OF The hand fire engine the place was
saved from utter destruction. Mr.. SutrO
built tho place in 1869 and it was IN this
house that most of his plans for the great

building were all the consultations held
that resulted in his victorious fight which
finally resulted in the -~acAieNmcut of his
plans.

Mr.. G. vey Holman, of Rockland,
has given some political views to corres-
pendent of the Rockland Courier Gazette.
He is against l6 TO /, but is Democrat
still. He thinks the Democratic party
has splendid chance to win out in the
forthcoming presidential contest, al
though heathinks that somebody beside
Bryan should he nominated aud the cur
rency question should be made subordi-
nate issue. His preference for presi
Dental nominee is ex-senator German of
Maryland, who would not be distasteful
to the sonnd money men of the East, and
yet. who did not estrange himsslf from
the party when the Chicago plstform.
was adopted. Tammany would be for
German and the East would go long
way toward helping elect him one year
from next November. The report that
his health would notsallow him to engage
in such big political contest is entirely
unfouuded as Mr.. Holman knows from
assurances of those near to the throne.
Mr.. Holman favors Schley as the tail end
candidate Of the ticket but if German
should be successful this would of course
be out OF the question as the convention
would hardly select the whole ticket
from ono state. While Mr.. Holman does
lot look favorably upon Mir. Bryan's can
didacy, he knows that the Nebraskan
will have more cas- tern strength in the
next convention than he did In 1896. This
is easily accounted for by the fact that
the free silver Democrats will have full
voice in the selection Of the delegates,
except in New York state. the machinery
of which is in the hands of the Gold
Standard Democracy. The question OF ex-
pansion will naturally be prominent ia
sue although Mr.. Holman does not know
what form 1T will take in the Democratic
National convention. He believes that
the administration will have solved the
difficulty in the Philippines by one year
from now and that the people of this
country will have tired of the burden i'm
posed by heavy war taxes.

Postmaster General Smith in his Omaha
speech said that had the treaty been
promptly and unanimously ratified there
would have been no confiiot in the Philip
pines. That Is Mr.. Smiths opinion, but
when he states 1t as fact he states what
neither hs nor any other man can know.
great many people. some of them quite
as we'll qualified to judge as MIR. Smith,
believe that If the treaty had been amend
ed before 1t was ratified or accompanying
lite ratification had been a declaration
such as we made in regard to Cuba, there
would have been no outbreak of hostilf-
ties. Tho fact 10 that in all the attempts

there Is iittle real effort to get at the truth.

Mr.. Smith says it was the Senate that

Senate. He would not hold Mr.. Davis
or MIR. Frye or any other friend OF the
treaty are in any degree responsible, and
yet 1t is fact that these men delayed the
treaty more than Its opponents. Mr..
smith makes grave error in saying that
the treaty was sent to tine Senate in De-
Gem ber AS matter of fact it was not laid

10. 1t was then held week by the oom-
mittee on foreign relations, practically all
of whom were its friends, and two
of whom had helped to make it. Neither
that delay nor the delay in sending it to
the Senate can be charged to the anti-im-
peralists. Il was not until the twelfth
Of January that the committee laid the
treaty before the Senate for debate. III
was ratified on February 9th. Now If
this delay had all been due to the op-
ponents of the treaty ii could not fairly
be said that they had been guilty OF un-
duly retardlng vbts. But as matter of
fact only a small part OF it can
fa'kly be attributed to them.
