Senator Elkins of West Virginia Is a
smart and we'll posted man, but he is a
republican. In his Colorado interview,
which he caused to be telegraphed over
the east, he cunningly makes it appear
that the silver movement is In the inter
est of the silver producers. In this he Is
guilty of willful deceit, lie knows that
a return to bimetallism is for the benefit
of the industrial and producing classes
all over the land. As he has seen fit to
change front on the subject Mr.. Elkins
should either be silent or honest.

by proviso that no timber on sections
16 and 36 shall be sold pending the de.
termination of the question of the
states rights to these sections as school

politicians in Washington at this time
is more in the interest of endeavoring

where the national tickets shall be
chosen. While it is true that opponents

men who are shrewd political manipu-
lators that the honor will go either to
Reed or Allison.
Positions of Harrison and Mckinley.
Ex-President Harrison is the next
strongest candidate so far as actual
strength is concerned. although Nc
Kinley follows him as a close second.
The only other men considered avail.
able in any other quarter are Cullom
and Davis. The opinion is expressed
that if either Of these gentlemen are
successful it will be because the four
leading men in the contest are unable
to secure sufficient number of votes to
nominate after the convention has bal
loted. In such an event Davis might
come to the front. Unless predictions
made by shrewd politicians are mis-.
taken, either Reed, Allison, Harrison
