tive man. Without disparaging other men
they say that Reed has been too radical
as Speaker and being from the east ne is
tco radical on the money question. NC
Kinley, it is claimed, Is too radical on the
tariff. Harrison was too radical on the
federal election law, and made too many
enemies in his own party when PRESIDENT.
To avoid all these extremes man who
is a sound republican, but who is care
full and conservative citizen at the same
time, should be chosen.
1t Is claimed that the Iowa candidate
meets all these requirements. While he is
sound on the money question, he cannot be
called a radical gold man. While pro-
tectionist, he is from a western state and
Grafton in the tariff. Besides his con-
servatisn, it is claimed that his long serv-
ice, first in the House and afterward in
the Senate, has fitted him admirably for
the presidency
Allison has been blamed for this same
conservatism by men in his own party.
Many amusing stories are told of the smooth
manner in which he has got around COM
hitting himself to any definite line where
it was possible for a man to balance grace
fully on the fence. Frank Hatton, who
once made this city his nome, referred to
Allison as 1.-The celebrated rubber-tire
statesman of Iowa" He meant that he got
around so easily and with such little noise.
and at the same time swiftly, that his
enemies were never able to defeat or catch
him.
state may be accounted for by reason of
the fact that he has ever been careful in
looking out for the interests of every Sec
ton and attending with scrupulous care
to all the requests that have been made
upon him. More than this, his prominence
in national affairs has been a source of
pride to the state.
Tie people of Iowa are fifty represented
by conservative man. They are a pros
porous, Well-to-do people who are injured
only by extremes in hard times or in
changes of national policies. They are for
stability and conservative progress, OPP
posed to legislation which will jog them
out of the even tenor of their way.
His Personal Tastes.
Senator Allison is a resident of Dubuque.
He Is lawyer, but has been SO long in
public life that he has given little atten-
ton to the practice of his profession. He
Is a student of political economy and a
reader of all that is best in the deeper
literature Of the day. He Is native of
Ohio, but has resided in Iowa since 1857.
He is sixty-six years old, but does not look
1t, being one of the vigorous and healthy
in the presidential race to be run next
year who are older than Senator Allison,
and quite number who are younger, who,
according to appearances, cannot hope to
survive him.
Is 1896 to be a Hawkeye year? That is
what everybody is expecting In this state.

Special Correspondence of The Evening Star
BURLINGTON, Iowa, September 3d. 1895.
1t is possible that of all the candidates
who have been prominently mentioned for
the presidency none will he less disap-
pointed than Senator William B. Allison
if he should not be successful. With long
and honorable career in the Senate, the
ideal statesman of the commonwealth he
represents the senior Senator from Iowa
would not be sorely disappointed if he
should not be named for President by the
next republican convention. 1t cannot be
said that he is Indifferent or that he would
not like the nomination, but it is not so al
Turing to him as to many another that has
stood IL storm and gazed upon lightning
flashes and heard the thunders from the
presidential clouds. THIS may be explained

A Sudden Drop of the Thermometer

Washingtonians got their first touch of
real autumn weather yesterday, when the
thermometer took a decided drop and the
western sky filled with ugly looking clouds,
that first sent forth bowling blasts and
then gave forth steady fall of rain. All
the evening the atmosphere felt like that of
November, and this morning broke clear and
cold Forty-two degrees was the record Of

The Secretary's Wife Authority for
the Statement That He Is a
Candidate.

LINCOLN, NEBR., Sept. 4.-The second
Democratic State convention in Nebraska
this year will be held in Lincoln tomorrow
by that branch of Nebraska's Democracy
which upholds the administration of Pres
ident Cleveland and is opposed to the free
coinage of silver as espoused by the con-
vention at Omaha in August. Though
evidently in the minority in the State the
delegates to to-morrow's gath ering, many
of whom are already in the city, are
full of enthusiasm and predict a full at
tendance of the 643 delegates. Secretary
Carlisle, who was expected to be present,
has written a lengthy letter of regret, in
which it is expected he will announce his
personal views as we'll as those of the
administration on the monetary question.
Ex-Congressman Michael D. Harter of
Ohio, the pronounced gold standard advo-
cate, will be present and make an address.
Less interest is manifested in the prob
able candidates than in the declaration of
principles. 1t is safe to predict that the
Omaha convention will be denounced for
It's friendship for free silver and alleged
Populistic theories, and that President
Cleveland will receive unstinted praise.
The convention does not meet until 4
P NJ. and there is possibility that an adj
iournment may be taken until Friday.

BACKING FOR THE PRISONER
AcQuaintances of Former Days VIII
Aid Him in Securing
Freedom.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Sept. 4. - DR..
George W. Fraker, formerly physician at
the Elms Hotel, Excelsior Springs, Mo-,
who disappeared two years ago after in
surfing his life for $5S 900 and had been Off
cialy pronounced dead in the United
States Court, and whose executor had re-
ceived for distribution to the heirs all ex-
cept a few thousand dollars of the insur-
ance, was brought back to Kansas City
yesterday, and after spending the night
and to-day in the County Jail was taken
TO Richmond, Mo-, and placed in the Ray
County Jail, where his case will come up
at the next term of the court.
This morning before o'clock crowd
of curious people were around the jail ask
ing to see him. Among the first to come
were Mrs. J. II. Edmunds and her
daughter, a little girl of 10 or II. Mrs.
Edmunds is the mother of Johnnie Ed
munds, who was DR.. Fraker's office-boy at
the time of the doctors disappearance.
She has always maintained that Fraker
was dead, and in conversation yesterday
commended that he was dead. When adj
mitted to the jail she did not show that
she was surprised to find him alive and
well, but shook hands with him through the
bars, and talked with him for some time
Among others who visited Fraker's cell
was Major Blake L. Woodson, who says he
was personally acquainted with Fraker for
fifteen years. After some conversation
with the prisoner Major Woodson de-
clared emphatically that the prisoner was
not the original DR.. Fraker. He wagered
a suit of clothes that the prisoner would
never be identified as Fraker in court. He
says there is scarcely any resemblance be-
tween the prisoner and the man he knew
as DR.. Fraker.
At his old home, in Excelsior Springs,
Frakers friends are still willing to stand
by him. A number of the solid men of
the place are willing to go on his bond and
bail him out. One gentleman said: az
expect to see him here in 4 short time
actively engaged in the practice of medi-
cine"
At Liberty, Mo-, to-day two checks were
presented to the Commercial Savings
Bank, where the Fraker insurance money
is deposited, but were not honored, as the
bank had been enjoined from paying out
the funds. One of the checks was for
$1,000, and was given to Mrs. Cynthia Hat
field of Macon County. sister of Fraker. by
Executor J. E. Lincoln. The other check
was for 500, and to George Fraker, a
brother-in-law of Fraker. The checks
were given several days ago before Judge
Lincoln left for Colorado.

SALARY Il PARAMOUNT ISSUE.
Letter. Carriers Wall Urge the Passage OF
the DunDhu Bill.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Sept. 4.-When
the annual convention of the National As
ISOLATION of Letter-carriers reconvened to-
day resolution was presented from the
committee on legislation which read:
RESOLVED, That the subject of increase of sal
aries is of the most paramount importance to
this convention, and that it is the sense of this
body to recommend to the legislative commit
tee the introduction of the bill known as
House of Representatives bill No. $685. and
urge its speedy passage before both houses of
Congress.
The measure was adopted. A number
of other resolutions were disposed of.
Among those favorably considered was
one directing the legislative committee to
prepare a bill for presentation to Congress
granting $50 d year to letter-carriers for
the purchase of summer and winter uni
forms. Another, which was also adopted,
called for the presentation to the Postotfice
Department of a petition requesting that
the letter-carriers be allowed to wear q
lighter coat during the heated term. A
resolution providing for a Government
salary of $500 per year for sub-letter-car-
riers, although discussed in kindly spirit,
failed of adoption.
