"Presidential Problems" is the title of a volume containing four essays by ex-President Cleveland, two of which were originally delivered as addresses at Princeton University, while the other two appeared as magazine articles.All four of the essays have been thoroughly revised by Mr. Cleveland. The first, on " The Independence of the Executive," is an important discussion of a constitutional question which occupied the thought of the founders of our government ivs much, perhaps, as any other one topic. Mr. Cleveland's review of his own experience in the Presidential chair, immediately after assuming office, in 1885, is a contribution to history. The same may lie said of his paper on "The Government in the Chicago Strike of 1894," his defense of the bond issues in the years 1894-96, and his account of the Venezuelan boundary controversy of 1895.

Whatever Cleveland says has solid worth, but the care which he has spent on '"Presidential Problems," and the essential worth of the problems themselves give his book great value to the serious reader, as a vivid, trenchant study of present-day questions, from the view-point of a thinker.
