THERE is much uncasiness among
the more conservative men in con-
gress, regardless Of party, because OF
the apparent certainty that Governor
Mckinley win be nominated by the
Republicans for the presidency. The
older members OF congress have not
forgotten the scandals which noated
around Washington when the McKin-
ley tariff bill was being prepared by
the house way and means committee,
OF which Governor Mckinley was then
chairman. IL was charged that a
clique Of wealthy manufacturers abso-
lutely controlled the making OF such
portions OF that bill as they were di.
rectly interested in, which resulted in
making the duties on many articles
outrageously high-much higher than
was needed for legitimate protection
and finally resulted as everybody
knows, in the defeat Of the Republi-
oans and the repeal nf the Mckinley
law. These men fear that Governor
Mckinley Is under the domin7 tion Of
those gteecy manufacturers, who care
Tor nothing but their own profit. II
Mckinley doesn't get that nomination,
IL will be largely because OF this con-
servative element working quietly
against him.
