Born to lead.

We think it quite safe to say that your
uncle, Matthew Stanley Quay, is not yet
permanently eliminated political factor.
A great many worthy gentleman would
like to think So, and some of them are
endeavoring through mere violence of
assertion to make themselves believe it.
But we warn them against building any
structures of hope and aspiration uron
that very insecure and fragile corner
stone.
The Post had occasion to make a some
what similar prophesy few years ago in
the case of Hon. A. p. German, of Mary
land.
Mr.. German, also, was victim of par
ty treachery and the forces of hypocrisy
and cant, but Mr.. German is not out of
Maryland or national politics to-day-in-
deed he is stronger than he was ten years
ago.
And so it is with Mr.. Quay. Hum
bugs, traitors, dupes and tools may win
a fight occasionally, but the common
sense of the people sooner or later re-
sumes its sway and the qualities of real
leadership recover their place in the re-
spect and confidence Of the party organi-
zation. 1t has happened thus in Cor
mans case, it will happen thus in MI
QUAY s, These two men have come TO
the front by. the operation of natural
laws. They were born to lead. They
have the brains, the strength, the skill
and the indomitable loyalty to which the
turn by instinct.
Mr.. Quay is not tout of it," Let no
enemy of his delude himself with that
absurd idea. He will be power in his
State when the little creatures who have
won this petty triumph oyer him shall
have follen back into the ruck of insig-
niticance and mediocrity, from which ac-
cident has for a moment snatched them.

There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few years was
supposed to be incurable. For great
many years doctors pronounced it local
disease, and prescribed local remedies,
and bv constantly falling to cure with
local treatment. pronounced il incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to he a con-
stitutional disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by f. j. Cheney Il
Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitu-
tional cure on the market. 1t is taken
internally in doses from 10 drops to a
teaspoonful. 1t acts directly on the blood
ard mucous surfaces of the system. They
offer one hundred dellars for any case it
fails to cure. Send for circulars and tes-
timonials.

Four years ago, weeks before the Ma
tional convention was held, Gen. Gros-
venor, of Ohio, figured out McKinley's
nomination, and as his prophecy was
borne out by the action of the convention
the General became famous as a political
prophet. Taking it for granted that Nc
Kinley and Bryan will be the candidates
this year Prophet Grosvencr names Nc
Kinley. as sure winner. He puts it
thus: "There are 447 electoral votes, 224
being necessary to elect. OF those which
Gen. Grosvenor terms sure, he gives Nc
Kinley 260 and Bryan Ia Delaware and
Kansas, with total of l3 votes, he places
in the doubtful list. The States counted
as sure for Mckinley are California, Con-
necticut, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Maine,
Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New
Hampshire, New Jersey, New York,
North Dakota, Ohio, Oregon Pennsylva-
mia, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Ver-
mont, Washington, West Virginia, Wis
consin and Wyoming. OF these, Wash
ington, Wyoming and South Dakota
were carried by Bryan in 1896. and he
also received one vote from California.
All four have since given Republican
majorities. All the Southern States are
conceded to Bryan, and with them Colo
RADIO, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada and
Utah. In 1896 Mckinley carried Mary
land and got twelve ofthe thi' teen elect
oral votes of Kentucky. Mckinley also
carried Deleware, one of the two doubtful
states, by $3.50 majority, while Bryan
carried the other, Kansas, by 1929.
Both states went Republican in 1898.
Delaware by 2,739 and Kansas by 15,134
majority.

In saying that Bryan is the man the
Republicans want to see nominated in
Kansas City, Wharton Barker is clearly
correct. Barker was nominated for
President in 1895 by the Middle-ot-the-
Road Populists. He may be indorsed
for that office by that element at its ma
tional convention in Cincinnati next
week. He SUI ported Bryan four years
ago, but will, of course, be against him
this year. He knows the feeling in the
populist ranks toward Bryan. lie knows,
too, how the Republicans feel on the
subject of Bryan's candidacy. Bryan
will be an easy man for the Republicans
this year to beat, and consequently there
will be iubilations among them when
thenews comes that he has been renomi-
mated.

How Not TO Reduce the Surplus.

The free traders got up a sentiment in
favor of free trade once by their de-
nounciation of the TO them) horrible fact
that the National Treasury showed sur
plus. Encouraged by their success that
time, some of them are evidently think
ing of repeating their tactics now. They
are disguised, therefore, at the apparent
readiness evinced by some of their fellow
free traders to acquiesce in reducing in
ternal revenue taxes, for the purpose of
reducing the national surplus of revenue.
They might just as well let their fellow
free traders alone, though. AS between
a surplus and deficit, the people prefer
surplus, and SO they are not likely to
make the mistake second time of yot-
ing for defirit-producing policy of free
trade for the sake of getting rid of the
surplus which has been acquired under
the protective policy. They will undoubt-
edly find some way ofmaking the national
income and national outgo approximate
ly balance. but it won't be by doing away
with the policy which means prosperity
and surplus and substituting for it the
policy which means both national and
individual poverty and debt.

DEMOCRATIC prophets are basing pre-
dictions of success on the fact that the
Republicans by enacting sound money
legislation, in obedience TO solemn
pledges, have made free silver legislation
impossible; hence the gold Democrats
can safely vote with the silverites, as the
latter, while they talk silver for political
effect, can enact no legislation. The dark
days of 1893 and the hard times of 1896
are not so far away, however. Both bus
mess men and labor know that threat.n-
ed legislation is almost as destructive to
prosperity as the actual passage of vic
ious laws

GOVERNOR STEUNENBERG, of Idaho,
has been calling down some of the yellow
journals, especially the San Francisco
Examiner and the New York journal, of
Mr.. W. X. Hearst. Both these Democrat
ic papers misrepresented the governors
testimony in the Idaho mining investiga-
tion. They exaggerated that given by
the rioters minimized, contorted and
misrepresented that given by the author
tiles. The governor pronounces as an
outrageous lie the statement of the yell
lows that when he gave Jas. r. Sover-
eign as his authority for certain state
ments to which he testified, Sovereign
arose and exclaimed, "That is lie !" On
the contrary, as everyone present knows,
Sovereign sat silent and abashed, and
said nothing. There are evidently no
yellow fake sheets printed in Idaho or
the gouernor would he used to such
things.
