Judge Estee Positive That All the States
There Will Vote Right
New York, June e0.-[SpeciaL] III am salts
fed that Harrison and Reid can carry all the
Pacific Coasts States," said Judge Morris NJ.
Estee, of California, to-day, to o reporter at
the Fifth Avenue Hotel. The judge was
Chairman of the Republican National Con-
vention in 1888, and was the orator OF the
committee which notified General Harrf-
son of his nomination. He said he ex-
pected to leave for home to-day, and he
knew he would find Just as many Republt-
cans when he arrived as when he left Min
neapolis.
"Tlien the Republicans are not in the
least disgruntled in Californian"
mo, they are all good Republicans and
will support the ticket. They are not
against the President, even If the delegates
Old not vote !or him for denomination.
When he came throu h California he M de
the country his ability to deliver splendid
speeches. There is no fight in the Repub-
lfcan ranks; the nomination at Minneapolis
healed all differences as to candidates. and
the duty of every Republican is to support
the ticket and believe in the grand princi-
pies OF the party"
"What about the Western silver StatesT"
"They will give, in my opinion, the normal
nominate man who Is opposed to free coin
age, and there will be no doubt about the
Republicinism of the silver States. Califor-
tated over this subject of silver. with two
candidates opposed to free silver I don't
think the question will come up much in
the campaign. The Republicans will stand
for projection, reciprocity and honest
money; in the West we shall advocate tue
Nicaragua canal, because we believe its
completion will add great deal to the pros
perity OF the Pacific coast. We need q
for all of our many products.
The Republican party has been progressive.
and has done more for the expansion and
cratic party. Even If Republicans were dis
gruntled, which they are not, they would
not care to vote for non-progressivepa party
like the Democratic. 1t is impossible for
future OF the West The railroads have
brought the two sections closer together,
but when the Nicaragua Canal is finished
new era in the development of the West will
begin. Certainty no one expects great things
from the Democratic party"
Then you predict success for the Repub-
Gcan ticket?"
.'Yes, do, as far as the West is concerned,
because believe the Republicans will do
their duty. ] don't live in the East and of
course am not prepared to speak for the
people. The people In the West are GER
tafnly not for free trade, and they will not
vote ior II ticket thaJ suands for the Golden
theory. The President has consistently up
held the principles OF the Republican
National platform and no fault can be found
with him for SO doing. l am no prophet,
but wish to go on record as being opUimis-
tic and opposed to any sulking IntenGS. The
thin is to be up and doing-in fact, to be
aggressive.n
The judge had something to say about the
Ha waiian Islands. He thought the California
people paid little attention to the question
of annexing the islands. The islands had
only few hundred Thousand inha bitants,
all told, and what they wanted WAS sugar to
come int this country free or duty. and per-
haps be classed in the bounty list as Amcri-
can sugar producers.
