Shrewd Caner0n-He Advises

Confident on the Tariff Issues

Confident ON the Tariff Issues
PHIEADELPHIA, December 26.
The Times has the following dispatch
tonight from Washington:
Senator Cameron will pass several
days of the present week at Harris
burg, returning in time to partici-
pate in the New Year calls. In
speaking of the political situation
and outlook he said:
81 think that the President made
mistake in his message, but i do
not share in the opinion SO COM
monty and, it might be said. I'M
thinkingly circulated that it might
defeat his nomination. Mr.. Cleye-
land will be the nominee of the
Democratic party next year unless
something should transpire not now
anticipated. There is no one else
upon whom the Democrats could SO
thoroughly unite their siren 9Th.
In New York he will get the full
Democratic vote. That means n So
we're and doubtful contest there, and
certain defeat if we fail to poll not
only our own but moro than our
own vote. IF our fi.iendsithink we
are going to have walk over, they
may be much surprised when the
time comes"
In the tariff issue the Senator
said: "When the people, mean
Republicans-say the President has
ruined his chances of reelection by
his message, it would be well to bear
in mind that this is large country,
with many interests and varied
opinions. We, at this moment, find
some of our staunchest Republican
journals taking issue with the
opinions expressed by some of our
own leaders against the doctrines of
the Presidents message. When a
leading Republican newspaper takes
occasion to caution it's party to pro-
coed slowly in criticising the Presi-
dents message, We have a practical
illustration of The diversity of opin-
ion on question which now prom
Uses to be a leading issue. But we
can point to stronger indications
the loss of the control of the Min
nessota delegation in Congress on
this very question, in 1886.
eve must not think that the de-
feat of President Cleveland is a fore
gone conclusion, on account of his
position on the tariff.
at is long time before the cam
paign. Many things may occur in
the meantime. A compromise meas
ure may be passed in the House,
which may be concurrcd in by the
Senate. The tariff may then not be
a leading issue at all. We then will
be compelled to make our contest
on some other issue. In fact old is
sues have been worn thrcadbare.
1t looks asif the people will demand
something new. !" ~ i
The Senator indicated very clear
ly that the Republicans would be at
a great disadvantage in the coming
contest, and even with entire har-
mony and cooperation in theil;
ranks, "a stubborn conflict would be
inevitable. He does not believe in
Understanding the element of
of strength which the adversary
may develop in the contest. They
will have the control of the machin-
cry of government, which always
carries weight. They will also have
tho prestige of success, which gem
orally carries the floating vote, un-
less some exceptionally potent rea-
sons divert it towards the minority.

when they do not subscribe to all
his views of public policy. He is
an extremely dangerous man to

Harry Gunner to the effect that he
might, did he so desire, remain In Gin

mated, He thought it would be a good
idea. inasmuch as there was still a little
more money on hand, and he did not

than at the exposition. 1t was thought at
first the car would arrive home between
the 1st and 9Th, but it is quite probable
that it will not arrive before the 18th, If

lieye he had anything to do with the
