MR.. HANNA'S BLUFF.

Senator Hanna. in outlining the prob
able action of the Republican National
Convention, declares that it viii take
a bold stand ON the new issues and that
it will be overwhelmingly supported by
the vote cast for the Republican ticket
in November.
THIS popular support of the Republic
can ticket is somewhat doubtful if SEN
atr Hanna's party takes that "bold
stand on certain issues which would be
consistent with it's acts. Such a stand
would necessitate the Republican par
tvs announcement against the Ameri-
can Constitution, violated by the Re.
publican passage of the Porto Rican
tariff bill. Ii would force the adoption
OF a resolution openly promising pro-
lection 10 the trusts, assessed TO a total
OF $50, 900. 900 for Republican campaign
uses. IL would compel the reputation
of the Declaration of Independence,
declared by the Republican party as in
applicable TO the situation in the Phil
ippines. IL would make inevitable a
public announcement of the definite
abandonment of the Monroe Doctrine.
Ii would lead to a confession of the
Republican determination TO annex Gu
ba IN violation of our pledge for Cuban
national Independence
Senator Hanna is mistaken in behev-
ing that the American people would
support such platform. He is mistak-
en- in asserting that his party Will take
bold stand" ON these issues-a stand
in keeping with its real intentions.
What il will do will be TO dodge all
these issues and try to fool the people
into re-electing Mr.. Mckinley Then
viii come the line of action indicated
aboye-a mapped-out course which the
Republican party dare not avow to the
people, but upon which il is determin-
ed all the same.-St. Louis Republic.

DEMOCRATS FIGURING
On a Majority Of Electoral
Votes in the Next
Campaign.

A prominent member of the Demo
cratic National Committee. while in
Chicago recently, made this statement
to the Times-H Herald:
Nineteen States are now Democratic
or fusion, and practically sure to remain
so-Alabama, Arkansas, Colorado, Flor
ida Georgia, Idaho, Louisiana, Mary
land, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana,
Nebraska, Nevada, North Carolina,
South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah
and Virginia. These yield a total of
1872 Electoral College majority, which
is 224.
-Four other States, nominally Repub-
lican at this time, are almost sure for
Bryan next year, yielding twenty-nine
more electoral votes, as follows: Ken
lucky, 10; Kansas, 10; Delaware 3. and
Wyoming 3. We count these because
Kentucky viii be Democratic in Ma
tional campaign; Delaware always goes
the way Maryland does. and Demo
cratic Congressman was elected there
last year; Kansas viii be carried by the
fusionists ON national issues, and be-
cause the swing Of the pendulum in
that direction is due. Vyoming will
be for Mr.. Bryan again on the money
question.
FIGURE on A MAJORITY.
OF the thirty three more electoral
votes needed to make a majority, we
ought to be able to get most easily the
following States Indiana, IS; Yves.

BRYAN AND TOWNE.
Barker and Donnelly.

The Populists, in so far as they iepre-
sent an element of opposition to the
Republican party, have contributed their
mite toward ultimate defeat by split
ting wide open, and nominating two
tickets for President and Vice-P President.
That branch of the party that assem-
bled at Cincinnati nominated Barker
and Donnelly; they may be classec as
the ultra element, but propose to divert
a. many Others as possible, and therein
1t is well known will injure the Demo-
Gratis and help the Republicans. This
q so clearly their purpose that but few
will deny it. The element that met at
Sioux Falls is more conservative and
have eliminated from their contentious
some of the more ultra demands of the
Populist, and profess desire to cooper
ate with the Democrats in the national
campaign. They nominated Bryan
DemocraD and Towne (Repabllcan)
for President and Vice President. They
claim that going outside their own
ranks for their candidates is an EVIL
dence of their liberality, but of course
they well know that their action of at
tempting TO dictate the nominations of
the Democratic party will be resented
by many Democrats and will bring up
complications such as existed in the
Watson case in 1896. On the whole the
action of our Populist friends is not en-
oouraging.

the Africans are stationary race, and
that the little they have accomplished

Is confident that the north will in time
