HARRISON HIS CHOICE.
Field Marshal Murat Halstead on
Presidential Possibilities.
BlAINEs RETIREMENT FINAL.
The Present Administration Has Been
Strong and Clean and Has Impressed

NEW YORK, April 16.-Field Marshal
Murat Halstead talked on Presidential
possibilities at his rooms in the Claren-
don Hotel, Brooklyn, last night, and in
cidentally touched upon what he termed
the revolution In Jersey City and the late
election In Rhode Island. lie believed
that the signs of the times pointed to-
ward Harrison, and felt convinced that
Blaine's retirement was final.
"I haven't seen anything" he said,
that leads me to believe that there would
be serious opposition to President Harri-
sons denomination. Everything Is going
his way. We hear Of Mr.. Platt, Mr..

President Harrison, but there seems TO be
pothing consecutive or executive.
Mr.. Allison is not a Candidate. The
same may be said of Sherman aud the
same of Robert Il. Lincoln. Mckinley Of
Ohio would be q formidable candidate,
but am not Of the opinion that 1t Is his
year to run or that he thinks il is.
The administration of President Harri.
son has very much impressed the country.
and very favorably impressed it, 1 think
he has now precisely the reputation upon
which he could carry New York. His ad
ministration has been extraordinarily
strong and clean. He has shown the
highest order of ability, not only in his
speeches across the continent, but in his
State papers and executive work. And
. he has nerve. He has all sorts of courage
moral, physical and intellectual couw-
age.
There isn't a braver man that walks on
the ground than Harrison. People who
fancy that Presbyterian won't fight are
not well read in history. Some OF the
Harrisons had faults in abundance, but
none of them wouldn't fight. whichever
way came handiest was born within
twenty miles of where Harrison was born.
know what to say. / knew President
Harrison as long ago as 1S47. There is
the material In the man and in his admin
istration to make a great candidate-far
greater a second time than the first time.
THE Democrats have really nothing to
say. They bave not dared to meet the
Republicans squarely on the tariff issue.
the money issue or anything else. They
have no tariff policy and no money policy.
Cleveland does not come within thou
sand miles of telling us what reform is.
The fact is he does not know. 1t is one Of
