/ TO the President. Congress passed reso-
luton authorizing the Director of the
| Census to compile statistics relating to
| irrigation for the crop year of 1902 With
I the data now assembled, this work will
be comparatively simple, most of II being
done by correspondence. To secure this
Information inquiries win soon be sent
out to irrigators throughout the United
States. The cooperation of those inter-
ested in irrigation is earnestly solicited
for upon their prompt response will de-
pend very largely the value of these sta
tistics. This Is In part a supplementary
work. the results of which will be uitil-
lied in the work soon to be undertaken
by the Department of the Interior under
the provisions of the irrigation bill.

DEMOCRACY AND BRYAN.
His influence With the Party Is Greater Than
Ever.

William j. Bryan's speech making trip
TO the Eastern States has revived interest
in hfs present position in the Democratic
party. and in what attitude he and the
party will stand toward each other in
the Presidential campaign two years
hence.
To ascertain the Democratic view of
the present situation and that which Is
likely to be presented in 1904, number of
the members of the Democratic National
Committee have expressed their opinion
upon Bryan's stanaing in the party and
what they regard as the leading issues in
the coming Congressional campaign.
Answers received from many of the
committeeman show general belief that,
while Bryan must be considered very
important factor, he is not at all likely
to be again nominated for President, nor
is 1t generally believed that he desires to
be nominated.
AS for the issues to be fought out
trusts, tariff revision and Imperialism ap-
pear to be regarded as the most import
ant Here are some of the replies:
Bryan is not candidate Imperialism
the chief issue-T c. Blanchard, Louis
lana.
Parker and Shepard types of coming
candidates. Daniels. North
Carolina.
Bryan stands well with party and will
continue, but cannot be nominated
John II. Senter Vermont
Bryan's influence stronger than at any
time since he entered public life--James
c. Dahlman. Nebraska.
Has the largest personal following and
should be considered in shaping party is
sues.-L f. Ryan. Wisconsin.
Revision to tariff laws and opposition
to trusts. two OF the leading issues
John T. McGarry, West Virginia.
Bryan is undispuated party leader and
as popular as ever-Homes s. Cummings.
Connecticut.
Bryan strong with the masses, but
without any chance of being their NOM
inee-R. NJ. Johnson. Texas.
The people believe in Bryan, who nei-
ther desires nor expects a third nomina-
tion.-H. B. Ferguson. New Mexico.
Kentucky Democrats are as devoted as
ever 10 William j. Bryan and ready TO
vote for him-Urey woodson, Kentucky.
Opposition to tariff and to great trusts
. the Democratic campaign issues Bryan
u therefore a lost important factor-Nor-
man r. Mack. New York.
Party reorganizers may do much TO
bring about Bryans nomination for a
third time.-Henry d. Clayton Alabama
Bryan IS the logical and natural leader
and will yet be President.-John G. john
son, Kansas.
Tennessee Democrats look for another
man than Bryan to run for the Presi-
dency.-J NJ. Head. Tennessee.
Bryan more popular than ever and sure
to be nominated.-John f. Osborne. Wy
oming.
Bryan stands very high with his party.
but too early to predict who will be NOM
mated for President by the Democrats -
Joseph r. Ryan; Nevada.

POLITICS AND POLITICIANS.
D. B. Hill in the Saddle.

Politicians in Washington interpret tho
results OF the New York Democratic State
convention as indicating clearly and un-
mistakably the Hon. David Bennett Hills
intention to send first. last and all the
time Hill delegation to the national
convention Of 1904. The ticket nomi-
mated at Saratoga represents Hills pur-
poses and ideals. While Bird S. Coler,
who heads the ticket. is recognized here
as young man Of eminent respectable
ity. still there is no Thought or expecta-
tion that he will lead his party. to vic
tory. as. in the opinion OF political ex-
perts. ne does not possess those qualities
which will appeal strongly to that great
body of Independent voters in New York,
who. time out of mind. have been the
determining factor in every important
campaign in the Empire State. In this
view of the case Mr.. Hill has deliber-
ately belittled the Importance OF the
campaign, and. OF course, does not ex-7
pect the ticket to be elected. Through
the work Of the Saratoga convention he
has been enabled once more to get con-
troll Of the organization of his party and
to become again the undisputed Demo-
cratic boss OF New York.

distinguishing himself in Congress las.
r-...-.e7z as a fierce and unyielding sup
porter Of the Dingley law even to tho

Mr.. Tawney is careful to explain, how
ever, that his advocacy OF tariff re-

the President will lead his party in this
important movement. In other words.
Mr. Tawney now wants to 10 what he

Hanna to Make Speeches.

Senator Hanna's announced purpose 20
make sevs-al speeches in West Virginia
is regarded by the politicians as one OF
the most significant features of the Con-
gressional campaign. The 0hioan is
much in demand as campaign orator,
and where he decides to speak is re-
garded as close ground. Your Uncle
Mark belongs to that extremely practi-
cal class of statesmen who believe IT
folly amounting almost to crime to
waste ammunition, and unless he
thought there was an actual demand for
his services he would not go to West
Virginia to make speeches. His decision
to do SO may account for the confidence
felt in Democratic circles OF reclaim
ing two districts in West Virginia this
year.
