A POLITICAL SURPRISE.
Kumored that Senator Frye Has One
I'm Store for the Public.

Indianapolis, March 15.-The Senti-
mel says: One of the most prominent
republicans in Indiana, who has just
returned from Washington and who is
known to be very close to the McKin-
ley administration, is authority for
the statement that n defense for the
Porto Rican tariff bill is being prepar
ed that will show the politicians that
the enactment of the bill, instead of
being a blunder, was the shrewdest
campaign move of the age. He says
this defense is in the hands of Senator
Frye, who will spring it in the senate
in due season.
1t will be shown, he says, that the
sugar and tobacco trusts were CppoS-
ing the bill with might and main and
that their demand was for free trade
with all the colonies. 1t will further
be shown, he says, that it was the in
tention of the trusts to squat" in the
colonies and flood America with their
cheap products, which would drive
countless thousands of laboring men
out of house and home. Even the ap-
proXmate reduction IL wages of
American laboring men is bsing fig
urcd for campaign purposes.

date. The most noted instance of in
.judicious utterance was that of Rev.
DR.. Burchard in October, 1884. when he
referred to the democratic party as I he
party of 'rum, Romanism and rebel
lion" That remark caused Mr.. Blaine
to lose many thousands of votes, there
by defeating the ambition of his life
During the campaign of 1896 Mai
Mckinley not only carefully prepared
every speech which he delivered at his
home in Canton, but he carefully read
every speech which was to be made to
him before it was delivered; and many
of those speeches We're revised by the
major before he permitted his visit
ing admirers to be heard. Very few
speeches were made to Mr.. Bryan in
that campaign, as he preferred to do
most of the talking himself.
The first notable political mis-
take in the history of our repub-
lie was made by Henry Clay, in
1914, when he wrote a letter con-
tanning a i, ause of less than a doz-
en- words that sealed his defeat. There
was probably never a more popular
politician than Henry Clay, and his
election seemed a foregone conclusion.
He had been nominated with enthusi-
asm and with unanimity. His party
was splendidly disciplined, and abso-
1utely sure of success. But, unfor-
tunately, Mr.. Clay wrote letter to
friend in Alabama, in which he made
some ill-considered allusion to the adj
mission of Texas; and that single SEN
tence caused him to lose the cleo
toral vote of New York state, and this
to fail of election to the presidency. 1t
was called the Alabama letter." and
was used upon the hustings everywhere
with great effect to the detriment of
Mr.. Clay. Politicians of that day all
declared that nothing else could have
compassed Mr.. Clay's defeat.

but for none stranger than the claim

IN a STRAIGHT LINE.
New York Capitalists Propose TO Build
a RaiIrOad fsom GOTHAM TO Chicago.

New York. March 15.-The CONNER
cial Advertiser says: a group of east
ern and New York financiers are dis
posed to revive the scheme to con-
struct an air line railroad between
New York and Chicago. Men who
command large capital have been suf-
ficiently interested in this project TO
have surveys made and maps prepared,
showing approximately the course OF
the proposed new road.
This proposed railroad is to extend
between New York and Chicago in al
most straight line. 1t will cut across
the northern part of New Jersey and
will pass through the Mauch Chunk
coal fields in Pennsylvania. According
to the route now marked out the new
line will skip most Of the large cities
in Pennsylvania, taking in only Oil
City. Passing through Ohio, the road
will touch at Cleveland and Toledo
and will pursue nearly a straight
course to Chicago via South Bend.
This ''air line" it's projectors de-
clare, will be more than 300 miles
shorter than amy other route between
the Atlantic scaboard and Chicago and
trains are to be run from New York
to Chicago in 16 hours-perhaps a lit
tie less. One feature of the proposed
road would be the running of speedy
freight trains.

Another notable mistake on the part
of a candidate was made by Gen. Han
cock in September, 1884, when he wrote
a letter saying: "The tariff is a local,
not a national, issue" Although it
has since been demonstrated and adj
mitted by politicians of both parties
that Gen. Hancock was technically cor
rect in his statement, it was taken up
at the time by the opposition and
turned into ridicule with such effect
that it insured Hancock's defeat.
For long time after Henry Clay's
defeat the political managers would
not permit their presidential candi-
dates to make any speeches nor to
write any letters. Zachary Taylor was
required to be as solitary as an oyster
and as silent as a clam. Only one let.
ter was promulgated over his sigma
ture, and that was prepared for him by
Thurlow Weed, Millard Fillmore and
William II. Seward. Franklin Pierce
was kept in retirement, although he
had long been known as an orator of
magnetic presence. His campaign
managers feared that he might commit
some fatal error in public utterance.
When Abraham Lincoln was NOM
mated in 1860 the republican managers
were perturbed lest he might commit
