MISSISSIPPI LEADS IN THE MOVE
MENT FOR THE Ex-sECRE-
TARY,
THE LATTER HAS PENNSYLVANIA
And His Friends Declare That He

JACKSON, Miss, Feb. lit has
been rumored for some time that
there was a movement in this state on
foot IN the interests Of William c.
Whitney, Of New York, for the Demo
cratic nomination for president Last
December William S. McAllister. who
held the position of general director
of the Southern educational campaign
under the Democratic national commit
tee, at New York, in the campaign
Of 1892, OF which Mr.. Whitney was a
member, published a communication and
had 1t extensively circulated in the
Southern and Eastern states. Mr. Whit
ney's name was not mentioned in Mr..
McAllister's manifesto, but it has been
understood by those close to him that
1t was a move in the interest of Whit
nev for president.
McAllister enlisted in this movement
the leading men in the state on both
sides Of the financial question, the free
siverites joining it for the sake Of ex-
pedency 1t has taken definite form in
the last few days by the circulation
OF calls in different parts of the state,
which were numerously signed, urging
Whitney to enter the race. One of
these calls was today circulated in both
houses of the legislature, and a ma
Jcrity signed it. Tomorrow they pro-
pose to issue an address to the country
setting forth the Importance of con-
cessions as a basis of harmony in the
Democratic party, the Importance OF
winning the next national election,
Wbitney's availability, ETC., and for
mally calling upon him to allow his
name to be used.

mouths Of representatives Of all parties,
does the foreign policy asserted by Mr..
Cleveland receive vindication such as
has seldom if ever been accorded in
history by one nation to another that
had made an issue against it. The ex-
preston Of opinion is unanimous. By
one bold act, by the assertion Of the
Monroe doctrine with all that it i'm
plies, by having the courage that BELTS
one Of the great powers Of the world.
have we compelled the assent Of our
chief opponent to the policy which
alone is worthy Of US. Once more BRAY
cry sets a crown upon the nations
forehead. And where the towards and
faint-hearts were calling attention to
our unprotected coasts, and telling Of
the dire work that a British fleet might
do, behold, the mere assertion Of our
dignity and the consciousness Of our
might have compelled a willing ac-
quiescence with our just demands.
Never in our history has there been SO
signal victory won. Never have our
power and prestige been so advanced
The flag Of the United States Is the
symbol of power over the American
continent, and Europe has no opposi-
ton to offer to the assertion Of our
rights. This is day for those wretched,
fawning, craven, pusillanimous souls,
who have been terrifying the
timid with visions of blood and
slaughter, and crawling on quak-
ing bellies before the mighty
ones Of the old world to avert
the quick calamities that were to fall
upon us, willing to sacrifice anything
for an inglorious and captive peace, to
hide their heads in utter ignominy.
With us they have fallen too low for
contempt: and a government which
represents at least a nation Of brave
men spurns their coward humiliation,
and extends the hand of friendship to
a nation that knows how to demand
and to protect it's own. 1t is for the
American people to think better Of
Great Britain from this day. There will
be no war, because our demands are
just and none dare say them nay. It
is fitting that on this national holiday
all the bells should ring and banners
fly in salutation to the victory of a
foreign policy worthy of our race and
name, and of our conceded position
as mistress Of the Western
world.

MINNESOTA SOLDIERS, HOME.
Trustees Find Everything There In
Excellent Shape.

The eenli-annual meeting of the
trustees Of the Minnesota Soldiers
home was held at the administration
building at Minnehaha Falls at II
o'clock yesterday morning. OF the
trustees there were present President
II. "A. Castle and I. II. Beebee, of ST.
Paul; ex-Gov. Lucius F. Hubbard, of
Red Wing; John A. Gilman, OF Mime
apons; L. L. Baxter Of Fergus Falls,
and George LIE Vague. W. B. Dun
nell, the architect of the several build
1ngs erected by the board; DR.. Higbee,
the examining surgeon for Ramsey
county, Dr. c. H. Norred, the ex-
arnfning surgeon for t1enepin county.
the soldiers home committee of
the Minnesota department of the G. A.
r., George w. Lewis and J. H. Alb
bott, were also present.
The number of old soldiers enrolled
at the home is 402, of whom 552 arc
actually present at this time. The vari-
Gus reports Of the officers were ex-
amined and the finances of the institu-
ton were found to be in better shape
than at any senli-annual period in the
history Of the home. Since the last
meeting of the trustees the new cot
tage. designed particularly as a home
Tor ola and antrim members, was COM
pleted. This building was authorized
and the money appropriated for it by
the last legislature, and 1t practically
completes the buildings as at first
planned. The home is not crowded.
and there is room, in the opinion of
MT. Gilman, for at least 100 more old
veterans, in case they are crowded
pretty close together.
During the last year a large amount
or improvement has been carried on
by the inmates without any cost to the
institution. A little fort was built of
stone quarried out of a road leading
to the steam plant, and an application
has been made to the war department
for two cannon, which will be fur
ntshed as soon as a bond for the safe
return to the government, in case they
are called for. is given. One of the
improvements planned for next summer
Is pavilion and lookout on the point
below the Administration building.
inns is TO be something large enough
Tor dances, and will cost about S., 900.
The G. A. +. committee paid especial
attention to the complaints Of any of
the old soldiers who were not salts
ned with the arrangements. They
looked over the culinary arrangements
and found everything neat, clean and
wholesome. The inmates, as rule,
say they were never better cared for.
ana, with only a few exceptions, they
are perfectly satisfied.
One of the new features INSPECTED
was the electric lighting plant. This
is located in the boiler room, and fur
nlshes light for the grounds and the
interior of the buildings as well. It
was installed at cost of about $1,000.

To the Editor of the Globe.

~ EultOr the GlOD0.
I trust that I will not be considered
as intrudtng publicly upon the sacred
ness Of a private grief when I ask lib
erty to say in your columns what so
many feel, that the people Of st. Paul
have sustained loss as great and as
real in the death of Mrs. Thomas Will
son, of this city,, as if it were one Of
our prominent citizens whom we were
called upon to mourn. Mrs. Wilson'S
intellectual qualities attracted, as the
warmth Of her heart and the charm Of
her manner held the admiration of all
who knew her. She was a woman
whose mental requirements were as
rare as they were. unobtrusive She
was interested and well informed upon
all the living questions Of the day.
Her sympathies were as keen and ac-
tive as her Judgment and her chart
ties were liberal and constant Best of
all, she was a woman of the noblest
ideals, with full confidence that the
world was working toward and would
realize the best Such a woman. with
her life centered in the happiest of
homes, yet reached out and touched a.
multitude Of other lives, always with
a quickening and uplifting influence.
A-life like this Is worth more in the
world than many of the achievements
that brought to public notice, make
fame. To those that it touches most
nearly it is a benediction; to those who
but look upon 1t from the wider dis
lance Of a mere acquaintance it brings
something of inspiration.

BOTH SIDES WEAKEN.
Three Republicans Break From
Hunter in Kentucky.

FRANKFORT. KY, Feb. n.-Three Republic
an members today led a break from Hunter
with view to creating a stampede to some
other Republican. Blackburn seems weaker
among the Democrats and the Republicans
hoped concessions might be made resulting in
the election of Republican. The Republicans
who struck were Senators Carpenter, Hissen
and Humans. Senator Hissen, explaining his
action, said he felt that his first belief that
Hunter could be elected was wrong, and be-
lieving the deadlock could be broken,
he would cast his vote for ex-Chief
Justice Holt, who, he believed. could be elect
ed Senator Humans voted for A. ]. Cochran,
of Maysville, and Senator Carpenter voted for
Judge B. F. Bennett, of Greenup. Neither
made an explanation of his vote. Populist
Poor voted for Bate. The vote stood: Hunter,
81; Blackburn IS; scattering, 9. The major
ity of Republicans are inclined to stick to
Hunter.

100000 OF promises to pay, which are
the source Of all the mischief, and which
the representatives of the people stub
bornly refuse to retire. It is costly
lesson that the people Of this country

ton seems to be how far they will go
on the road to ruin before they heed
the plain moral that It teaches.

SOLID FOR QUAY.
Pennsylvania's Vote at the Sena-
tors Disposal.

tors Disposal.
HARRISBURG, Pa, Feb. 11.-Gov.
Hastings tonight gave out the follow
ing statement relative to Senator
Quay's candidacy for the presidency:
II am for Quay if he is a candidate.
Some time ago Quay assured me that
If | desired the vote of the delegation
from Pennsylvania in the next national
convention he would be for me. This
I declined. / knew there was no show
for my nomination and was not hunt
ing for compliments. Senator Quays
candidacy would have twofold support
in Pennsylvania. 1t would unite the
party and it would help to dispel the
idea broad in the country that, because
Pennsylvania is the leading Republl
can protection state in the Union and
always safe. therefore she should never
have a presidential candidate.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 11.-Senator
Quay, when questioned today, said
that the interview made public by
State Treasurer-elect Haywood, plac-
ing him in the field for president, was
unauthorized, and he made the posi-
tive declaration that he was not a
candidate for the presidency, but ad-
mitted that he had done nothing to
discourage the movement nor could
he, to use his own language, prevent
the boys from voting for him if they
felt so disposed.
Ex-Cengressman Mcdowell, of Penn
sylvania, says Quay will have the
solid delegation from the state at the
st. Louis convention.
HARRISBURG, Pa. Feb. 11-State Treas
urer-elect Haywood returned to Harrisburg
today from Washington. While there he at
tended conference at which it was decided
to persent the name Of Senator Quay to the
national Republican convention at st. Louis.
