Especial Correspondence
NEW YORK, March 29.-Among my
caller the day before he returned to Eng
land was the famous editor and writer,
W. T. Stead, who has recently stirred
up Chicago as he did London several
years ago. He is a friend and fellow la
borer of mine in the inyestl cation of
occult phenomena-a man who in spite
Of certain eccentricities of mind and
habit is sincere and conscientious in
whatever he undertakes.
AS journalist of wide experience
and culture Mr.. Stead refused TO recog-
nize any breach of courtesy TO a guest in
my anxiety to have him furnish fe
thoughts for publication AS the daily
newspapers have devoted considerable
space TO his social and economic views,
l felt that a few remarks ON certain
other subjects which the reformer sell
dom discusses in public would prove of
peculiar interest
After announcing impatiently that he
had but a few minutes to stay Mr.. Stead
talked most Interestingly on variety
of topics for over an hour, his remarks
being frequently punctuated by the
statement, Il must prepare to sail at
daybrealx tomorrow for England
What popularity of American life
impressed you most?" 1 asked.
Your methods Of municipal govern
ment,'' was the reply. 81 like the
American people much better than their
institutions. Even your system of ma
tional government is complex and I'M
wieldy-a result of too great a subdi-
vision of responsibility. The will Of the
people is but slowly executed, and it
but seldom receives accurate or timely
expression The government of your
large cities is disgraceful, extrayagant
and in most cases corrupt. In Chicago
especially are these conditions rampant.
My forthcoming book on that great city
will contain some revelations which,
L trust, will shock not only her own
good people, but those of other American
cities, into a cultivation of civic pride .

Spain seems to be reasserting herself
and trying to push forward once more
into the front rank of nations. There is
no good reason why she might not revive
some measure of her ancient glory If
only she would permit the spirit of prog
ress that formerly animated her people
to reassert itself. That spirit is by no
means dead, but merely hanpered by
the thralls of an outgrown philosophy,
and recent years have brought forth
many signs that the bonds were being
burst asunder. There has never been
any doubt of Spain's ambition, but her
methods were Anticipated and slow, and
she lost. her prominence in the CONNER

SYMPATHY FOR TILLMAN.
Governor Waite Adrnires the South Car
DINA Governors Actions.

DENVER, April 3.--Governor Waite
expresses great admiration for Governor
Tillman of South Carolina. He said to-
day:
Il met him at the bimetallic conven-
ton in St. Louis, and I was much i'm
pressed with his strength of character.
1t is my impression that if nypody can
enforce that law down there, which is
all the governor is trying to do, Tillman
is just the man to do it
aYou see he is placed in much the
same position that l am. The aristocra-
cy Of South Carolina is against him and
the people are with him. There is this
difference, his soldiers have refused to
obey him and ours have not But l
think he will enforce the law if it can be
done by anybody.

SENATOR CULLoM, of Illinois, is
a candidate for reelection to the
senate. He is not afraid to have
the Republican party of the State
pass upon his candidacy. Here is
what he says:
I have no desire to urge nomin-
alton by the State convention, though
I have always believed that the plan
followed in 1858, when Mr.. Lincoln was
candidate before the people, was the
most desirable. It seemed to me then
and has always appeared to me since
that such a campaign more nearly ex-
pressed the wishes of the people and
removed the election of a senator
farther from party leaders and from
political bossism. I believe that plar
even now would have its advantages
and, while do not urge it and have
not urged it upon anybody, I admi
that it would be quite satisfactory t.
me. Whether it would result in my
nomination or not do not profess tt
say or to know. - ft....n.. s.sle

Of Mr.. >Washburn's supporters
we opposed him in the Republi-
can Legislative caucus in 1889.
Since his election to the senate we
have had occasion to write him in
behalf of scores of people on mat
tiers relating to pensions, post Of
fee routes, and homestead and
pre-emption claims, and in every
instance received a prompt and
satisfactory reply. It was mainly
through the exertions Of Senator
Washburn that the 300 settlers in
the former Mile Laos reservation
were permitted to perfect the title
to their homesteads. Although
we are not one of Mr.. Washburn's
admirers we believe in giving
credit where credit is due. What
Minnesota interest has he neg.

The ''threatened outbreak" of
the Mile Laos Indians exists only
in the vivid imagination of re-
porters hard up for sensational
item. There is not the least dan
ger Of an uprising. The govern
ment should insist upon the re-
moval of the Mile Laos Indians to
White Earth. We're it not for in
termeddling mercenary whites the
Indians would have gone there
long ago. We. believe Chairman
Campbell and the other members
of the Chippewa commission are
doing what they can to induce the
Indians to remove to White Earth.
and we believe the commissioners
will eventually succeed in remov
ing them. In the meantime the
settlers must exercise considerable
patience and get along as best they
can with the pilfering redskins.

WILL Cleveland yield to the
Wall street influence and veto the
Bland bill? The Democratic Gin
cinnati Enquirer gives its reasons
for believing that he will veto it.
The question is asked, when did he
ever run counter to Wall streets
wishes? In 1884 he was elected on a
free coinage platform, and even before
he was inaugurated they caused him to
write letter to congress demanding
the repeal of the Bland Allison bill.
They had contributed, to his nomina-
ton at the time, and all through the
first administration controlled the pol
icy of the treasury department.. In
1888 they again favored his nomination,
and when he was beaten running on
platform that evaded the silver issue,
he was welcomed back to Wall street
with open arms, love and kisses that
would move an anchOrite. All sorts Of
help was given him by the money
power in the acquisition of fortune
The same element furnished the pabu
lum to the anti-snapper convention Of
1892, and put up freely to shape the
work of the national convention a
Chicago. Once more they secured
their man, though they had to accep
a free coinage platform, to be repu
dated at the proper time under thei
dictum. Up to this time they have
had full sway; the Reputation of thu
Chicago platform, the repeal of thu
Sherman act, the payment of gold upo1
coin notes of 1890 at the demand of thu
foreign brokers' and the issue of $50,
100000 of gold bonds as an entering
wedge for future additions to tn
bonded debt and the power of the ma
| tiOnal banks.
