Two Special Trains Leave for Omaha

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1O.-The Washington
official party which is to attend the Omaha
exposition started to-day, going by two
separate trains over the Pennsylvania and
the Baltimore & Ohio Railroads. Their
itineraries are so arranged that the two
parties will arrive at Chicago and later at
Omaha close to each other. The presidential
party left via the Pennsylvania Railroad at
8 o'clock. The train was a handsome one of
four cars, including the sleepers Socrates
and Drimio, the dining car Gilsey and the
combination car Brutus. At Canton, where
the train will arrive at $40 tonight, the
Campania, with President Mckinley, was
ATTACHED. The party is scheduled to arrive
From the Baltimore & Ohio station the
other train left few minutes after o'clock.
Aboard it were General Miles and other
army officers, the members of the diplomatic
corps and the representatives of the press.
The train was made up of combination
a dining car and also private car.

items have issued from Republican rule, and
they will have the weight and credit which
always attach to agreeably accomplished
facts as against pessimistic theories. There
Icre, we look for reversal of the usual
year" experience and a pronounced in
dorsement at the congressional elections of
president Mckinley and the party in power.
Few papers in the country have published
as much sensational matter about the all
leged inefficiency and the abuses in camps
and hospitals as the Dispatch. Editorially,
the Dispatch has exploited many of the
charges, consequently the following extract
from the same editorial is worthy of at
tention:
1t may be said. Will not the prolonged
fire OF criticism upon the War Department
for mismanagement of details have some
effect-or are there not votes likely to be
alienated by the threatened wholesale an
nexation policy? We do not think these
nor do we think they should. Much of the
criticism of Alger and the War Department
has been severe and richly deserved, but it
Is folly to hold President Mckinley or the
leaders of the party irretrievably response
bic for errors or incompetency of a weak
subordinate. 1t is eminently right and in
the interests of the public, and, for that
matter. OF the Republican party itself, that
every blunder arising out of neglect and
lnaDlllLy at washington should De exposed
and condemned and the offender mercilessly
exposed; but this should not obscure the
general result Of the war, which was sweep
ing victory, won within a very short Pc
Rod.
The Dispatch does not miss any occasion
to assail Republicans like Senators Hanna,
Ekins, Platt and Representative Grosvenor.
Assuming dissatisfaction on the part of
many Republicans with the conduct of such
men, the Dispatch, in the article from
which the foregoing quotations are taken,
says that these men will not dictate the
policy of the party in regard to the Spanish
possessions, which will be at the disposition
of Congress, nor should the objection to a
few prominent men obscure the achieve
ments of the Republican party. On this
subject, the Dispatch says:
Back, however, of even the strong con-
sderations above noted, is the overwhelm-
ing one that nationally the Republican
party stands alone, identified with the pros
perity of the United States. 1t has views
and our finances which have been tested
and found good. That is an overwhelming
argument for the return of congressional
majority. The Democratic party, on the
other hand, is practically without national
policy. Those it has hitherto paraded have
either been tried and found wanting, as its
anti-protection fad, or have been totally re-
jected as too fagrantiy foolish for trial,
as in the case of Organism and free silver.

]LOSES UP THE DEAL

A. B. Hulit, who has successfully en-
gineered a mammoth Indian colonial
ton scheme in Mexico left Sunday for
the Indian Territory where he will close
up the deal. He says that there is no
longer any doubt of its success as a
large number of Indians have already
signed the agreement and the rest will
sign at a big convention to be held
soon.
Few people appreciate the magnitude
of the scheme. 1t involves an expendi-
ture of 10000 600 and the transfer of as
many acres of Mexican land and trans
fers from the protection of the govern
ment of the United States 5000 Indian
families.
For four years Mr.. Hulit has been at
work on his mammoth undertaking. He
received his first cue through a discov-
cry that a large number of the Choc-
taw Indians were not satisfied with the
situation in the Indian Territory. He
