THEIR CLAIM ON INDIANA.

Governor Morton has a committee
made up of oldtime political workers
who are operating in Indiana. These
workers have Issued a manifesto which
is interesting in some respects and
amusing in others. The manifesto re-
cites the fact that in former years New
York has asked the honor OF the NOM
ination But has always yielded grace
fully and helped loyalty for candidates
from other states. 1t admits that Mr.
Morton is seventy-one years old. but It
directs the attention of the Indiana
republicans to the fact that he is robust
enough to stand political wear and tear
along wit h men like Gladstone, Bis
marck, Evarts. Palmer and others.
The amusing part of the manifesto
is the paragraph in which the New
Workers say: I'VE believe that we
have peculiar claims upon the republi-
cans of Indiana In 1855 IL was the
solid vote of New York for Harrison
that made his nomination possible at
Chicago. and 1t was the untiring energy
of the republicans in every quarter Of
our immense territory that drew to the
polls the last possible republican vote
and won over enough democrats so
that, while we lost the state on gov
ernor by p, 900. we carried the state for
Harrison by $4,000. and gave him the
electoral votes without which he could
not have been elected"

methods of our British and American pi-
oneers is hardly to their discredit, what
ever use the military authority on either
side may afterwards have made of their
Indian allies. Marquette's offense appears
to be that he wore a cassock instead OF
a hunting shirt, and carried only the
weapons of peace. Writing to his supe-
rior from his prosperous settlement at
Mackinaw, he describes the success Of
his mission, but adds: II am ready to
go on your order to seek new nations to-
ward the South sea, who are still un-
known to us, and to teach them Of our
great God, whom they have hterto not
known"

time obliterated most of the teaching Of
Marquette and his companions. but they
left an impression along the shores of

WORKING THE OLD RACKET.

Marcus A. Hanna, who was chosen
as one of Ohio's delegates Large to
St. Louis, is the man who has done
most thus far to promote the Ohio ia
vorite's chances. and he is the man
who, more than any other. is likely to
prove to be McKinley's stone of STUN
bling.
To hear Hanna tell IL, Mckinley has
taken all the protected industries in
Pennsylvania from Quay. knocked
Morton completely out in New York
and left Reed with few scattered dis
tricts in New England. AS the Stand
ard remarked yesterday, some of the
republican organs in these states are
getting ready to go at Mckinley in
savage style. They insist that Alli-
son, Blaine. Reed. Aldrich. Quay and
other republican leaders all had a
hand in framing the Mckinley bill,
and they object to Hanna's methods
of assessing the protected industries
for McKinley's benefit.
The Philadelphia Inquirer says: Mr..
Hanna has been invading various
great manufacturers for his favortte.
1t is within the absolute knowledge of
tine Inquirer that he has tried to col
lect funds in Pennsylvania, New Jer-
sey and New York" In the opinion of
the Inquirer, it is almost an insult to
solicit subscriptions for Mckinley in
states that have candidates of their
own in the field.
In other sections of the country the
same style Of talk is heard. In Iowa
the republican organs find fault with
Hanna. A few days ago one of the
leading republican organs in Mr.. AL
lison's state protested against Hanna's
pocket-book campaigning. Mckinley,
having used legislation to make mill
ions for the trusts and the corpora
tions, seems to think that a levy on
them for his benefit is a matter of
course.

HE HAS A PLAN.

Mr.. John L. Sullivan proposes a cam
paign of education. He finds that he
has a mission, and he threatens to
undertake it's performance. His idea is
to carry on a campaign of education
he is ready to take the lead. What
we want to do" remarks Mr.. Sullivan.
"is to educate and tone up the people
to understand boxing. OF course, lots
of people cry against boxing just be-
cause they are afraid to be quoted as
favoring it, but IL it is made legal lots
of folks will go who do not go now"
For the purpose of making IL legal.
Mr.. Sullivan proposes to organize
leagues. What we want to do" con-
tinues Mr. Sullivan, sis to get the
voters into the league" The league
will make itself felt by firing interroga-
ton points at candidates for member
ship in the state legislatures and in
congress. Candidates will be asked
what they think of boxing, racing and
all kinds of sports. "If their views CO.
incide with ours we will vote for them.
II they don't we'll beat EN-"
The public may hasten to the conclu-
sion that Mr.. Sullivans scheme will not
amount to much. 1t is to be remem-
bered, however. that If the figures fur
nished from London are right. more
than hundred candidates for parlia-
ment were defeated last year because
their views were not agreeable to the
members of the Sporting league in
England

THEY ARE GOLDBUGS.

Even in Iowa silver gets no recogni-
given a tremendous send-off at Des
Moines yesterday. The convention is
reported TO have been the most enthu-
siastic ever held in the state-there
was harmony with applause and hur-
rahs for Iowa's favorite son who, by
the way. is a native son of McKinley's
state.
The Iowa republicans went on record
with the goldbugs. The platform calls
for sound money; those are the
words which the goldbugs have press
ed into service. in the belief that by
the use of them the masses may be
misled. The Iowa attitude will not
be misunderstood in Montana. The
platform. which unquestionably was
approved in advance by Senator ALI
son. carries no DISCUSSES. The senator
is evidently planning to be the legatee
of Morton and Reed; TO that end N
became necessary TO declare as unre-
servedly against silver as Mr.. Reeds
state will and Mr.. Mortons
The Ohio platform is less courage
Gus, but 1t is equally hostile to silver.
In Ohio the republicans concluded to
ape the Minneapolis platform. the
meaning of which was the theme OF
rather bitter discussion i'm the federal
senate few days ago. That style OF
bimetallism fits John Sherman as well
as the silver senators.-at least. Mr..
Hoar, Mr. Sherman. Mr. Chandler and
the rest of ahem insist that II does.
