Benny's Ozark Horse" Nightmare.

President Harrison would be willing
to see some of the Republican conven-
tions do little less in the indorsing way
of his administration if they would in
struct more delegates to vote for him at
Minneapolis. The New England states
and about all the larger and more in
fiuential ones will come without any as
surance that they will stand by Benja-
min. The bosses will all be there looking
eagerly for dark horse. The president
may well suspect that there is danger
for him in the situation. st. Paul Globe.

Usurper Bulkeley's Nerve,

We credit Senator Hawley with bet
ter sense of the fitness of things than
would be indicated by serious effort
on his part to bring forward Governor
Bulkeley, of Connecticut, for the second
place on the Republican national ticket.
The character Of Governor Bulkeley's
claim to his present Office is not such as
to commend him to the favorable con-
sideration of the country at large. A
holdover governor and a favorite son
are not synonymous terms. - Boston

A Tariff Lesson for BrOoklyn,

Brooklyn will expend about 81 900, 900

40 per cent. ad valorem. 1t is believed
that the citizens Of Brooklyn will pay
that tariff and that it will be recognized
as tax.-Kansas City Times.

Wrought up Over tho Homestead Riots
Mad All Through Because Carnegie
Permitted Them to Happen. ~
WASHINGTON, July 6.-The political
bearing of the Homestead labor riots
caused hurried consultation between
President Harrison and his political
advisers before his, departure from
Washington this afternoon. 1t is now
learned that the republican managers
express the most serious alarm over
the adverse sentiment which will be
created by the troubles with labor eau
sed by this greatest beneficiary Of the
Mckinley bill, the Carnegie steel COM
pany, in it's crusade against honest
wages.
In this connection it may be stated
that Secretary Tracy year ago gave
Carnegie contract to furnish 1000
600 worth of steel armor plate for the
navy. The contract was made quietly
without advertising for bids for work
which is in direct violation of the law.
No other firm was given chance, but
this great republican, Carnegie, was
given the contract outright by the re-
publican secretary of the navy.
Congress is SO mad over this that a
clause has been inserted in TIE naval
appropriation bill providing that the
next appropriation for arnaor plate
shall not be available unless the law
regulating advertising for bids is com
piled with.
Another bad feature of the contract
is that the price paid for the steel wa!
fixed at the same rate paid for stee
two years previously when prices were
much higher that at the time the Car
negie contract. 1t is said tonight thai
the republican managers feel very bit
ter towards Carnegie that he should
allow this trouble to happen at thi'
time. A republican congress has pro
tected his manufactures by heav,
tariff and republican congress ha
been good to him in cold cash con
tract; therefore they think he shoul'

that the country will overturn the high
tariff and he wants to make all he can
