IIo talks like a disappointed politician
who Is drifting from post to pillar to find
n good spot on which to pitch his political
tent If ho has any specific charges
against tho present State administration
let hlra announce them clearly and then
it will lie tlmo enough for the friends of
tha administration to answer them in

Tho exgovernor modestly no modestly
as ho could unfolds an ambition to rep-
resent tho Trinity river in congress but
it is inspected that the gubernatorial
chair Is the real goal of his ambition
Ho wants to bo forced In this latter
direction Ue wants the call to coino as
the call for a forlorn hope from all the
eorehendg and discontented jiolitical cle
mento of the State Ho wants tho great
mongrel hosts of disappointment to single

PARTY PROSPECTS
Washington January 12 Oliroln
Mooro lu tho ItepublleJChttuncey M
Uopow Is quoted as having said n few
da > s tilticn that three months ago the
lepubllcans had an npparoul walkover
In tho campilngn of IS but now that
the chances wore even between tho two
great parties with democratic hopes well
In the ascendant Mr Uepew Is a very
nslute politician and this was a remark-
able confession for him to mako What
Is inoru astonishing perhaps is that his
opinion Is borne out by the most thought-
ful and conservative membora of his party
hereWhen
When tho riftythird congress ad
journed on the ith of March M tin re
was not a republican In Washington who
was not willing to bet his last dollar that
tho republican victory In ISM would be
morn complete and far reaching than the
domocrntlo victory of ltt Tho rrsult of
ths elections last November enhanced
republican hopes and mado tho party
loadem mow arrogant and urbltrary
They easily convinced themselves that tho
democratic party was ho > olc8dy divided
and that any man tho republicans chose
to nominate for the presidency would bo
nlocted almost without it struggle Con
dltlorui havo changed It has been dem
onstrnted hero thit tho republican purty
Is moio hopoIosKly divided than tho dem-
ocratic party while tho rival ambitions
of republican lerulem make it well nigh
tinposslblo for anything like harmony to
be established In tho party
Much democrats dlsensloivs as are ap-
parent here are not deep and profound
and eore Thero Is eonsldernbln dlssatls
faction on tlm part of the rank nnd lie
of tho democrats with tho administra-
tions but tills dlanffectlon la caused by
disapproval of the K > llcy of tho ailmln
iMratluu rather than of any principle
Working democrats aro sore over a good
many little things They differ with tho
administration on some big tnlrgs but
tho difference Is by no means trrcton
< liable Thero Is belter feeling lioro now
betwien tho sound money and free < on
ago democrats than I have seen before
for fho jeors Tho freo colnago men are
not ns lielllco as they were nor mo
Dm mum money mm so arrogant nnd
piesumptuous Thero Is n disposition to
glvo and take and get together it h al-
ready conceded that the National plit
form will demand bimetallic sound money
There ae mom democrats growling at
Cleveland because of Ills civil service re
form theories than because of his repntoil
lovu anil veneration for tho gold standard
At any rato tho presidents Monroo doe
trine message sent a thrill of life through
tho pnrty nnd convinced the republicans
that reliance on dcnieerntln feebleness or
dlsnffertloii might caiwo them fomo dis
disappointment
The reception by the country of the
presidents nafflnnntt in of the Monrie
doctrine proved conclusively that nu in
ternntlnnal question would completely
overshadow and mlnlmlro even tho most
absorbing dimestlc question When Mr
Cleveland laid hla tlrni hand on the tall
of the Ilrltlsh lion freo colnngo was for-
gotten civil service reform was n > glaoted
disappointments were lost sight of and
every democrat wns ready t shout for
the president and buck him up to the
bitter end Tho nvldenco of republican
rtls enslons has acted like a tonic on the
democrat When Teller nnd John Hher
man begin to battle contending demo-
crats are very apt to deelnre a tiuoe and
watch the lepublleiui engagement Tho
friends of H d McKlnley Morton and
Allison aro engaged In throntsllttlng
oporallo is Just at present The freo coin-
age republicans of the West havo formally
parted company with the protection ro
puhllcans of the Rust
The sllvei fight Is much moro Intnnse In
the republican thnn In tho democratic
pnrty Thn reason of this Is that there
are no bulllonalre democrats in eongreiet
All the rtprrsciitiitlvp of the stiver mine
owner sim republicans The democrats
of the South who adhere most stiotgly
to free olnage do so on principle The
Westin republican advocates of free
coinage are prompted largely by liuslnes

that there Is mors discontent disagree
mint nnd Insidious quatiellng now going

democrats I ntn convinced too that It
Is mm h easier to completely harmonise
Hie democrats than to iwrtlnll harmonlre

I hail a conversation last nbrht with a
friend of mine from New York who Is
the editor of one of the most influential
republican ilelly papers In the Interior of
New York State Ho told mo that he u
satisfied tint Kiine of the republican leal
cm wore now engaged In a deepernte dis-
reputable and destructive game of politics
Ho referred partlculirly to Mortonj cam-
paign for the presidency It is well under-
stood In tho Inner circle of tlio New Voik
npubllcnn machine that Tlatt and those
who am acting with him have no Inteotlon
to permit Mortons nomine tlon Mr Mor-

To control the treasury depirtment Is

Them Is no doubt entertained by well
Itifi rmi 1 polltlilnn hero that llatt has
been promised tho treasury portfolio In
the event of Heed being elected president
Governor Morton Is very popular in tlio
Interior of Now York Bute Ho has al-
ways been a civil modest approachable
easygoing man who hae liberally con-
tributed to rampolgn funds whether he
has Iieen a candidate himself or not His
popularity has Increased during tvls goVt > r

Mr Morton of coursa pretends that ho
wodld Imi a real president If ho should
bo chosen to that great office In tho
ewsy nlmost Inconscqutntlal office of
vice president he was never more than
a flguro head During tho four years that
he preHlded over tho senate ho was never
able to learn how to put a simple mo-
tion to adjourn properly When he was
called upon lu decide n point of order
It was necessary for him to get some-
body to write it for him or to vacate tho
chair and throw tho responsibility on

Morton Is rt rich man and has always
been able to hire capable men to do things

THE McKINLEYS
Columbus Ohio January 13 IS1
I am not permitting anything of that
kind to Intcrfero with my happiness or
my sleep Dont you know that It does not
mako so much difference where a mnn
Is as what he Is It depends a great deal
upon what is Inside a mans breast
whether ho Is happy either in public life
or In private life
So riwko Govirnor McKlnley when It
wns suggested to him that thousands of
people do not bcllovo his retirement to
prlvato life when General Asa S Hush
led is Inaugurated to succeed him a the
exeouUvo of Ohio will be for a very long
I erlod
That letter of General Sherman toilce
retary Walno tho governor continued
In which he contrasts the sweetness of
his own homo to anything that is outsldo
of It Is to my mind tho truo conception
of what Is the wiseit and best way of
looking at tho future
I am afraid my husband looks upon a
return to homo working with moro plea
lire than even I do said Mrs McKlnley
during tho governors absence lie does
not seom to think I am strong enough lo
take 11 very activo part In housekeeping
though I am better now than I have been
for twenty years I guess
I have been perfectly happy with our
life here You we wo havo our own si Ho-
of room They overlook the Slato house
vsril I can stand at the window and
watch him as ho goee to his office and
as soon as ho creisaee tho street h always
turns round to tnko off his hat to une
and then I can watch him return nt noon
nnd evening
Ilfiddes I think for an Invalid I havo
olv ed the whole prohleen of housekeeping
here In the most satisfactory manner I
know All our meat oro brought up to us
here nnd we can hivo whom wo want to
dinner or need havo no one Then nil the
linen all the tableware nnd overs thing of
that kind Is kept especially for our own
use so tht I nm sure it could not be
nicer at home Of courfe If my husband
thought 1 wi well enough io tnko caro
of tho bou o myself I would love to do It
but as Im doesnt I do not fen how any-
thing could bo bettor thnn this
When Mrs McKlnley wrus asked If It
wn not true ns a rulo thnt tho wives of
public men found less fascination in pul >
llc llfo titan their husbands sho replied
I think with mm > women It Is true
Public life In Amerlea Is a most oxpoTstve
Pastime With my husband I am sure
It has been 1 constant outlay which thn
salory of a member of congress nt JW
or a governor of Ohio at XWO In never
adequately supplies Why any man wants
tnich positions I am sure Is more than I
can see Just thlrk of It for Instance
that n State of tho Importance nnd wealth
of Ohio ha not an executive mansion
and It governor I cpeetcd to entertain
u he must on a silnry of 1000 per annum
I cm eiy these thing now for I am soon
to leivo her but the legislature oimht to
provide tlie governor with a house sultahlo
tei the position Dont vou think so
Have jou become Inured to hotel live
then so you prefer It to hoii ekepliig
Oh no but Mr McKlnley doe nt think
I ought to do much when I nm In my
house that I nil I have hnd a good deed
of hotel life though In Washington we
lived at the Hhhltt for many yeirs Of
oilrse that was In President Hayes term
of otnoe and the president and Mr Me
KPiley were always great friends ho that
we olnavs went to the White Houio for
our Sunday dinner nnd when tho presi-
dent and Mrs Hayes wcro lnvltod some
v here out of town for a week or so they
nuked Mr McKlnley and myseir to como
up there nnd keep hoiuo for them Wo
had the place all to ourselves for ten davs
or so and l had all of the White IIou o
then I ever cared for We hnd tho com-
ports nnd nono of thn discomforts nnd I
think that was moro than nlmost anyone
elso has ever found there
No I think Mr McKlnioy his earned a
rest nnd If I had my way I would carry
lilm off for n year abroad baforw h did
anything at all ugaln Wo havo frltnds
In the Itermudns who aro nnxjous to have
us come there t o but Mr McKlnley Is
not fond of sea voyages so wo will go
bark to Canton whero I hope he will bo
abln to get tho rest ho needs
I have accepted an invitation to attend
a soctil engagement In Cincinnati on
Thursdiy raid tho governor upon hi re-
turn and I suppose that will really Im
our last das In Columbus Our return to
Canton I going to lie very plcnsint I
think because for one thing wn nie going
lmrk to our little lvome whom wn both
began our married life and where we will
Im able In a qulit way soon to celebate
our twntvtlfth mulleraary 1 shall be
glad of tlie rest and I nm looking forwird
with considerable pleasure to getting
I mi k lo the ltttlo home vvhli h is now
about ready for us nnd very pleasant
It will lie I sin sure
Do you expect to bo able to secure any
rest nt home with tho National campaign
so near
I nm going homo without a secietnry
or even a stenographer Mr Hoyle my
ieeretnry leoves for the south net week
and imvo no need of any other There
Iki licvn talk In the Cleveland papeis
about the Ohio delegates to St Louis
but I hivo not oven considered thn mut-
ter of the dolecatloti and have not lifted
my llltle linger to Influence the srleclion
of onjone All the complimentary things
tlmt Juive lieen said of mo by my friends
come In prlvato letters nnd when these
aio answered as nil my letters nre I
go Into private life glad to know I am
getting nenier to what Mr Lincoln was
pleased to ell the common people and
nm not bothering myself nbout nn thing
else
1 hnvo accepted an Invitation to dellvor
an address beroro tho Hamilton club In
Chicago February 15 nnd that is the only
engagement I now recall Unit will take
me away from homo thl winter
Governor McKlnley wlU be 53 years 010
on January next He I renping tho
benefits or his mint exemplnry life how-
ever and though the work that his many
siicciMklvn olltlcal campaign have en-
tailed ujHin him has been sufficient to
destroy nn ordinary constitution he is
still strong reboot and hearty as an oral
nary man of 41
Mrs McKlnley has been something ot
an Invalid for many years Her fuce tells
tho story of her patience under this affile
lion which has been so heroically home
by herself and so nobly assisted by her
husband She int beforu 11 little table
on which was a vase of cnrnatlons and
the frailest of them seemed ns strong
the face that sat near them as though
tlvv had fouid n tender chord of sym-
pathy and recognized tho ephemeral side
of life which reflected all that wns most
beautiful In tin lr respective spheres
