McKINLEY's RUNNING MATE.

The suggestion of Gov. Scofeld of
Wisconsin for second place on the Nc
kinley ticket will never do. The Gov
ernor has no liking for the imperialist
policy.-Springfield Republican.
If Mr.. Platt doesn't like the Bliss en-
try, what will Jockey Hanna do? Fall
back on Teddy in spite of his protesta-
tions.-Cleveland Plain Dealer.
Secretary Root declines to be a can
didate for Vice president on the plea
that he is needed in the office of Secre-
tary of war. Mr.. Root evidently had a
tip that Hanna and Plat were "agln"
him.-St Joseph Gazette.
Mr.. Mckinley is quoted as saying
that he had no choice for vice president
so long as the nominee is big enough
man to be president if need be. How
big a man does Mr.. Mckinley think is
needed for the iob?-Telluride Journal.
Cornelius Bliss declares he is offended
by the persistent use of his name as
candidate for second place on the ticket
with Mckinley. This is not hattering
to the latter, to say the least.-Heena
Independent.
After little while the public man will
feel that he is dropping out of public
notice whose name has not been men,
| toned as candidate for the vice presi-
dency.-Baltimore American.
Now Mr.. Bliss says he has no vice
presidential aspirations whatsoever. II
is up to Teddy again.-BostOn Herald
Perhaps Roo declines a nomination
for vice president because he fears If
elected, he might be deputized, like
| Hobart was, to coax some scandal
breeding member of the cabinet into
private life.-Kansas City Times.

the lecturer on the grace, beauty, form

lecture that is we'll worth the time Of
the most refined woman to attend. HE
captivates his audiences wherever he an

which his lectures run, and who knows
the secret of womanly health, beauty

public sentiment as to attempt to defeat
the Republican party upon State Issues
The situation is very similar bere. Ihls
State is Republican, the Republican
voters are demanding the election OF
State government, and the bolters here
are answering the demand by saying
there will be but one Republican ticket.
They do not tell the voters how
that is to be brought about,
and are giving the lie to their
own words by maintaining party
conditions that make the nomination
and undivided support of one Republi-
can State ticket impossible, unless they
intend to surrender to the Union Repub-
licans upon that issue and vote their
ticket. There is no other way out OF it.
Having chosen to continue two party or
CARNATIONS, and to continue their fight
to prevent the election OF Republican
United States Senators, they certainly
cannot expect any concessions from the
Union Republicans upon the State ticket.
II their plan is as we have here outlined,
the boilers are preparing to deceive and
betray the Republican voters OF the
State-to deal with the Democrats, as
their colleagues are in Pennsylvania, for
the defeat of Republicans and the elec-
tion OF Democratic United States Sena-
tors.
The pan for doing this is the same in
both States. It is to defeat the election
of Republican legislative candidates, and
secure the election of enough boilers and
Democrats to control the Legislature. In
this State the scheme is to elect one
Democrat and one bo!ter United States
Senator. In Pennsylvania the scheme is
to elect Democrat to succeed Mr.. Quay.
The bolter plans are all alike.
