England's commercial prosperity as
they say at the expense of this coun-

tectionists see nothing but disaster in

After all, there Is vast deal of
uncertainty as to the outcome of the
st. Louis convention. McKinlev's
managers count and claim votes
enough to give him the nomination..
but there is no assurance that every
delegate thus counted will stick to
him, or in view of the possibility of
an unsound platform, even cast one
vote for him. The OHIO mans
managers have tremendous task
before them at the convention in
mastering the delegates which they
now so positively assert are in line
for them. and the outcome may be
