War Minister belongs is working with the
energy OF desperation to destroy it. If
the Hay Pauncefote Treaty should be rati-
fed there would be no Monroe Doctrine

take the place of wood for fuel. And that was

POLITICAL NOTES AND GOSSIP.

This week the Pops.-The Populists
will hold two national conversions this
week. Both will assemble on Wednesday
one at Cincinnati and the other at Sioux
Falls. S. D. Nearly ali OF the Populist
members of Congress. including Senators
Butler. Allen. Pettigrew, and Harris, and
Representatives Bell and Shafroth of Colo
RADIO, will attend the Sioux Falls conven-
tion. 1t is a foregone conclusion that this
assembage will nominate Bryan and leave
the second place on the ticket vacant. to
be filled by the National Committee after
the Kansas City convention has named
running mate for Bryan. 1t is considered
probable that an effort Of some strength
will be made to complete the ticket at
Sioux Falls. but it is generally believed
that this will have for its serious purpose
only the interest of some candidate for the
regular Democratic Vice Presidential nomi-
nation. AS the name of the Hon. Charles A.
TCwne of Duluth, is most frequently men
toned as the one that is likely to ma
great favor among the PopulstS and free
silver Republicans as we'll it is regarded
as not unlikely that his admirers at Sioux
Falls will take such action concerning
him as will call attention to him at Kan
sas City in the most favorable way pos
sible. 1t is not believed a platform any
more radical than that of 1896 will be
adopted. and aside from declarations on the
new issues of trusts ard Imperialism it Is
thought the principles enunciated Will be
virtually the same as those for which the
Popuists fought four years ago. 1t is con-
tidtnty expected in all quarters that in
poict of numbers. excitement, and pictur-
esquenes5 the Cincinnati convention will be
much more interesting than its rival at
SIOUX Falls. If reports are true it is evil
dent lat a great deal of money has been
spent N drumming up an attendance at
Cincinnati. Senators Butler Pettigrew.
and Allen openly charge that this money
was provided by Mark Hanna and other
managers of the Republican machine for
the purpose of creating all of the trouble
possible in the Populist ranks in the close
States OF the West. Who will be nomi-
mated at Cincinnati nobody pretends to
know 1t is not believed TO be possible
for this crowd to Offer the nomination to
Bryan, for Barker Donnelly. and others
of their leaders have been denouncing the
Nebraskan many weeks as the roe OF
Populism, and the disguised agent OF piu-
tocracy. A year or more ago Barker and
Donnelly were nominated for President and
Vice President at Cincinnati by a con-
vention of the same elements that will as
semble there Wednesday. 1t is thought
that among the first acts of the conven-
tion will be the formal acceptance of the
declination of these two eminent statesmen
of the honors of leadership conferred upon
them so far in advance of the opening of
the 1860 campaign. But that Donnelly and
Barker will control the convention is
practically assured.

The evidence on which the State court
at Frankfort has decided to hold Culton.
one Of the Goebel murder suspects with
out bail, would be simply startling II it
had not been foreshadowed for some time.
The State apparently has made out Il
strong case of conspiracy to assassinate the
late Governor Of Kentucky, in pursuance of
which the crime was committed. When the
friends of W. S Taylor read the proceed
ings in the examination, and particularly
the testimony Of the repentant consplrator.
Golden, they will be apt to think that the
Bluegrass Republican leader was injudl-
cious in not accepting the protection of
Governor Roosevelt when he had the
chance. Perhaps even now he might find
it good for his health to take a little run
over to Indianapolis for a visit to his
friends, Mount and Finley.

An OF CIo' Accident.-The Hon
Willard Duncan Vandiver of the Four
teenth Missouri district has been lila de
the victim of a very stupid mis- AXE on
the part of some Of his hired help. Several
days ago Representative Vandiver closed
up his house in Washington for the season
and sent his family home. He ordered large
lot of pub. docs. sent TO valued constit-
uent in a remote section of his district
This bundle, though quite bulky. was sent
through the mail on MIR. Vandiver's frank,
can postmaster at st. Louis, without ap-
parent warrant for meddling with the af-
fairs Of a member OF Congress- had this
bulky package detained en- route and
opened IN his presence. Mixed up indis-
criminately with the pub. does. were some
old clothes that no respectable statesman
would wear either in Missouri or Wash
ington. The very dilapidated appearance
of the garments would have suggested to
any mind not gangrened with partisan
prejudice that Representative andiyer had
not meant to abuse the franking privilege
by having these old clothes secreted liz
the bundle OF pub. docs. And yet the Re
publican postmaster of st. Louis has raised
a mighty howl and the partisan press all
over the country has taken up the cry
against Mr.. Vandiver. TIE Missourlan ex-
plains that the clothes evidently got INTO
the bundle through the earelessness of some
of his household servants. He Temembe
that the bulky mail package was made up
while he was dismantling his Washington
residence. ard is onvinced that by the mer-
est accident the old clothes we're tossed into
the package. Still, the Missouri Repub-

Uncertainty in HoosierdOm. - The
situation in the Indiana Democracy seems
to be one of the most uncertain Of any in
the country. Mr.. Bryan's positive declara-
ton that his visit the other day to South
Bend had nothing whatever to do with the
rumored candidacy of the Hon. B. F.
Shively of that place. for the Vice Presi-
dency, coupled with the further positive
expression of belief that this distinguished
HOosier Is not candidate. would appear
to wholly remove Shiyely from the list OF
probabilities. Indianans in Washington
are generally agreed that Shively could get
the united support of the part in his
State for second place on the ticket If he
wanted 1t, and if it is true that he actual
ly does not desire the nomination ii can
not be said that the signs are propitious
for the national Democracy in Indiana this
year. 1t is understood here that Shvely
prefers the nomination for Governor to
that OF Vice President. and that he Is
doing all he can to crafty this ambition.
The Hon. Tom Taggart, Mayor of Indian
apclis, also is known to very much desire
the guberDatoriai nomination. despite his
repeated denials OF late that he is even a
receptive candidate. Apparently the
Hoosier Democrats are convinced that their
State ticket this year is destined to fare
very well. in view, of the weakness OF the
Republican State ticket recently nominated
at Indianapolis after some bitter fighting
Also 1t is apparent that they are not feel
ing so hopeful as to the chances of the
national ticket in their State. The con-
sensus OF opinion in Washington seems to
be that Sbively would make the strongest
candidate for Governor that the Democrats
could nominate against the Hon. Winfield
Taylor Durbin. 1t is stated by well-in-
formed Indianans in this city that the
nomination of shvely would be almost
certain to SO strengthen the Democratic
lines all through Indiana as to afford the
party an excellent chance of carrying the
Fifth, Seventh, Eighth, Eleventh, and
Thirteenth Congressional districts. which
are now represented. respectively by
