presidential nomination in 1898. Mr.. Fair
banks is a silent. persistent, painstak-
ing worker.
He has had the presidential bee in his
bonnet for many years lie was great
favorite OF President Mckinley, and many
persons believe that Mr.. Mckinley de-
sired 10 see Mr. Fairbanks succeed him
in the presidential chair.
Last week there was a notable gather
ing OF Indiana politicians in Washington,
all OF them workers for the Fairbanks
machine It was announced that the
visitors had come here 10 attend the din
ner OF Senator Memenway given In honor
OF the vice president and the Indiana
delegation In congress.
There wero long conferences between
these visiting politicians and Mr.. Fair
banks and his friends and there Is good
reason TO believe that a good deal was
done In the way OF perfecting the organ
iZation formed for the purpose OF secur-
ing the Republican nomination for In
dianas son two years hence.
Everything is lovely for Mr.. Fairbanks
in Indiana. He has Just cleaned up the
opposing faction I'm the Republican party
there headed by the youthful Senator
Beveridge, who ~ understood TO have so
responded to the treatment applied 10 him
that ne now gives three cheers every time
the name OF Fairbanks II mentioned In
his presence Senator Beveridge Is no
longer In a position TO hamper the prog
ress OF the Fairbanks boom I'm Indiana
In rhe factional fight over the state chair
manship Mr.. Beveridge suffered an igno-
miniohs rout, and II he does not train
with Mr.. Fairbanks I'm the future he will
not actively oppose him.
The vice president is certain OF In
dlanas 30 delegates. and he is counting
upon Illinois. His fortunes i'm that state
are in the hands of Charles G.. Dawes,
former comptroller OF the currency. Fair
banks has strong and influential friends
in Illinois, and his chances OF securing
the delegation from that state are prob
ably better than those OF any other man.
Ohio has two favorite sons, in the per-
sons OF Mr. Taft and Senator Foraker.
Both are very strong In Ohio and both
are widely and favorably known through
out the country.

His family are insisting that he remain
in Florida until he Is completely re-
stored TO health. Senator Cullom feels
that his presence in Washington is par
teularly desirable now, on account OF the
important matters affecting our foreign
relations that are coming up almost daily
for consideration IN one form or another,
as he is chairman OF the foreign relations
committee. Senator Culom is a candi-
date for reelection TO the senate and ex-
Gov. Yates is stumping Illinois in oppo-

This, IL is admitted by the Standard.
the Morning Post and other Unionlst
newspapers, will be the only course open
10 Mr. Chamberlain unless indeed Mr
Balfour decides to call a meeting OF the
party and allow It's members to decide
the question OF leadership.
The whole situation forms the political
sensation OF the hour. and nothing else
isdiscussed i'm the political clubs. II was
stated very emphatically yesterday that
n Mr. Balfour would not agree 10 call
n meeting Of the party. former Secretary
OF state for Home Affairs Akers- Doug
las would be appointed leader ad interim
until Mr.. Balfour is returned 10 parlia-
ment by the city OF London
There Is still a remote chance OF Walter
Hume Long, former president OF the
local government board. being asked to
accept the leadership under compro-
mise, but well-informed persons say posi-
lively that Mr. Baltour will refuse any
thing like a compromise. while Mr. Cham
berlain insists on standing for protec-
tion.
II is even intimated that the Invitation
to Mr. Balfour TO stand for the seat for
the city OF London. resigned in his favor
by Alban @. II Gibbs. may be with
drawn unless ne goes over TO Mr.. Cham
berlaln. but this is believed 90 be hardly
