POLITICAL NOTES,

Gen. John q. Black, the Commissioner Of
Pensions under President Cleveland proclaims
his belief that the ex- President will succeed
Gen. Harrison in 1892. lie thinks Cleveland
is immeasuTably the brightest man in the
United States to-day. and that he will be nom
mated and elected despite the efforts Of Eastern
bolters to the contrary. He does not think that
Senator David b. Hill and Tammany Will sup
port Mr.. Cleveland but the masses OF the people
are in his favor, and he thinks no clique from
New York or Maryland can dictate the nomi-
nation to the next Democratic National Con-
ventOn. lie will be nominated, Gen Black
thinks on platform Of Honesty and Reform,
and will stand again on the great issue of tariff
reform. He does not think Secretary Blaine
will be the Republican candidate.
The organization Of the Iowa State Senate Is
in doubt. The Republicans have 2l votes straight
and the outgoing Lieutenant Governor, who is
the presiding officer until the new organization
is effected, and the Democrats have D straight
votes There is one independent Labor VOTE
Senator Engle. Therefore Mr. EugIe holds the
balance Of power and both parties are working
with might and main TO secure his vote. Should
the Republicans make an agreement with him
they will control the organization, but if he
CO operates with the Democrats they will have
the power in the Senate. Both parties have
approached him, but Engle IS holding Off from
all complications The Senator has a pet LIQUOR
BILL one that makes the sale of intOxicants a
matter Of State control and profit instead Of
private business, and his arrangement with
either Republicans or Democrats if any is
made, will probably be on the basis OF the pass
age Of this bill. The Republicans have more
reason to be hopeful in this respect than the
Democrats. They might accept the bill in
question and vote for its passage, but the Dem
oeratic pledges made during tho campaign
make support of anything but a regular
high-license and local-option bill impossible
for them.
The Alliance State Convention of Georgia,
which met at Atlanta on Jan. /, 1892
elected six delegates To the st. Louis C0nVen-
tiOn. including Congressman Livingston, all Of
whom are opposed to the Third Party move

ers booked for the occasion are or. President
