WHEELING w. a, FRIDAY MORNING. APRIL "a 1891
CLARKsOS TALKS.
The "Headsman" of the Administration
Gives His Views.

BosToN, Mass, April 23.-The Herald
this evening prints long interview
with Hon. J. S. Clarkson, president
elect of the Republican League, who Is
making a brief stop here while en- route
to Paris to join his family. Mr.. Clark
son says, in part:
1T is said that you are personally out
for Blaine aS against rcuVmination OF
President Harrison, suggested the re-
porter.
Il have no personal choice for Presi-
dent" replied Mr. Clarkson, with de-
liberation. Time will indicate the
man. II the silver question Is set
tied, the SitutiOn will be greatly
cleared. The seat Of Republican
power. the West, will never consent to
see the treasures Of the country dwarf
ed 10 gold basis The West will not
consent TO any candidate, or any plat
form that will not represent the double
standard idea, and the greater part Will
not consent to a platform that will not
represent silver as money by the coin
age OF the American product"
"Whoever is the Republican candi-
date must be man who can maintain
the solidity Of the party in the great
agricultural region west OF the Miss
issippi. The candidate must not only
be near to the people, but must not be
far from the farm"
Mr.. Clarkson said he believed that
Mr.. Cleveland will be the next Demo
cratic candidate. II his personal views
on the silver question do not quite suit
the South and West he will make them
suit. He feels that the gold people will
trust him anyway, and as the Western
and Southern Democrats believe In him
as man of destiny, he can success
fully hypnotic them on the silver ques-
tion, and | think he is doing 1t. En-
President Cleveland is one OF the smart
est politicians that his party had ever
had and the Republican party has al
ways underestimate him in this re-
spect. To win in 1892, said Mr.. Clark
son, we must bring up the Republican
newspaper circulation to meet that OF
the Democratic party in It's programme
to circulate tens OF millions OF argu-
ments directly to the houses OF the
voters
