of the box in the seventh inning. Marsh,
the Mt. Peasants pitcher, had the Marks at
his mercy after the second inning.

The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1891-11-26

masters of the country are to make
their influence felt in the election of
delegates to the Republican national
convention. 1t is needless to say that
this movement is in the interest of the
occupant of the White House. 1t is
being manipulated by Boss GARRISON,
aided by Mr.. Wanamaker, who is
said to be ambitious of becoming
politician. Within the last week II
number of the more prominent post"
masters have been in Washington,
and none of them went away until
Clarkson had taken then to Mr..
Wanamaker's residence, where Il
secret conference was held at which
the whole program was gone over
and explained, as far as Boss Clark
son deems it wise to trust the post
masters. The only aid that Mr..
Wanamaker can give is to let the
postmasters know that he approves of
their undertaking, the work mapped
out for them by Boss Clarkson, who
lets them understand that Mr.. Harri-
son is behind him.
1t is now stated that Secretary
Foster has made up his mind, after
consulting Mr.. Harrison, not to make
Il change in the Office of the comp
trOller of the currency, nOtwithstand-
ing the popular Impression that the
incumbent, Mr.. Lacey, had, by his
seeming carelessness in the matter
of the wrecked national banks in
Philadelphia, Boston and elsewhere,
lost the confidence of the public
which it is 50 necessary for the holder
Of that position to have, if discredit is
not to be brought upon the entire
national banking system. 1t is I'M
derstood that Secretary Foster will,
in his annual report, attempt to show
that it is weak ..ess in the law and not
lack of vigilance on the part of gov
ernment officials that is to blame for
the hoodwinking OF the department
by unsOund banks.
If confidence were votes all OF the
candidates for speaker would be
elected. Votes are mighty scarce here
because the members of the house are
apparently in no hurry to arrive. 1t
is noticeable that the fighting between
the friends of several of the leading
candidates has again taken on the
vicious and personally abusive style
that was so much deprecated by the
cool-headed friends of all the candi-
dates when it was first begun several
months ago. These hot-heads seem
TO lose sight of the fact that when
they abuse candidate every word
they say is treasured up by the Re
publicans for future use against the
entire Democratic party. The great
mass of the Democratic party has no
favorite for speaker. All it asks is
that the man selected be sound upon
the fundamental principles of the
party.
EX-Gov- Foraker is here, ostensibly
on professional business, but it is
known that he is pulling some wires
that run pretty close to Mr.. Blaine in
order to get help in his fight against
sherman. He is going homo today,
but he will return on the ODD inst, TO
help the Cincinnati folks try to cap
ture the Republican national conven-
tiOu
