AN editor in the northern part Of the
State who doesn't wish to pose as a
prophet, said that the outlook on Satur-
day was that David S. Baker would
receive more votes than ID. Russell
Brown on April 4. The editor need not
lose any sleep. He will neither be taken
for prophet nor a sensible, level
headed man, but rather as purveyor of
unreliable clap-trap observations, hardly
suitable for the intelligent community
in which he resides, if this is q sample
OF his predictions.

The Democracy proposes if success
ful in the coming election to send "a
resident Of Rhode Island, interested in
Rhode Islands welfare, and capable Of
advancing Rhode Islands interests in
the National Senate" and the Demo-
cracy's list Of candidates includes
Colonel s. Rump Honey, DIR. Garrulous
Garvin, Huge j. Carroll and one Van
Allen of the campaign fund fame.
Even PETER would feel insulted by the
selection of either. Rhode Island has
too big an interest at stake to send any
freak to the Senate this year.

CONGRESS- AND THE CANAL
Grave Fears That England Will Get
Control Of II.

Friends of the Bill Looking to Govern
mental Control by the United States
Confident That the Bill Will Pass,
but Afraid the Canal Company Will
Sell Out to England-Speaker Crisp
Against the Bill.
Washington, July 26.-The friends of
the Nicaragua canal bill in the House
are somewhat exercised to-day at the in
formation which reaches Washington
from New York that Messrs. Bartlett
and Weed of the reorganization commit
tee OF the Nicaragua Canal Company,
have sailed for Europe to consider the
offer of certain English capitalists, who
have agreed to furnish the money to com
plete the canal.
The bill, which looks to governmental
control of the canal, is now on the House
calendar. 1t was unanimously reported
by the commerce committee, and it is the
result of several weeks of careful con-
sideration at the hands of a special com
mittee to whom the work of drafting the
bill was delegated.
While the bill will, if it comes before
the House, provoke some opposition and
the discussion upon II may extend several
days, it is believed by the gentlemen hav-
ing it in charge that it will pass by a
good round majority.
CRISP AGAINST THE BILL.
The committee on rules, however, have
declined TO set aside time for its consid-
GRAFTON, and Speaker Crisp is reported as
saying that he is unfavorable to the prop
ositiOn.
The argument is made by the speaker, it
is said, that the condition of the national
finances is such that the United States
government cannot, at this time, assume
the responsibility of guaranteeing the
10000, 900 of bonds necessary to construct
the canal. To this the friends of the bill
reply that the bonds will not mature
until 1925, thirty-one years hence.
On the other hand the commercial,
political and military advantages, they
say, which would result from govern
mental ownership of the canal, can
scarcely be overestimated.
There is, apparently, no probability, un-
less the session should be indefinitely pro-
lOnged, that the bill can be considered at
present, and the fear is general that dur
ing the interim the company will sell
their concession to private parties in
England, acting in reality for the British
government, and that as result of our
inaction the canal will pass from our
hands into the control of the English gov
ernment

oEoRaIA's REPUBLICANS.
No State Ticket to Be Put Out and no
Aid to Be Given the Populists.

Atlanta. Ga, July 26.-At its recent
meeting the republican state executive
committee issued a call for a state con
vention to be held on Aug. % for the pur-
pose of placing a ticket il the field for al l
the state Offices.
Developments that have lust come out
through local republican leaders here,
and they largely represent the party in
Georgia, indicate almost to a certainty
that there will he no republican ticket
put out by the convention of Aug. %.
A. @. Buck, the big boss of the party,
is uD in Maine, and will not return to
Georgia before fall Buck wanted TO put
a ticket in the field, doubtless in order to
help himself with the next administra-
tion, If it should happen to be republican,
but his absence on account of sickness
has allowed those who do not want a
ticket to get in their work. They have
done this so effectually that several of
Bucks best lieutenauts have been won
over to the idea that it would not be a
good move TO put out a ticket. Hence
when the convention meets, if in
deed it is not called off entirely,
it will, in all probability, do
nothing toward naming candidates. Re
publicans here say they could get any one
of half a dozen good men to head
ticket, If they wanted TO put one out
A FIGHT on HINES
In connection with this condition of af-
fairs with regard to the republican con-
vention it has developed that a pretty
sharp fight is to be waged by
very large element in the party
against Judge Hines and his popu-
list colleagues, including Watson. in his
congressional race in the Tenth district.
Bucks influence is behind this fight.
Two years ago the populists and repub-
licans openly affiliated through Bucks
Vaccinations. He was staunch friend
of Col. w. L. Peek. Wnen Peek found
how severely he had been drubbed by
the democracy he got mad and sent word
to Buck that he and his crowd We're
responsible. Col. Peek gave Buck to un-
derstand that the populists were floa-
bitten because they had been lying down
in the republican walow. OF course,
Buck got mad, and his purpose in seek
ing to have a republican ticket in the
field this year was to draw off
the negro vote from the popu-
lists. Watson is also under Bucks
ban because he accused the afiliation
with the republicans of having defeated
him. AS a result he viii not get many
republican votes again, and naturally ne
will be defeated by bigger majority
than two years ago. 1t is highly proba-
bic that the sentiment that is being
worked up among some of the republican
leaders against putting out state ticket
is due to the efforts of Judge Hines, Wat
son and the populist leaders, who hope to
get the republican vote again.
