Six States will hold their own elections
prior to the general polling in November
which is to decide the fate of the presiden.
cy. Tennessee and Ala bama lead the pro.
cession next month, the one on the second
and the other on the sixth, and both, it is
commonly believed, may be conceded to the
Democrats in advance. Arkansas follows
ON the third of September, Vermont on the
fourth, and Maine on the tenth. Georgia
closes the list with an election on the third
of October OF the last four the Democrats
expect to elect their tickets in Arkansas and
Georgia, and the Republicans in Vermont
and Maine The only recent presidential
year when either of these has disappointed
expectations was in 1880, when the fusion
OF Democrats and Greenbackers in Maine
elected Harris M. Plaisted Governor.

Senator George G. Vest, of Missouri, was
mistaken for Henry WatteFsnn at the Hoff-

between those two eminent Democrats is
remarkable. Occasionally man who knows

"rhe Republican party is in favor of the
use of both gold and silver money, and con.
demns the policy of the Democratic admin.
istration in its efforts to demonetize silver"
says the Chicago platform. This is about
unmeaning as anything in the literature of
finance, but it conveys. nevertheless, a com.
pliment to President Cleveland's admins.
tration. The use of gold and silver as money
is tolerably well established in this country,
and nobody is now seeking to discontinue it,
AS silver has not been "monetized" in this
country, and cannot be until free coinage
of that metal is established by law, neither
Mr.. Cleveland nor anybody is likely to de-
monetize it. But Mr.. Cleveland has shown
sufficiently and repeatedly that he is np-
posed TO free coinage, and also that he is
opposed to the coinage of any more Bland
dollars than there is public demand for. 1t
will be considered by all intelligent men of
business in the East, and by scholars and
financiers everywhere, fine compliment to
MIR. Cleveland that the Chicago convention
has drawn attention to his position In this
important matter, although the platform does
not state the position of the Republican par.
ty on the silver question, except by infer
ence. So far as inference goes, the implca
tion is that the Republican party differs
from Mr. Cleveland as to silver coinage, If
any strong impression to this effect were
made by the platform it would add great
many votes to the Democratic ticket in New
York and New England this year. On the
other hand, it is easy to see that this plank
is not the kind of delverence that the silver
producing States and Territories wanted

General Harrison explains that he is not
descendant of the round-head Harrison
who was hanged for his share of the killing

is very likely. The cold, proud, sristoeratic

THE BATTLE GROUND.

Those who imagine that the nomination
OF Harrison and Morton by the Republican
national convention was an accident or the
result of unforeseen circumstances should
lose no time in getting rid OF that deuson,
for delusion il is. AS u matter of tact the
action OF the convention in making the
nomination il did was premeditated and was
the result Of deliberate judgment on the
part of the shrewdest Republican politicians
of the country that such u ticket would
give the Republican party better chances of
success than any other that could be nomi
mated. 1t may be possible that they made
a mistake id their judgment, but however
that may be, the Republican plan of cam
paign is based upon theory of which the
nomination of Harrison and Morton is the
logical consequence.
The Republicans have no expectation of
carrying any Southern State. but they do
expect TO carry every Northern State they
carried four years ago. They have no seri
Gus expectation OF carrying New York, and
the leaders Of the party are wise in political
ways To know that all efforts or energies eK
pended To gain the electoral vote of New
York will he expended in vain. They also

SHERMAN is SORE.

In II recent interview Mr.. Sherman is re-.
ported to have said: "Blaine could not have
been nominated, not on account of opposi-
ton to him, but for prudential reasons."-
Mr.. Sherman proceeds to say that "his fol-
lowers insisted that every candidate should
successfully encounter the field, expecting
that each would fail to get the requisite ma
jorty of all the votes, so that no one would
be left To object to the nomination of Blaine"
This is exactly what everybody knew
before the conclusion Of the contest Sher-
man had TO encounter Blaine's forces, and
il is said that he was the only candidate
who would not consent to the unanimous
nomination of Blaine, so Blaine's friends
deliberately slaughtered Sherman and nom
mated Blaine's man, Harrison.
And again Mr.. Sherman says that Rlane's
supporters "were not willing to submit hin
to this test The votes of his followers
were, whether by design or not, carefully
distributed, some TO vote for him on each
ballot and Others to vote SO as to prevent an
agreement, and this created irritation and
bad blood"
Of course such hgh-handed work is not
conducive to harmony. 1t raises the ire of
defeated candidates, as it should, because
Mr.. Blaine had led all candidates to believe
he would not be candidate. Mr. Sher-
man says further "Hoth Harrison and Nor
ton are gentlemen of high character, good
Republicans, and ought to be elected, but
whether the theory of their selection was
correct one will be best judged by results"
Mr.. Sherman does not speak in the usual
hopeful Republican manner, but to the con
trary he leaves the matter in doubt us to the
result.
Dir. Sherman is sore, as he has right to
be. He was beset with enemies within his
own delegation as well as without. The
Blame Foraker combination encompassed
his defeat, and Sherman's friends in Ohio
know that fact as well as any living persons
