For Second Place.

IF conclusions may be drawn from
what is happening at places where
men meet who worked for free coin
age in 1896, Bryan appears to be, with
all of them, the accepted leader for
next years struggle. The effort that
started in New York to bring some new
candidate into prominence seems not to
have achieved results thus far that can
be considered satisfactory to those who
promoted them.
According to all accounts, the pro-
posed outburst for Van Wyck at Tam
many's rally on the Fourth was an ex-
plosion of the wrong sort-harmless for
everybody except the man it was in
tended to help. No other name has
been seriously pressed, except that our
Senator Carter has, in several recent
interviews. fingered over the fact that
Mr. German, We're the democrats to
nominate him, would be a dangerously
strong candidate. Whether the Mon
taHa senator is merely trying to toss
bouquets to Mr.. German or whether he
is aiming TO get the democrats away
from Bryant doth not yet appear.
1t will not be current popular belief
that Mr.. Carter is hoping that the dem
ocrats will put up a formidable candi-
date.
Lately, whenever groups of those who
supported silver in 1896 are brought to-
Eether. the talk concerns the vice pres
Idency rather than the first place on
next years democratic ticket, II
transpires that several well-known
men would like to try 1t on for second
place. AS the result of the recent con-
ference of free-coinage people at Co
lumbus, Ohio, several names are
brought TO public notice. They have it
that John r. Mclean would like TO run
for the vice presidency and that the
talk of him for this years democratic
candidacy for governor of Ohio 10 a

It's Rather Odd.

II S the result of a press dispatch
printed yesterday morning,
there will be general desire
to know more about Rev. Clay Nc
Cauley. He is in Japan. He is the
writer of a letter to the Boston Tran
script in which he declares that Dewey
said to him: Rather than make a war
Of conquest on the Filipino people, /
would take up anchor and sail out of
the harbor''
Rev. Clay McCauley also makes men,
ton of General Otis. He said, so the
clergyman AYERS: II was ordered to
this post from San Francisco. did
not believe in the annexation of these
islands when l came here, nor do be-
lieve in their annexation now" Mr..
McCauley also says that in a letter
addressed to the president he predicted
the fighting that has since taken place
All these things might be and not
overcome us like a summer cloud, yet
the McCauley incident is calculated
to start up good deal of comment.
The first impulse will be to assume that
in all probability neither Dewey nor
Otis said what is imputed to them. For
that matter, they had a right ito say
these things-although it may be that
the code runs against what is alleged
to have been said by Dewey. But ones
first impulse, recognizing both of these
officers as discreet men, is to doubt
whether they had the alleged free-and-
easy conversations with any civilian.
From this newspapers standpoint, a
protest against conquest would be al
together worthy of Admiral Dewey
and characteristic of him. So, also,
from the Standards point of view
sentiments hostile to annexation would
do credit to Otis. But when 1t comes to
the words imputed to these officers
while not raising question as to the
integrity of the Boston transcripts
witness, the public will be inclined to
wait for more evidence.

20 EASLEY is the statesman whose

alton of his service in public
v1ife by burning him in effigy. His ca
.reer in craftsmanship is now in court
Beasley himself put it there by bring
ing an action at law against these
aforesaid neighbors and fellow citizens.
An incident in these court proceed
dngs was an examination of Beasley,
conducted last Friday at Big Timber,
his place of residence This Testimony
is simply "a preliminary process. 1t
settles nothing: it is a part of a law
suit, and, therefore, not in shape for
newspaper summing-up. At the same
time, the testimony serves one present
purpose; it shows how strangely care
less some men are with their money,
For one reason or another, the ex-
animation conducted last Friday dealt
largely with Beasley's cash account
The report of the testimony is thai
when he was running for the legisla-
ture he was in funds to the extent of
about six thousand dollars-so he says
He also says that he took about three
thousand dollars with him to Helena.
He had the money in large bills, one or
two $1,000 bills among them, but he did
not remember where he had received
them nor what he did with them. His
memory was very deficient in money
matters He could not remember any
time or place where he had received or
paid out any $1,000 bills.
That is an interesting paragraph, IL
illustrative of the bulk of Beasley's tes-
timony. On its merits, we repeat, this
evidence Is not to be dealt with at pres
emit is part of pending court pro-
ceedings. But outside of the law part
of it this testimony has a moral which
people who intend to be prudent ought
Instantly to seize upon. How careless
1T is for man having three thousand
dollars, two thousand at least of it in
thousand-dollar bills, to permit himself
to get so engrossed in the business of
the state that few weeks later he
can't recall where 66 % per cent. of
his three thousand dollars came from
or whittier it went
Really, as a public servant, Beasley
deserves criticism for being so mighty
careless with thousand dollar bills. He
is as flip about them as If his thousand
dollar bills came easy.

Song of the Vacation Trunk.

Now the trunk,
Mighty trunk.
Leaves it's dusty attic bunk;
Gleefully the maiden hears it
Pumping down the stair; but fears 1t
Will not hold
Her manifold
Pink shirt waists and fimsy wrappings
Bathing suits and gay head trappings;
Ribbons, slippers, gaudy bows,
Lingerie and function clothes.
Linen skirts and silken hose,
Outing suits and goodness knows
What shall finally be sunk
In the Saratoga trunk.
Note her smile,
Troubled smile,
AS she contemplates the pile
That somehow must be included
Ere her closets are denuded;
Mark the haste
And the taste,
With which she finds location
For each stunning new creation;
See her place them here and there
With a woman's loving care,
Stuffing in all that she dare,
From her labors she doth rest.
When everything inside Is pressed.
Hear the lone
Lifting on the load of stone:
See him vanish without speaking,
Ample reinforcements seeking;
Hear the crash
And the smash
AS they dump it in the wagon
Then adjourn to quaff fiagon;
See the sturdy horses strain
AS they haul it to the train;
Hear the baggageman profane
Say that summers come again
When he hears the loud ki-plunk
OF the Saratoga trunk;
See the rude
Summer dude
Greet it in ecstatlc mood;
Note the envious maidens eye IT,
And in whispers soft decry 1t,
Though they be
Impatiently
Waiting for its swift unpacking,
Just to see if aught is lacking;
While its owner scarce can wait
To display its precious weight;
But, although we lightly pirate
OF this much-containing crate.
! Let merry toast be drunk
| To the Saratoga trunk!

idea abroad that the American girl is
chiefly available for her monetary possess

as happy idea of the Colorado commits

Questions

Hon w. B. Bate. United States
senator from Tennessee is stop
ping in the city for a number of days,
on his way to California where he goes
to visit his daughter.
In conversation with HER
AID representative this afternoon, he
said that he had always refrained from
being interviewed after leaving con-
gress, and while he entertained dis
tinctive views on all the leading sub
iects which were now agitating the
minds of the American people he never
gave expression to them through the
newspapers. although he always felt
kindly disposed toward the press.
FRIEND TO Ell PASO.
Senator Bate is we'll known in this
city. He is one OF the stockholders
in the Ell Paso street railway
Paso. He WIS instrumental in getting
the custom house here and took an
active part in the work in congress for
securing the international dam.
This morning Senator Bate, Mayor
Magoffin, Max Weber, Zach White,
and Gen. Arson Mills held aconfer-
ence at the Office of II. B. Stevens,
treasurer of the street railway. just
what was its object
could not be learned, but it is said that
the meeting between Senator Bate and
Gen. Mills was accidental and had
nothing to do with the big dam
scheme.
Senator Bate was reelected to sue
coed himself as senator from Tennes-
see last March. He had already served
two terms. He owns property in Ell
Paso and holds large landed interests
in the panhandle.
