ton contemplated were not properly
within tho jurisdiction Of the Senate. Mr..
Allen was indignant when this statement
was made, but he gained nothing by
his TRADE against the Democrats ana
the Republicans. who concur IN the opin-
ion that Mr.. Chambers resolution was
out OF place in body. which. by the
express terms OF the Federal Constitu-
ton. IS sole Judge OF the elections Of Its
own members.
The result surprised us agreeably. The
Senate. with only six dissenting votes,
refused even TO consider Mr.. Chambers
resolution This action OF that body +
indeed a hopeful sign. Mr.. Allen and
others holding his Capitalization notions
may think that the States have no
rights which Congress is bound TO re-
spcct: but the real statesman VIII fol-
low the track laid down by the Senate,
and refuse even 70 consider matters which
belong 10 the several states. Congress
has Just as much right to Investigate
tho state elections in Alabama and
all the other States al Il has TO investi-
gate the congressional elections therein.
Think OF the work that the investlga-
ton OF elections in forty-four States
would entail upon Congress, and then
decide whether the Senate took the
right side OF the question in the case OF
Mr. Chambers resolution.

Mnior Daniels Position

washington starr
Senator Daniel, OF Virginia, has stated
to a friend that If Mr.. Cleveland IS re-
nominated he will not support him. The
declaration was unequvocaL The subject
under discussion was the third term.
No other Democratic leader has so dis
tinctly challenged the proposition TO
violate the unwritten law i'm Mr. Cleve-
lands behalf. In all the talk about bolts
and splits at Chicago. the financial ques-
ton is uppermost. A number of Demo-
Gratis have predicted heavy losses TO the
party II silver should control the con-
vention; and as many more have pre-
dicted such a result II gold should con-
troll. There have been leaders 10 say
too that Mr.. Cleveland II nominated at
Chicago, would be Overwhelmingly de-
feated. But Mr.. Daniel is the first
Democrat Of national reputation and in
fiuence TO make the thlrd-term PROPOSE
ton stand on It's own bottom, and 10 an
nOunce his uuGlterable opposition TO IT,
Mr.. Daniel Is a free-silyer man, and
will probably head his States delegation
to Chicago lie does not threaten to
bolt II gold wins. His disappointment m
that event would be keen. but the be-
lief is that. with a good man at the head
OF the ticket. he would return home
and Loyalty support IT. But he is against
a third term on principle, and he would
not follow his party In any effort 20 vio-
late that principle
How far this feeling extends in
Democratic circles I'm Virginia is a ques-
ton. The belief is that 1t Is very
strong throughout the State. Virginia,
II Is suggested, is the proper home for
such sentiment. The men who. by word
or example. or by both. prepared the
unwritten law against a third term were
all her sons-Washingtca, Jefferson, Madi-
son, and Monroe. Each had two terms,
but neither could have been induced to
accept a third. Mr. Daniel. therefore,
and those OF his constituents who hold
with him. are but championing Nirginias
history In this matter.
Those who insist that Mr.. Cleveland
does not desire a third term excuse his
silence on the score that ne has not
as yet had a suitable opportunity 10
speak. VIII the Virginia State Conven-
tlon. which Is soon 10 meet, give him
this opportunity Some OF the politicians
hope 10 see the occasion so improved
hope to see a resolution introduced re-
citing the situation in respectful terms
calling attention to the Importance OF
preserving so momentOus a precedent.
and then see a rousing majority obtained
for IT, Then Mr.. Cleveland could reply,
by letter or authorized statement, and
the public would no longer be in any
doubt on the point.

THE VETERANS REUNION.

TO the Editor Of the Dispatch:
VIII you kindly answer the following
questions:
1. VIII the general public be entitled
to the reduced railroad rates to the re-
union, or do they only apply TO the vete-
rams?
@ Are the veterans TO be fed and lodged,
or will they have TO feed and lodge them
selves?
Please answer and oblige,
4 VETERAN.
/. Everybody will be entitled TO the
reduced rates to the reunion.
2. The Veterans Committee have made
up their minds to quarter and ration TO
the best Of their ability all those vete-
rams who. for any reason, will have been
unable to provide for themselves. In or
der that the committee may do so effec-
lively. it is right and proper that every
veteran who can do so shall provide for
himself. IT is believed that there will
be from twenty to thirty thousand vete-
rams in the city during the reunion. or
at least on the day of the grand parade
and cornerstone Thursday, July
%.
BY the way, we find that our suggestion
with reference 10 the Counties Camp
is as much approved as that we made with
reference to the Confederate concert;
but unlike the latter, is not being ar
ranged for as yet by any committee.
As thousands Of people will come here In
their covered wagons and will sleep in
(or UNDER these wagons at night during
their stay, our idea is that It would be
well for each county to have its own
camp. Let II be known that people from
Chesterfield will camp here people from
Hanover camp there. etc To make this
plan productive Of the best results, each
county should have a committee TO Sc
lect and make known its camping
ground-ground whore there is plenty OF
water and other conveniences. By com
ing I'm their big covered wagons, and
bringing their own food with them
"camp-meetin' fashion, our country
friends could enjoy the reunion and be
as Independent as princes, and yet not
be out Of pocket much.
OF course. there are thousands OF
country people who have relatives and
friends here, who have already received
invitations to visit them during the re-
union, but TO the many others who are
not SO fortunate, the counties camp"
would prove a blessing. We should think
that the vicinity Of the Exposition
Grounds would be the best location for
these camps.

cu.IRu,N UARHITY-AGAIN.


We did not credit the Harrity inter
view as reported in the New York pa
pers OF Friday. and said plainly yester-
day that unless Mr.. Harrity had lost his
wits no had never intimated that the
Democratic National Committee would
dare 10 undertake the work Of making
ND a roll containing the names Of sound
money delegates enough TO place the
convention under the control OF the
goldites
MIR. Barbour. when he was chairman OF
fhe state Democratic Committee, had
way Of pooh-poohing such reports as the
ones now under consideration. He was
always ready to speak a hopeful word.
Mr.. Harrity meant to do the same. lie
has 10 more intention Of engaging IN
the work which the New York reporters
cut out for him than he has of running
for President of the United States. HIS
committee would soon find way of set
ting him right If he were to presume to
intimate TO them that he could insure
the presence Of a sound-money majority
In that convention by resorting 20 any
irregular methods.
Mr.. Harrity has a theory OF his own
md ne expressed that theory in language
so plain that there was no excuse TOT
the conduct of the New York papers III
attributng TO him purposes which, as
good Democrat, he could not for mo-
ment entertain. He said in unambiguous
phrase that with every advance OF the
Mckinley movement the chance OF the
Democracy has been improved That Is
TO say. If Mckinley is nominated by the
Republicans, the Democratic nominee
will be elected. Yet what could be more
carefully worded than the Chairman's
utterance? IF Mckinley is nominated
nj st Louis. | am confident that Demo
cratic success next November will not
only be possible but extremely proba-
BILE" That is Chairman Harrity's utter
ance on that point. though he made II
10 different men. Before he saw the
bogus statements In the New york pa
pers he had not even 50 much as dreamed
that there could be any such scheme on
foot as these New York papers charged
10 him. Ana MI hdiilAA NVNiai avn
was true and TO the point when he said;
cDelegates who say beforehand that they
will not abide by the decision Of the ma
1ority of the convention should not be ad-
United TO it."
Chairman Harrity is confident that the
Democratic National Convention will
name sound-money candidate and
adopt a sound-money platform. We have
several times expressed somewhat SINH
lar opinions, but we have never seen the
day when we were ready to resort TO
any unfair method Of securing these
results. No more has Mr. Harrity. lie
measured his words because he was
chairman OF the Democratic National
Committee Let all good Democrats
ncarure their words in like manner. and
tn Tuesday after the first Monday in
Noyembcr next viii witness an old-fash-
ioned Democratic triumph.

MOCK CONVENTION or STUDENTS.
Chicago University Men and Women
to Nominate n Democratic Ticket.


\ new departure IN college politics Is
about to be taken by the Oratorical As
ISOLATION OF the University OF Chicago.
1t has been decided to hold a national
Democratic convention. at Kent Theatre
on June 9Th and 6th 10 which 233 dele
gates will be chosen to represent as near
~ as possible the states from which
they come. Women win not be barred
and their presence I'm an active capacity
is expected 10 be a feature OF the occa-
sion.
The proceedings VIII be IN no sense Of
a frivolous nature. for II is the intcn-
ton 20 nominate the best men for office
and TO conduct the convention after the
most approved manner. A Democratic
convention. rather than one OF any other
party. has been selected as giving more
scope en- nominating candidates and as
likely 60 be more free from party prcju-
dice there being so few Democrats at
the university
The plan is attracting much attention
from the students and is likely TO be
success.

Baltimore Sum-

Mr.. Evan p Howell the editor OF the
Atlanta Constitution, says that the
free-silver Democrats OF Georgia will
form party Of their own. II they cannot
get what they want at the Chicago con-
vention." There Is every reason 20 be-
lieve that the South Carolina silver Dem
ocrats will also bolt in the event that
the national convention dominates a
sound-money man. Senator Vest, OF
Missouri. has publicly stated that he
will not be bound by the Chicago conven-
ton. II II is dominated by Federal Of
fice-holdeTs." SO it will be seen that the
advocates OF the white metal are al
ready preparing 70 walk out OF the con-
vention II II contains a majority OF dele
gates in favor OF the gold standard. In
fact, there are abundant indications that
the gathering OF the Democracy a, Chi
cago Will be characterized by many ex-
citing incidents. and that II will be
