Eureka The NEWS has found the
explanation. The Journal snubs Cleve-

Fifty years hence-the Dorr war cen
tennial-will not the present state OF
suffrage in Rhode Island be looked back
upon as crude--almost tbarbarous?-Paw-
tucket Tribune.
Probably not. Why?
Chairman Clarkson says he is for the
candidate who will win. In that case the
lowan should waste no time at Minneap-
oils, but go direct 70 Chicago and shout
for the nominee of the national democ-
racy.-Boston Globe.
Behold here the difference between
the Globe and the World of New York.
The latter says the Chicago convention
might as well not meet.
The anti-Harrison men assume to be-

assume to believe that Blaine will not

Reporter.
And here we are. IL is all right. Mr.

What do young men here say about it?
According to present indications Mr.
Cleveland's chances at Chicago are quite
as good as Mr. Harrison's chances at Min
neapolis. Bedford Journal,
There is, however. this difference.
Mr.. Harrison will get an election If he
gets a nomination; Mr.. Cleveland won't.
Regarding the story that Gov. Flower
is being seriously groomed as dark
horse, to take the track when Cleveland
and Hill have been barred out, the New
York Tribune remarks that the story and
Gov. Flowers head are aiike-'there's
nothing in it. ."-Sprngfield Union.
Here's tip that will prove as valua-
bic, at least, as the recent tips on Long

in the Chicago convention, but not one of
these could carry his own State i'm the
