SOME HOPE YET.

J. S. Van Antwerp, formerly corre-
spondent of the Journal at Washington,
and now doing a general Washington
correspondence, writes some North Da-
kota political gossip from the national
capital. Van says there is no question
but Major Mckinley will have the en-
dorsement of the North Dakota repub-
licans in the next national convention
and, indeed-with Mckinley wool and
the prospects for wheat and other pro-
ducts in North Dakota this year-this
seems like m easy prophesy-when
Van says:
There will be no difficulty whatever
about Maj. Mckinley securing the dele
cation from North Dakota next year.
He is further advised that the state is
now in such a prosperous condition that
it will be a benefit to him and his party
and that the majority for him in 1896
in that state will be increased any
where from 1000 to 5000 votes. All
this information has come to Maj. Nc
Kinley through the national republican
committee, which has it's Headquarters
in Washington.
The character of the North Dakota
delegation in congress is also alluded
to in the following:
President Mckinley is highly graft
fed and anticipates hearty support
from the North Dakota delegation in
the next congress-. He is aware of the
fact that the newly elected Senator
McCumher Of Wahpcton will give him
hearty support in all issues that may
be brought before the senate ut the
coming session. The president is also
satisfied that Representative Spalding
of Fargo will support all measures al
vOcated by the administration in the
5Gth congress-. 1t will be the first time
since North Dakota was admitted as a
state that the administration has had.
or will have had. satisfactory support
from the delegation from North Da-
kOta.
Van also believes that after Congress-
man Spalding has had e~Xpcrience-he
will make as good a representative as
Congressman Johnson-who. he SAYS.
"retired to give Mr.. Spalding a seat
extremely magnanimous act on the
part of the cOngreSSman-whOSc hon
eyed magnanimity WAS probably de-
posted by the senatorial bar-which
deprived congress of of the nations
truly great men. And certainly if
Congressman Spalding becomes us
great a man as Congressman Johnson
Was-in his own estimation-there'n he
non greater. Van thinks. too. that
Johnson will be a candidate again for
the senate against lIanSbrough when
the latter's term expires. so there is
hope yet that johnson
