TALK OF HARRISON AS A CANDIDATE.


HE WOULD RESPOND TO AN IMPERATIVE
CALL AT ST. LOUIS.
Washington. April (specIaD. Representative
Steele. Of Indiana has been talking freely here In
regard to the prospect OF ex-Presdent Harrison
being a candidate at the St. Louis Convention
There Is feeling among the Republican leaders
OF Indiana" he said the other day. that 1t would
be very foolish thing for us 10 tie ourselves down
by rigid instructions Tor any candidate II 1t should
appear that there Is deadlock at 81. Louis. ex-
President Harrison could be brought out and NOM
mated at the rgh. time TO the satisfaction OF people
at large. 1t would be very unfortunate for US X

want to be put In the position Of the New-fork
Democrats at Chicago who were tangled up with
pledge and voted for their while the rest OF
the party were examining down their throat the most
conspicuous Democrat in their own State. This de-
sire for freedom from instructions exists among
some OF the strongest Mckinley men in Indiana
They are anxious and Will to 10 ST. Louis and do

has the slightest chance OF winning, but they do
not desire to be so tied up that they cannot honor

demonstrated that Mckinley cannot win.

II was not needed for We know that In no sense Is

he left the White House. Nevertheless. we have
reason TO know that he would respond 10 call

could not be charged with having antagonized other
candidates General Harrison is pure character.
His Administration was clean. and he would COM
mand the support of all parties for every one knows
his position in regard TO the tariff and 10 financial
matters. Few men in the party could command
much respect from the extremes on the financial
question as the ex-President. for he Ia known
quantity. and there would be no beating about the
bush as to where he stands. For these reasons
am inclined believe that the friends OF Mckinley
will unite with the friends OF other candidates at
our State Convention and send four deegates-at-
who will he free TO act according TO the siua
ton as they find II at St Louis. Major McKinley's

HISTORICAL ARGUMENTS RIDICULED.


About equally ridiculous is the attempt TO prove
that Mckinley will not be nominated. Two Repub-
lican conventions opened some men say. with
Blaine leading In and Grant In the other. and
they were both defeated They might include In this
statement the OF William H. Seward and the
Convention OF 1850. But how such twaddle must ex-
asperate every professor or student or logic! In
fact It Is doubtful II II succeeds in convincing the
most unripe hay-seeder that there Is anything akin
TO reasoning in this talk Let us reduce 1t and see
how IL looks
proposition l. The Republican Convention OF
1850 opened with General Grant in the lead. but he
was defeated. Ergo. II Mckinley leads In 1896. he
will be defeated.
proposition 2 Gnx's baby had the whoopng
cough In June 1850. Ergo. Jones's baby Will have
the whoOpng- cough In June. 1896.
NO man jealous OF his reputation for sanity Will
deny that the logic OF these two propositions Is
equally sound
sight entirely Of the principal factor In this problem
namely. that the conditions OF 1896 the direct re-
verse OF the conditions OF 1850 1876 and 1850.
The vote that Jed the convention OF $50 was the
vote OF the machine. striving 10 break down the
time honored barrier against tyranny in the linlta-
ton OF the Presidential office to TWO terms Inc
people up and shed that slate OF the bosses
and is1G were machine puraties on those occa-
sions. also. Il was the people who overthrow me
deep-laid plans OF the machine. But In 1896 on the
contrary II is the people who are backing the lead
er. So have. now.
Proposition 3 The voice OF the people. which IL
the voice OF God defeated the machine In these Re-
publican conventions. And since God Is the same
people which is the voice OF God. will defeat the ma
chine in 1886"
