DEMOCRATIC HEADQUARTERS
They Will Be at Chicago in the Event of
Silver Triumph.
An Attempt to Win Illinois, Indiana,
Michigan and the Doubtful
Western States,

1t is understood that the triumph of
silver at Chicago will be followed by the
establishment of national democratic head
quarters in that city. With the south as
sCred to the democracy, the play will be
for Illinois, Indiana, Michigan and the
doubtful states Of the west, and this IT
Is considered can best be made from the
Wi1uy city. There will likewise be ar
appeal to sentiment in the selection. Chi
cego is the great metropolis of the country
on the other side of the AlIeghenies and
as 1t is contended that the fate of silver
rests with the south AID west, the silver
men of those sections will, 1t is believed
exert themselves to a more effective de-
gree by working under directions from
their own bailwick. to speak.
Can't DO Business in New York.
Besides, it is asked, why undertake to do
business from New York? The east will
either be apathetic or openly hostile. The
power of the New York democracy is CEN
tered in New York city. and the gold mer
are all-potent there. Aid as New York
goes on the financial question, SO, It is
coEtehded. Will go both New Jersey and
Coz hecticut. Those are the only eastern
states ~ here the democracy has ever had
hghtlng chance, and as all three will be
made safely republican by democratic
democracy for any chance of success in
this hight must choose another held.
Nenr a Base of Supplies.
The silver men believe that by estab-
fishing headquarters in Chicago they will
not only be nearer the debataDle territory
but near base of good supplies. The
east, they calculate, Will send its sub
scriptions to the republicans. Fut as sill
Yer is strong in Illinois, Indiana and
throughout the west, the democracy there
Will be liberal with its money and make
up to the cause what it loses by eastern
indifference or hostility.
Mr.. Hurrity's Successor.
Discussion has begun about Mr. Har-
ritys successor as chairman OF the demo-
cratic national committee. A silver plat
form and a silver ticket will, of course, de-
nand a silver chairman. The name of
Senator Jones of Arkansas is mentioned
Mr.. Jones is regarded as one of the most
capable men in his party. He made a
good deal OF reputation for himself i'll the
light over the Wilson bill In the Senate
the parliamentary features of which he
conducted His acquaintance among pub
lie men Is wide, and that is very Valua BILE
In a national contest. His own state will
not need bis attention. 1t is reliably demo-
crauc at all times, and On this silver issue
Will be, it is asserted, overwhelmingly So
Mr.. Jones has helped to shape the silver
issue, is in the confidence of all his asso-
clates in the cause, and those who suggest
his name for chairman regard him as being
pfe-eminently We'll qualified for the place
SO far nobody has discussed the matter
with him.

THE SENATE BOND BILL,
1t Will BE Reported Adversely in the
House and Tabled.

special meeting of the House ways and
means committee was called by Chairman
pingley this morning to consider the bond
bill which passed the Senate yesterday
The committee expect to report the bill
back adversely early this afternoon and 10
dispose Of it in the House today if he state
of the business will admit of their calling
1t up.
The proposition was made to refer the
matter to a subcC mnlittee, and let it lie
over, but the opinion of the chairman and
OF hers whose judgment is respected by the
majority was that it ought to be disposed
OF at cnce and with as little debate as pos
sihle- No Cne seems TO have an idea that
the bill could possibly pass the House. and
1t is thought best not to allow it to hang
as a menace. The idea is to report the bill
adversely and to move at once to Law il on
the table, cutt'rg off the possibility of any
Erotracted debate. This will be done by a
large majority.
