WHITNEY MrsREPREsrsrED.
He Believes New York VIII Go for
McISlnIey.


The Philadelphia Evening Telegraph OF
Friday publishes an interview with ex-
Secretary whitney. obtained by stan
correspondent in New York. In the IN
teryiow Mr.. whitney expresses tho be-
lief that Mckinley win carry New York
| State by 10000 majority.
us Ii true, Mr.. whitney. that you
class New York State as doubtfulT he
was asked.
True, SIR? Mr. whitney replied.
There is not a word OF truth In It. 1t
il not only false. but It Is absolutely
false"
was this statement circulated with
the object OF placing you in COM
promising position. and for a mereenary
| purpose?"
These people have no object and no
power to AFFECT my compromise. In my
opinion. Unfortunately, perhaps. am
regarded as a leader Of the sound-money
movement in the Democratic party. and a
good many people. whether wisely or not.
attached Importance to my utterance.
SCHEME OF THE BEARS.
"When il Is alleged that l yield New
| York to the silver people, they regard
| the situation OF sound-money as perilous.
| Knowing this 20 be the effect OF what
| such q statement from me on the sub
| ject would be, the bear element, which
has been raiding stocks for n long time,
and which wants some new argument
| to further depress. has most unwrs-
rantedly seized upon my name. and ras-
cally attributed this declaration TO me.
1t is false; wholly false"
Then you do not give up the Slater
WHAT Give up the State OF New York
NH lob IA n,
Never! There is nothing-sbsolutely no
thing-to justify honest men In yielding
an inch Of their ground. On the con-
trary, you may express II as my firm
conviction that Mr.. McKinley Will carry
this State by fully 10000 majority. and
in that majority you win find men OF all
classes, who put patriotism over partisan
ship In an issue Of this kind.
NEVER GAVE UP NEW YORK.
IT have no hesitation in expressing this
belief It comes from what / have seen,
what have heard, what / have investi-
gated. and what / know. People who
understand me would not for an instant
accept as true any such statement as
that attributed TO me to-day; but there
are thousands who do not know me who
would readily accept any such report. and
that Is ali the bears want To start a
break It is only necessary to cause a
fright"
you have never given up New York;"
Never When the Chicago convention
turned deaf ears TO the Empire State
delegation, New York was lost 10 the
nominees II selected. and from, that day
the native honesty OF our people has
been steadily asserting Itself antago-
nistic to the vicious silver heresy. You
may say for me that II have any ut
terances 10 make on the status OF the
present national contest, II will not be
by vague report coming from a manoeu-
wiring clique OF brokers. who are try
ing 10 ruin credits, and the public may
as we'll take this as n hint toward the
truth now"

THE NEXT CONGRESS.

II may be set down as certain that
there will be big fight for the con-
troll OF the rext nationa! HoUss Of Rep
resentatiyes. IT seems TO be conceded
that Ine control OF the Senate will be in
tho hands Of the Democrats. But there
is one leading Republican paper which
processes to believe that the Mckinley
plan OF tariff revision will not DO i'm
peded in the Senate We aliuds TO the
Brooklyn Union. which We quote as fol-
lows:
1.-THE truth is, the election OF McKln-
ley to be President viii be such a
demonstration Of the power Of protec-
ton and reciprocity that the Senate viii
be carried More than that, the mobs
Of maniacs win find themselves confront
ed In their own madhouses by teachers
In a campaign Of education, and their
States swept away from them on the
rising tide Of McKinleyism. The States
that are confidently claimed by the
yawping and weeping silverine states
men will be found on the side of the
restorers Of Rcpublicanism TO the nation
al potentialties. The election OF Nc
Kinley will carry both houses OF Con-
gress the same way"
We might concede that when Mckinley
Is elected President the Senate Will be
converted into Republican body. But
we do not conceds that protection" IS,
as strong with the people as free money.
Even In Brooklyn we look for free sill
yer to hold its own. as against any tariff
that Mr.. Mckinley or any other Republi-
can can frame. The fact IS, the tariff
is no longer a name to conJure with.
Without intending to do It. the free-sil-
verites have buried 1t out Of sight for the
present.
Reciprocity is totally different thing
from protection" AS far as II goes.
reciprocity IS a Democratic measure. 1t
has no fellowship with Republican mea-
sures. 1t purposes to treat foreign ma
tons in a liberal manner. That is to say.
Uncle Sam will "reciprocate" any good
legislation which any foreign country may
devise in the interests OF mankind. II
these reciprocity advocates are enabled
by preaching reciprocity 20 secure con-
troll OF the next Congress. nobody win
cry much over the result

Tho only two virAnians who were
present at the goidite conference at In
dIanapolIs were Joseph Bryan. ESQ. OF
Richmond. and +. c. Venable, Esq, OF
Petersburg.
10th OF these are distinguished gentle
men. but we 90 not see by what right
they undertake to represent the Demo-
Gratis OF Virginia Where are their ere
dentials7 When and where were they
elected? What persons were present at
their election; what counties and cities
had delegates present. and who were
these delegates?
All these questions should be satisfac-
torily answered before tho claim OF
Messrs Bryan and yenable tc speak for
Virginia can be allowed.
In truth. they DO not represent the
Democrats Of Virginia; nor the Demo-
Gratis of Richmond; nor, we believe, the
Democrats OF Petersburg. Ninety per
cent. OF our party are well satisfied
with the Chicago platform and nomi-
nees. And Of the other 10 per cent,
tho great majority acquiesce In
the results OF the convention. and feel
bound TO abide by It's arbitrament
The doctrine promulgated by Mr..
Cleveland In the Howell letter. written
four years ago, is the accepted Demo-
cratic doctrine In Virginia The Chicago
convention was regular; 1t did what 1t
had the right TO DO. and all good and
loyal Democrats are bound TO submit
to its DEGREES.
On this subject we refer our readers
to the Cleveland Howell letter-which
we have twice published-and which had
much TO do with bringing the Hill men
into line in 1892. Here in Virginia there
were tens Of thousands Of Democrats
who were bitterly opposed to Cleveland,
but they complied with their party obli-
CATION, and worked and voted for his
election, after he had been duly nomi-
mated.
But, II we are to have third ticket
In Virginia, all right. Indeed, We do
not know but that we ought to welcome
It. 1t will be fine fun to see the Venable
and Bryan Democrats stand up to
be counted in comparison with the Bryan
and sewan Democrats.
OF course. their right 10 have the names
OF their electors put upon the official bal
lot, under the heading OF the ma
tional Democratic Party" cannot be al
lowed; but their names may be entered
under some other heading. Then IT will
remain 10 be seen whether they VIII be
any more successful in 1895 than Malone
was IN 1850. when he ran the ReadJuster.
Hancock and English electoral ticket.
That ticket showed Mahone's hand, ex-
posed his weakness, and prepared the
way for his downfall, and SO. we guess,
will the Venable-Bryan movement bring
to an early grave the Democratic boilers
movement in Virginia.
