A strange fatality hangs around

the Democratic nominations in
the Tenth district. The man OF
all others who can carry that dis
trict for Galveston and represent
it creditably, in so far as a Demo-
crat can, is Gresham Of Galveston,
but the platform adopted by the
congressional convention rendered
his acceptance impossible, for he
is sound money Democrat. This
leaves the Galveston field free, and
in all probability Hawley will be
nominated by the Republicans.
This is accepted as giving the dis
trict to the Republicans, for no
man-outside Of Galveston wins.

There is pretty big contract be-
fore tho free silverites of the coun-
try in their attempt to fight their
battle without the aid and COM
fort of the press Of the country.
The detection from the ranks Of
the Democracy, as the Democracy
defined itself at Chicago, is one Of
the significant signs of the times.
1t is new thing under the sun Of
United States politics.

Houston finds out that it will
only take half million or so to
open a channel to deep water, $50
feet in width and and Of sufficient
depth to accumulate her trade.
She is as happy as if that $55O,OOO
was already in her treasury and
the contract signed. When that
is done it is in order to sit down
and wait for the water, or at least
to what the wild, wild waves are
saving.

Kentucky silverites are dis
couraged. A silver meeting was
called recently at Dayton to form
free silver club. Senator New
man was the principle speaker, but
he could not answer the questions
that were shot at him all over the
house, and the upshot Of it was
that resolutions were adopted,
almost unanimously, endorsing
Mckinley and Hobart, sound
money and protection.

Mark Hanna has won golden
opinions from all who have come
in contact with him in his recent
visit to New York. He is seen by
those old New York wise heads to
move along new lines, he is open
and accessible to all, makes no
mystery Of his work and moves
direct to the accomplishment of
his purpose. He is not fully I'M
derstood, but he is implicitly
trusted as a man who has grasped
the situation, who knows what he
wants and how to secure 1t. The
only thing about which he is in
doubt is how best to meet the
wants of the sound money Demo-
Gratis, and this is not to be Won
dered at, for they do not them
selves understand either what they
want or what Is best. All this in
time will clear itself. Hanna is
delusive in that he is not Elusive.
He is open as the day, prefers to
hear others talk to talking himself
and is in marked contrast to the
old time campaign manager. His
visitors at New York were men
more noted for their sound bust.
ness standing than for political
generalship. With these men
Hanna is indeed at home.

1t is a strange perversion of
political idea that renders a man
untitled to fight as leader, because
he cannot endorse the platform,
but permits him to take his place
with the rank and file and do duty
as a private. To a man up a tree
it looks as though tho fight in this
case was also against convictions
and just as unwarranted. Gres-
ham evidently thinks not.

There is no doubt that whatever
happens to Bryan his running

Louisiana Democrats are in the
same boat in so far as Populist

Democrats put Watson upon their

Senator Pritchard, of North Car
DINA, is sanguine that the Nc
Kinley wave will sweep that state.
All that is needed in his opinion is
a fair election and an honest count.
Under existing conditions both Of

There is strong undertow to
this Sewall- Watson business, and
it is likely to sweep more than one
state from its moorings and split
the Bryan following from center to
outside. There is no disposition
on the part OF the Populists in
some Of the states to admit the De-
mocracy to any participation in
the state offices, but they are firm
In demanding a division OF the
electoral vote. This is not likely
to suit the Democrats who figure
the Pops as their meat.

Bourke Cochran is astonished
that any ono who knows him

as he intends to act. Other Demo-
Gratis talk differently, but they will

Jones is not the first man who
has been better able to teach GER
tain virtues than to practice them.
He has succeeded in corking Bry-
ans mouth, but has left his own so
wide open that he has not only put
his own foot in 1t, but the entire
Populist party as we'll. Curses
both loud and deep follow his de.
uunciation of the Populists, whom
he relegates to the ranks of the
southern darkies as their true and
fitting political associates. Maybe
the Pops are not mad.

with an air of solid conviction that
