Senator Fairbanks knows the poll
tics of Indiana as few men do, and
how much he thinks of the alleged
republican revolt in the state, which
is so big in the columns of the anti
republican press and 80 hard to fin1
by those on the ground, may be judi
ged by his having said of he politi-
cal outlook 1.-The administration
stands in higher favor today than
ever before, and will undoubtedly be
sustained by the people, who are not
prepared to check, interrupt, or re-
verse the present prosperous condi-
tion of affairs. 1t is not possible
that the people will repeat the mis-
take of 1892. The republican party
has redeemed the principal pledges
made in 1896, and has brought pros
perity to all classes of our people.
We are quite ready to meet our op-
ponents in the campaign"
OF the Porto Rico tariff, now law,
the alleged cause of the alleged re-
publican revolt, Senator Fairbanks
said ut is based upon proper prin.
ciples and will justify itself. My in
formation shows that a very strong
current in its favor is setting in, and
as it becomes better understood the
criticism will decrease.

WASHINGTON, D. G.. April 16, 1900
If Charles II Allen, the first civil
governor of Porto Rico. makes as
good a record on that island as has
made as Assistant Secretary of the
Navy, Il position he has held since it
was given up by Col Roosevelt at
the. opening of the war with Spain,
the Porto Ricans will have cause to
thank Presi ent Mckinley for his
appointment. The civil rule of Por-
to Rico will begin May 1, and the
new tariff will go into effect at the
same time. No arrangement has
yet been made for withdrawing the
few troops that are in Porto Rico,
and it is thought that they will be
allowed to remain for awhile, al
though they will have nothing to do
with governiul the island, after the
civil government takes charge,

Senator Chandler thinks that Gov.
Roosevelt is the man to be nominal
ed for Vice President on the repub-
lican ticket. Speaking about it he
said II am for Roosevelt, and l do
not recognize his right to say that
he will not accept the Vice Presi-
Dental nomination, if the National
Convention should name him. Nei-
ther do / recognize the-rlght of Pres
ident Mckinley or Senator Hanna to
act for the party in deciding upon
the Vice Presidency in advance of
the Convention. The delegates will
name the Vice Presidential nominee.
Their judgement must determine,
and any man who is named will ac-
cept. The office has never been re-
fused, and if Gov. Roosevelt is NAM
ell by the Convention, he will ac-
cept."

Spain's attempt to retain three
islands on the outskirts of the Phil

claim was made on the ground that
these islands were outside of the
geographical bounds named in the

notified Spain that its claim would
not be recognized for the simple rea-
son that the demand Of this govern.
