~ HERE never was anything solid
or substantial for the so-called
Van Wyck presidential boom
to rest upon, and the announcement by
Judge Van Wyck himself that he will
under no circumstances permit his
name to be used as a presidential can
didate will surprise nobody who has
given him credit for possessing good
sense. Judge Van Wyck is one If those
New York democrats. who, like his
brother, the mayor of New York, gave
Bryan loyal support in the campo gn
of 1896. Doubtless, like Mr.. Croker
he has since come to better under
standing of Bryan and all that Bcyan
stands for. AS good democrat, a we'll
wisher of the party, Judge Van Wyck
recognizes Bryan as pre-eminently the
leader of democracy and it's logical
presidential candidate in 1900. All signs
point to a united. harmonious and ag-
gressive party next year.

IT is intimated in the press dispatches
that President Kruger is placing a
good deal of reliance on belief
that there is in England a strong un-
dercurrent of sentiment in his favor;
in other words that he is bracing up
his courage on the Aguinaldo plan
hoping for success and relief from
friends among the enemy But the two
cases are entirely dissimilar, and if
Kruger is the sharp-sighted statesman
that he is reputed to be, he cannot help
seeing thar in the event of war public
opinion in England would be solidlJ
against him. He would find little sym
pathy anywhere in the civilized world
He is in the wrong and he ought TO
have sense enough to know it. But the
Boer mind is obstinate and bulldog
gish to the last degree. If Kruger is
INDUCING the hope that at the last
moment England will be deferred from
going to war with the Transvaal by any
consideration of sympathy, he is MAX
ing the mistake of his life, The exist
ing circumstances justify Great B"it-
aims belligerency.

The Ohio Mix-Up.

& AMUEL c. JONES, mayor of To-
~ ledo, is squarely in the field as
candidate for the governorship
of Ohio. He is not the nominee of any
political party or convention-in fact
he cuts loose from all of them, and in
dependence of what he calls the gall
ing bondage of parties" is his battle
cry. Republican, democrat and popu
list all look alike to him. He repudi-
ates them all as partisans, but wants
the votes of all as men and citizens.
Jones is an Independent candidate
nominated by petition under the Aus
tralian ballot law, and he announces
his own platform. In brief it is for
the abolition of political parties, for
nominations directly by the people and
direct making of laws by the people,
1t advocates public ownership of public
utilities, including mines, highways,
railways, telegraphs. telephones, water,
gas and lighting plants, abolition of the
contract system on public works. also
of the employment of convict labor,
and the making of provision by the
legislature for the employment of those
who are unemployed. 49,.
This is essentially populsm with the
money question omitted, and the popu-
list organization condemned as use
less political factor Mr.. Jones says
nothing at all about Expansion" lin
perialism' or "miltarism," dealing solely
with internal questions. This, per-
haps, is shrewd move. Saying moth
ing about the two great questions that
pie, he may draw considerable strength
from both parties.
Mr.. Jones is a man of strong person
atty, and he has been popular with
the people of Northwestern Ohio. as is
proved by his election to the mayor
atty of Toledo. 1t is hardly possible
for him to be elected, but he will GER
tainly poll a considerable vote, and it
may have an important bearing upon
the fortunes of other candidates. He
has heretofore been a republican and
naturally he should draw the most sup
port from that party. 1t is probable
however that the major portion of his
vote will be given to him on personal
grounds, and it is quite uncertain from
what source this will chiefly come.
Meanwhile, John r. Mclean is an
active candidate for the democratic
nomination. He is the owner of the
Cincinnati Inquirer and report has il
that he has purchased one or two other
papers. Mr.. Mclean is wealthy man
and, if nominated, will undoubtedly
make a strong canvass. His earnest
desire to secure the nomination indi-
Gates degree of confidence on his
part and he is in a position to know
something of Ohio politics. The an
tipathy to Hanna among Ohio republi-
cans is well known. The war upon
Foraker has been inaugurated, and as
a matter of self-preservation, it looks
as if he and his friends must fight
back. All in all. the democratic party
of Ohio. if reasonably discreet, seems
to have at least a good fighting chance

Unpopularity of the War.

~ HE Boston Herald, which has
been one of the staunchest sup
porters imperialism has foun in
this country, confesses to grave doubt
as to the wisdom of the war in the
Philippines. 1T has seemed to u.s."
says that newspaper, land we have
been strengthened in that view by later
intelligence as regards the caTacity of
the Filipinos now directing the contest
in arms against our government-that
the statesmanlike course would have
been to conciliate this people. to induce
them to act in harmony with MS N the
formation of COVER lament for the
islands, and to give them an important
part in it, instead of approaching them
with the assertion of absolute control
as was done" The growing unpopG-
larity of the war is one of the striking
features of current political history
The conviction is being carried to the
most ardent expansionists that the war
was an unfortunate blunder. Popular
opinion is running strong against the
president and only a sp4edy te.mina-
ton of the war can turn it. The Boston
Herald, which we nave quoted and
which has been inclined to indorse Nc
kinley through thick and thin, frankly
says: THE president is less popular
in the country than Ire was. and the
people are more inclined to be m
patient under the wars pr,,cngation."

people are worldly. This fulflls at least
the first requisite of an epigram-it sounds
well.
