Senator Georges Concessions.


The senior senator from Mississippi, Mr..
George, has written lengthy letter approx
ing everything in the Ocala platform except
the sub-treasury plan and government
ownership of railroad and telegraph lines
The senator has been addressing the people
of his state for weeks in opposition to tn Q
alliance orators. and it is probable that his
letter is intended to close his campaign. He
is candidate for reelection, and before his
refusal to approve the sub-treasury plan he
was about the most popular man in Missis-
sippi. Senator Walthall, the junior senator
from Mississippi, announced that he would
not be candidate for reelection. for the
reason, it is understood. that he could not
approve the Ocala platform, and
thought he would not have much chance for
reelection unless he did.
But 1t does not appear that Senator
George has made any concessions of couse-
quence to the alliance. The most i'm
portant thing in the Ocala platform, and
the thing concerning which there is the
most contention, is the sub-treasurY plan.
And the next thing in importance is govern
ment ownership of the railroad and tee-
X
can parties have shown no disposition to ap-
prove either of these things. 1t is stated
that Col. Livingston, who has been doing
campaign work in Mississippi, and who has
read Senator Georges letter, declares that
it will place the senator ''in a strong light
before the alliance" It is difficult to see
how the letter will help the senator with
the alliance unless that organization is will
ing to abandon the two main planks in its
platform. Aud, as an organization, it has
certainly shown no intention of doing that.
1t is true that very great number of
alliancemen are not i'll favor Of the SUBJ
treasury plan or government ownership of
the railroads and telegraph lines. That fact
was made clear at tho convention at Ocals.
1t will be emphasized at convention of al
liancemen called to meet at Dallas Tex,
July 10. The man at the head of the Dallas
convention movement is q. S. Hall, Presi-
dent of the Missouri alliance. He has
fought the sub-treasury scheme from the
time it was proposed.
1t is thought to be not improbable that
Allianceman Hall will have to resign the
presidency of the Missouri alliance-not be-
cause he has not strong support in the
alliance of that state. but because the presi-
dent Of the national alliance regards him as
disorganizer. But should he be forced
out of his position he would still have
great deal of influence with the alliance,
and might bring about split in that organi-
cation in the sub.treasury scheme Indeed,
when it is fully understood how impracti-
cable that scheme is the probability is that
it will not have the support of many think
ing alliancemen. The more it is studied the
less feasible it appears to be.

The Ohio Campaign.

The political situation in Ohio is attract
ing great deal of attention throughout the
country. The republicans talk about carry
ing the state by one of their old time major
tiles. but it is evident that their talk is mere
buster. As matter of fact. they are very
doubtful OF their ability to carry the state
at all. 1t Is about certain that the demo-
Gratis will renominate Gov. Campbell. They
have confidence in his ability to make
strong canvass, and there is no doubt that
he possesses political shrewdness in marked
degree. The republicans fear him. They
remember the last gubernatorial campaign.
1t was a lively one, and Gov. Campbell
demonstrated his superiority on the stump
to ex-Gov. Foraker, the republican candi-
date. so clearly that even his opponents adj
mitted it.
And the Peoples party is going to have a
voice In the campaign. 1t will draw
strength from both parties, but not as
much as its leaders think. It is bitterly
reason, it is thought that it will hurt the
Republican party much more than it will
the Democratic party.
The republicans nominated Maj. McKin-
ley for governor " IN great show of en-.
thusiasm. But the tide Of public sentiment
is running against him owing to his tariff
bill. Personally be is very much liked, but
it is estimated that thousands of republicans
will vote against him because of the plat
| form upon which he stands.
| The Ohio campaign will be watched with
profound interest because it will have con-
siderable influence in shaping the national
campaign in 1892. And it will reveal to
some extent the strength of the third party.
Ohio was well represented at the Cincinnati
conference and Ohio meu had much to do
with launching the Peoples party. In that
state, therefore. if anywhere, the Peoples
party will show whether it has any solid
| foundation.
As rule OHIO is a republican state. The
indications now are, however, that at the
next state election, as at the last, demo-
cratic governor and a democratic legisls-
ture will be chosen. II such should be the
case confidence in the ability of the demo
Gratis to carry the country in 1892 would be
greatly strengthened.

The speakership Contest.

There appears to be lull in the contest
for the speakership. Neither of the leading
candidates is saying much at present about
the matter. Mr. Mills, it is understood, is
writing a book on the tariff, Mr.. Bynum is
writing an article on reciprocity for mag
azine, Judge Crisp is looking after his
private business and Mr.. McMillin is in
Washington making friends with the con-
gress men he may happen to meet there.
They are all working, doubtless, in
quiet way to advance their respective in
terests. Neither of them wants to discuss
his chances in the newspapers at present,
and, therefore, they are not very approach
able by newspaper men. Later on, how
ever, each of them, in all probability, will
have more to say to the public than the
newspapers will care to publish.
There is no reason to doubt that Judge
Crisp 10 still in the lead. The more his
qualifications are discussed the stronger be-
comes the impression that he 10 the man
for the place. His knowledge of parlia-
mentary law, his Goodness in times of ex-
greatly in his favor.
Inc argument JnaT northern man
should be chosen speaker because so many
Of the chairmanships of the committees
necessarily will have to go to southern men
is not regarded as having as much force as
when it was first presented. The belief
that the best man, whether from the north
or the south, should be speaker is steadily
growing.
1t is not denied. of course, that Mr.. Mills
tariff record entities his claim TO great
deal of consideration, but it is offset by a
temper that he is not always able to con-
troll, and that might do his party great
| deal of injury should it get the better of
him during an exciting scene such as is not
infrequent In the House. But If Mr.. Mills
should not get the speakership he would, in
all probability, be given the Craftsmanship
of the ways and means committee, a posi-
! tion which would make him the leader of
the House. Should it be decided to be ad-
visable to elect northern man speaker the
chances are that Mr.. Springer would get
| the place

The Campaign in Iowa.


The whole country Will watch with in
terest the political campaign that was
begun in Iowa Wednesday by the demo-
Gratis. The denomination of Gov. Horace
Boies was wise. He is the most popular
democrat in the state Before his election
two years ago no democrat had been elected
! governor of Iowa in more than a quarter OF
a century. Iowa's republican majorities
were anywhere from 40. 900 to 5000.
There was a good deal of discomfort in
the state two years go. The republicans,
having been in power 81 long, suffered on
account of this discomfort, because they
were blamed for many things of which the
people complained. They hope that
this discomfort has to a great extent
disappeared. and that, therefore, they will
be able to regain control of the state. The
democrats are certain that it has not, how
ever, because it is largely due to the bur-
dens imposed by the high protective tariff.
Tho election will show, however, whether
it has or not. II the democrats are again
victorious Iowa can be counted upon safely
as a democratic state and placed in the
democratic column for 1892. That is the
1ldlu IctAoOu why tuC ilJ6I6Sb III Lu6 1OHd
election will be so great.
The platform of the democrats is much
like that of two years ago. 1t calls for the
free coinage of silver and q tariff for
revenue only. The main issue will be the
tariff, and the iniqultous Mckinley tariff
will have the full light of intelligent discus
sion turned upon it. It will be made clear
to the farmers that the chief reason their
farms are mortgaged and their incomes are
not sufficient to meet their expenses is that
the protection policy which the Republican
party has fastened upon the country forces
them to sell their products In the cheapest
markets and buy their supplies in the
dearest.
But the campaign will not be wholly be-
tween the Democratic and Republican
parties. The prohibitionists have nomi-
mated a full state ticket, and so has
the Peoples party. It is not be-
lieved that the prohibitionists will have
large vote, but there is considerable
speculation as to the strength of the Peoples
party. The impression at present is that
the latter party will not poll large vote.
Whether it will or not will depend largely
upon the efforts made by the Democratic
and Republican parties to win the support
Of those who are discontented with the old
parties. If they succeed in making the
campaign very exciting one the majority
of the disconnected will vote with the Demo-
cratic party, with which they affiliated in
1889, and there seems to be no doubt that
the campaign will be the most exciting one
in the history of the state.

A Born Matchmaker

| When Father Fahey, the Irish priest In charge
I Of the immigrants in Argentina. says Robert
Crawford's Travels thought that sufficient
means were forthcoming in any case to start
| housekeeping in a comfortable manner, some
such conversation as the following frequently
| took place between the priest and his sturdy
| of his wool:
II have been thinking. Pat. that you ought to
| get married"
lis it married your reverence says. Sure
where would see a girl to speak to while am
looking after the sheep all my timer
IF that's all the difficulty in your way, think
can IND wife for you. There's Biddy FIana-
gan in service with Mrs. Dash, in Buenos Ayres
as nice and modest girl as ever you laid eyes
on; slip away down and see her. and tell her
sent YOU"
Wouldn't next wool season be time
enough, your reverenceY''
Wool season indeed, Do you know what you
are talking about. Pat? Is it girl like Biddy
Flanagan that you would leave till next wool
season. Why. man alive She is just as likely
to be snapped up from under your very nose
while you're lettering down the street to see
her."
Maybe your reverence knows best" is the
reloinder, and away goes my brave Pat to make
the acquaintance OF Miss Biddy.
When he gets to Mrs. Dash's door his per-
plexities begin, and the hesitating knock with
which he announces his arrival indicates pretty
falrly the condition of his mind
The door is opened to him by girl whose
looks and bearing fully justify the clerical
enconiums passed upon her. The bashtul
wooer gives an approving glance but his words
don't keep pace with his admiration, and it is
some little time before he gets out what he has
to say. Biddy does not hurry him. but waits
his pleasure patiently. Most likely she has
heard before of visits of the kind paid to other
girls. and she is all attention At last Pat finds
his speech. and uses it in this wise
Are you Biddy Flanagan?n
Yes, is the reply.
Then" says the enamoured swain, going
bravely TO the heart of the matter at once a
am Pat Mulligan from one side of Chiviicoy and
Father Fahey sent me down to marry you
Get away with you Aren't you ashamed of
yourself, that take from the look of you, to be
an honest boy. coming here to make a fool of a
poor girl that has plenty to do without thinking
of marrying"
That is what Biddy says to him; but she does
not shut the door in his face. nor does he go
away, and, after a long chat, somehow or other
they arrive at an understanding. The result is
that Biddy, with considerable heightened color
in her comedy cheeks, seeks an interview with
her mistress, whom she informs, with much
hesitation and circumlocution, that there's
been boy speaking to her"
The mistress. however, not being Irish born
is somewhat puzzled by the expression, and
blddy has further 10 explain that she wants to
be allowed to go up and see the priest with the
said boy. Her mistress objection to the shcrt-
ness OF the notice are soon overcome BY Biddy's
tea and good looks, and off the bride~eiect
trips lightly. and soon afterward returns to
fetch away her things, for she is now Mrs. Pat
Mulligan.
