A High Compliment.

The recent democratic convention Of
Washington county endorsed our friend
Baxter Taylor, for elector in this con-
gressional district. This honor is the
recognition of the brilliant abilities of q
deserving and ambitious young man.
For the last few years Mr.. Taylor has
been a diligent political student, and
has been preparing himself for the pub
lie advocacy of his principles. He has
some experience on the rostrum and
his efforts have been entertaining to all
and highly satisfactory to his party.
His speeches have been upon a high
plane of thought and he will make the
preparations to acquit himself with the
highest credit. He is earnest and en-
thusiastic in all he undertakes, and this
is the main secret of his success as a
speaker. We have no doubt OF his Sc
lection as elector for this district, and
though young he is entirely competent
to meet its responsibilities. Herald

BRYAN AND DEWEY.
Senator Jones Discusses the Presidential
Candidates.

Senator Jones Discusses the Presidential
Candidates.
Washington, April 1G. Senator ] ones
of Arkansas, chairman of the demo-
cratic national convention, said today
he had no idea what Admiral Dewey's
intentions were or what line of ac-
ton he would pursue to obtain the
presidential nomination.
So far as the national democratic
committee as a body is concerned no
letter or communication has been adj
dressed to the admiral on the subject
of his candidacy. Speaking for him
self, Senator Jones said he had not
written to theadmiral inquiring whether
he would enter the Kansas City con-
yention and abide by the result of the
convention, but added:
cit Is quite probable, however, that
others are more curious.
"It is quite probable continued he,
'that Admiral Dewey may be suggest
ed in connection with the vice-presi-
dency, but | have not the slightest idea
that he will be proposed seriously rs
presidential candidate. Public santi-
ment has already decreed that Mr..
Bryan is to be the nominee of theregu-
lar democratic party, and in my judg-
ment the men who will represent the
democratic party at Kansas City will
carry out the will of the democratic
masses and name Mr.. Bryan.
$50 far as Admiral Dewey is CON
cerned, L have no means of knowing
whether he proposes, as democrat, to
come to the regular organization and
abide the consequences, or whether he
and his friends intend to hold an indie
pendent convention similar to that
which named third party ticket four
years ago headed by Gen. Palmer"
Senator Jones then explained that he
is not seriously considering the candi-
daey of Admiral Dewey, becaue he be-
lieyes it to bsthe result of a movement
originated by certain so-called demo-
Gratis who did not vote for Mr.. Bryan
four years ago. and who have no inten-
ton of doing so if he is again named as
the party standardbearer. He added
|
that it is not usual for candidate to
announce that he proposes to be the
candidate Of any particular party, and
dictate a policy which is supposed to be
antagnostic to all the principles of the
party from which he seeks support.
IF, said Senator Jones' admiral
Dewey declares himself to bea demo-
crat he will receive cordial welcome
into the fold, for the American people
are proud Of him for his gallant and
meritorious services in their behalf.
There are other good democrats who
rendered valuable service to their coun-
try during the Spanish war, and the
admiral will not be lonely in the demo-
cratic ranks. He will probably receive
such consideration as he deserves, but
he will have to abide the result of the
convention, whatever it may be-"
