CHICAGO, Aug. 24.-The Times-Her-
aid special from Washington says +:
Rear Admiral R. w. Meade, U. 8. NJ.
retired, will be a candidate for com
mander-in chief of the Grand Army of
the Republic at the St. Paul encamp-
ment in September. He is a member
of Lafayette post of New York, and
will be supported by that post and sew.
eral other posts in the East. Admiral
Meade has a record of As years service
in the navy of the United States, and
his comrades Of Lafayette post urge it
as a strong reason why he should be
elected commander-in-chief Another
reason urged by Lafayette post is that
although it has on its roll of member.
ship the names of more prominent men
than any other similar organization, it
has never before sought Office for one
of its members.

Cen.erville Chronicle: William b
Sterling, OF Omaha, the boy orator OF
South Dakota, is expected to be in this
state some little time during the cam
paign and will undoubtedly give several
addresses. Mr.. Sterling is only 30 years
OF age, but is the best speaker IN the
state to-day. Why should not a debate
between VIM j. Bryan, the boy orator
OF the Platte, be arranged for in th,s
state: 1t would be intensely interesting
and the republicans would have no feal
Tor the outcome.
