New York, Sept. 5.-The World to-
morrow will print letter from Richard
Olney, Secretary of State during the
Cleveland Administration. in which Mr..
Olney declares his intentions of sup
porting Mr.. Mryan for President After
saying that Mr.. Bryan is hardly the
candidate he should choose if he had
his way in the matter, and that he en-
tlrely dissents from parts Of the Kan
sas City platform, Mr.. Olney says:
BE It admitted that the Democratic
party It's platform and it's candidate
are open to much just criticism, yet.
all things considered would not it's
triumph be the best outcome of the
present Presidential contest?"
Mr.. Olney then criticises the policy
of the Mckinley Administration re-
garding the Philippines, and thinks the
country will soon find itself in the tolls
of n Chinese problem even more costly
and menacing than the Philippine
problem itself.

CBy Telegraph to virginian-PiloO
Saratoga, N. Y, Sept. 5.-The State
Republican Convention in session here
to-day nominated the following ticket:
For Governor-B. B. Odell. Jr., of

For State Treasurer-John P. Jaec-
kel. of Cayuga.
Attorney Gcneral-John G. Davies,
of Oneida
state Engineer-Edward A. Bond, of
Jefferson.
The most interesting feature of the
convention was the fact that the
speech nominating Benjamin b. Odell
for Governor was made by former
Governor Frank S. Black, who had
been outside the organization breast
works since Theodore Roosevelt defeat
ed him two years ago when he de-
sired nomination. For a long time
Mr.. Black and his close friends Abram
Gruber and former District Attorney
w. NJ. *. Olcott. of New York, were
very bitter against Senator Plat but
very recently n reconciliation was eff
fected. Mr.. Black said The issues now
before the American people were dis
cussed and We're settled four years ago.
| There is not a new one mere" he con-
tinued. The ghost of anti-imperia lism
which stalks to and fro between Lin

cy of growth. and it cannot be swerved
from that policy by new scare crows
erected along the way"

and Colonel Roosevelt also spoke,

Woman,s Sphere Again.

one cannot but wonder why Mark
Hanna having the Republican party
on his hands, should so out of his
way to condemn women who show u
desire TO step outside of what he con-
siders their sphere Their sphere.
according to Hanna, is minding their
houses, putting on the provcrbal but
ton and attending to the needs of the
proverbial baby. ana he says with
crushing disapprovai, eff women
haven't any husbands and babies,
they should have" The Washington
Post has perhaps taken Mr.. Hanna
more seriously than he deserves when
it observes, apropos of his reprcssive
attitude
Mr. Hanna says politics is not
woman's sphere That is assertion.
not argument. He adds, "All women,
at least, are not fitted for such a
sphere That is true, and it is equally
true as to men. Many men are natu-
rally disqualified for n political career,
and millions of men are so stoidly
ignorant that society ought not to trust

argument against equal suffrage and
equal eligibility 10 office. N1r. Hanna
says. IF women haven't any husbands
and babies. they should have" That
is tri'ling With n very serious question
Who is To bring about the changes that
would give to every woman matrimon-
tally inclined an opportunity to secure
good husband? Who IS to compel
single men to seek wives? Let Mr.
Hanna look at the surplus of women
in Massachusetts and see If he can't
bring in bill to remedy the chronic
and growing social defect.
Having done that. could not he and
other statesmen who share his opin-
ions on this subject give thoughtful at
tention TO the fact that three ourths
of the inmates OF lunatic asylums in
New England, are the wives OF farm
ers. and the further fact that most of
the farmers in New England who are
40 years OF age are living with their
second wives? AS that tremendous de-
mand for and consumption of women
still leaves surplus why does Mr..
Hanna urge that it is the fault of wo-
men IF they haven't any husbands

compromise will be found by China s
re-establishing and naming peace COM
missioners. Official intimations have
reached Washington that steps are now
being taken by China towards the APP
pointment of such peace commission.
In that event. it is believed by dip
lomatic officials that the entire status
of the negotiations between the Powers;
might be changed, and that. Russia no
longer would feel impelled to insist
upon the withdrawal of her minister
and troops from Pekin, as all these
matters would be subject for the COM
mission itself to deal with. 1t is
pointed out also in the six days since
the Russian and American notes were
given to the world, the sentiment has
been growing steadily in favor of con-
tinuing the presence of troops at Pekin.
THE UNITED STATES COMMITTED.

to the Russian proposal to withdraw

that the genuineness of Lii Hung

New York. Sept. 5.--The National
party-the official name OF the third
party-met in convention to-day in
Carnegie Hall and nominated candi-
dates for President and Vice President
of the United States. A platform was
adopted and u title and emblem chosen.
These are the candidates:
For President-Donald Caffery, of
Louisiana.
For Vice resident-Archibald Muir
ray Howe, of Cambridge. Mass.
The platform adopted pledges that
the party:
First-to procure the remuneration of
all imperial or colonial pretensions with
regard to foreign countries claimed to
have been acquired through or in con-
sequence of military or naval opera
tons of the last two years.
Second-We further pledge our efforts
to secure single gold standard and a
sound banking system.
Third-To secure n public service
based on merit only.
Fourth-To secure the abolition of ali
corrupting special privileges, whether
under the guise of subsidies. bounties,
undeserved pensions or trust breeding
tariffs.
The convention was called to order
by Thomas NJ. Osborne. of Auburn, N.
Y. who presided at the Indianapolis
preliminary meeting a month ago.
Everett V. Abbott was secretary. All
the delegates were volunteers who had
replied by their presence to the invi-
tation issued to all persons in sympathy
with the objects of the party.
1t was decided that the party was to
be known as national party and that
it's emblem to be the statue of liberty
on the Capitol dome at Washington.
A resolution was passed instructing
the campaign committee when it shall
be appointed, to provide pastors for
voters.

They don't ask to run Il govern
