Morrison's Chances.

At present there is a good deal of talk
among democratic politicians of Col.
William r. Morrison, a member of the
interstate commerce commission as a suit
able man to nominate for President. In
support of Col. Morrison's candidacy it is
mentioned that he is a western man, and
that he is so popular that there would be
no difficulty in getting both sound money
and free silver coinage democrats to sup
port him.
Col Morrison has been an Office holder
for more than forty years. and has sue
ceeded admirably in retaining the respect
of the people in all the positions he has
filled. He is a man of excellent judg-
ment. and knows how to keep quiet when
it would not advance his interests to talk.
He is an old man now, having passed his
list year, but he shows no signs of failing,
either physically or mentally.
But there isn't much, if any, probability
that Col. Morrison will be the democratic
nominee for President. He has been a
presidential candidate too long to be nom
mated now In the convention of 1880 he
received SlAtS-lWO votes anu was talked
of as a possibility in 1884, 1888 and 1892. In
the convention in 1892 he received three
votes
1t seems to be understood that the talk
Of Morrison is nothing more than an eff
fort to measure the strength of the oppo-
sition TO the position occupied by the adj
ministration. If that is what the Norri
son talk means there isn't any probability
that much more will be heard of him in
the convention of 1896 than there was in
that Of 1892
The fact is. Col. Morrison has had
his day. He is on the shelf. He recog-
nized that fact when he accepted a place
on the interstate commerce commission.
He is no longer in close touch with the
people, and it is doubtful if any one could
state what his views on the silver ques-
ton are. He has views. of course, on that
question. He is man of convictions, but
he keeps his convictions to himself.
The man the democratic party will nom
mate this year will be outspoken in favor
of sound money. He will hold about the
same views on the money question that
are held by the administration. We do

There is a man in an English work
house who only few years ago owned
almost all of the present site of the city
of Johannesburg. South Africa, and a
large quantity of the land adjoining. He
bought it all for about 81, $50. At the time
of the Boer rebellion he was prevented
from settling on his property. After
the Beers had secured their independ-
ence. President Kruger made him prop
osition that he become a subject of the
republic. This was refused, and the lands
were promptly connscated. They are now

nomination, but he would like to see a man

tariff and the currency. The nominee may
be Olney or Carlisle, or Whitney. or some
other low tariff and sound money man.
Col Morrison is not in the list OF probable
candidates.
