IN THE POLITICAL FIELD.

II was expected that the members OF the new Re-
publican state Committee would meet 10 organize this
week. but this is not likely be DONE for reasons
that good TO the party leaders. 1t is possible
and probable that meeting for this purpose VIII DC
held until after the Minneapolis convention.
Governor Flower Of Ncw-Y0rk and Governor NC
Klncy OF ohio held an informal reception on saturday
morning in the corridors OF the Windsor Hotel. IL
was purely chance meeting. Mr.. Mckinley came
on from ohio TO consult New York physicians about
Mrs. Mckinley. who has been invalid for years
Mr.. Flower came down from Albany to consult city
officials about OF the bills that are before MN.
Tho two leaders were In Congress together and server
on the committee that reported the tariff BILL wnch
has made the Ohio Governors name a familiar In Inc
Old World rs IL Is on his native heath. Though op'
posed TO each other in politics. and that bitterly On
amOs; every point. the two Governors are warm per
,onal friends and II they should meet the standard
bearers OF their sectve parties in National con-
test there would be personal filings INDUCED III py
either Sid". Thoughts OF such possible future neeuhg
undoubtedly flashed through the minds Of both men re
TO give expression to this eniicing mental VISION
They became dumb oysters Whenever the question
WAS preached.
Each took his own way Of parrylng the pleasing
stroke Mr.. Flower laughed of the question, but Mr.
Mckinley apscd into solemn silence, as If the matter
were not one even TO smile about. lie declared himself
to be in favor Of President IIarriSons denomination IN
fact lie looked upon it inevitable Mr. Blaine WAS
ont OF the race. and much he admired senator sher
man. he had nothing about his candidacy for the
| Presidency. Exspeakcr Reed, he thought. wns mot
well enough known yet to the country TO be considered
as formidable competitor Of President Harrison In
brief the Governor holds that. notwth'tanding PAST
lnarres OF The political chiefs me rIy5dem, Is nG
personal gIieya. he added will disappear in n
National contest" The Governor expects to return 10
Ohio to day.
| Mr. Flower was doubtless somewhat disappointed
| at Mr. McKlnlcy's opinion on the availability
| Of Democratic candidates. He evidently feels
| that, after Cleveland and Hill. he Is tho
strongest man. but Mr. Mckinley does not share
this view. Governor Pattison. Of PENNSYLVANIA. he
holds, wond make n better fight than Flower. Hi.
whitney, Cleveland anyone else. This verdict
was received In silence by Mr.. Flower. who straight
way fell 10 discussing the IIuchlcbery bill and
| various other measures that he inflicted upon this
municipality Apparently the Governors boom Is
| not initiating rapidly he would like TO see IT..
Even the knowledge of his unappcd barrels does not
console him. for the shadow Of stu richer and z
| far stronger man Is ever before him-Wiilam Z.
