SENATOR GoRNAN FOR CHAIRMAN

SENATOR GORNAN FOX CHAIkMAN'
IL is reported from New York that
IS q result of the conference held in
that city OF "a number OF leading
Democrats, Senator German has
been asked to become chairman oil
the Democratic National Committee,
and that he has taken the matter
under Amusement. SenatorGorman
is one of the ablest politicians in the
Democratic party, and il heis elected
chairman and accepts the position
there is no question that the cam
paign will be conducted in the most
efficient manner. Mr.. German had
charge OF the Cleveland campaign In
1888, when Mr. Cleveland was elected
President. and exactly how much
credit MIR. German deserves for the
success attending that campaign is
problematical, butin view OF the fact
shat it was the first successful Demo-
cratic fight for the presidency for
more than forty years, and that it
has been repeatedly claimed 10y Sena-
t0r Germans friends that success
was largely due to his able general
ship, the presence of she Senator at
the head OF the National Committee
in this campaign would give the De
moeraey prestige such as it would
gain by the presence oino other man.
Ii is to be hoped that Mr.. German
will see his way clear 10 accept the
appointment, and that the Democ-
racy will then be assured the most
capable leadership.

The Republicans are very much in
hopes that Senator German will not
accept the craftsmanship OF the Dem.
ocratic party, rendered him by the
conference held with Judge Parker
the other day. They know that the
Senator Is one OF the ablest cam
paigners in this country, and that
when he undertakes n duty he goes
at it with a will and a determination
30 succeed il there is any possibility
OF success. And there is strong
probability of success with such II
stainless and able man as Parker at
the head Of the ticket and such n
splendid campaigner as Senator Cor
man, and especially is this she case
when the party is united on the tick
ct, even those who failed TO vote
with the party heretofore because OF
the financial differences.

1t is thought that the United States
can hardly be drawn into cOntrover-
sy with England and Russia over the
searching OF vessels passing through
the Red Sea and the Suez Canal, This
view arises from the fact that the
number of vessels Of this country
passing through the canal, including
warships and Manila transports,
have scarcely averaged one year
for several years past. SO England
and those countries whose vessels
have been searched must settle the
matter with Russia.

the places of the strikers are being
filled with other men as fast as they
can be gotten. 1t is difficult TO tell
