1892, and they nave coAnenceu IT,
as might have been expected. IN
disreputable manner. A determined |
effort, an organized effort has been
made and is being made to discredit |
and if possible disgrace the leading
republicans in the Senate. Deter
mined effort wss made to crush SEN
ator Allison. of Iowa, but failed
The democratic annex, called the
farmers Alliance, has made an effort
to iniure and defeat Senator ingalls,,
of Kansas. Hence, now, all of the
democratic cohorts of vituperation,
calumy, and criminal libel, are being
brought into requisltion for the pur-
pose of smirchlng tbs character and
running the reputation of Senator
Quay, of Pennsylvania. Whist other
republican statesman must be let OF
blood we do not yet know; but
enough of the democratic plan is APP
parent for as to understand the fact
that the democratic party has already
commenced determined campaign
against the character and reputation
Of the republican leaders.
Daring the past week / have COP
yer.ed with number of republican
senators and representatives concern
ing the prospects for 1892 and there
seems to be an almost universal be-
lief that Harrison will be re-nomi-
mated for the presidency. 1t seems
like history repeating itself. Presi-
dent Harrison is no better liked by
the politicians, that Is the political
leaders, of his party. than President
Cleveland was liked by the political
leaders of his party, during the early
portion of his administration. Some
how, however, the people throughout
the country got the impression that
Cleveland was good president and
the politicians had to re-nominate
him against their will. 1t may be
well confessed right here that the
political leaders of the republican,
party do not like President Harrison
rs we'll as they ought to do; but,
the people of the republican party
throughout the country, are undoubt-
edly inclined to believe that he is an
excellent man aud making very
good president. This being the case
of course the political leaders must
bow 70 the will of the people.
Senator Morrill,, of Vermont, chair
men Of Senate committee of Finance
and for quarter of century past
the leading protectionist of that Dig
nified body, to-day says conceruing
the Mckinley tariff bill; The senate
committee is considering that bill
Of course we know that it will be
amended in the House, and will mo-
come to Us as it is now reported ovel
there; bat when it passes the house
and comes to the senate it will b'
substantially the sane bill. 1t is al
excellent measure, and considering
all the adverse circumstances | d.
not think that the senate will be abb
to improve it very much"
There is no doubt that Senate
Stanford, of California, intends t
be candidate for the presidenc,
upon the republican ticket in 1892
If he possibly can get the nomina
ton. There are petitions now II
congress from over 100000 peopl
throughout the country petltionini
congress to pass the Stanford bill
making farm mortgages q Datlopa
currency. The pill is one of tn
most popular ever introduced in cor
gress, and people throughout tn
country very much appreciate it. A
though very wealthy man, Senate
Stanford is very unassuming mar
given to charity; in fact, just such
man a. the poor people of this cour
try would delight to support for an
Office.
General Grosvenor, Of Ohio, hs
she courage to say upon the floor c
the house what At least four-ffths c
TIE members think but dare not ,a.
He has declared that the civil servic
law 10 s humb1g aud . sham b
which the people of this countr
have been deceived long enougl
What he says is simply true as go
pei. The trouble is however, tn;
the people throughout the countr
have a sort of religious faith in Il
civil service law; and consequent
ths congressman do not dare IS
anything against it for fear they ma
not be re-nominated. The tru'
