All efforts on the part of the Admins
tration press to belittle the Dewey prog
ress in the West have collapsed under the
undeniable enthusiasm of the Admiral s
reception everywhere. He is a Democra-,
but nobody in the Democratic party is
alarmed about his popularity. 1t is great
and probably will be used to help elect
Mr.. Bryan; but the Administration is wor-
ried into fits over the matter, and only
curses fate that it cannot pack him off to
some fever coast as it did Schley.

That the Administration is boldly in
different to public sentiment is again made
unpleasantly apparent. Secretary Hay and
Lord Pauncefote have signed a protocol
extending the time for ratifying the Hay
Pauncefote Treaty seven months. This
means that every effort will be made to
throttle canal legislation in the Senate at
this session. and if that be successful to
JAZZ the British iniquity through next win

be warned accordingly.

The Republican judiciary of Kentucky
must contain some choice spirits, whom
Hanna should keep in mind when there
are vacancies on the Supreme Bench. Ac
cording TO witness in the Goebel murder
examination, one of the breed, a Lexington
jurist, is quoted as declaring: Somebody
ought to have killed Goebel, and Governor
Taylor ought to pardon the man that did
it" This is the kind of political religion
which results from the practice of machine

The State Department holds that there is no
reason why Catholic priest should not be Appoint
ed to consulship. The appointment of clergy
men to consulships is not by any means new; on
the contrary, a large number Of consuls have
been ministers OF the gospel Nearly every Minis
ter sent to Liberia has been a clergyman. It Is
true that they have always been Protestants here
tofore but it is pointed out that, if Protestant
ministers are appointed, there is no reason why

The significant fact is that the House by an
overwhelming majority has passed bill which
ignores the HayPauncefote Treaty and the Clay
ton Bulwer Treaty and which provides for an all
American fortified canal. 1t Is clearly apparent
that the House in adopting a measure OF this kind
did so in the belief that it was acting in response
to the dominant sentiment of the nation.

POLITICAL NOTES AND GOSSIP.
A Crafty Gnmc-pah;nd Tho rrb

trafty Gnme.-Behind the public
espousal of the Vice Presidential candi-
dacy CT the Hon. john D. Long by the
Hon. Henry Cabot Lodge, there is story
illustrating the craft Sand resourcefulness
Of the Hanna Platt combine which is
worth telling. The comparatively few
persons who are aware of the strained re-
lations between Messrs. Long and Lodge
scoff cynically at the statement that the
Senator has agreed to present the name
of the Secretary to the Philadelphia Con-
vention for the second place on the ticket.
But the amiable Mr.. Mckinley does not
scofi at it. Neither does the gruh and
gnarlej Hanna. nor the placid and i'm
perturbable Platt. These three know that
Senator Louge has consented to eulogize
Mr.. Long as an eminently fit running mate
fer MIR. Mckinley. Ii is not doubted that
the trio emits a sly little chuckle of
triumph when tnG subject is mentioned,
for indeed. the arrangement represents
a triumph of crafty manipulation. which
is one of the most notable in the lcng
list of achievements marked up TO the
credit of the machine managers. The
reason the trio resort ed to the strategy
involved was that Sena tor Lodge was en-
couraging Governor Roosevelt to stand cut
sterny against the efforts being made to
force him on the ticket. It was argued
that if Senator Lodge could be brought
around to see the ACCESSIBILITY of nomi-
mating the Rough Rider no.ens volens the
trick could be worked The easiest way
to accomplish this result was TO start
strong boom for Secretary Long. This, 1t
was correctly argued, would cause Mr.
Lodge Immediately to join in the demand
for Roosevelts nomination. Of course, he
would not do this publicly. but he could
be relied upon privately to exert all of
his influence with the obstinate New
Yorker to consent to be sacrificed 1t is
stated on authority that cannot be doubted
that Senator Lodge very readily fell into
the trap set for him. and surprised Roose-
welt by suddenly swooping down upon him
with powerful arguments why he should
yield to the demand for the use of his
name at Philadelphia. The Rough Rider
has not yet given his consent but Senator
Lodge is still working on him. The Sena-
tor fears that unless Roosevelt is in the
field Long will run away with the Vice
Presidential prize at Philadelphia. In the
event of Roosevelt holding out firmly
against the nomination to the end, then it
is Understood that Senator Lodge, in his
desperation 10 defeat Secretary Long. will
turn to the Hon, Jonathan Prentiss Dolli
YER OF lciw2 and attempt to stampede the
entire New England delegation to the
lecture prking mate Of the Hon Champ
Clark. A report of this intention has i'm
parted con siderable strength to the Dolli-
yer boom during the past few days, and
the IoWan is aware that he is now threat
ene5 with the Vice Presidential nomina-
ton in spite OF his withdrawal last week
in favor of the Hon. Charles Emory Smith.

II is part of the gossip of the day that
the President resents the desperate i'm
portance which is being given to the mat
ter of Roosevelt's nomination to the Vice
Presidency at Philadelphia. The recently
apparent determination of Hanna and
Plat to put him on the ticket even If he
declined the honor in open convention,
is calculated to impress the public with
the idea that Mr.. Mckinley in their opin-
ion will be beaten unless they can secure
a running mate for him who can tickle the
popular fancy. This may be true, but it
is not pleasant for the gentlemen most
interested. Roosevelt might sweeten
Republican ticket little; almost any
thing would But he does not want TO,
and lie would not kind to Mr.. Mckinley
for him to make the effort.

sible that in that case the last state of
the Indian peasant would be worse than
the first. 1t is not so long ago that sub
scrtptions were being raised in the United
States to relieve famine among the Rus
sian peasants. 1t was not claimed that
the Russian Government was unable to do

gagged in the South African war for the
purely altruistic reason of saving India
from Russian rule, but at the same time
since the successful prosecution of The
war may have that result, it might be
wise to spend some money on it, even at
the expense of India. though there is no
proof that that country has suffered by it.
