Under a New Manager.

Senator Quay is no longer manager OF
/ the Republican party. His resignation as
chairman of the national republican COM
mittee, which was received BY the national
executive committee on Wednesday and
accepted, seems to give satisfaction 10 all
the party leaders. And Col Dudley, the
treasurer Of the national committee, mas
also resigned.
! The other republican leaders were salts
| fed that Quay and Dudley we're too heavy
load to carry, but they did not know how
to get rid of them II seems that MIR.
Blaine was chiefly instrumental In getting
them 60 resign. and he did not make enc
mics Of them. On the contrary, they are
very friendly to him and will do what they
can IN make him the republican nominee
! for President.
Although Quay and Dudley had political
records which are not Of the best. they are
| about the ablest OF the political managers
Of the Republican party. In the next
national campaign they will be greatly
missed in republican councils. In the last
national campaign the most effective work
was done by them. 1t may be that they
advice should be felt, but being out of re-
sponsible positions and feeling that their
work has not been appreciated they will
most likely leave the active direction Of the
party - those who think they are wiser and
better than the deposed leaders.
Gen. Clarkson, who succeeds Mr.. Quay as
chairman of the national committee, is not
wanting in confidence in himself And be
has considerable ability as a campaign man
ager. He is one Of those politicians who
believe that to the victors belong the spoils.
When he was Assistant Postmaster Gem
eral he removed postmasters 80 fast that the
clerks in his office found it hard work TO
keep correct count Of them.
Gen. Clarkson is believed to favor the
nomination of Mr.. Blaine. Indeed, about
all the members of the committee seem to
think that Mr.. Blaine should be the repub-
lioan standard bearer In 1892. They say
that the great majority Of republicans want
Mr.. Blaine nominated, and it looks as if
they would use their influence 10 accom-
plish that object.
And Mr.. Blaine seems TO be willing to be
nominated. He knows that his friends are
working for his nomination and he does
nothing to check them. Those Of the repub-
lican leaders who have seen him recently at
Bar Harbor speak as if it were understood
that be would take the nomination if he
could get it. The talk to the effect that he
is q confirmed invalid aud has not long to
live has little or no foundation. And this
talk has strengthened him with the masses
of his party, because it has created sym
patty for him. The belief has got abroad
that President Harrison's friends are perse-
cutting him, and it has had the effect of
making friends for him.
Just now it does not look as if President |
Harrison had much chance for a renomina-
ton. Only the ofIice-holders are enthusi-
astically for him, but they will have a good |
deal to do with the selection of delegates TO |
the national convention. If they remain
true to the administration there will be
enough Harrison men in the convention to
make great deal of noise

Why Not Mr.. Ohiplevp


Some one writing from Gainesville. Fla,
to New York papers says that there is
movement on foot to induce Gov. Fleming,
of Florida, to appoint Col. Chipley, of PEN
sacola, United States senator. The gov
ernor evidently considers Mr. Calls election
to the senatorship as invalid since he has not
given Mr.. Call certificate of election. If
he is determined to appoint some one, why
not Col Chipleyl
Col Chipley represents very fairly those
who are opposed to Mr.. Call. and, as he is q
man of ability and high character, he would
get admission to the Senate if anybody
could. 1t seems pretty clear that there is
going to be a contest for the senatorship,
and it is certain that no one could make a
stronger fight against Mr.. Call than Col
Chipley.
There is difference of opinion in Florida
as to whether Mr.. Calls election is valid or
not. The only place it can be adjusted. if
adjusted at all, is the United States Senate,
| and if the governor appoints auy one, the
appointee should he a firm and au aggres-
| sive man. as well as a man Of ability. Col.
| Chipley comes as near being such a man as
any other man in Florida, and, besides, his
services to the Democratic party entitle
him to any honor In the gift of the COVER
| nor.
The MORNING News has expressed the
4 opinion that Mr.. Calls election is valid,
and that he will get his seat; but If the
governor thinks differently. and determines
that there shall be a contest for the office,
he should select strong man TO make the
contest.
