party. What party, whose party? Not Cleve land's, for he has none. No Watter son' s, for it is a small affair not count ing much more than 100,000. He Bays that dinner and speech are- the first gun of the next national campaign that Cleveland will seek the presidency every four years so long as he shall live. Very likely But the presidency does not seek Grover and the people want none of him. If anything can ever unite the entire republican bimet allists, democrats and populists it will bd the prospect, .remote of otherwise, of four more years of Grover. God for bid! Here are a few toots from Henri's tin horn: . ' "He has had his . day a sad one for his party and whatever contributions he made to the cause of good govern ment during that day are upon the rec ord and go to his credit. But his name in connection with the presidency can be only a reproach, because aside from the contaminations and frictions it in volves, it carries with it the odious idea of a third term, antagonizing a law, unwritten it is true, but deeply Imbed ded in the popular mind and heart. Mr. Cleveland can never again be president of the United States. Under no conceivable circumstances ought he to be. That he should contemplate an other candidacy affords strong evi dence of a lack in him of integrity and virtue. It was said not long since, and very truly, that Mr. Cleveland would be -a candidate for president ev ery four years as long as he lives. The circumsances of his life, in the absence of , any elevated principle of calcula tion or unselfish rule of action, bear him' out in the belief that he is a law .unto himself, contradicting all prece dents. He has impressed this belief upon the group of persons who imme diately surround him. Their no-, tlon that Mr. Cleveland is within httn, slf both a party and a "platform, and that he can command a following strong enough to win an election against the so-called democrats and the so-called republicans, is an illusion. "If Mr. Cleveland were possessed of the faculty for conceiving any publio affair apart fromj his own interest even if he had any real sense of per sonal dignity he would rid the great questions at issue from the embarrass ment of a presence which is not a help, but a menace. Instead of playing the parti of a ', philosopher and statesman, while exhausting every artifice to re gain the presidency, he would perceive the grandeur of being such In point of fact, and of enjoyjng, like a statesman -and a philosopher;, the repose of his honors and his years. But he would not 'be- himself if,, he considered any - thing else than ius own desire and will. The executlveJ office represents both. He likes the- power, the emolu ments, and the employment." There' is much more of this. It is from the 'bolter who followed Cleve land's leadership last year. It is from a man of j splendid editorial gifts who did all he possibly could to elect Mc Kinley and thus repudiate all he had been teaching. His estimate of Cleve land is Just and comes fram an ally. We had no patience with Watterson In his desertion and do not value his dec larations now. He is not to be trusted, but he at last understands Cleveland. "Half a span of angry steel" will pro duce no more fatal results than a neg lected cold or cough. For all throat and lung diseases, Ayer' Cherry Pec toral ia the best remedy. It . is Invalu able in cases of croup, whooping cough bronchitis and la grippe. ; WARS Alili 'ABOUT. The cause of Greece is evidently in the wane. It need surprise no one to learn before the week ends that the col lapse comes or that the powers have intervened to stop the fighting. It was a perillous business the Greeks entered upon. They seem to have fought well every where until thepanic struck the forces of the prince. There is uneasi ness in Europe and many wars and ru mors of wars. The prediction is that England will be sure to have a war with the Boers, a fighting people. In Uruguay there is heavy fighting. The army of the insurgents is reported at 20,000 in- command of General Saraiya-. Thus far the results have been on their side. The fights have not been on a large scale. The government is confi dent of final success. In Brazil there is a revolt and is reported growing. The government is preparing to ad vance against them, and results are counted as at least doubtful, as the revolutionists are reported in strong force. There is a war also in Hondu ras an insurrection of no great magni tude. These entertainments, with the j war in Europe and the long protracted contest in Cuba give great diversity to the scenery of battle and the excite ments of governments. Europe looks on the Greek-Turko war with interest, each nation watching hawk-like the other and something serious that the needed match may be applied to the magazine when there will be an explo sion heard around the world and that may shake the European continent. It is almost sure that Greece 'will suc cumb and that the powers will step in to prevent partition or conquest of ter ritory by Turkey. LITERARY GOSSIP, Making of lists of "ten best poems" is about as profitless as naming the "ten best novels." There is taste and taste, and some is; good and some is bad. A very different selection will be made by a poetj of ten poems or by a novelist of novels that readers gener ally would make. We would not be glad to have to read "the ten best novels" that many folks would make as their selections. - Thomas Nelson Page has gone to Eu rope. He is writing a long novel. , His fame will probably rest upon his two or three excellent early stories, which he recites with inimitable excellence and art. The "Gadshill" edition of Dickens is said to.be capital. Andrew Lang is the editor and it is a guarantee of excel lence. The illustrations are the old ones so popular and good. Byron is no poet quoth some of the poets of; this day and some critics. If you . will read all he so finely says of Greece, you will pity the little fellows who have been tuning their harps and trying to reach a fitting strain in be half of that little nation. Did you ever read his superb lyric on "The Isles of Greece?" That is poetry, with the em phasis on poetry. It begins: "The isles of Greec, the isles of Greece! Where burning Sappho loved and , sung, - t Where grew the arts of war and peace, Where Delos rose, and Phoebus sprung! Eternal summer gilds them yet, But all, except their sun, is set." Or take this stanza from that elo quent and noble poem "Childe Har old's Pilgrimage:" "Yet are thy skies as blue, thy crags as wild: Sweet are thy groves, and verdant are thy fields. Thine olive ripe as when' Minerva smiled, And still his honey'd wealth Hymettus yields; There the blithe bee his fragrant for tress builds, The freeborn wanderer of thy mountain air; Apollo still thy long, long summer gilds. Still in his beam Mendeli's marbles glare; . . Art, Glory, Freedom fail, but Nature is fair." . Who writes that way now? What dash, what spirit, what swing and pas sion, what classical flavor! Edmund Gosse of Trinity College, a charming English critic, and a poet too of clever verse, is editing what is called "The Literatures of the World Series." The first isssue Is "Ancient Greek Lit erature" by Gilbert Murray M. A. The price per volume is $1.50. We men tion this as possibly some of our read ers would like to begin with the initial volume of a series that promises to be entertaining and valuable. The Lon don Times says of the volume that "by dint- of a clean, freely moving intelli gence, which is not overwhelmed by the mass of modern books, pamphlets, and articles (German especially) through' which it has come to pass,, and by dint also of a style at once compact and lucid, Mr. Murray has produced a book which fairly represents the best conclu sions of modern scholarship with re gard, to the Greeks." Let us suggest here that if you love ancient poetry and have not availed yourself of John Ad dington Symonds's "Greek Poets" in two volumes, that you will do well to procure them. They are extremely in teresting, and contain many excellent criticisms and descriptions, . as well' as much fine . poetry. His chapters on Homer and some of the greatest Grek poets are exceedingly readable and bril liant. Some little - while ago Mrs. Amelia E. Barr wrote a serial story 'in two numbers of the Century. It Is the only thing, by her we ever read. "It greatly Impressed us, and we said in The Mes senger that it was -written with mani fest literary skill, vigor and interest.' It is now published in a volume retaining the original title "Prisoners of Con science." We have not read of its length in years so strong, thoughtful and artistic a story. We see it referred to properly as "a powerful hovel of the Shetland islands." Captain Mahan's "Life .of Nelson" will no doubt be widely read. The price is , $8, and tHat will cut off most southern readers. We find Gosse's "Critical Kit-Kats" like rich wine. He writes with singular elegance and precision and is a posi tively delightful interpreter. Mrs. Margaret Bottorne, president of the King's Daughters, has Just issued a 16 mo. volume, price $1, entitled "A Sunshine Trip, Glimpses of the Orient." General James Grant Wilson is to write a lije of General Grant's military career. Professor Edward Dowdeiu of the University- of Dublin, lectured before Princeton University. He will take the series as the basis of a work on "The French Revolution and English Litera ture." He is a man of superb scholar ship and writes admirably. Annie Beaston has a work announced entitled "Dames and Daughters of Colonial Days." They are of New Eng land women with the exception of Mrs, Dolly- Madison. . . . A students edition of W. C. Bryant's -translation of "Homer's niad," cheap as to price, is to be published. i HOME IfMLKS. We had purposed noting the greatly improved appearance of The Asheville Dally Citizen. It is a very neat paper, well printed on linotypes, very much increased in reading matter perhaps doubled and is well edited. Success to it. Judge Adams, the new youthful judge, did well in his decision relative to the asylum cases. The supreme court sustains him unanimously in favor of the present incumbents. These judges, one and all. will add to their reputations and give assurance that they are capable of rising above party and deciding according to law and jus tice. In a paper published at Buskin, Tenn., called The Coming Nation, of date 3d April, there is an elaborate pa per by Judge Walter Clark on "Malad ministration of the Postoffice Depart ment." It is a cogent argument well fortified by statistics and facts and comparisons. It does look really as if he proved his case that the department was greatly corrupt while the working staff is faithful and honest. Congress, if it knew its duty and would perform it, would make a severe scrutiny into this vicious and venal system." ;the nelson bankrupt bill. - The senate of the United States has passed a general bankrupt law, but it is not the old Torrey bill. It is known as the Nelson bill. That the disturbed condition of trade, the many failures and the depressed times need a bill of gome kind that will aid honest men who are forced to the wall, is apparent. But a law to protect scoundrels and thieves and to facilitate bankruptcies for "looting" creditors is just what is not needed or desired by honest people. We doubt if a majority of the southern people are favorable to any kind of general bankrupt law. They are afraid of consequences that it w;ill hurt more than aid honest creditors and debtors, and will open the gates for a flood ot iniquity. In the north we suppose a fairly good law would be approved by a majority, certainly of the business portion. We think it favorable for the bill that it should pass the senate. The fact that the Torrey bill, long before the congress, could not pass, but that the Nelson bill did pass augurs well for it. We have not read the many pro visions of the bill. Any one (but not a corporation) owing. $200 or more may go into bankruptcy if unable to pay. He must file his petition in the district court of the United States for the dis trict or division thereof in which he resides, asking for a discharge from his debts and offering to surrender all his property for the payment of his debts, except such as is exempt by the law of domicile from execution and liabll ity for debts. He must make a sche dule of all property of all sorts, includ ing exempted, and also a list of all debts, the amounts and nature of each, and shall surrender all unexempted property. The petition shall be heard by the, court not less than thirty nor more than ninety days from the time it is filed. If the court upholds the pe tition, the estate of the bankrupt is transferred to an "assignee" for set tlement. There are many other points and features of the bill. The excellence of a bill of this kind depends upon faithful execution, compelling honest failures and protecting suffering cred itors.. .-. SNAPS. Chaos still eentinues in the Kentucky legislature. Italy , has no law against bigamy. Hence it abounds. Colonel Mosley's chances to recover from his fall are reported good by Dr. McGuire, of Richmond. A firm of "bankers and brokers' "busted" the other day right on Broad way, New York, that had no assets. Three soldiers lately committed sui cide In the same barracks in Germany, and for the same cause-the cruel treat ment by their officers. Eighty-two per cent, of the entire production of cotton in the world were grown in 1896 in the south.

Osman Pasha, the great Turkish gen eral has gone to the front. He says with a laugh the war is all over. The Greeks will make a final stand at Phar sala. That is the battle field upon which the great Julius Caesar whipped Pompey the Great. Colonel W. C. Church is writing a lire of Grant. We mentioned yesterday another one. These writers multiply and when they finish Grant will be the greatest man in history and the irreat- est of all soldiers. Biography may be a fable as. well as history, as Na poleon said the latter was. In this country every 295 of popula tion, including women and children. have to support one saloon. In some states 200 or less have to do this.
