BRYANISM AND INDIANA.
Would Do Well to Give Some
Attention.

1t is worthy of note that while Mr..
Bryan is in the east adiuring his par
ty friends to be steadfast in their de-
votion to the Chicago platform, the
democrats of Indiana have elected a
gold man chairman of their state COM
mittee. The champions of silver warm
ly opposed the selection, but they were
out-maneuvered and out-voted. Drift
was decidedly against them. Indiana
was long a democratic state, but when
Mr.. Bryan came to the front and made
free silver theissue, sentiment changed
and the republicans took charge. They
have been in charge ever since, and
are now in complete charge. A repub-
lican governor, two United States sem
ators, a republican ma jority of the
delegation in the house of representa-
tives, and a republican majority of the
state legislature attest the power of
Organism as a disintegrating force.
Hence this change, and this notice to
the public by the Indiana democrats
of an effort to try and return to saner
counsels under a new leadership, says
the Washington Star.
The effect of this change will be
tested before the next presidential
race. The next legislature will choose
a successor to Mr.. Fairbanks in the
senate, and that gentleman is a can
dfdate to succeed himself. He is a
very strong man, and one of his par
tvs national leaders. He has been men
toned with respect for the presidency,
and is frequently mentioned now rs the
probable running mate with Mr.. Roose-
welt in 1904 He is popular at home,
and if he is to be defeated for return
to the senate it can only be accom-
plished by the most strenuous and
wisely conducted campaign on the
part of his opponents.
1t is easily TO be seen how much a
victory over Mr.. Fairbanks would be
worth to the Indiana democrats. The
state would be lifted Immediately into
consideration as the best fighting
ground for 1904, and the democratic
leaders brought forward in the spec
uIatton respecting national candi-
dates. Play to secure the first place
would be fully authorized, and if that
missed, play for second place would
follow and probably be successful.
The democrat who presented himself
as the successor to Mr.. Fairbanks in
the senate would be between March 4,
1903, and the meeting Of the next dem
ocratic national convention, one of the
most conspicuous men in his party.
Speechmaking in the east has its
charms, but Mr.. Bryan would do well
to give some time to Indiana. 1t is a
! great state, considered with re-
spect to the next presidential race,
uTThe mayors presidential boom is
being inflated at home. 1t will be nee
essary, however, to first convince the
democrats of Ohio that he is an avail.
able man, and then bring the demo-
Gratis of the nation to the same way
of thinking. At present the mayors
prospects are not very rosy.-Cleve-

Havana, Jan. 29.-During yester-
days trial of the charges growing
out of the Cuban postal frauds, In
spector Gregory continued his testi-
mony. He said that according to the
report of Inspectors Sullivan and
Leatherman, there were only 357,1S4
surcharged stamps on hand May 20,
1899, or 35,404 stamps less than were
credited to the account of burned
stamps September II, 1899. Gregory
said this difference was probably
10000, as no record was kept of cash
sales and as no more stamps were
received during the interval from the
United States.
Regarding the surplus cash found
by Sullivan and Leatherman, May 26,
Gregory testified that G.. +. W. Neely
was not charged with about $4,000
in various items and that conSe-
quently there should have been de-
ficiency instead of a surplus. Greg
ory said that Estes G. Rathbone made
two reports, one 10 Gen. Brooke, cX.
governor general of Cuba, and the
other to the postmaster general, June
80, 1899. and that the figures in these
two reports did not agree.
Havana, Jan. 30.-FOurtcen wit
nesses were heard yesterday during
,he hearing of the postoffice frau.i
cases. Inspectors Hamilton, Keys
end Waters corroborated the testi.
mony given by Inspector Gregory re.
garding the inspection of accounts
and the ascertaining of the amount
of the frauds. EX-Assistant Auditor
Reynolds said that book was opened
for the accounts of the postotfices OF
Cuba, but that no entries had been
made in it

The cZar of Russia desires the holy
synod to annul the communication
of Count Tolstoy before that great
philosopher dies, but NJ. Pobiedonos-

posed to the idea-so strongly, indeed,
that his majesty has given up trying
for it, and washes his hands of all re-
sponsibility by saying that if failure
to give Tolstoy Christian burial causes
revolutionary outbreaks it will be the
procuratOr's fault.

1t is the opinion of some of the best
of our officers that we have been
showing rather too much Difference to
the Spanish language in the Philip
pine islands, and that we could not do
better than to bring the English tom
que to the front in every possible way,
encouraging its public and private use
as the general medium of communca-
ton But we infer from this latest re-
port that this is just what is now being
done. Spanish exists in the islands
simply because 1t was the tongue of
the civil and military authorities who
preceded us in occupation.

DAVIS TO ARMSTRONG.

Following is copy of Governor Davis letter to Chairman Armstrong:
 Little Rock. Ark, July 1S 1902. Hon. Carroll Armstrong, Chairman of the State Democratic Executive Committee, Little Rock Ark.
 My Dear Sir and Frend-I understand that yourself and other members of the state dem ocrattc executive committee feel personally of tended at my remarks about your actions in the making of these appointments between Col Murphy and Hon. Harry Myers, Hon. Charles Greaves and myself, being in the interest of the Clayton ticket.
 did not at the time of this interview be- lieve that the chairman of the state democrat tc central committee any of its members were capable of willfully conspiring with the Clayton ring against democracy, do think so now. My intention to infer that if the appointments stood as they were made it would initiate in favor of Claytonism, which all true democrats want to destroyed.
 l have no desire to offend yourself any member of the central committee, and I now withdraw any charges which may have seemed to be construed rehccting any member of the committed.
 As the democratic nominee for governor, l feel that it is my duty to meet in joint discus sion the nominee for governor of both wings of the republican party ill this state, but if the democratic executive committee thinks other wise then, in the interest of harmony, I am willing to acquiesce in the action of the con- mittee, and will cheerfully comply with it's decisions.

 Regnald Briggs saw at once that some thing was the matter. Instinctiyely his hand went up to his necktie It seemed to be in place, and his collar had not come un- buttoned.

'Go away Do not put me to the test. Oh, heaven! This is terri ble!"

TOT joint discussions between Gov Davic and MT Myers alone We may add that Nr NhaS' Jacobson. private secretary to Gov Davis
 was present at this last conference and re- stated Gov. Davis position that hc would not engage i'll joint debate with Mr. Myers unless MT GfeaVes were also permitted to partici- Pate. GoV. Davis knew that the chairman would be in Little Rock for the sole and express cause of holding this conference and so did AIT. GreayeS; but both of them left the city the night before on the same train There was then presented to the committee the all tefhatiVe of having NIT. Myers trapse over the S'Ate or of securing some other loyal democrat to meet him. We thought it unwise to have MT AlyerS spend his will and exercise his nuent fancy upon our party, its principles and It's nominees, with none to answer him. We, thereupon' applied to Hon. George W. Murphy. democratic nominee for attorney general to come to the aid of committee and of our party and meet Mir. Myers. He, most cheer fully and Loyalty placed himself in the hands or the committee, and we proceeded to arrange Tor and to advertise forty -four appointments for joint debate between Gen. Murphy and Mir. Myers beginning at Stuttgart July 23. We nave read ill the papers signed statement rom Gov. Davis, charging that, In the action detailed above, we playing in Be hands or the Clayton contingent of the republican party and stating, in substance. that he will be present and debate with Mir. Myers at Stutt- gart, that he has invited Mir. Greaves to join 1n same (which invitation has been accepted), and Indicating that it is his intention to thrust Col Murphy aside from the debate with Mir. Myers at Stuttgart and elsewhere. The charge that We are playing into the hands of the Clayton republicans embodies the insinuation either that we are mere tools and puppets, be- ing made use of by the Clayton republicans or that We are corruptly acting in unison with them. We deem it scarcely necessary to say to the democrats of this state that said charge is utterly and unqualifedly false in every par ticular.
 We are engaged in conducting one campaign not two; and We shall best endeavors to bring about the triumphant election of all democratic nominees, State district, county and township, on the first Monday in next Septem Der. We do not fear to meet MT. Myers any other enemies of grand old -""t:;, whether within or without its folds. We seek no reward for ourselves. your continued confidence and respect. We shall be at Stutt- gart on July 23, when Mir Murphy will meet Sr. Myers. There shall be Interference with that meeting. Individually, personally and as q committee, feel that it is duty to afford all necessary protection to all loyal democrats who render us their aid in con ducting the pending campaign.
