Defeat for Delamater Would be Bad
for Boss Quay.
WASHINGTON, July 30.-SDeaker Reed
and Chairman Mckinley are not going to
speak for Senator Quay's man, Delamater,
in the coming campaign in Pennsylvania.
Speaker Reed and Chairman Mckinley, es-
pecially Chairman Mckinley, with his I,50O
democratic majority, will have their hands
full at home. Neither will President Har-
rison when at Cressen exercise himself 70
aid Delamater. Harrison would not weep
If Delamater should be defeated. He does
not like Senator Quay.
QUAY A HEAVY LOAD.
He thinks Senator Quay heavy load for
the Republican party to carry, and yet he
does not see how to unload him, but if
Dslamater should be defeated or elected by
only a small majority, President Harrison
could afford TO turn a cold shoulder
to Senator Quay, feeling that
Senator Quay's prestige was spoken.
President Harrison knows very well that he
has nothing to expect from Senator Quay
in 1892. Senator Quay is now for Alger.
He may be for some one else then but he
will certainly not be for President Harri-
son. Senator Quay will oppose President
Harrison, Secretary Blaine and Senator
Sherman. Speaker Reed is now his second
choice-perhaps his real first choice.
