FOR THE PRESIDENCY
THE NAME OF SENATOR ALLISON
IS MENTIONED.
MIR. Wilson Arrives in London, and
in an Interview Said the Repuli-
cans May Nominate Mr.. Allison
Mr.. Cleveland Not n Candidate.

London, Sept. ia representative
Of the Associated Press had an inter-
view to-day with Mr. Wilson, the
distinguished congressman from West
Virginia, whose tariff measure has
attracted so much attention in Eu-
rope. Mr.. Wilson said that his trip
across the Atlantic had greatly i'm
proved his health. Unless his pro-
gramme is changed Mr.. Wilson will
sail for home Sept. 20. Referring to
the recent election in the State of
Maine, the gentleman from West Vir-
sima said that he did not consider the
Republican victory as a pronounced
criticism Of the tariff legislation of
congress. According to Mr.. Wilson,
some Of the Democrats Of Maine are
temporarily angered at certain tariff
reductions, especially at the reduction
OF the duty on lumber. But, he added,
Mainc's situation previous prevents
that state from being an index Of the
political currents of the United States.
Mr. Wilson decidedly stated that
President Cleveland had no thoughts
Of again being Il candidate for the
presidency. AIessrs. Reed and Nc
kinley were, in his opinion, candidates
for the Republican nomination, but
he thought the Republican party
would probably select a tariff con-
seryative like Allison. The United
States, Mr.. Wilson also said, would
never revert to "McKinleyism" nor
to blind, greedy, selfish protection.
The tariff will not be attacked, and
when congress meets its errors, which
are in detail only, will be corrected.

port the Republican nominee. In re-
gard to the tariff he said:
I'm England the tariff was the one
absorbing topic before the Wilson bill

ENACTMENT of the measure demonstrate
how dependent the industries and
business Of the old world is upon the
trade with the new. Our commercial
depression has found, its counterpart
OH the other side. The trade Of ma
tions has not vet adjusted to the in
Stanteous inter communication which
virtually makes all the world one
market. Differences in cost Of raw
inextricably jumbled and confused and
tariff laws and revenue restrictions
have not wholly solved the problem.
Unless we can protect ourselves in
some way, the cheapest section Of
this market will govern every part of
it. 1t is not a CHASTITY conceit, but a
serious question for the stae1nan and
economist, if the people of China Or
India, who will work for cents q
day and can live on three, are to sup
ply the manufacturer Of the future.
Since the tariff question was settled,
there has been wonderful revival Of
business, both in England and on
the continent. The situation is not
materially different from what it was

Duluth, Mimi. Sept. 15.-The gold

day in free gold and more than as
much i'll concentrates since work was
resumed after the mills breakdown,
three weeks ago. Two bricks, worth
$4,000, were brought to Duluth and
depe sited in bank yesterday afternoon.
The mill is working under disad-
1antages, as its supply Of fuel is only
green wood, and steam to operate the
stamps cannot be kept up steadily
enough. The little American people
think they have the largest gold prop
erty in the United States, considering
the extent Of the pay ore. But they
are only down fifty-eight feet in ore,
and have SO far done but small
amount of drifting and chambering.

ALABAMA AND THE SENATE.

The New York World advises the Senate to throw in the waste basket the Alleu res- olution for the investigation of the Ala bama State election. It boldly and truth fully says:
 There is no possible doubt that the govern- ment of Alabama is republican in form, and there is therefore no possible excuse for a Senatorial inquiry on that point. Senator Allen knows this well enough, and he ought to be candid enough to acknowledge that what be really wishes to get at is not q question of form, but of fact.
 Under the constitution the Senate cannot interfere In the local politics of Alabama un- less The form of the state government ceases to be republican. And since this cannot be challenged Mir. Allen can hardly cite as justi- fication for interfering the charge that there was q heavy white majority against Oates which was overcome by stutiing into the bal lot boxes the uncast votes of thousands of ne- groes in the Black Belt.
 Even if every intelligent citizen of Alabama is convinced that this was done to elect Oates Governor, it is not the business of the United States Senate. The people of Alabama are able 10 take care of their own affairs. The ap- peal from fraud committed against them in a Etate election lies to them and to them only Ii is safe to trust them to vindicate their hon. esty and their right to self government.

THE OLD, OLD STORY.
Love Overcomes Parental Objections. Marriage of Birmingham
 Girl in Nashville.

Two young people, both we'll known in Birmingham, were married in Nashville. Tenn, yesterday morning. They were Miss Margaret Patton, daughter of MT. and Mrs. J. H. Patton, and Mir. Charles H. King, until recently resident of Bir- mingham.
 They had been loving each other for long time, it is said, but parental objec- tions prevented an earlier realization of their hopes. Several months ago MT. King removed to Louisville, Ky, where he is now engaged in business, but dis tance did not alter their affections and an elopement was planned.
 Mir. King came to Birmipgham a few days ago, and together ith as intended bride and one or two other friends be left on the north bound Louisville and Nashville train at midnight. Monday night. They went through to Nashville and there had the marriage ceremony performed.
 The bride is a pretty brunette and has hosts of friends in Birmingham, who wish her every happiness. The groom also has many friends here, who congT- tul tte him on his good fortune and wish him long and happy life.
