source it is claimed that Allison de-

his decision Ringing entirely OH the
condition of his health later when the

intimated previously that Congress-
man Smith, Of the Ninth, would be Il
candidate with others against Lacey,
but the intimation now is that next to
Allison the Blythe and standpat forces
are ready to unite for Lacey as their
candidate. Whether or not the fact
that Lacey is now out of political
job while Smith still holds office has
anything to do with the decision is not
known.
1t is recalled that in Washington
Lacey gave out an interview just fol-
lowing the election last November in
which he stated his determination to
become a candidate for the United
States senate. AS he did not specify
it was thought by some that he in
tended to make a fight against the

to be some ground for this conclusion
because of Lacey's radical anti-tariff.
