An Unfounded story.

A very unre ssOnable story is being cir
culated in the West that Speaker Carlisle
has become disguised with mis- residence
in Kentucky and intends to make his
home IN Wichita, Kas., where his two
sons reside, when his term as a member
of the Fiftieth Congress expires. Mr..
Carlisle's sons are very pleasantly situ-
ated in Wichita, and be is at present Wis
iting them. This is about all the founda-
ton there is to the story.
1t is not at all probable that Mr.. Car
Isle will abandon Kentucky, or that he
will leave public life as Ions as he has good
health and retains his popularity. There is
no doubt that if be is a candidate at the
next Congressional election he Will be
elected by one of MIS- old time N ajorities.
The chances are, however, that ne Will
be called to some other position of trust
and honor If his party continues in pow
er. lie is not only very popular but
very able man. He administers the office
of Speaker with conspicuous ability. In
deed, it is doubtful it any other Speaker
OF the House ever gave as general salts
faction as MIR. Carlisle does.
Mr.. Carlisle was interviewed on Tues
day at Wichita respecting the report that
his seat in the tftieth Congress would be
contested, and that on that account he
would not be a candidate for Speaker.
In the course of the interview he SAID
that he knew nothing of any contest, and
that, In fact, there was no ground upon
which contest of his seat could be MAIN
tanned. He further said that he would be
candidate for reelection to the Speaker
ship if his friends desired him to be, but
that he should not seek the place.

The Public Building Site.

A special Washington dispatch, pub
lisbed elsewhere in this issue, states that
the Supervising Architect OF the Treas
ury is moving in the matter of the site for
the public building to be erected In this
city. The indications are that the site at
the corner of Bull and South Broad streets
will be selected unless grave obstacles
are found to be in the way of it's selection.
The question Of condemning that site is
now being considered by the Attorney
General.
There are reasons for thinking that
some of those who at first favored the site
at the corner OF Bull and South Broad
streets think differently with regard to it
now. They see that if the building is
placed there, Bull street will be, in a
measure, ruined for a promenade for
ladies. When the Federal Court is in
session at the custom house the pave
ment in front of that building is fire.
quently almost impossible because of the
crowd of men there. the crowd is gen.
orally to be found there the greater part
of the day. The same sort of a crowd
may be expected at the corner of Bull
and South Broad streets If the public
building is placed there.
OF course the other side of Bull street
might be used for promenade, put that
is not the favorite side, and, besides, even
that side might not, under the circum-
stances, be an unobjectionable prone
made.
The location Of the building is very
important matter, ard great care should
be taken to make no mistake about it.
When once the location is selected it will
not be changed.

The President may have reason to re-
greet that he wasn't made a LID, or
something up at Harvard. Abiding
to Mr.. Lowel's address, it is stated by a
correspondent that Secretary Lamar
asked the President il he knew what that
erudlte gentleman meant when he said /:
1--WE have no politics here, but the sons
of Harvard all belong TO party which
admres courage, strength OF purpose and
fidelity to duty; and which respects,
wherever he may be found. the 'Justum
ct tenacem propositi yirum,' who knows
how TO withstand tue 'Civium ardor

piled that he had not the slightest idea
what he meant, but his private secretary,
Mr.. Lamont, VINO mad recently received
the degree Of A. NJ, had promised to get
the State Department translator to put il
into plain English. lie did not know
whether Mr.. Lowell was striking at the
Mugwumps, the civil service reformers or
the old style Democrats.

1t seems that at least one Republican
candidate for Congress owes his defeat to
the Presidents civil service reform or

"Ex-Attorney General John Little, the
Republican Representative in Congress

feated in the last election by James f.
Campbell, Democrat. CampbelPs ma
jority was only three. There are about
thirty CLERKS in the departments here from
Little's district. Before this they had
gone home TO vote. Seven of the clerks

Henry George and the Tariff.

The workingmen of New York regard
Henry George, their candidate for Mayor
of that city, DIS their friend, and they
showed their confidence In aim by giving
him more than $4,000 votes. 1t would
seem as if they ought to have confidence
in his judgment and opinions. They can
hardly regard him as one of their leaders,
unless they agree with him on great
questions, which vitality affect their in
terests. Many workingmen are protec-
tiouists. Mr.. George is a free trader. In
letter to friend in Connecticut lately
he wrote; " am free trader, pure and
absolute, and regard protection as fraud
on workngmen. If | were IA citizen OF
Connecticut l would sign your circular,
or do anything could to show the work.
ers how they are humbugged by a tariff
which, while protecting favored capital
lists and landowners, leaves them free to
grind the faces of their employees"
What Mr.. George says about protection
is true. Now that he has little leisure
time, how could he better employ it than by
showing workingmen how the present pro-
tectiye tariff INJURIES them? To enlighten
the workingmen with regard to the tariff
may be his mission. Let him enter upon
this work and see If he does not meet with
such success as will repay him for his
trouble.
