SENATOR HANNA's PREDICTION
NO way of Figuring How Republicans
Can Lose Presidential Election

The Cleveland Leader received from, its
Washington correspondent last night the
following statement from Senator Hanna
VINO Is chairman of the republican national
committee. concerning the outlook for the
coming presidential campaign from a re-
publican standpoint:
"As a result Of a careful study of the
situation l feel perfectly safe in making
the prediction at this time that Mckinley
Will be reelected. There Is no way of fig
uring how the republicans can lose in the
coming contest if they put their shoulders
to the wheel and are not imbued with a
spirit of over-confidence in the success of
the ticket: The price Of the victory will
oe nuch harder and more constant effort
from the time the campaign opens until
election day. The republicans should make
the same kind of a fight they did in 1896,
There should be no cessation in their an
deavor to elect their candidates, and their
application and attention to the details of
the campaign must be steady and unceas-
ing. They should go into the contest on
the supposition that hard work is absolute
ly essential to victory. The spirit of re-
publicans this year is of a most gratifying
Kind. At the Ohio state convention, held
IN Columbus last week. this spirit was
manifested In a plain and unmistakable
manner The delegates even then were
prepared for the great political battle
which soon. will begin, and 1t was patent
siaSm- Senator Fairbanks, who has just
returned from the Indiana convention, in
forms me that the republicans of his state
possess the same inspiration. This is true
also Of republicans in other states. and all
reports which L have received along this
line are to the same effect. Evidence is
plentiful that the republican party all over
the country realizes fully the necessity Of
entering the campaign with earuestness
and determination to win a victory In
going over the list of states that cast their
electoral vote for Mckinley four years ago
l do not see any which will not do the
same thing this year unless it be Ken
lucky That state 1 am placing in the
doubtful column, although we certainly
purpose making every effort to carry it. 1
regard Maryland, which the democrats are
claiming already, reasonably certain to
remain in the republican column. Besides
holding our own in practically all the
states that we carried in 1885, We have
reason to believe that the republicans will
carry Kansas, South Dakota and Wash
ington. which went for Bryan four years
ago, while our chances are excellent, L am
informed by Senators Shoup and Carter of
winning Idaho and Montana, the states
which they represent in the Senate. Alto
gether l am pleased with the outlook,
which could not be any more encouraging
than it is"

Homemade Knockers.

The attention of the TIMES has
been drawn to the fact, that, with
out going abroad for an imported
article, we have in the mineral field
superior brand of homemade
"knocker."
The common decrier OF everybody
and everything, or the regular cap
tious critic of all private and public
enterprise, is not only pointed out
as an example Of the genus homo
had in mind, but it is insisted
that the term applies as well to
newspapers, and editors that envy
contemporaries, and hesitate at no
slam that will crafty their spite.
The T!ANs does not agree with
this Wholesale criticism of indivi-
duals fand newspapers. If the
charges made are true, there is the
extenuation of not knowing what
they do, if they are NOT of choleric
habit. Hence, it is not their fault,
but that of communities or of read
ers that give them audience when it
iS NOT decaryad
The TINES diagnosis of the COM
plant suggests the remedy, and the
application oft depends altogether
upon the community or upon the
particular readers afflicted by the
knocker. Fit amuses them or helps
their community and country, it is,
on the outside, nobody's business if
the thing is kept as a regular
stock in trade, But if it only comes
on periodically, it is to be remember
ed that such people are human, and
having its frailties as well, they
should have their little fun, no matt
err what the cost may be.

Predictions Were Wrong,

In 11S6 astrologers said the world
would be destroyed by the conjunct-
ing of the planets. A few years later
another alarm wasraised and in 1882
Simon Goularii claimed a mountain
had opened in Assyria and a scroll
had been shown him on which was
written the prediction the world was
coming to an end. He frightened
everybody. Again, 1854, the end
was foretold; a famous astrologer
was the prophet and people were
so terrified they sought refuge in
churches, but the dreaded day passed.
In the sixteenth century a famous
prophecy was made by Jean Sto filer,
a German mathematician. He said
in 1924 there would he a universal
deluge in February People in e.
rope, Asia, Africa thought thei
bad come, and in Germany

Pointer For Our Min

This question has bee.
put to the TIMES: Why
North Arkansas does not
ores at Denver, San Fransisc,
land, Spokane and Seattle, as
been done in the east through
Frisco Railway Company? ~
The reason given for the question:
is that of good money which is al
-
tions that will pay, oHwhere a min
eral country is coming to the front
like Arkansas"
The question, and the reason for it
has been repeated in all seriousness,
and the consequence is that it has
caused the TINES to put ON its think
ing cap. For if anything is to come
of the suggestion the question con-
veys, it should be attended to in
diligently; and this brings us to the
action which should be taken along
the following lines:
Let some one, or let our North Ar
kansas mineral men in general, take
up the subject of our zinc ores with
Col. j. N. Smithee, Denver Colorado,
until a year ago editor OF the Ga
zette, Little Rock, this state. We
owe, indirectly, to this gentleman
the present movement in North Ar
kansas mineral properties, promoted
and strengthened by Col. DcMalher's
personal explorations and advertise
ment of the country which circum-
stance would likely predispose Col.
Smithee to approaches from our peo-
pie.
Communication, however, should
be first had with Col. Smithee, and
if the movement is encouraged
by him, let hiL4 name response
bic parties who will entertain
overtures, and to whom printed
matter maps and lists of valuable pro-
perty can be mailed. And promptly
as correspondents have been secured,
a collection of mill ores, not cabinet
specimens, should be forwarded for
and disnlay .ssA4S ..ssAZzGLGl-
