Colonel Dudley and w. Il. Noble Succeed in
EHecting an Amicable Adjustment.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.
RICHMOND, June lot will be pleasant news
to the Republicans of Wayne county, at least,
that w. 7. Noble and Colonel Dudley have
brought their differences to an adjustment that
is honorable to both gentlemen, and will save
the Wayne county delegation from an unseemly
division in the State convention. Mr.. Noble and
ms friends will no longer a%ntagonize Colonel
Dudley in his canvass for the nomination for
Governor, and Colonel Dudley and his friends
will no longer antagonize Noble in his canvass
for Auditor of State. Each will continue, no
doubt, to look after his own fences diligently,
but it is understood that the candidacy of the
one is no longer to be pitted against the candi-
daey Of the other.

Theodore Roosevelt Interviewed.

Mr.. Theodore Roosevelt of New York,
being in Boston for few days, a repre-
sentative of the Herald saw him and
asked him if he would give an authorita-
tive statement of his position in the pre-
sent political alignment. Mr.. Roosevelt
responded as follows: In the first place,

that have appeared so far are absolutely

presidential ticket. While at Chicago
told Mr.. Lodge that such was my inten-
ton; but before announcing it l wished
to have time to think the whole matter
over. A man cannot act both without
and within the party; he can do either,
but he cannot possibly do both. Each
course has its advantages, and each has
its disadvantages, and one cannot take
the advantages or disadvantages sepa-
rately. I went in, with my eyes open, to
do what could within the party. L did
my best and got beaten, and propose to
stand by the result. 1t is impossible to
combine the functions of guerrilla chief
with those. of colonel in the regular
army one has greater independence of
action, the other is able to make what &C
ton he does take vastly more effective.
In certain contingencies the one can do
most good, in certain contingencies the
other; but there is no use in accepting
commission and then trying to play
the game out on lone hand. Dur

Its Past Record.

From long article in the New York
Sun, reviewing the uncertainties of politics
in general and of the pending canvass in
particular, we extract the following The
democratic party, on the other hand, en-
ters into the campaign under the weight
of quarter Of century of continuous
disaster. This alone constitutes con-
siderable disadvantage. 1t affects the
leaders, who for the most part are without
that experience of administration which
is essential to high skill in politics and
it affects the masses, who lack that habit
and steadiness of discipline which can
only be acquired through at least occa-
sional success. More than this, the democ-
racy are sadly weakened by the use that
has been made of their memorable success
of 1882 in electing handsome majority
of the house of representatives. That
house cannot be said to have turned out
successful experiment. 1t was chosen as
a rebuke to the prodigality of the repub.
licans, and reform was expected from it.
Instead of this, it has spent hundred
millions of dollars more than were spent
by the squandering republican congress
which preceded the election of Mr.. Til
den, and within thirty five millions of the
worst house that ever existed. A fact like
this is not calculated to encourage great
deal of hope. But this is not the worst.
When this house met, its first effort, in
stead of being directed toward reform,
was to transfer the control of the demo-
cratic party from New York to Kentucky
and Illinois, and to change the time-hon-
ored policy of liberation upon the ques-
ton of protection and free trade into an
intolerant and exclusive policy in the free
trade interest. In pursuance of this plan
Mr.. Carlisle was chosen speaker of the
house, and a reduction of the revenue was
attempted under free trade auspices. The
whole session was spent in fruitless eff
fort to achieve this end. Thus nothing
was done to relieve the people of the
crushing burdens of taxation, while the
whole country was called upon to admire
the Inauguration of the new Kentucky
and Illinois policy. The people were
alarmed by this attempt, which promised
to favor the interests of British manufac.
turers at the expense of American work
iugmen and American capitalists. The
democracy was divided in two upon this
question, and much bitter feeling came in
to weaken and hamper the party"
