FIGHTING AGAINST CAUCUS.
CantriII, Wheeler, and Smith OppOS.
ing NcCrenry's Efforts.

FRANKFORT, KY, Jan. S.-NOw that
the Speakerships are out of the way, the
Democrats discuss the Senatorial contest
by names of members rather than by the
number of votes each candidate will get
in the balloting. There were practically
no developments today, save the deter
mination of Cantrill, Wheeler. and Smith
TO oppose McCreary's efforts for a caucus
this week.
A caucus may be held Monday night
and vote taken Tuesday as precaution-
airy measure to guard against any tech
nicality of the lava and another vote
taken on the second Tuesday.
McCreary's friends say they have no
doubt of being able to win the moment
the hindmost candidate is dropped. A
meeting of McCreary's friends has been
held and an organization perfected. Forty
men were present at the meeting, and IT
is claimed that two other McCreary men
were not present. Forty-fve votes are
necessary to nominate, there being nine
ty-nine Democrats In the two houses.
The friends of Wheeler, Smith, and Can
trilI continue active and appear confident,
but there seems little prospect of a consbi-
nation. and with each day McCreary s
chances of eventual success appear
brighter.
The Republicans held a caucus tonight
and nominated Senator Deboe The names
of Congressman Vincent Boreng and
former Governor Bradley were by their
personal request not presented.

situation In WISCONSIN. lie wisely

ling alliances with any faction or

ON the necessity of wise action in

ablo and straightforward presentation
nC facts bearing upon the condition
which conlronts the voters of Wis

"'rho situation demands, in my
opinion, the representative Democrat

of the whole party. We have plenty
of good material to select from. Per-
sonal friendship should Toe entirely

tangling alliances, with any faction

absolutely certain. will have a large
majority hostile to the party platform.
There is but one solution to the
problem. The people of the state
look to the Democratic party, and 10
the Democratic party alone, for the
Legislation which the people need
The Democratic platform then should
contain:
Pledging the party to an honest and
economical administration of state
affairs
That all property in the state should
pay its just and equal proportion Of
taxes.
That public officials should be
restrained by legislation from partici-
pating in party conventions.
Honest civil service reform should
be demanded and legislation for that
purpose should be enacted.
The present system of nominations
should be abolished by law. The
Stevens primary election bill should
be condemned,
For myself, ] am in favor of the
principles Of the Crawford election
law Of Illinois / am in favor of
nominating delegates to nominate
candidates by u primary election.
TO propose that the $50 900 voters
in Wisconsin should pick out its can
didatcs for state officers by primary
election nominations, / consider a
gross absurdity | also believe the Sc
lection Of "a party candidate by a pIu-
raIity vote a dangerous method for
nominating candidates.. Generally in
the past the whole method Of caucus
and convention proved both safe,
honest, and satisfactory to the Demo
Gratis Of Wisconsin, and before adopt
ing new method, we want to feel
that it is better than the old.

A WRONG POSITION.

The Brooklyn Eagle takes Con-
gresham Babcock of this district TO
task FOR his recent utterances in re-
gard to the fact that foreigners are
getting protected articles cheaper
than Americans. Here is what Mr..
| Babcock said:
cit IL a rule OF trade that surplus
products must not be dumped on the
local market to dcmoraliZc prices
but must be sold outside The
disposal Of our surplus products
abroad at low prices keeps our mills
running all the year around working
men steadily employed, and SO main
tains prosperity"
TO this The Eagle replies:
Mr. BabcocIS's failure to realize
that high prices at home have de-
strOycd tariff system In the past is
strange He thinks that the men who
make and sell-not the men who use
and buy are to be mainly considered.
The latter, however, outnumbcr the
former by tens Of millions. The
American people will not always
cOntcntcdly be the highest charged
nhJlOn IN Jhe world.
"What our manufacturers can sell
for Mt II profit abroad they will yet
have to charge NJ home and no more.
A sewing machine, made here, costs
n new York seamstrcss $50. A seam
stress at Odessa, Russia, can buy
that machine for $l2. And that is the
case with thousands Of other protected
products. The protected interest
makes n profit at both prices,
1t is TO be regretted that Nj. Bah
cock has taken this backward step,
and shown his concern for the few
rather than for the many. In the |
session Of Congress recently ended he
gave promise Of rightly Interpreting
the sentiment Of the country touching |
the reduction Of tariff taxation. He |
introduced bill which provided that
u number of duties on iron and steel !
and their manufactures should be re-
duccd from 80 to 80 per cent. He
confessed that high duties ON iron
and steel prducts had enabled manu-
facturcrs to sell ut their own prices in
II protected market, and to build mp
great trusts dangerous TO the country.
Mr.. |abc0ct at the time of the intro
lucLion Of the bill said that the object
Of the measure was:
