RULED BY A

MEEKER, COL, April 13.-Judge
Hazen, brother-in-law of Mrs. Dewey,
was asked today what he thought
of Admiral Dewey's declaration as a
candidate for the presidency. His
response was:
Il am not in a position to say
much, but if the people Of this coun-
try do not desire to place the destiny
of this nation in the hands of a wo-
man it will be best to let the admiral
remain where he is. I know Mrs.
Dewey very we'll, of course She
was my brothers wife. She is bright,
a capable, ambitious woman, how
ever-quite familiar with public af-
fairs at Washington"

GEORGIA POPULIsTS' TICKET

ATLANTA, Ga, April 1O.-The Mid
dle-of- the-Road Populists of Georgia
today nominated a full State ticket.
The eight delegates at large to the
Cincinnati Convention were in
structed for Wharton Barker, of
Philadelphia. for President, and
Ignatius Donnelly, of Minnesota, for
Vice-President.
The platform appeals for prohibi-
ton, and direct legislation by means
of the initiative and referendum.
The hope is expressed that the COM
ing National Convention will clean
the ranks of all mere office seekers
and work a new era in the party's
history. The Omaha and Cincinnati
platforms are endorsed.

UNANIMOUS AGAINST CLARK,

WASHINGTON, April 10.-The Sen
ate committee on privileges and cleo
tiOns today decided by a unanimous
vote to recommend the adoption of a
resolution declaring that Hon. WA.
Clark, of Montana, is not entitled to
occupy his seat as a Senator from
Montana. This decision followed d
two hours session, at which the
members spoke at length on the
question. Senator Harris, of Kan
sas, said that whatever Mr.. Clark's
offenses, they were but little worse
than the methods pursued by Con
gresham Campbell and ex-State
Senator Whiteside in their efforts to
expose the Senator, and he insisted
that if the report was to be antagOn-
istic to Mr.. Clark, it should at the
same time relate in full detail the
course pursued by the two principal
witnesses against him. Senator
Pettus practically agreed with Mr.,
Harris. The c~OncensUs of opinion of
the committee was that the cumula-
tive character of the testimony
should be considered, rather than
any one especial feature, Senators
Chandler and Turley we're directed
to prepare the report. It is expected
to be presented at an early day.

CANDIDATE FOR VICE-PRESI-
DENT.

Minneapolis, Mimi, April 14.-The
Journal says:
Former Congressman Charles A.
Towne, of Duluth, is a candidate for
the Democratic nomination for Vice
President. Judge Caldwell, of the.
United States Circuit Court, has de-
clined to permit the use of his name.
in this connection, and TONNES can
didacy is predicted on the Judges
defamation. The demand for TOwnc's
nomination is said to come from the
gold Democrats and Republican Anti
Imperialists of New England.
cit is asserted that Bryan would
be glad to have TOwne for a running
mate. Senator Pettigrew is another
supporter. His programme is to
have the National POpulist cOnven
ton at Sioux Falls, S. D., May 9th.
adjourn without nominating, leaving
the matter to a committee which
would later on endorse the Demo
cratic ticket named in Kansas City"

THE KENTUCKY sITUATION.=

Charges and counter charges T
being made by the factions at wal in
Kentucky. Friends of Mr.. Taylor
declare that the confessions which
have been secured duplicating prOmi-
nent Republicans in the plot to as
sassinate Goebel, have been obtained
by the use of large sums Of money
and the promise of immunity from
punishment. AS we suggested last
week it will be we'll to wait and see
what the evidence really goes to
prove when it is brought under the
scrutiny of the crOss-examiner. Ex-
parte testimony is never conclusive,
seldom fair, frequently mendaciOus.
That there is a set of scoundrels in
Kentucky willing to go to anylengths
to secure the ends sought, holding as
cheap personal honor and human
life, none who have watched the case
of the rival factions car for a mo-
ment doubt. That this element is
COlIllL1Cu W lClUl1CI VI CI1C S1CnC pal
ties is equally clear, and in the
scramble to get away from some
very ugly facts and some unpleasant
consequences, it appears that men
of high standing are being led into
relations with these designing ras-
Gals. What has happened in Ken
lucky may happen anywhere else if
partisanship be placed above public
welfare and public Office and it's
emoluments fall prey to the lowest
elements of society, as partisanship
universally tends to make them.
My character todayis for the most
part, simply the resultant Of all the
thoughts I have ever had, of all the
feelings I have ever cherished and all
the deeds I have ever performed. It
is the entirety of my previous years
packed and ~crystalized into the pres
ent moment. So that character is
the q~uintessence of biography so
that everybody who knows my char
acter-and there is no keeping char
acter under cover-knOws what for
forty or more years I have been do
ing and thinking. Character is for
the most part, simply habit become
fixed. Character is that kind of
statuary which a nan cuts out with
himself as both tool and subject.-C.

FUSION EFFECTED IN OREGON.

PORTLAND, OREGON, April 13.-The
State Convention of the Democrats
and Populists today effected a fusion
of the two parties in which the Silver
Republicans also joined. Both the
Democrats and Populists endorsed
Bryan for President, but the Popu-
lists delegates to the National Con
vention were instructed to vote for
no other Democrat for the nomina-
ton for President, and to vote only
for a Populist for ice-President.
The platform reafirms the Chicago
platform and favOrs Philippine indie
pendence and protection from outside
interference.
