forerunucr Of certain defeat, in view o.

on the statements Of some OF the West
en leaders suggests the name OF Senator
John w Daniel ~ Virginia, as COM

West, and The Richmond Times, one Ok
the ablest edited papers In the South,
thinks Daniels nomination would be a
solution OF the problem which now
copfronts the Democratic party. and

gifted son upon the Democratic
party ana the proprioty Of making
him their standard-bearer in the ao-
preaching Presidential campaign I'm mo
