Mckinney s,l,l ,;nIn,nr lround.

The cause Of McKnleyism continued
its triumphant march through Repub.
lican circles, last week, and the Ohio
man is now further in the lead than
ever. To Monday, Cos delegates to the
Republican national convention have
been chosen, and of this total the Mo-
Kinloyitos lay confident claim to $50.
They feel sure that in the contests for
the remaining delegates they will se-
cure enough TO give Mckinley ma
jority on the first ballot, aud there is
eyory reason to believe that their
claims are valid and reasonable.
Tho Philadelphia Ledger, which has
all along been opposed to the nomina-
tion of Mckinley, now inclines to tho
belief that his lead is too great to be
overcome. 1t says:
1t is beginning to be doubtful, how.
ever, whether Major Mckinley has not
been given too long lead. Elk.
pcrienced runners in u long race allow
the novice to make the pace and LET
him get good lead, assured that In
the finish he will break down and allow
them to pass to the front. Sometimes
they make an error of Judgment, and,
allowing their rival too much of lead,
find themselves unable to come up with
him before the finish, though able to
beat him. 1t is at least possible that
the political leaders have made this
mistake with Major Mckinley. They
could have beaten him il they had
started in timo, but no has already
almost majority OF tho convention
pledged TO or instructed for him, and
may win on the first ballot. before time
has been given for the making of
deals But the issue is doubtful at
best. Many of Major McKinIey's dele
gates are from the South, and Southern
delegates are hard tu hold. Mr.. Quay
we know-for he himself hath said it
is opposed 10 the use Of money in
politics, but it is possible he may have
wicked partners who will convert tho
Southern delegates. According to
Major McKinley's managers, he only
has to obtain l24 votes from 313 dele.
gates yet TO be chosen and from So un.
pledged delegates already elected. That
looks like an easy task, but, bearing in
mind other contests for the nomination
IN national conventions, il must be
conceded that the confident leader is
worry likely TO be set aside There is,
moreover, good reason why Mr.. Me-
klnley should fail. The convention is
expected to pronounce unreseryedly for
sound money. and Mr.. Mckinley would
not present suitable figure on that
platform. His attitude would be that
of straddler.
1t IS on account of McKinley's un.
stable financial attitude that the
Ledger is opposing his nomination.
1t agrees with him in his protection
sentiments but does not like the man.
nor in which he is practically commit
ting himself to tho free coinage of
silver. But it is his alliance with the
advocates of FREQ silver coinage that is
giving him such strength, and though
the Ledger may not like it, it is hard
to see how his defeat can be accom-
plished. The allied forces Of protection
and free silver coinage are likely to
control the st. Louis convention, and
Mckinley seems TO be their natural
and logical choice.

Emperor William does not often exer-

he shows the parsons with unerring GER
tainty that there is a limit to their pow

Ammin, in Pomerania, refused the
right of Christian burial to the wife of
a respectable citizen, who had drowned
herself. The unfortunate woman had
been previously adjudged insane. DR..
Scipio, a preacher of Stettin, offered to
officiate at the funeral, but Zetlow for
bade him to do so. Thereupon the wild
over sent telegram to the emperor,
stating the facts in the case. His majes-

DIR. Storker's party will continue to op-
crate on the lines of his original party,

and backing UP the Jew-baiters. Dr.
Storker has rallied quite number of
respectable men to his party and an
