POLITICAL NOTES AND GOSSIP.

Confident s1Fat-Friers."-In the Man
ufacturers' Club at Philadelphia Saturday
a Times representative heard some very
confident predictions Of Mr.. McKinley's
reelection by popular and electoral ma
jorities considerably larger than those Of
1896 The membership OF the Manufactu-
rers' Club represents large part of the
Republican strength in the nation The
name Of the organization indicates the
dominant character Of its membership. 1t
was in this club that the "fat-fryiag" was
done by Mr.. Quay. Mr.. Wanamsker, and
others for the Harrison campaign fund.
The members of the club have always
been liberal contributors to the RepubH-
can campaign funds. This year, however,
they probably will refuse to respond in
the usual liberal manner to the demands
or the party managers for cash. One Of
the leading members OF the club explained
1t IN this way: You see, for thirty years
or more the tariff issue has been upper
most in the campaigns for the Presidency
and Congress. IN the Dingley tariff we
have all in that line we want. The Sen
ate viii be Republican for at least four
years. and maybe six years. therefore,,
we are not apprehensiye Of adverse tariff
legislation within that period. Even il
the next .wo Houses should be over
whelmingly: Democratic the tariff rates
could not be disturbed. Besides
this comfortable feeling OF secur-
ity on the legislative end of the
proposition, We are confident Mr. Nc
hinley can be triumphantly reelected
without our assistance. The Republican
party was never better organized than at
present. nor was there ever more thor
ough harmony in the rank and file Of the
party. My business correspondence
brings me into communication with e=ery
section OF the country. and in sreaking
thus / am only rejecting the eVs OF my
correspondents. OF course, the managers
OF Mr.. McKinley's campaign viii need
money. / am aware that we ha Te not yet
reached That ideal condition in our poll
tics when money, and lots OF il, is not
needed TO win elections But the manu-
facturers Will not have to stand the bur
den OF the expense this year. We have
discussed this subject very frankly with
Mr.. Hanna and other gentlemen who will
manage the campaign. and they under
stand our attitude. Hence they will look
to other quarters for their campaign fund
The manufacturers now have a chance to
rest and reeGperate. The fat viii have to
be fried out OF some other interests this
time"
