ONE of the most hopeful outlooks OF
the political situation in both parties is
that the voice of the substantial ele.
ment of the parties is for good. reliable
men, rather than smart political trad.
ers or, as they are aptly designated,
'roosters." There is q growing senti-
ment in the warp and woof of both
parties as was exhibited at Minneapo-
lis in the one instance and is being
fought out in New York in the other,
that they would rather be beat
en- with a good man, than be success
ful with bad one.
That the President is regarded as a
clean. safe man, will be evident from
the following extract from the New
York Times. strong Cleveland paper
President Harrison deserved a re.
nomination at the hands of his party.
he is an upright and self-respeeting
man. he has been good President.
If not entirely free from those official
scandals that watchful political foes
delight to expose and exploit, his ad-
ministratiOn has at any rate been suf-
fciently pure and digni6ed to com
mand the confidence Of the country.
He las compelled the American peO-
pie to recognize the fact that be Is an
able mana circumstance that through
want of attention on their part, or lack
Of opportunity on his, had escaped
general notice. II there be any virtue
ia the rule or tradition that a success
ful President must be Fenominated by
his party, then beyond question it had
20 be applied. ia the case of Benjamin
Harrison.
Extracts might be made from others
of a similar tone. some finding fault
with the principles Of the party, but no
one abusing the personal character Of
the nominee. IL is to be hoped that in
the case of all the candidates, their
characters will be lost in the principles
they espOuse.

rHE new POET LAuREArH.

Probably Lewis Morris . Third. Class
Rhymester-Othsrs Too Democratic.
LONDON. Oct. 8-The question as to who
will succeed Tennyson a. poet laureate is
argued from all points Of discussion in
literary, social and political circles. It is
not thought by Swinburne's friends that
he would accept it. and his early demo-
cratic lyrics seem to bar the way. After
him William Morris, the "poet-artisan,"
is the ablest versifier in the country, but
he is socialist, and 50 is out of the race.
This leaves the real aspirants Lewis
Morris. Sir Edwin Arnold, Alfred Austin
and Robert Buchanan. The first-named
is the most likely candidate, for Arnold
has faint of heresy, Buchanan is oc-
casionally cratic in his views, and Alfred
Austin is scarcely up to the mark.
Lewis Morris as q candidate for the
laureateship is blameless. His poetical
works bear q general air of responsibility.
He wrote "Songs OF Great Britain" now
in the third edition, embodying odes on
the queens jubilee and on the Imperial
Institute, the latter of which he wrote by
request, owing to the illness Of Tennyson.
For this he received the jubilee medal from
the queen. As a man and verse writer he
has much to commend him to the court.
Good English critics place him on . par
with Upper.
