M'Kinley May Lose Ohio.

Ex-Attorney General Frank
S. Monnet of Ohio in an inter-
view on the 10Th inst. says Ohio
will be lost to the Republicans
this fall.
II do not see how the Repub>
lican, party can escape punish
ment this fall" said he.
THE platform of the Repub-
lican party in Ohio strongly
condemns the trusts and their
unlawful methods. I was elected
as attorney general of Ohio On
such platform, and as the off,
Ger of the state and the epre~
sentative of the party l carried
out as best l could the platform
of the party.
Yet was not supported in this
by many of the leaders, and the
party organs criticised me for
doing just what the platform of
my party pledged me to do.
Newspapers of the state, about
no of them, printed paid a1ti>
cles c1iticising my actions and
they, too, party newspapers.
.n,"This is not all. The Legisla-
ture which has just adjourned
killed the Russell bill and the
maximum freight bill, and that
too by almost a strict party
vote. Will not the people pun>
ish the party for such actions
upon the part Of its servants?
The party, as such, is not in
sympathy with such methods.
Although the Russell bill Was
bill No. 10, it was side>tracked
by the trust lobbyists and held
back until near the adjournment
and then over the protest of
some of the best men in TIL par,
ty, and almost all of
the Democratic members, it
was defeated. This was a repu>
diation ofthe party platform and
the sentiment of the party. I
cannot believe that We will es>
cape punishment, and I believe
it viii come this fall. Why should
not the party be punished when
the men who control its actions
disregard the will of the people"

The Honor of the Nation.

It is very like an insult to the
American people to say that the
honor of the nation is involved
in the scandals Of the Mckinley
administration. 1t suggests "par
ticeps criminis" on the part of
the man who voted tor M CKin-
ley, and also suggests to the
mind Of an intelligent citizen
that the "dishonor" of the nation
may be wiped out by wiping out
the cause of it. That this will
happen next November is fast
becoming a certainty.

WHEELER WILL
 RETIRE SEPT. 10 PIucky Little General Will Have
 Reached Age Limit. HAS NO OPTION IN MATTER First American Army Officer to Receive a Commission After Reaching the
 Voluntary Retiring Age-His
 Successor in Command
HAS NO OPTION IN MATTER

Washington, August 30.-General Joseph Wheeler in command of the Department of the Lakes, with headquarters at Chica- 10, on account of the age limit On that day General Wheeler will be GA years old, and he has no option about retiring, as the law which regulates this matter provides that an army officer is permitted at 62, but retires involuntarily at 64.
 General Wheeler Is perhaps the first American army officer who received com mission after reaching the voluntary retir- ing age. General E. s. Otis, formerly the military governor of the Philippines, will succeed General Wheeler in command of the Department of the Lakes. General Otis Is now engaged upon the work of finishing his report upon conditions In the Philip pines up to the time of his departure, and as this work is about completed it will not interfere with his assignment to Chicago, which was decided upon some time ago.
 General Wheelers retirement will leave a vacancy in the grade of brigadier gen. eral of the regular army. and the Presi- dent has before him list of officers who are deemed eligible for promotion. The t"o ohhoSiS coHSiucieu hhoSI hheiy lo DS promoted are Brigadier General Leonard Wood and Major General A. R. Chaffee, both of whom are in the volunteer service. In the regular service the rank of General Wood Is that of Captain, while General Chaffee's rank is that of Colonel General Wood bas done excellent work in Cuba, and the President is anxious to reward him. and the service of General Chaffee in China has been of such character as to en- title him to a reward, which the President would like to bestow. It will be a hard matter for the President to determine which of these officers is most entitled to promotion but there are many who believe General Chaffee will win the prize.
