MIR. Reed Has Developed Strength.

Philadelphia, September 6.-Gen
James S. Clarkson of Iowa. was here last
night. Gen. Clarkson is taking a great
interest in the race of the Republican
presidential candidates. While he thinks
ex-Speaker Reed has developed consider
able strength lately. he stated that he
was of the opinion that the Republican
party would have to go to the Mississippi
valley for standard bearer to lead the
hosts to victory this year. He also thinks
that the State of Iowa is this particular
place. and Senator VIM. B. Allison is the
particular man whom the Republicans
will have to select.
Allison. he thinks, is the logical candi-
date. He is neither of the far West nor
the East, but from the conservative
centre of the country which has neither
the preiudices nor isms of either section. \
