FUTURE. So ~ ofA
A Boston special to the New York Times
gives this interesting bit of personal gossip
concerning the three prominent western edi
tors: Horace White, of the Chicago Tribune;
Henry Watterson, of the Louisville Courier
Journal; Murat Hslstesd, of the Cincinnati
Commercial. and Samuel Bowles, of the
| Springfield Repu blicsn, are all here tonight,
as the report which travelled round the
country recently said they would be,
| but they protest that they are not here to
hold a conference regarding the future of the
| liberal republican party, as this same re-
port said they would White and Waiter
son are stopping at the Parker House. and
Halstead and Bowles at the Revere,
| and it is declared they came by
invitation TO hear the eulogy of Carl
Schurz.l However this may be, they
were altogether late this evening at the Par
ker House, like a band of brothers, in Wat
terson's room. Mr.. White. being called up
on in reference to the report of the political
significance or Their gathering, Immediately
answered he would give authority for an I'M
qualified contradiction of the statement. He
said that the party of which he was a men,
Der was present at the eulogy on Charles
concerted arraignment. Messrs. Watterson
and Halstead happened to be in Washington,
and, being DESTROYS of coming further East,
they had written to him to make us a little
party for avisit to NJ ASA chusetts, and he had
gladly availed himself of the opportunity
thus presented for pleasant trip, as he hap
pened to have some leisure to dispose of.
He futher stated that if any conference
should be held, the only question to be dis
cussed would be the financial problem which
seems to be the great bone of contention
in political circles at the present
time. He thought that it was the
imperitive duty of every newspaper
in the country, of whatever party or fac
tion, 10 educate the public mind mp TO
proper standard, so that every voter in the /
land might understand the merits of the |
financial questions which so persistently |
clamor for solution. The paper with which
he was connected had taken a stand in the
matter which he found conceded with the
views of the other journals whose represen-
tatives are now in Boston, and it was proper,
in his estimation, that they should take
together to see If anything addi-
tional could be done to relieve the country
from the mass of irredeemablep paper money
under which it is grooming. In answer to a
question he said that, personally, he was
willing to accept every line of the presi-
ient's veto message, and looked upon the
which it presented as the
irst note --...-- .. .. H.

Why it was the people of the West had been de-

said that in the first place, it could hardly be

population favored a further issue of paper :
