he Did Not Understand ~

Col. K G. lngsrsoil is one Of the lawyers TO
whom lis profession yields a fortune every
year. A quarter "a million is a small valua-
ton TO place upon his receipts says The Detroit
Free Press. and he is one oil the few men who
shine either IS plsader or a counselor He has
accumulated great wealth, which. 1t is safe TO
say, no one who knows him begrudges him.
His face aud form are familiar TO all Wall and
Broad street ulen. and his offices on Wall street
are handsomely lifted up and elegant. They
are comfortable orf3ces. Just rs the genial Bob

Quay stays,

Senator Quay Is to remain at the head OF
the national republican committee. AS
soon as it became evident that Pennsvi-
vania had elected democratic governor it
was quite generally said that Quay would
have to resign, because. il he had not in
sisted upon the nomination of Delamatsr
for governor a republican governor might
have been elected. But 1t seems that the
republican party can'a do without him vet
awhile.
And the reason why he has been asked to
remain at the head Of the national commit
tee. If ic be tine true reason. is a rather curl
Gus one. 1t IS that the committee is yet
largely in debt. The expenses Of the cam
paign Of 1888 have not vet been paid, and
1t is thought that no other man in the Re-
publican party can come SO near frying
enough fat out of the manufacturers TO
meet these obligations as Quay. SO he is to
stay, and pay the committees debts, and
then, according TO a Washington dispatch
to republican paper, lie is to be permitted
to resign.
1t cannot be very gratifying TO Quay to
be retained under such circumstances, but
he would rather remain on such humiliating
conditions, probably, than to go, because if
he were to resign now it would be said he
was forced to do SO because his state re-
pudiatsd him and his candidate in Novem-
her. There is really nothing of Importance
for the national committee to do for a year
OF more, and before the next campaign
opens way will be found to get rid OF
| MIN. His party would not attempt to carry
such load as he has gotten TO be through a
presidential campaign.

Last Sunday, when the sky looked
gloomy and the Presidents message was
impending. Elder Editorial Freak Shepard
went before the brethren and sisteren in his
church and decided 10 'fess up" as the
Rev. John Jasper would say. So he laid
bare tbs worldly vanity that once strongly
tempted him TO dye lis hair; but said that
he resisted the temptation after e very
short scutie, when he saw that another
brother had used the same paint and
found it mo good" His desire to dye
ended at that juncturs in the proceedings
Since that tho elder has been running a rip
snorting republican paper. that he may
live and not dye"

Third Party Talk.

There IS a good deal OF talk among III,
aiIHnoemea a. the Ocala convention abou
a third party. Some 0. them Seem to thini
that the alliance could elect the next Presi-
dent If 1t should undertake TO dc 50. Thos,
who entertain this opinion are almost al
from the ives. The Kansas eiliancemen
particularly, are enthusiastic il theii
! demands that the alliance shall become :
third party, and undertake to get control
! Of the government The alliance met with
! such success IL Kansas in the November
election, that they have the impression
/ that 1t can do almost anything.
The southern alijaucsmen at tne cOnven-
/ tion, however. are much more conservative
in their views Their failure 10 elect a
United States senator 10 Alabama and also
in Georgia has convinced them apparently,
that the time has not We. come for the slli>
ancs to attemp. to elect President, and,
besides, the majority Of them are too
strongly attached - tas Demo cratic party
to attempt t. destroy that party.
II Is impossible to predict win any de-
gres Of certainty, however, what course the
convention viii recommend. Mr.. Pow
derry, the chief OF the Knights Of Labor, is
at Ocala, and il Is not known what course
he purposes 20 recommend. IL he thought
there was any chAuc3 for the success Of
third party it i pretty safe 10
say that he would gladly assist in
forming such party TIE Knights OF
Labor are not nearly as strong an orgsniza-
tioa as it was couple Of years ago, and the
understanding is that II Is steadily losing
ground Ia that case the alliance would not
gain great deal OF strength from them in
third party move roent.
Some time ago movement T. fern
citizens alliance was started, and 1t has
shreWder members Of the farmers alliance
think tnat that If there is 10 be third party,
II wonid be wise plan 70 have the citize1s'
alliance organize it, with the understanding
that the farmers alliance should support it.
That would save the farmers alliance from
humiliation and their organization from
IL the third party should
meet with disastrous defeat The blame
for the third party movement would be
placed upon the citizsns' alliance
But there is very little probability that
the Ocala convention will recommend the
forming of a third party. As vet the ALI
ance is strong in only few states. And
even in those states it would be difficult to
control the whole Of the alliance vote for
third party ticket.
The alliance is yet secret organization.
The meetings Of the national alliance con-
ventiOn are being held with closed doors.
Tbs people would not support presidential
ticket put out by secret organization.
Secrecy in politics doesn't NEST their aD-
prevail
There viii continue to be talk at Ocala of
a third party as long as the convention Is in
session, and perhaps in the state alliances
the subject will receive more or less atten-
ton, but it is q pretty safe prediction that
there will not be a third party. The contest
in 1899 will be between the Democratic and
Republican parties.
