Especial Correspond. nee to THE SENTINEL.
WASHINGTON, July PA well
known newspaper correspondent has
just returned here from trip. Rep
resenting great republican journal
of the West, himself an intelligent
and fair minded man, his views are
entitled to much respect. He says
that the force of the farmers move
ment inpolitics is largely spent, that
it will go entirely to pieces in the
West and that the effort now making
in the South cannot countervail. 81
should say" were his concluding
words, ''tEat the movement in the
presidential contest of next year
would have about the value of the
greenback and labor movements of
the past"
Crisp went back to Georgia, but
McMillin remained here to look after
his fight for the Speakcrship. Judge
Crisp in the opinion of many good
judges has the bulge on the other
candidates. Mills is out fit, Spur
ger and Bynum were never in it.
A friend of Col. Hatch, of Missouri,
the farmers candidate, who BULLDOG
ed the oleomargarine bill through
the House az chairman of the agri-
cultural committee, said to-day:
''Hatch is going to have a bigger
vote than anybody thinks. He is
both popular and energetic. If he is
elected he will be another Randall in
the chair, 1t will take man of grit
| and iron to run the next House, espe-
cially until the old ules are restored" )"
But this man is mistaken if he thinks
Col. Hatch can be elected Speaker.
Crisp or Wilson or McMillin will be
the man.
Wannamaker's personal status may
be thus sized up: \ man just from
the great West was asked today
what the republicans out there
thought ofthe revelations concerning
=. III. g. Wannamaker in the Key
stone Bank affairs. about as they
have always thought" he replied.
''The people never took any stock in

The New York Sun is now trying to
manufacture capital against it's great
enemy, ex-Prcsident Cleveland, by
twisting remarks of other supposed
can,l lidates in the headlines 1t did
that mean thing to-day at the ex-
pense of Gov. Campbell, who express
ly did not say OR intimate that he
was running for two offices at once,
although the Sun says that he did.
By the way, our people ought not
to be deceived. From private Ohio
men it is learned that Gov. Camp
bells only chance of election is in the
extent of the support the republican
farmers may extend to the third
rarty. If the. third party draws
many republicans the democratic
n'elcontents in Hamilton county,
and there are several thousand ol
them, will be nevtr.lized. 1t is safe
not to predict Campbell's election.

Theory and Practice Different.

It will be remembered that the
eminent and opulent Mr.. Rockefeller
recently declared that his income
was so greatly in excess of his most
extravagant means for disposing of
it that he was compelled daily to
kneel down and beseech divine
guidance in spending it. If any
body thinks from this that Mr.. Rookie
feller will exert himself in support
of the Ohio Democratic platform.
which provides that persons enjoying
just such extravagant incomes shall
be obliged to pay a proportionate
income tax to the State, he doesn't
