to put it mildly. is doubtful. To express
more in detail the sentiment prevailing in
both parties here it might be said there
is every indication that the state will go
Democratic next fall.
THE ONLY IF INVOLVED, AC-
CORDING TO THE PROPHETS, RE
LATES TO SILVER AND THE DEMO
CRATIC PLATFORM.
If silver goes in, the state may be saved
to the Republicans. If silver is kept out
of the Democratic platform, they say, the
Democrats will surely win.
Victory would carry with it thirty-nine
electoral votes.
Democrats here are militant. They are
CHEEKY and hopeful of good things to come.
Republicans are apprehensive.
Privately the fear is expressed by the
highest Republican authorities that the
party is going to lose the state. One of
them. who has absolute knowledge of the
opinions of those in charge OF the organi-
cation, said:
eff the Democrats nominate a safe man
on a conservative platform they will sweep
the state by more than 10000.
He regarded Cleveland as the strongest
man the Democrats could nominate, but
added that German, Oney and Parker
were also in his mind when he spoke of

Democrats would produce a candidate aud

but the rise of the Parker tide he regarded
as dsqueting indication that they might

ARMENIAN POPE IS ONE OF
CARS GREATEST ENEMIES

MOSCOW. April I2.-Religion is great
part of Russian life. Religion is part of
the organization of the state and the ear
is the head of the church
In ancient times the head of the Russian
church was the bishop of Moscow, who
was called the patriarch of Russia. Peter
the Great abolished this office, created
three metropolitan bishops of equal rank
and made himself administrative head of
the church in place of the patriarch.
The present car inherits this position,
though the actual administration of the
Russian church is in the hands of Pobe-
donostsev, procurator of the holy synod.
A very large number of the people of
the Caucasus belonged TO the Armenian
church, which was founded in 45l A. D. on
the refusal of the Armenans to accept the
belief of the general body of Christians i'm
the dual nature Of Christ. Ever since
that time the Armenian church has kept
its Independence, having its own patriarch
or pope, residing at Constantinople. The
present Armenian pope is named Malachi,
and he has developed into one of the most
powerful enemies the car has today
The difficulties began several years ago
when Russia enuedNOfcu 10 persuade tdu-
casan Christians into becoming members
of the Russian orthodox church. They
were not very successful and in retaliation
the members of the Armenian church in
that part of the country endeavored to
obtain proseytes from the Russian camp
and, moreover, began to spend some Of the
church funds in liberal and revolutionary
propagandas.
The Armenian church owned $3j 900 900
worth of property in Russian territory,
and this property was administered by
Pope Malachi.
The climax was reached one day when
the ear by single ullase appropriated
the whole Of the Armenian church prop
erty in Russia and turned il over to Pobe-
donostsey for administration.
The immedite consequences were riots
and various disturbances. including an at
tempt to assassinate the governor Of the
Caucasus.
Since then Pope Malachi has been the
leader Of a sort OF ecclesiastical war against
the car in which. all the Armenian Chris
tians in Russia are the soldiers aud the
priests Of the Armenian church his lien
tenants. One act OF retaliation against
Pope Malachi has been strong represen-
tation to the sultan by the Russian min
lister in Constantinople urging that Pope
Malachi's privileges be curtailed, but His
