It would put into the heads otherwise harml individuals the idea that notoriety could b> achieved by bulleting or knifing the chief magistrate of the United States. It i1s not an easy matter to see President Cleveland, eith the white house or in his private residence out at Woodley, a few miles west of the c center. A crank may easily gain admission to the white house, but it is almosc as easy for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle as it is for an absolute stranger without proper credentials to gain admission to the pres- ence of Mr. Cleveland. It has been pubiished broadcast that the present occupant ,of the white house was ‘'scared of his life,” was “afraid of cranks,” and all that sort of thing. It has been stated in every quarter that there never were half so many detec- tives and policemen and safeguards throw about the president as now, and that he is shadowed wherever he goes. Realizes His Danger. Attention has also been called to the fact that Mr. Cleveland is never seen riding in public places, and that when he does go out 1t is in a closed carriage, accompanied by one or two men beside the occupant of the drive box, and that he never goes walking. 1t 15 also true tnat he does not stroll around the white house grounds or frolic on the greeusward out at his country home. It is also true that when he emerges from the white house after his day’s labor to ride in a closed carriage out to Woodley he fairly hustles out of sizht, But under the present stress of crankism this condition is not to be wondered at.
