There are 10 Republican Governors in
Europe TO protect fugitives from justice.
So that even If the assassin of King Hum
bert had managed to get out of the coun-
try it would have done him no good. unless
indeed he had been lucky enough to make
New York or Indiana. In either of those
events it is possible that he might have
arranged for executive protection.

European advices state that King Hum
t-srt was warned eleven days ago that an
attempt was about TO be made on his life.
but he was needless of the warning. 1t
is said in the Continental capitals that
the leniency shown by Belgium TO Sipido,
who tried to murder the Prince OF Wales,
has led to an alarming degree of activity
among the professional Anarchists Of
Europe and America and that it may be
true that they have marked other mon
archs for destruction.

Bothcring PIntt.-Boss Plat is having
no end of trouble over the ambition of the
Hon Jacob Worth. of Brooklyn, to break
into Congress from the Fifth district 1t
appears that Worth, who once quit politics
because he couldn't put up with the ways
of Plat has bounded into the arena this
year with renewed energy and with bound
less faith in the stability of republican
Institutions. Plat or no Plat, and that the
Easy Boss" actually has welcomed him
back. More than that it seems that Worth
has the party organization OF the Fifth
district in his grasp. and it can't get away
from him. And row comes the Hon.
Michael ]. Dady, mighty both as a contrac-
tor and statesman. swearing vengeance on
Mr.. Plat If he permits Mr.. Worth TO have
the Congressional nomination. Dady is \
supporter Of the Hon. Tim Woodruff, into
whose wounds Mr.. Platt has been rubbing
salt ever since they were inflicted in the
Vice Presidential contest at Philadelphia
In June Woodruff has not been saying
much for a month or more, but he mas
taken a trip to Europe in the mean time
and therefore has had an opportunity to
Go much thinking. 1t is thought that II
the Platt machine insists upon running
over Woodruff. even right in a Brooklyn
Congressional district. the statesman Of the
many vests VIII prCceeu 10 10 a Atte bust
ness en- his own hook. Hence. it behooves
Mr. Piatt to give ear to the raucous voice
Of Dady at this juncture. Still. if he does
this then he will have to settle with the
vengeful Jacob Worth. The situation, it is
seen, is not entirely lovely to Mr. Plat.

ber he must keep down all quarrels Mean

Alarm mt tnnton--Somet thing in the
nature of a riot call has been sent from
Canton to Indiana. All the blgwigs of
Hoosier Republicanism are headed for the
front porch OF the little frame cottage on
the hill. and a war council is scheduled
to take place there today and tomorrow.
The altitudinous Senator Fairbanks leads
the procession OF HoOsier wangs to Can
ton, as BELTS him, he being the taliest
Sycamore OF the Wabash at present. Oh
viously the Indiana situation is giving con-
Germ to the President. Mr.. Hanna keeps
I'D a bold front and VOWS that there is o
danger in Hoosierdom, but it is evident
that Mr. Hanna does this for about the
same reason that the small Ethiopian
whistles while walking through a grave
yard at night. All reports from Demo-
cratic sources in Indiana Indicate that the
prospects there are gloomier for the Re
publicans than they have ever been at the
corresponding period in any campaign.
What Mr. Mckinley can accomplish by
giving the situation his personal attention
remains TO be seen, though, OF course he
may be able to make such promises of
patronage as may result in checking to
some extent the threatened revolt At the
same time, il is generally believed that
upon close investigation the President viii
discover that it is not the officeseekers
wholly he will have to placate. There is
the Hon. Benjamin Harrison. for example,
who is not known to want any Office in
the Presidents gift Him the President
will find hard to please. Also Gen. Lew
Wallace. Likewise certain Republicans of
Influence educated by the late Uncle
Dick" Thompson in western Indiana will
have to be looked after carefully by Mr.
Mckinley. Especially is this true of sew
eral gentlemen who reside at Terre Haute.

ShatDr jones IOGuy.-At the head
quarters of the Democratic Congressional
Campaign Committee it was thought yes
terday that the Hon. James X. Jones. of
Arkansas, would be in Washington today.
Senator Jones has been in New York since
Friday. and it is believed that he has ac-
complished what he went there to do.
which was the pacihcation of Hill and
Croker. He is due at national headqrar
tiers in Chicago next Thursday, and has
business which will require his presence
in this city one day before going back
West. 1t was for this reason that the Con-
gressional Committee folk surmised yes
terday that he would be here today. How
ever, If he does come it is probable that
he will have neither the time nor dispo
sition to entertain any of the local fac
tionists who are looking for one anothe:
with tomahawks. He listened to represen-
tations from both sides with patience and
fortitude when he was here last week, AMI
this really was unnecessary. as the Sena-
tor has been intimately acquainted with
the District contest from the first. 1t Is
thought that as soon after the Presidential
notification ceremonies at indianapolis as
possible. which occur August s. Senator
Jones will call a meeting OF the sub-com-
mittee Of which he is chairman and settle
the District contest.

POLITICAL NOTES AND GOSSIP.
In North calof.bn.-T,o fur,ous ca,

In North Charlottesville furious cam
paign which has been raging in North Car
DINA for month will end Thursday in an
election for State officers and for consti-
tutional amendment, DISTINGUISHING the ne
groes. 1t is confidently expected that the
Democrats Will make clean sweep of the
offices, and that the constitutional amend
ment will be adopted by an overwhelming
majority. The Red nShirts apparently can
be depended upon to bring about the latter
result. Bloodshed is feared at the polls
Thursday. The blacks are reported to be
threatening to rally and turn out to the
polls in force to vote down the amendment
proposition If possible. II they do this
there is every reason TO fear much trouble.
The whites are determined to put the
amendment through. In its operations 1t
will not eliminate as many negroes from
the politics of North Carolina as do similar
laws in other States OF the South, though
in some of its provisions it may not stand
the same severe tests as have been stood
by the Mississippi law. The North Caro-
lima amendment restricts the franchise to
citizens who can read, but il also excerpts
from this restriction in express terms that
vast body of ignorant white voters, called
white trash" There is no such eXemp ion
as this either in Mississippi or South Caro-
lima. though the same exemption is made
BY the new law in Louisiana. The Louisi-
ara law has not yet been brought before
me Federal courts, and able lawyers are OF
opinion that when it is subjected to tf.s
test it will be declared to be in conflict
with the Constitution OF the Unitsd States.
Hence 1t is considered probable that this
feature in the election laws of both North
Carolina and Louisiana eventually will be
nullifed by the Federal courts. The op-
Grafton of the law in North Carolina will
not be so sweet Ping as in other states of the
South, where the ballot recently has been
hedged about with restrictions By reason
OF the fact that fully 40 per cent of the
negro voters in that State are sufficiently
educated to meet the tests that will be i'm
posed 1t is roughly estimated that the
total black vote of the State is 100,J go.
The new law, therefore. will disfranchise
only about $1,000 blacks. OF course, this
means the reduction of the Republican yo
by that number and the assurance of psr-
manent Democratic control of the State.
TIE new law will not take effect until aftcr
the November election, and for that reason
the situation in North Carolina will con-
tinue to be of interest to both parties. II
the Democrats carry the Legislature TO he
elected Thursday it is thought the Hon.
Marion Butler will be succeeded in the
Senate by Democratic State Chairman Sim
MONS who has served in Congress and is
very well known in Washington. There IS
some apprehension that the hostilities
aroused between the Democratic and Popu-
list leaders in the campaign now drawing
TO close may have serious effect on the
Presidential situation in North Ca olira.
