WHY THEY COMPLAIN.
Reasons For Which the Democrats OPP
pose Senator Hanna.

Reasons For Which the Democrats Op.
pose Senator Hanna.
There is an mcessant horn blowing
in the Democratic an disorderly
sheets throughout the country against
Lark Hanna. The row itself is a
nasty noise, unseemly and outrageous
There is a bowling, squealing, snort
ing, shedding of froth and caricature
by pen and pencil about and of Sen
ator Mark A. Hanna of Ohio. This is
eminent usefulness of Mr. Hanna.
What is it he has done to arouse so
much animosity, and about which the
professors of enmity toward him make
such a row? The concert they
get up includes the wall of wildcats,
the long-drawn cry of wolves-hungry
wolves at that, the music of the rat
tlesnake, the snuffling of cranks They
are all after Mr.. Hanna, and the cold,
skinny crawling of copperheads, husky
yells of anarchists, representatives Of
the evil conditions of Europe, are fea-
lures of the Internal circus. All seem
to be personally offended by Mr.. Han
ma. What is the matter with Hanna!
He is the man who made correct
diagnosis of the conditions of the ma
tional contest of 1896, and was the gen.
eralissimo of the forces that elected
Mckinley and Hobart, president and
vice president; carried the house by a
strong majority and afterward gained
northwestern states so that the Re-
publicans have majority in the SEN
ate. Mr.. Hanna more than any other
man saved the public credit of this
country, and that was worth thou
sands of millions of dollars to the peo-
pie, and preserved the prosperity with
the honor of the nation. That's what
is the matter with Hanna.

The United States acquired the Phil

WASHINGTON, September 80. 1899

WASHINGTON, September 80. 1899
No man is more deeply interested in
the preparations for Admiral Dewey q
welcome to Washington, now all com
pleted, than President Mckinley, who,
in addition to being an old personal
friend of the Admiral, has boundless
admiration for the manner in which he
performed his difficult duties as CON-
mander of the Asiatic Squadron from
the day he entered Manila Bay and de-
stroyed the Spanish fl set to the day he
left for home. There is also another
reason why President Mckinley is glad
that Dewey is coming to Washington
He has another position for him to i'll
that of adviser-in-chief on Philippine
affairs which is an important one, al
though it will carry no official title. The
President has not determined upon a
Philippine policy, further than to put
down the rebellion and restore law and
order on the islands. He has absolute
confidence in Admiral Dewey's judg.
ment, and there is little doubt that his
advice will be powerful factor in de.
Gliding what the Philippine policy
of the President will be after
peace has been restored; and the
fact that Admiral Dewey will be the
Presidential adviser will be likely to
to cause Congress, the members of which
have the same confidence in him that
everybody feels, to endorse whatever
Philippine policy may be finally deter
mined upon.
There is possibility that Admiral
Dewey may join the Presidents party
in the trip to the West, which will fol-
low the Washington welcome, but as
yet it is only possibility, because Ad-
miral Dewey's wishes have not been as
certained, and the President desires him
to follow his own wishes in the matter,
believing that he has fully earned that
right, although he will be delighted
should the Admiral decide to 60, as will
the people OF the section to be visited by
the party.
q lite number of officials went over
to New York to participate in the well
come to Dewey, Assistant Secretary Al
len, of the Navy Department, being the
special representative OF the Secretary
of the Navy. 1t was decided some time
ago that no member OF the Cabinet
should 60, being deemed more fitting
that the entire Cabinet should stay in
Washington with the President to re

THURMAN'S TRITE SAYING.
How cold Roman" Come to Charact erize
McLean's Littleness.


The older Democrats of Ohio re-
member that Allen G. Thurman, "the
old Roman" would have been nomi-
mated for president in 1884 instead of
Grover Cleveland had it not been for
the efforts of one man. At a vital mo-
ment in the convention John r. Nc
Lean, to satisfy his pique over the
manner In which Thurman refused to
accept dictation from The Enquirer
office, broke the Ohio delegation, and
Thurman was defeated.
1t was this treachery of Mclean to-
ward Thurman which led "the old
Roman" to remark shortly afterward:
when an Ohio man reaches the
height of four feet and half, Johnny
Mclean always wants to cut a couple
of inches off his legs"
This year it will be the loyal friends
Of Thurman, Pendleton and Ward who
will take pleasure in clipping few
inches off Johnny's legs.
