THE CAMPAIGN OF 1904.

Our Washington dispatches with refer
cncc to President Roosevelt position. and
the success or the BIYau-il"7rSt combine
ton in selling the reips ri the demo IA

much. AS our WASHINGTON correspondent
says. ii now looks as if lhc light will be
between Mr.. Roosevelt ana a Iryin-
Heart combination.
The heht Of the "hiGh finance" against
Mr. Roosevelt has pricticaily ended. in
the entire defeat OF the former FOR more
than a year the most strenuous, scientific
and varied efforts have been made to
dscrodit the President in the eyes of his
party and the people. and ut times these
efforts have not ben characterized b.
what might be called an oVer-ulcoty Of
taste. They have. however, failed. ana
one by one the principal elements in the
"high finance have confessed failure and
abandoned a hopeless task. Hut one
thing remains to he triod, and that is
doomed to failure with tho rest. namely,
an effort to make people believe that the
President has compromised with the high
iinarce" in some way or other He has
Of course, done nothing Of the kind, for
he has nothing to COMPROMISE. Naverthe
loss. this has not prevented the attempt
TO involve the administration ia the fate
of the Foraker bill which bill looks very
much as ii II were in the nature of a
sharp knife intended for tho President
back. There ie. however, no d1naer of
the public being mislod 'th respect t.
this matter. and il is now reasonably
clear that Mr. Roosevelt Will bc nOninat-
cd without opposition by the republican
convention.

DEATH OF SENATOR HANNA,

While the public has been prepared :,
certain extent for the fatal termination
OF Senator Hanna's Illness. the announce
ment Of his death will come as distinct
shock to the whole people of this broad
land. Senator Hanna had won a warm
place in the American heart. He had
shown the possession of qualities which
appeal with irresistible force to the ad-
ministraton Of the American people. He
had achieved marked success as bust
ness man through a high order of ability
combined with rare force of character,
and he had rounded out his political
career by winning a place in the public
eyI attained by comparatively few men
Ia any generation He had shown him
self to be one of tho most successful, if
not the Sreates4 OF political organizers

ing Qua'f.es as man which made h n,
pae@har with the leaders Of the opposite
panty as wt.l as with the ran.i and file
Of his own political organisa ion.
Comparatively few man go into politics,
and gain suoh national prominence
after they have reached the age of fifty
eight. but Senator Hanna was peculiarly
favored by existing conditions He UNI
oonditionally allied his political fortunes
20 those Of the lamented Mckinley. Civ

an ardent admrer and sincere friend

relative TO the mention OF his name for
The republican nomination for tho COVER
rorShip or the state, Mr.. Dell stated that
IN view Of tho favorable adviccs received
from many gcctions of the state nc feels
constrained 10 allow the use Of his name
as q candidate for the honor.
In reply t. "a question regarding the
important s. uCs confronting She people
Of the state nj tho present time Mr. Bell
said that he had practically outlined ms
iieos on tho most Important matters be-
fore II" people Of o." state in an address
in PutlluG some Wocfs ago.
In that address he erphasizcd the need
OF reform in taxation and tho necessity
of legislation that would compel al prop

lie also discussed at length the press
INK mood Of permanent highways and ad-
vocatcd government aid for tho construo-
ton of good roads.
Another subject discussed by Mr.. Bell
was the way in which people are being
dctraulo1 through the substitution of
spurious and aIritclatcd foot products for
genuine goods. and he advocated legisln-
tion to protect both tho producer and the
consumer.
MI Boll spoke Of the need OF closer

ROOSEVELT AND FAIRBANKS.

The certstnty Of the denomination Of
President Roosevelt having been prac-
tically established. the republican lead
ers arc turning their attention to tho Sc
lection Of Mr.. Roosevelt's running mate.
Judging from comment reported from
various quarters the carrent OF opinion
IS tending very strongly in the direction
Of Senator Fairbanks Of Indiana, whom
the republicans OF Burlington had the
pleasure Of hearing IN III. last national
cAmpaign. II Is, OF coure, to early to pre-
dict tho result Of the vice presidential
canvass with any degree OF assurance,
but the probabilities seem to point very
strongly in the direction OF tho popular
statesman from the Wooster State.
There was q time when politicians re-
garded the linking Of the names of New
York and Indiana rs a desirable achieve
ment In politics, as witness the NOM
ination Of Tiiden and Hendricks by the
democrats in 1876 and Cleveland and
Hendricks in 1854 and the republican
ticket OF Harrison and Morton in 1sSS
and Of Harrison and Reid in 1882 In the
last two national campaigns New York
lost some Of its political Importance.
owing to the sweep Of numerous States
into the republican column, but discus
sion Of various possibilities during the re-
publican preliminaries have served to
turn attention anew to what were long
classed as the great doubtful States I'm
der all the circumstances it would not be
strange IL the republicans should regard
II good politics to again link the Empire
and Hoossr States on tho national ticket
particularly as the democratic candidate
for the presidency is likely to be chosen
from a list Of prominent residents Of the
American metropolis or It's suburbs
Cleveland. Hearst OF Mcclellan.
Senator Crliom OF Illinois Is predicting
the selection OF Fairbanks for the vice
presidential nomination., and Secretary
Moody of the navy seems 10 have given
the Indiana mans boom something of
an administration blessing by asking:
why not Senator Fairbanks7' Many
things are liable to happen of course be-
tween now and the date Of the republican
national convention that will completely
change the situation, but there is no mis-
taking the trend Of opinion at the present
