Sensitive and conservative Republic
cans, in Washington and elsewhere, are
seriously alarmed about the outlook
for the fall election, 10th as regards
members of Congress and the Presi-
Dental ticket itself, and the fear is
steadily growing that President Nc
Kinley and his personal followers and
close advisers have so compromised
the party that not only has success
been jeopardized, but that defeat is
plainly in sight. There is an utter alb
sence of that calm complacency SO
marked two years ago, and up to a
comparatively recent date, and in it's
stead there are heard many admissions
that the next House Of Representatives
will be surely Democratic, while the
National ticket itself is probably doom
ed to defeat. From all parts of the
country reports come to Washington
of popular dissatisfaction with Con-
gress and the administration This is

these being the Philippine policy. the
Puerto Rican iniquity, the general be-
lief in a secret understanding with
England, the continuance of the war
taxes, and the webbing and vacillat-
ing course of the President himself.
These are minor causes for the ex-
istence of q growing anti-administra-
ton feeling among the people, but
these innumerat5d are the main ones,
and they OF themselves are amply suf-
1lcient to bring about a greatly-to-b be-
desired event, the dumping out of the
present un-American, unpatriotic and
unpopular regime, and the substitu-
ton therefore of a government more
closely in touch with the people, with
a due regard for their interests, and
with respect and generation for the
Constitution. The Democracy can fur
rish such government, and for its
ticket the people will provide the
votes.

On Political Issues, But Refuses to
Express Them-Expects No Nomi-

WASHINGTON. April Admiral
Dewey tonight expressed himself as
very much gratified over the manner
in which his announcement to be
candidate for the presidency has been
received by his friends.
why is it. Admiral Dewey, that
you have decided to become a candi-
date for the presidency" he was ask
ed.
Really, on that point" he answer
ed. there is nothing to add to what
has already been vrinted on the sub.
ject. If the American people want me
to be their candidate for this high Of
flee | shall gladly serve them. My de-
termination to aspire to it was influ-
enced by my many friends who have
written me letters suggesting that l
should be a candidate"
Admiral Dewey has some very de-
cided opinions on matters Of public
moment and while expressing them in
private he prefers not to make any
public announcement of them at this
time. Platforms for parties, he be-
lieves are not made by candidates for
the high Office of President.
AS to which of the great political
parties the Admiral will ally himself
with he declares he prefers not to make
any statement at this time. To those
who have talked with him privately it
is evident that he does not expect the
nomination to come from the Republi-
can party.

DEWEY SAYS HE MEANS TT
would not be a stronger candidate tina

would not be stronger candidate than
Bryan, as follows:
In the present crisis the Democratic
party needs a leader of positive con-
yiction. The Democratic candidate
must not only stand firmly upon the
Democratic platform, but must be a
platform in himself. Mere personal
popularity is never sufficient to win,
and especially at time when voters
are studying as row. The Democratic
party is strongest when fighting ag-
gressively for principle and weakest
when supporting mere popular heroes.
Proud as Democrats may be that Dew
ey is among those who desire the
downfall OF Imperialism, l Think it
would be a grave mistake not to placs
in nomination William Jennings Bry-
an, whose vote of 1896 was larger than
had ever before been required to
elect, and whose following to-day is
larger by far"

Police Commissioner Abel, of New
York, says:
Any man who would personally say to
me that l am in league with vice Is
ID liar. No one would dare to come to
me and say that. l would resent it in.
proper manner. l would hunt him to the

That is to say, if the charge We're
true any man with the nerve to utter
it would be assaulted or killed by one
who is paid and sworn to see that
peace is kept and the laws enforced.
If this to become the general rule
among police officers and officials
known or suspected to be guilty OF
neglect Of duty or other shortcomings
the law-loving public will be seriously
handicapped in efforts TO bring about
better state Of affairs.
Commissioner Abel talks like a
public boss, and not like public SER
want. If there is to be a police in
vestigation in New York he would be
a good man to start ON. If not, he
should be deposed from his Office and
retired to private life.

New York Journal
And now the Republican managers
at Washington have sprung new
author of their Puerto Rican policy.
1t is Governor-Genera Davis this time.
General Davis" we are told. actual
ly drew the bill which has been receiv-
ed with such hostility in some quar-
tiers. The sole purpose which General
Davis had in view was TO provide for
the pressing needs of the island"
Indeed? That is touching. But
how long are we to believe it?
The country wants to believe just
what the Republican party tells it to,
but a whale finds it difficult to flop
with the agility of herring. What
the Republican leaders ought to do
is to label their successive stories, as
some dealers do eggs, with the date
on which the article was laid and the
time it Is expected to keep fresh.
Thus:
1T is our plain duty to give Puerto
Rico free trade.-Dec. Z; good until
Jan. s."
The tobacco growers o. Connect
cut and the beat sugar growers Of Ne
braska have demanded protection
against Puerto Rican competition.
Therefore Chairman Payne. of the
House Ways and Means Committee,
has withdrawn his free trade bill and
drawn up a new measure levying du-
ties both ways.-Jan. S; good until
Jan. 81"
THE President is the real author of
the new tariff bill. He is not worried
about the tobacco and sugar growers,
but he wants to keep the Constitution
out of Puerto Rico, SO that it may not
sneak into the Philippinas.-Jan 81;
good until Feb. 2S"
THE actual author of the tariff bill
is Secretary Root. He never thought
about tobacco or sugar, and he never
friends, but what he is trying to do
is to raise a revenue for Puerto Rico.
He wants to make the Puerto Ricans
pay crooked taxes because he thinks
they are too poor to pay the same
money straight.-Feh IS; good until
April g.
The genuine author OF the tariff
bill is Governor-General Davis. He
explained the needs OF the islanders
so convincingly that he was asked to
draw up a measure to make them
happy, and Immediately did SO, putt
ing their happiness at Is per cent.
Dingley rates.-April .; good until
when?"
If we had some such schedule as
this, the country might De able to ad-
just itself to the Republican gyrations
with better success than at present.

HANDS OFF KENTUCKY.

Noting the rapid development OF the
facts in the plot to murder Governor
| Goebel and a number of Kentucky
Senators, and recognizing that in the
| investigation now in progress and the
trials to follow the truth will come out
and the guilty be punished, the Park
ersburg State Journal franctically calls
for the interference of President Nc
Kinley At the end of long editorial,
which assumes that everyone who has
so far thrown light upon the murder OF
Goebel is guilty of perjury, the Jour-
nal says:
st looks as though there is but one final
end. The United states government VIII
the time before much has occurred, that
1t is blot upon the nation!
There appears to be no occasion for
this proposed Federal interference.
The Courts are looking into the facts
of the case, and if they will probe the
murder of Goebel to the bottom and
meet out adequate punishment 10
whoever is guilty, either as principal
or accessory, reasonable men will be
satisfied. Goebel was aSsassinated.
The shot was fired from a State build
ing in the custody and control Of, and
filled with the officials and partisans
of Taylor, many of the latter armed.
The thing to be insisted upon by all
men who love justice is to ascertain
who fired that shot, and who, if any
one, had guilty knowledge of the muir
derer's intentions. To call in Fed
eral troops to stop the enquiry now in
progress or prevent others to come
would be a confession that all that is
suspected is true in fact, and that
Taylor and his supporters cannot af-
ford to have justice done.
There will be no Federal interior
ence. There ought not to be, and any
attempt in that direction, under exist
ing circumstances, will be to trifle
with the already sorely tried patience
OF the people.
Let the trials in Kentucky go on
and the truth be told, no matter who
is smitten by the sword OF Justice.
