CAPITAL GOSSIP.

Mr.. Harrison has allowed himself |
to be beguIld by the soft-speaking of
flee into believing that he |
might again be the candidate of his |
party in 1892 This is daily becoming
more apparent and accounts tor many
seemingly queer appointments Ills
idea is To appoint only Harrison men,
and to carry it ont he has already off
ended nearly every leading man in his
party. 1t is only few days since he
refused TO appoint relative of Sec
Rotary laine ppstm S er Of Pennsyl'
vania town;nuthwithstanding the fact
that Mr.. Blaine hnd personally asked
that the appointment be n:adt. This
bit of wild lunacy, for it can be called
nothing else, on the part of Mr.. Harri.
son furnishes lots Of fun for the pol.
iticiaus here. McGinty has more show
of being nominated 10y the republicans
in 1892 than Mr.. Harrison has.

~ The republicans are not havir
er smooth sailing i'll the preparation
IN a new tariff DlIl. They started o.
IN with the int-n ion Of reporting Il
~ bill to the HDLse by the first Of Fe
ar ruary now til y say they hope to ha
IN it ready by thu first of March. II
es whole truth OF the matter is, I'll
s. tariff reform idea is spreading so ra
le idly that it is getting among the /
Is publicans, and unless the Ways al
OF Means committee report very di
fe erent bill from what Charm;
sr Mckinley started out to MAXI, it W
Id never be passed by the House. r
es new rules are pretty far-reaching bl
Id they cannot accomplish everythin
re as will be disc 9vered before this ses
