Mr. Nanley has some ideas in reatc; 10
conducting National campaign. In speaking oil
this subject he said: Il believe that the genera!
organization of the party over the country should
l.. started carly in the fight. The only way 10 at
tain and then maintain party organization Is u
start early and safely. Ascertain the strchS'h OIL
the party all over the country The men directing
the National campaign must get in touch with the
State leaders and local leaders. The whole country
,nust be a network of party lines that can be
worked at will. Then again. the idea OF single
station as a National headquarters can be improved
on l think that in the next campaign the f'e-
publican party should have headquarters not on!y
in New-York but in the West also. Chicago Would
le the place for the Western headquarters. Ihen
another National bureau should he establisheq al
Washington. The Republican Congressional! Com,
mittee has it's headquarters there, and much Soou

citation Some years later the question arose
and again Mr. Reeds wishes were disregarded ana
Senators Frye and Hale who had selected another

in speaking of the story, said: There is no use
in dilating on that The whole affair is settled
You could hardly that there any enmty
between AIR. Reed and the Senators from his state.
There was difference of opinion but 1t is all right
now The matter settled about the time that
Senators Gallinger and Chandler of New Hamp-

monious and really never did amount 10 much"
Mr.. Manley refused TO say whether he was the
peacemaker. the story relates.
All Mr.. Maney knew of his trip abroad was that
he would spend Holy Week in Rome and see the
Derby run in England in June. He hopes 10 meet
the Pope Bismarck and Gladstone during his so
journ in Europe and is provided with letters which
he hopes will secure him the pleasure Of talking
with these men.
