A TALKING ADMINISTRATIONS

The Harrison boomers are beginning to
talk. They feel that they have let the
other fellows have free field long enough.
Blaine is at last having plain notice
served on him to come into camp and
abandon the vain pretensions that seem to
lind lodging In the gray matter under his
6gurative plumes.
Afew days ago the president said to a
reporter that be was making no effort to
secure denomination and proposed to let
the convention act with perfect freedom
In the matter. This assertion has caused

the following passage: II do not hesitate
to say that certain things have happened
that feel deeply, especially when any one
has belittled some of the great public
measures which have been carried out, or

This Is Clearly a shot at Blaine, who has
arrogated to himself all the credit for
what good may be found by microscopic

talking. In later interview Attorney

the matter of Blaine's allowing his friends
to bring him into the race at this time.
He does not see how the secretary can suf.

strength of his letter, have attached them

A BUSINESS MATTER.

The assertion by a republican exchange
that the approaching struggle will be a
business campaign verges pretty closel y
upon the truth It will be very little indeed
short of that. The people will make it
their business to undo the unprofta-
bic accomplishments of past republican
congresses, and an admlnlstratl on
controlled by tire corporate influence
of which the Mckinley tariff is natural
product. 1t will also be the people 8
campaign, for never before in the history
of this country were the people as a whole
80 vitality interested in an election. The
tariff will be the issue and the fight will
be very much warmer than In 1888. Then
it was almost new fe ture in presidential
contests, but would have won at that time
except for an unfortunate leadership.
Since then the fight has been waged on
the same line in nearly all succeeding
state campaigns, and successfully exc pit in
Rhode Island, where Cleveland paralysis
was felt. This year we will witness a
grand struggle between the allied forces,
The democratic party will, of course
hold firmly to its stronghold that the tart ff
Is a tax; that while it was originally de-
signed to increase revenues, it has since
become the Legislative tool of monopoIists;
that it burdens the great army of produc-
ers for the benefit of favored few; that it
forces the western farmer to sell his grain
at Liverpool prices and buy his manufac-
tured goods at New York prices, the diff
ference going to the pockets OF protected
milhonaires. Tue elections in western
and northwestern states since the last
presidential campaign were quite sufficient
to show that the people of this country
are fast learning the true situation. 1t is
certain they will come to the front this
year on the same line to knock out the high
tariff and the republican party along with
1t, provided the party chooses an available
leader, an inherent democrat who relies on
his party for success and upon no element
which repels the loyal workers in the
ranks,
