NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 5.-[Special. 1.-The
Duhne encampment of the Grand Army of
the Republic for Louisiana and Mississippi
will meet Saturday. 1t is the first meeting
held since the split in the G. A. R. The
encampment will be held under the auspices
of the negro posts, and nearly all the dele
gates will be negroes. 1t will demand that
the United States convert the old Marine
Hospital in this city into soldiers home
for colored veterans Of the war. There is
no Union veterans home south of Norfolk,
Va, and the colored G. A. r. Posts insist
that one be established here, as there are
1000 of the negroes in the Gulf States en-
titled to demand haven.
1t is estimated that the Marine Hospital
could be repaired and furnished SO as to ac-
commodate 1000 veterans at a cost of
5000. The demand will be presented by
the Louisiana and Mississippi delegates
before the National encampment to be held
in Washington next month.

lative to the recent announcement that
he was a candidate for denomination he
stated plainly that he was in no sense
seeking the honor oreven DESTROYS Of hay

hope, he said, was to be able toreturn to
New Ulm and the announcement that he
would accept the offer Of the party was
made only under peculiar circumstances
During his three terms of office he has
succeeded in giving satisfaction and ma
ny requests keep pouring in upon him,
almost demanding his consent to make
the race again. Then there are others
who have said that the Colonel was al
ways willing to accept of office as long
as the prospects of election were bright
butas so on as it meant work in the act of
securing an election he. was anxious
to step out. These last thrusts have
raised the Colonies mettle, and If he ac
cepts at all It will be chiefly TO prove
that he has no desires to be the party's
pet merely in times Of easy sailing.

cLARKsoN ON BLAINE AND HARRISON.


Col ClarksOn of Iowa, chairman of
the National Republican committee, is
in Washington. From numerous in
terViews we. extract the following as
the substance of his views on the Re
publican nominee for President:
Mr.. Clarkson has reached the conclu-
sion that President Harrison cannot be
reelected.
Mr.. Clarkson thinks Blaine could be
elected, but knows that Mr.. Blaine is
not able to do days work, and that
his life is likely to pay the penalty of
over eXertion or too much mental activ.
ity.
Mr.. Clarkson knows that Mr.. Blaine
is full of bitterness toward Harrison
for the latter's cavalierish treatment of
him and his family, and that Blaine
would like TO destroy Harrison. Blaine
is now struggling between two fears
the fear that if he does not take the
nomination himself Harrison will win,
and the fear that If he does take the
nomination the responsibility will soon
kill him.
Mr.. Clarkson would like to nominate
Gen. AlRer for president, but he con-
fesses that it is impossible. He would,
as second choice, like to nominate Sem
ator Allison, but he fears that is also
impossible. Up to this hour Clarkson
can see only one way of escape from the
dilemma, and that is to nominate
Blaine, put Rusk, Allison or Lincoln
one the ticket with him, and trust to

EX-CoNGREssMAN Horn Uf Michi-
gan, orator at large to the Republican
party, and special tariff contributor to
the New York Tribune, is responsible
for the following assertion: 1.-The tariff
is levied in the first place simply to
enable the people of the United States
to pay the high wages everywhere pre-.
vailing in this country. Now Major
Mckinley ought to be pretty good au-
thority, and he declared in his Proyi.
dence speech last month that mo one
ever claimed that protective tariffs

Probably the best authority is the facts
in the case, and they show that under
the highest tariff known in our history
wages are on the down grade. Mr.. l. T.

facturers of Troy, N. Y, in a recent
letter says:

leading industry in this country is very
dull, aud many failures in it are taking
