Conditions Surrounding Them Puz-
zling the Politicians.
TREND OF POPULAR SENTIMENT
No Party Issue on the Subject of
National Aggrandizement.
SOME SURFACE INDICATIONS

The conditions surrounding the congress
SIGNAL elections this fall are so utterly un-
Ike any in past experience that the most
clever politicians arc puzzled in their efforts
to foreshadow the result. Before the war
with Spain was declared republicans were
generally ready to concede that the next
House of Representatives would probably
be democratic. However popular the theory
Of protection may be- tariff bills which in
crease taxation are likely to be unpopular
Immediately after their enactment into law
The democrats bad something like a hun-
died and fifty majority in the House the
Congress succeeding that which enacted
the Mckinley tariff law. Moreover, the
congressional election succeeding TIE cleo
ton OF a President is expected to be the
time for political reaction. Tre existence
and successful prosecution of the war
awakened TIE expectation of the rcpubli-
cans that they might be able to hold pos
session of the House. even in an of year
after the enactment ot Il tariff law. The
OreNlty of the Wal and the exaggerated
idea of the suffering it entailsd, it is feared
n S,y have neutralZCd the political advan-
t2ge that might 5e expected t. result from
the unbrnken success of the army and
navy. POlitIriaES are hewildered in trying
to determine how far one thing operating
upon another has charged the ordinary
course of things, one influence cOCnteract-
ing another. They arc unable to tell
whether the people are thinking most CT
the war or nj taxation and the issues of
lNo6, or whether Il they are thinking of
the war. they are concerned most in
temptation of the great military triumph
or of the sufferings which We're the price
of the triumph.

OUT FOR :
VALUABLE STAKES

There is much good coursing scheduled
for to-day at botn parks. AT 1ngleside
two stakes will be run-an event for dogs
that have not won third or better during
the past six months and a special cham
pion contest. At Union Park there Will
also be two stakes, a contest between
eight veterans and an all-age, open event
embracing hfty-six candidates.
The latter and the non winner stake at
Ingleside embrace many keen performers
and are of about the same quality, while
the champion stake at Ingleside has in
deed brought out champions. The run
ming at both parks will begin at the usual
hour and continue through tomorrow.
According to the talent False Flatterer
has a pipe cinch on the open stake at
Union Park. Still, the books are giving
to l against him.
Jim Edmonds has new one in at Union
to-day in Master Mate. AS he is up
against Minneapolis he must needs be a
good one to save entrance money.
Magoulto bids fair to run strongly at
Ingleside to-day. Last week he was tried
out with Duncan's Royal Chief and won.
Duncan alleged that his dog did not sst
a sufficiently long slip. They were put
in again, and this time the slipper held
the dogs until in response to his ques-
ton, Mr.. Duncan declared himself salts
fed. 1t was a remarkably long slip, but
again Magnetic won. Magnetic Is
only pup, but he is a Magnet pup, and
Magnets many victories at Ingleside long
since made him famous.

Park, a consolation event will also be
