o
publican politicians Of high and low de-
gree have inaugurated an energetic propa-
ganda back n the persistent report that the
Independent IS to forces which co-operat-
ed under the banner of the National Silver
Party in the campdiga of 1896 are rapidly
disintegrating, and that each element will
make its own fight this year In support
oil this assertion the Gvowed dissatisfaction
OF the FoPulist organizations in Indiana
Nebraska. Texas. and other Western
States with Colonel Bryan and the Demo-
cratic organization is being used as a con-
vincing argument 1t is said that Chair
man Lane. Of the National Silver Party's
Executive Committee, has been in cor
respondence with Democratic leaders in
Washington Oh this subject for the past
three weeks, and that he is expected TO
come all the way from his home in Cali
iornia to- confer with Colonel Bryan and
other Democratic leaders in this city about
the middle OF the month. 4 result OF this
conference It is said, will be a ringing
ADDRESS issued by Chairman Lane to all OF
the varying free silver element TO leave
the Organization represented by him and
flock TO the Democratic standard as the
only emblem Of effective opposition to the
gold monometaliism now boldly espoused
by the Republican party. II is said further
that Chairman Lane will advice his old
colleagues to ignore the detail of ratio in
tue forthcoming fight and simply square
the issue Of bimetallism. It is hoped by this
appeal to check the spirit Of independence
which the Republican managers are ad-
roitly fostering among the different seets
OF silverites and strengthen the lines Of
fusion in the group OF Western States
which gave their electoral votes to the
Democratic ticket for the FIRST time four
years ago

fusing political game now in progress a.

Senator's home. hence his presence there
during the holiday recess of Congress ex-
cited no comment. But since the Ken

meeting of the Assembly just opened
Senator Lindsay. il is said. has been so
attentive to the anti Goebelites and all
other Democratic members supposed not to
be in harmony with the announced purpose
Of Goebci, as to have aroused a curiosity
which it is alleged has revealed the fact
that he Is cooperating with the Repub
licans TO compass the defeat of former
Senator Blackburn. This report was
brought to Washington yesterday by a
Democratic Congressman who left Frank
fort Monday. He claims that since arriv-
ing in Washington he has learned that be-
fore leaving this city for Kentucky
two weeks ago Senator Lindsay had
long conference with President Nc
kinley and Mark Hanna at the White
ference the Kentucky Senator agreed to go
home and do whatever he could to defeat
Blackburn, the basis of agreement being
that Senator Lindsay is to control the bulk
OF Federal patronage in the next dis
tribution in Kentucky. The alleged
agreement demands only the defeat OF
/ blackburn. irrespective of who may profit
by the former Senator's disappointment.
or course an effort will be made to throw
the election to some one not a pronounced
free-slverite. but II that should be
impossible, then John Young Brown is to
be united upon by the opposition elements
| Senator Lindsay is said to be authorized
TO organize into compact and wieldly
combination. Mr.. Blackburn is said to
have been informed only yesterday of the
work Senator Lindsay has undertaken to
do for the Administration. ard his friends
/ here kept the wires sizzling with mes
sages TO him. Late yesterday afternoon
one OF his Washington admirers claimed
to have received telegram from the be-
leaguered Blackburn. conveying assurances
of his ability to checkmate the finely or
ganized game and asserting positively that
no combination can be formed that will be
strong enough TO defeat his election on
| the first ballot when the Legislature meets
in joint session next Tuesday.
