responsible. He wai unfortunate enough to be disliked by some of the most astute and powerful republican politicians; and their opposition would be the chief stumbling block in his way if he should have a desire to lodjre at the white house again. And why should he not have such a desire? If he wanted to be president in 1892 why should he not want to be president in 189G? He is in the soundest of health, the best of spirits, and the prime ol his intellect; and he is reeorameaded in a warmer way than has been habitual with him by his new triumph. The Indiana repub Means, with the unresting John New at their head, are eager to push him on and intrigue for him ; he has influential friends in almost every state; and most of the gentlemen who haye the happiness of being appointed to the office by him would gladly take up the cudgels for him again. In the matter of geographical diffuaion his support is well distributed, and even the elusive southern delegate might be attracted to him. The Hon. Charles Foster, the Hon. Thomas W. Palmer, the premature Michener, and other states men who are either eager to break into speech or committed to some other candidate than Gen. Harrison, evidently do not speak by the book when they try to persuade the country that he doesn’t want to be nominated. The inner circle of Harrisonians seem not lobe of that opinion; and the expression of it annoys them. A waiting and a quiet game is theirs. There stands their candidate in an impressive Pullman car platform attitude, but making no speeches. Everybody is looking at him with a kindly eye, almost forgetting the politician in the lover. If the other candidates are too evenly matched, or the fight amorg them gets too vivid, Indiana stands ready to settle the trouble by bringing forward this dignified and now interesting personage. In the language of the noble game of marbles, no shoviugs! It will not do for Gen Harrison to be in the scramble, but his friends may be justified in thinking that he is in

THE HAPPY HOOSIEH. New York Sun. There has not been any doubt at any time since Gen. Harrison’s defeat in 1892 that he was liable to become in 1896, if he chose, a candidate dangerous to the peace of mind of other aspirants. There was nothing in that defeat that could bring any personal humiliation to him or give him any caus'* of reproach. Never a mail to excite violent enthusiasms, he had proven himself to be a president who could win the confidence of the mass of bis party, ai d but for the unexpected disaster which overtook t hat party he could not justly be held

FILBECK CHOSEN. |

Washington, Jan. 20, 1898. Senator Davis, of Minnesota, has received many congratulations for the vigorous Americanism which stands up in every line of the Monroe doctrine resolution which has been reported to the Senate from the committee on foreign relations. The resolution was written by Senator Davis, lie having been appointed a sub-committee ot one to perform that duly, and the resolution itself furnishes the best evidence that the task could not have been put in better hands. There are a few timid men in congress, mostly democrats, who are a little bit afraid that the resolution goes too far, especially that portion of it which declares the United States to lie the sole judge when it comes to determining the question of infringement of the Monroe doctrine but congress is practically unanimously in favor of the assertions contained in the resolution, and there is no doubt tnat the resolution will he adopted by both Senata and House, and that even the timid individuals referred to will record their votes in its favor when put to the test. There is practically no change as to the status of the House tariff bill which is tied up .n the Senate finance committee. Some thing may develop at this week's regular meeting of the committee that will result in getting the bill reported to the Senate in some shape, although there is nothing certain

about it.

Kumors of an intended special Cuban message from Mr. Cleveland to congress have been floating around far several days, but no defluite information on the subject can be obtained either at the white house or the State department. Meanwhile there is considerable adverse comment heard upon the slownesa of Secretary Olney in furnishing the Cuban information called for by a resolution adopted by the house several weeks ago. It is not at all evident what he is waiting for, except to delay favorable action of congress towards the Cubans, which might follow his answer Ex-Secretary Noble, of President Harrison’s cabinet, who is in Washington in connection with the commission charged with selecting the site and design for the Sherman equestrian statue that is to be erected, has been pumped ; energetically by the newspaper men for

A Vigo County Man Named for J>l«t*ict Coin mitteeman. The Fifth District Republican convention was called to order today at Torre Haute at eleven o’clock a. in. All the counties in the district were represented by large and enthusiastic delegations. The convention met at the court Inuse and Judge J. V. Hadley, of Danville, was made permanent chairman with George M. Allen, •ecretary and all the republican editors of the district present assistant secretaries. Vice chairman were named from all the counties, James T. Denny’s name being presented from Putnam. The com mittee on organization was represented for Putnam by Jesse W. Weik, and S. A. Hays was made a member of the committeeen resotione. There wag but one name presented to the convention for chairman of the district, and that was Nicholas Filbeck, of Terre Haute. Mr. Filbeck was unanimously chosen. The district convention for the naming of delegates to the National republican convention will probably be held in Greencastle.

Suditcn D-atb. Samuel H. Hillie, one of the city’s best known citizens, died suddenly this morning about 8:45 o’clock at his residence, 8:19 east Seminary street, Mr. Hillis hadn’t been in robust health for a year or so but was able to be about and was feel ing quite well this morning. He ate a hearty breakfast and was passing from the ball of his residence to the library when he suddenly fell over. His family rushed to his aid but life was extinct before they reached him. Dr. Smythe was hurriedly summoned and stated the cause of death was apoplexy. Mr. Hillis was feeling unusually well this morning and had expressed a desire to visit the new building of the Greencastle JIanu facturing company in South Greencastle and was preparing to go there. Mr. Hillis' relatives were notified

Senator Butler, of North Uarnlina, has lost the benefit of the good impression his appearance made w hen he entered the senate. The reason is the same that has killed so many other promising men in both branches of congress—he talks when be has nothing to say, just for the pleasure of bearing his

own voice.

Democrats openly acknowledge that their committee broke the old custom of the party in power holding its national convention tirst solely with the hope that the republicans will make some mistake in their candidate or platform which the democrats by bold-i their convention several weeks later | will be able to profit by. This merely I shows the desperate straits to which the poor old Cleveland-ridden demo-1 cratic party is reduced. Within less than six months of the holding of their national convention they have no idea what they intend doing, further than to take advantage of any loophole that may be left by the republican platform, to put forward some sort of a plea that may bamboozle the voters. But the impression is widely abroad that the bamboozling of voters by a democratic platform will never again be successful. It was done once too often. This bit of cowardice is strikingly characteristic oft lie democratic oarty as well as in striking contrast with the record of the republican party under similar circumstances. During its long control of the government the republican party never failed once to hold it* national convention tirst. But, the republican party has always known where it,stool upon every great question, and has never attempted t<> straddle questions or to make platforms which may he construed to mean anything or nothing according to the construer. Which makes quite a

difference.
