Ideal Man for President.

Judge Parker Is an ideal man for the
nomination and will make an ideal Presi-
dent" said Mr.. Gaines He Is a great
big man. strong, sturdy, sane, hard
headed, Democrat. OF the Jefferson and
Andrew jackson type. He will not discuss
rpolit!cs now, but Just as soon as he Is
nominated. the American people will hear
from him. and they will hear that which
will convince them that they have a
chance to return to the old fashioned
Democracy of the fathers BY voting for
Judge Parker to succeed Colonel Roose-
Welt
Mr.. Gaines lunched with Judge Parker
at his home at Esopus. The judge had
to leave the table seven times during the
progress Of the meal in order TO answer
calls on the telephone. One OF the phone
messages brought him the news Of the
killing OF a little child by a horse which
the judge had recently bought In Albany.
and which had not yet been brought to
Esopus. The shock of the news was so
great that the judge was nearly pros

Good Chance to Win.

Mr.. Gaines Is one OF those democrats
who think there Is an excellent chance
for the party to elect Democrat to the
presidency this fall. In passing, 1t may
be said that there are many Democrats
OF this kind Three months ago there
could not be found Democrat who
thought there was the slightest posi-
bllity of defeating Roosevelt at the polls.
But now there are plenty of men who
admit that the election of Mr.. Roosevelt
is not going To be accomplished without
the hardest kind OF work, and some bold
Is proclaim the belief that he VIII not
be elected at all, and that Judge Parker
will be the President OF the United
States after the 4tb of next March.
There is not believed to be one chance
in ten that New York can be carried for
Roosevelt The Democrats never think
OF putting that State in any other column
than their own. Unless the utterly I'M
foreseen occurs, Judge Parker will be
given the thirty-nne electoral votes OF
Now York By majority which some
polticians think will reach one hundred
thousand.
Counts on Indiana.
General Robert w. Micrs, OF Indiana,
one OF the leading Democrats in the
House, calm and eminently conservH-
tive man, and shrewd politician withal.
said to-day that he believed Indiana
was as safely Democratic as New York,
and that there was little doubt IN his
mind that II the Democrats nominated
Judge Parker on a conservative platform,
tho fifteen electoral votes of Indiana
would go to the Democratic nominee
A gentleman who is very close to Mr..
Hearst, and has done much work to
secure him the nomination, said last
night that his chief had now no idea OF
getting the nomination.. He further said
that Mr.. Hearst had said that all this
talk about his boiling the ticket IL he
were not nominated himself. or II Mr.
Bryan were not nominated. was ridicu.
lous. that IL the Democrats nominated
ANY kind Of man on any kind of
platform" he would support him: that
his five papers would support him. and
that he would contribute as much to the
fund as any other individual.
