EX.PrcSidcnt Harrison says He Will
Not Rnn Again.

CINCINNATI, Ohio, May 2.-Ex-Prc-
sidcnt Harrison, who is in the city at
tending the annual session of the
Loyal Legion, today denied rcsponsi-
bility for the publication as to his can
didacy in 1896. He did not believe
Mr.. II. $. New had been correctly
quoted. He reiterated his oft-rc-
pcatcd statement that he was not talk
ing about or thinking of the next Pre-
sidcncy, and that most certainly no
one had been authorized to act or
speak for him on the subject.
The cX-Prcsidcnt said that in the
future he expected "to have his say .
on political matters, as he saw no
reason for IN cX-Prcsidcnt becoming q
mummy. He had as much right to an
opinion and to express it after leaving
the White House as before In doing
SO he would refrain from personalities

General New, weighing his word.
with the utmost dclibcrntion and en-
phasis, continued, The Post says:
You can state as coming from mt

CRISP FOR PRESIDENT.
Ex-senator Iidmunds Says He ia the
Logical Democratic Candidate.

The Philadelphia Times publishes an
interview with ex-senator Edmunds
OF Vermont, and regarding the outlook
i'll national politics he spoke as follows:
| think there are sixty chances in
one hundred that the Republicans will
elect the next President and control
the next House Of Representatives, al
though this is very hard to do because
of the South's being kept solidiy Demo-
cratic by traditions which cannot DO
changed ny living issues. The only
chance for the Democrats is the posi-
bic return of prosperity before the
next election, a possibility which is not
at a probability"
do you think that the Democrats
are responsible for the hard times ?"
Yes; in large measure manufac-
turcrs have been afraid that the free
trade plank OF the Chicago platform
would be carried and that would have
meant ruin to many interests. In ad
hltlon the iinancicrS and mOncycd in
stitutions have been afraid "f lc"isla-
tion which would further Il, - tho
currency. True, the Wilson bill is far
from being u fuliillmcnt Of the tariff
pledges made in the Chicago platform,
but it has made such sweeping rcduc-
tions in certain departments that its
passage means the ruin Of many indus
tries
"Of late years a great deal has been
said Of logical candidates. Whom do
you think is the logical candidate for
President of the Democrats 2"
Well, Mr.. Crisp is Il logical candi-
| date and he is in able man, who would
| mako good President. No. do not
think that it would be impossible to
! elect Il President from the South,
granting that the Democrats could
| elect Pl ,sidcnt.'
| There are no very serious Obsta-
! clcs, think The men who from their
positions would under ordinary circum-
stances be considered the stron can
| didatcs Of the North and East ought
now to be considered impossi Utilities. as
they represent factions, and not the
whole of their party. Mr.. Crisp has
not been engaged in any factional
light"
"Howcvcr, it is difficult at this
early day TO say who will be nomi-
mated, n one can tell what an hour
may bring orth.'

A GREAT TARIFIN VICTORY.
"A Democratic Congressman Elected
From McKinlcy's old District.

HAMILTON, Ohio, May 3.-Paul j
Sorg, the Democratic candidate for the
vacancy in the third Congressional dis
trict caused by the death of Congress-
man George w. Hoult, has been elect
ed over E. G.. Rahtbone, Harrison's
fourth assistant postmaster general.
After campaign in which the tar
i'll was the issue the district has gone
for tariff reform by from 1900 to 5000
This in the home of McKinlcyism, and
in spite of the fact that Mckinley him
self carried the district last fall bv
about six hundred.
The solo issue raised was that OF the
tariff, the Wilson bill, as it passed the
House. Very rarely has campaign
so bitterly fought been SO free from
personalities.
The only considerable influence on
the election outside OF the tariff issue
was that of the a. p. A. This was
thrown against Mr.. Sorg, so that it
makes tho victory of tariff reform
greater than appears in the returns.
Ex-Consul Joseph B. Hughes, OF
Hamilton, estimates that Sorg's ma
jority in the third district will be 1000
The city of Dayton gives Sorg 06 ma
jority. 1t gave Mckinley 46l majority
last fall. McKinley's plurality in the
whole district was 565.

GENERAL COXEY'S MANIFESTO.
The Aims and Purposes of the Com
monNcal Organization.

General Jacob S. Coxey's great
demonstration on behalf of the Com
monweal of Christ" in favor of good
roads and the reputation of national
obligations to pay interest on bonds in
gold, ended last week in Il ridiculous
tiasco at. Washington. The army"
had been marching for weeks and
reached tho national capital with II
force of six hundred. Coxcy and his
lieutenants made grand display in
marshalling the hosts on Pennsy ylvania
avenue, and marching with great
pomp to the capitol grounds, where
they were arrested by the police for
violating the law against such demon
strations in the district of Columbia.
General Coxcy, Chief Marshal Browne
and Christopher Columbus Jones were
brought before the police court under
charges and released on bond.
General Coxey subsequently issued a
manifesto giving tho aims and pur-
| poses of his movement, the main points
being as follows:
"The great cry that we hear all over
this land today is, how can you relieve
the distress of the unemployed Not
only the workingmen, but the employ
ers of labor as well, are going through
| a life and death struggle to keep the
sheriff away from their doors.
"While the opinion may be that the
distress of the laborer is greatest on ac-
count of being unable to dispense of
his labor to get money to purchase the
necessaries of life, yet the mental
| agony of the business man Is as great,
if not greater, than that of the starv-
| ing workingman. How can you inn

tho business man dreading for morning

| sheriff will como to close up his bust

brought about through the financial
! system that we are acting under. ~
year ago we had in circulation | billion
of dollars in actual money One billion
of dollars was in the hands of the peO-
pie, making the small exchanges and
500 million dollars was in the banks as
reserves, and upon these reserves tho
banks had created 4 billion dollars Of
confidence money, or $S confidence
money to every dollar Of actual money
that they had in the banks as reserves
to redeem or pay the SO with.
This confidence money was created
by the discounting OF notes. The busi-
ness men manufacturing their pro-
ducts, and selling them on from one to

four months time, then'bringing these
notes, endorsing them and depositing
them in the banks and checking against
them Now, the banks had created
4OO millions of confidence money, max
ing the exchanges of the business men
just the same as the actual money, on
the exchanges of the people. When
the panic came on, which was created
by England throwing securities upon
our market, converting these securities
into gold and then withdrawing the
gold out OF the country, and at the
same time tho press of the country
getting up an agitation for tho purpose
of having the Sherman bill repealed,
claiming that if the government did
not cease the further purchase of sill
yer that 1T would drive gold out of the
country, they succeeded in creating
the fear in the minds of the small de-
positors, and the latter commenced to
Withdraw them out of the banks, and
when the manufacturers, the employ
ers of the very employees that had
Withdrawn their deposits from the
banks, went to the banks to get their
paper discounted. the cashier said
" am sorry that self-prescrvaiou, be-
ing the law OF nature, cannot discount
your paper" There was no use of him
applying to any other bank, because
the condition was tho same every
where. The result was, he not being
able to get his paper discounted, could
not get the money topay his employees,
and must necessarily close down his
works, which resulted in throwing four
millions of idle ard unemployed men
upon tho country.
Now, there is one way to change
this condition, that is by inaugurating
a public improvement system and
issue the money direct from the gov
ernment, which shall be Il full legal
tender for all debts. and employ these
men in making these public improve
ments, and pay the money direct to
them without the intervention OF
banks, or the necessity of paying in
tcrcst upon this money. Then it gets
into circulation. This will set all the
idle and unemployed to work immcCli-
ately, giving them a purchasing pow
cr, thus enabling thom to go into the
grocery store, the clothing store, aud
boot and shoe store and buy the neccs-
saries of life, clothing their families
in dccency, and having the money to
pay for it with, which will create
great demand for tho nccessaries Of
life. Prices of necessities will then go
up because of the greater demand for
the goods which will enable the mer-
chants to dispose of their stock at Il
profit, giving them chance to pay
their debts, instead of allowing the
sheriff to close them out"

The trap was sprung at LAO and he
died by strangu,ation in seven minu-
ties. This ended the last chapter of a
fearful crime, AMI the strong proof Of
his guilt causes everyone to believe
that the right man has atoned for it.
In the summer of 1889 the body of
Isaac Wilson was found on the railroad
one mile from the city, having been
run over by the train and horribly mu-
tilatcd. No clue was found to any
crime until in the fall Of 1892, when
Nose Fair and Andy Walker were ar
rested and charged with his murder.
The first was mistrial. The second
resulted in conviction and they were
sentenced to death. An appeal was
made to the Supreme Court, the dccis-
ION was sustained and returned to the
circuit court for rcScntcncc.
The evidence brought out the fact
that Isaac Wilson was shot in IL gamb-
ling house by Nose Fair, his head al
most severed with an axe, and the
body then carried to the railroad track,
whore it was crushed by the train.
Andy Walker assisted in removing
the body to the railroad track, and
upon the evidence and confession of
Nose Fair that he alone committed
the murder, Andy's sentence was com
muted.
