show of Q chance. Later. it may not
be SO easy. But the politicians all
want TO take their bushel OF sulfur and

own. With a president, cabinet, two
legislative bodies, an army, navy,
and. best of all, custom house, internal
revenue and tax collectorships. they
figure there will be positions galore;
enough to give Q man pocket money
and . chance to wear . gorgeous uni

MCKINLEY ASSASSINATION PLOTS.
No special attention is paid here to
she alleged plots to kill the president.
This is the dull season and the New
York yellow papers are discovering
more things that sren't so every ten
minutes than they normally would In q
week when news is plentier. However,
II any bloodthirsty crank should tn:
up he will meet With . mortifyingly
disrespectful reception from the White
House police. They have knack 81
Identifying these people and deta!n
some every week or so. As . rule no.
thing much is said about It and the
prisoner Is simply Jagged" or cent
70 st. Elizsbeth's ssylum - may seem
proper. As there 10 no fun In being q
crank unless one meets with . theatri-
cal reception and gets plenty OF ad-
vertisemen this policy is discouraR-
ing. 1t will be remembered, that when
Coxey and his much herslded army
came here they we're merely arrested
for walking on the grass.
wASHINGToN'S GRAND ARMY.
The Grand Army meeting In Chica-
60 is depletinR't the ranks OF the high
Officials here. There is an astonishing
number of members of the orRsnizs-
ton among them. President Nc
Kinley was scheduled to
20, but 10 detained By pressing bu-
siness"-which may be interpreted ss
she EASTERN crisis.'' 1t is possible
that an extra session of congress may
be called AZ any moment.

The tariff receives . prominent place.
There is . full statement Of statistical
And official data for the benefit Of re-
publican speakers and writer's. Moet-
ly It Is intended to develop the "full

By GOVERNMENT ORDER.
Comptroller Tracewell has q truly
Texan idea of what . deputy marshal
should be. Recently . federal mar
shall in Tennessee submitted his &C
counts and among them was q mileage
bill for escorting some prisoners. To-
stead Of going by the shortest route as
is required by law the deputies made q
long detour to avoid the shooting
Creek country" In Virginia, where
is q domestic amusement
and deputy marshals are unpo 3ular,
mileage accordingly. Trace
we'll turned down the account with q
jar, meeting the defesce that 1t was
impossible TO travel with safety
by the short route with
90 Orc hing statement that while natural
obstacles may justify turning aside,
the government cannot afford to en-
lawbreakers by . show OF fear.
SIS is not Its method TO sneak iss pris-
oners through out of the way places in
order to avoid those persons who seek
10 defy and nullify its mandates.
III your deputies are afraid to en-
force the Law by arresting and convoy
Ing prisoners for examination or trial
before the officers provided by law, you
should endeavor to secure those who
are not so afraid and you will be furnish
cd by the government every facility
that may be necessary to accomplish

NEW TURKISH MINISTER

minister's feelings on this score.
