SPEAKER REEDS opinion of Quay and
Manley as Mckinley campaign mana
gers would make interesting reading.
Several weeks before the st. Louis
convention met Mr.. Reed had reason
to believe that Quay and Manley had
betrayed him to Hanna, and what has
happened since must have convinced
him of that fact. Both of these ex-
Reed men are now members of Hanna's
executive committee, and Quay is much
more than merely a member of that
committee. 1t has leaked out that
Quay will, from the New York head.
quarters, boss the entire campaign in
the eastern states; also, that he will
have exclusive charge of scheme by
which he hopes to carry several south
ern states. This last scheme is said to
depeud largely upon the support Of
boiling gold democrats in those states
for success, as it includes combina.
ton of that element with the negro
voters, upon both congressional and
electoral tickets. 1t was intended that
this scheme should be kept dark.
