As to national politics. he had no
reason to doubt that Mr.. Mckinley
would lead the Republican and Mr..
Bryan the Democratic tickets. The
only possibility which he saw OF Bryan
not being the Democratic nominee was
the chance Of his withdrawal which

one, who, at this time, could even
guess the name Of that candidate. Con-
cea!ug Mr.. McKinley's denomination
BY the Republicans, the ex-senator said
that there was, apparently a strong ef-
fort to insist upon Colonel RocseVelts
accepting the nomination for second
place, upon the part OF his party, re-
gardlcss Of the fact that the New
Yorker had repeatedly declined 10 ac-

ex-senator Manderson might De M

Mr. Camden would neither attempt 10

election, nor would he consent TO DC
