|s Senator Mark Hanna (chGlfmah ~.
puHllcan national commit se1-T have
nothing to say about this. he 10 not my
candidate lthia With q smile) and I do
not think either party has brought him
out. Dewey's announcements should
have been rnnde on the flrst % April.
Arthur Pue Gorman--It 10 hard to
predict what effect the admiral's en-
trance into the field will have. We are
for Bryan. but the convention next
July alone will decide who the demo-
cratic candidate will be. In the mean
time we are working for Bryan. and
there has been little doubt OF his nom-
sination.
Senator Mason-All ] care to say, and
al l have said to anyone asking my
opinion Of the admiralss step today, Ia
this !: Hurrah for Dewey
Senator Allen-A new man In the field,
hey? What will be the effect OF his cam
gdidacy? We are under the impression
that he IL looking toward Kansas City,
but time alone will unfold that secret.
Representative Littiefield, MaineWe
see the fine handiwork OF Mr.. Mclean,
the admiral's brother-in-la In this
He is a iirst-class politician, and seized
upon an opportune time to bring his
man out. Tie friends of the admiral are
strong and clever, but the sad part OF 1t
| is that both Of the great parties have
practically chosen their standard-bear-
ers. Where will this leave the admiral?
Senator Plat, Connectlcutt-I do not
think the candidacy Of Dewey will be
taken seriously. While the American
people honor him for his work in the
navy they do not want him for presi-
dent.
Representative Dick, Ohio-1 am not
certain, hut believe Dewey Is a repub-
lican and an expansionist. / can't gee
for the life of me how he would have a
chance to get on either ticket.
Representative Hull, Iowa--I do not
believe Dewey Is responsible for that
fool interview. II he is ne doesn't realize
the dignity OF the position Of president
when he says all he has to do as presi-
dent is to carry out the orders Of con-
gress. He Seems to be candidate on
either ticket.
Representative sulzer. New York-So
far as the democrats are concerned they
have already nominated their candidate
can beat Dewey. Mckinley or any other
man.
Representative DAILY New Jersey Tile
American people respect man III his
lIplace and are not hero worshipcrs.
Dewey is a good admiral. but object
to putting him on the ticket. Hasis not
democratic enough for me. anyhow. II
he wants to get on the democratic tick
let he should have declared his politics
Hong ago.
| Representative sibley, OF Pennsyl-
vania-Dewey made mistake. He
should have come in when the tide was
more strongly in his favor. read his
announcement with profound regret.
He would stand higher as a successful
admiral than as a disappointed oandi-
date. Mckinley and Bryan will be
nominated and each OF them could beat
Dewey.
John r. McLean--I4ord bless you. 4
don't know anything about II. Admiral
Dewey did not tell ne what he was go-
ling to do. am very much surprised
Representative Grosvenor. of Ohio.
The admiral's latest is very unfortu-
mate for his reputation and place In
the hearts of the people. It will not cut
sany figure whatever in the political sit
]suation. No party wants him unless Il
be the Jones party. He might run or
that.
i Secretary Gage-Admiral Dewe,
would probably gain a great many
votesif nominated by either party. But
which Will nominate him?
Representative Dinsmore, OF Arkan-
sas-When a man marries his troubles
begin. That is one OF the reasons why
have never married. BY the way,
\ have you noticed that the only opposl.
ition to Bryan comes from those who
voted against him in 1895?
