State League of Republican Clubs? Charleston, March 25. State Delegate Convention?Clarksburg, May 14. State Nominating Convention?Parkersburg. July 21 Hour* in m Xntlunal Convention. Hon. V. A. Taylor, of CJevoJand, speaKing or me si. i^ouis convcuwuii, says: the big political bosses do no better than they did at Minneapolis, they will not be in it for a minute. Tha^ was one of the most boyish exhibitions of political management I ever witnessed." Mr. Taylor states the fact accurately, and the inference he draws from it is fair. The "big political bossess," who are setting up stalking horses this year and entering themselves as "favorite sons." were confident that Harrison oould not be nominated because they were against him. They not only said so but they believed themselves. While they were prognosticating and pulling wires and defeating Harrison with their expert combination. Harrison went right on holding his strength and gathering force and was nominated on the first ballot. Those who understood the situation Know tnat mere waa no* & imimvm, from the time th?? delegate# beffan to arrive, when Harrison could be defeated. But the biff bouses In their wisdom could not take In the situation and oould not be made to understand it When a caucus of Harrison men was hold and showed the stren.-th to nominate. the biff bosses smiled too knowingly and said It was "a cold, clammy blufT." Common every-day Republicans need not be afraid of the biff bosjttft. Thej can't boss anythlnff outside of their own states, and some of them are kept busy enouffh dolnff that. The masses of the Republican party have jcot in the habit of havlnff Republican national conventions their way, not the way 6f the much-advertised bosses. The bosses are few and chiefly Interested in themselves. The Republican people are many and seek above all to do the riffht thinff. What they want done In the St. Louis convention will be done. If New York Is to furnish the DemoA cr&tlc martyr his name Is not to be David Bennet Hill, who has oth^r vimtra Mill'* p;i.mrmlcn onded when he saw which way the Democratic cat was Jumping. Went Virginia at Ht. f?onU. Discussing the play of the field afrolnst McKlnley the Chicago TimesHerald says: Primarily, beyond question Quay's appearance ax u favorite Hon, Ilk* that of Morton. In New York, was the result of the discovery by the allied bo?i"?9 that ther could not atein the McKlnley tide with either Heed or Allison. It who then agreed that the tamper of the country should be tried with favorite aona. beginning with Govornonr Morton, under ?hl* plan have arisen, with no smalt effort on tne purt of the bosses and their cm/>la*arloH. Cullom in Illinois, Bradley In Kentucky. ElkJns in West Virginia, Mnnderson In Nebraska, every one of these Htates belnp even more than New York and Pennsylvania strongholds of McKlnley sentiment. The Times-Herald will have to revise #its list. It must leave out the Went Virginia man nnd then It will be right Senator Klklns has not entered himself ' for the running. He has been talked of ;a good deal Iti connection with the nomination. bu^Jje Is not a candidate. Unless thf-ftlgn* are very misleading, West Virginia'* delegation will be for McKlnley, who of all the men In the field Is unquestionably the choice of an ' overwhelming majority of the Republl' cans of this state. West Virginia was not more Intensely for Maine In '84 than 'It Is for McKlnley In Why flora the board of normal school regent* have to go outside of West Virginia to fln<l an architect? We have some capable architects In the state. Isn't It well to keep the state's money at home? The .Morgan Ilnkf?OfT. The administration has written an' other chapter of bond history. That history wan already unsavory enough. It Is ranker now. There were those who said that the thing would he done that 'has been done, hut that prophecy so dlr'-ctly challenged either the good * faith or the Intelligence of the administration that It swmed a slander and a scandal, to bollevc the thing possible, Jlut the Impossible hiu* eome to.pass. The lapse* from the hond sale are to be gathered up and presented to Mr. 'Morgan. This son of fortune and favorite of the administration In to got : what In left for more than SI00,000 |??.ss than other persons are willing to pay. ?.Mr. Morgan t?"ta the bonds at J 10.68. . They are worth 116 In the market. When the difference Is applied to a face value [ of W.ftoo.oon or more It run* up Into respectable figure*. Th'* worrit ary of the treasury wili ' not obliged to deliver thene bond*. loft over by lapsed btda, to nny of the original blddein. He hail len^rved the rlRht to reject any or all bldn. Me ' could have offered Uie?t bond* airiUn i to the pubMc. He wu under no obligation to offer them again. They could have remained unissued. In that cane, however, Mr. Morgan could not have got them and would havo lost the opportunity to make a sum that would be a fortune for any ordinary man. There la ample reaaon for the Investigation which Senator HIJ1 shut off and whinh R#nntnr 1 jodcc haa undertaker to bring about. The people should know about these peculiar bond transactions from the beginning up to date It would be great relief to know that II they were stupid they were straight. In Kentuccky It Is thought that Secretary Carlisle wants the senatorshlr himself. In about a year he will have to leave his present place. Mr. Carlisle has found the senate a very comfortable abiding place. ]^>rtl flalUbary Anil Arbitration. It Is believed In London that Lord Salisbury would agree to arbitrate th? Venezuelan matter if there were a provision to secure to Great Britain thai part of the territory claimed by Venezuela on which British subjects have settled. Very likely. British subjects have settled fai west of the Essequlbo river, tho boundary claimed by Venezuela. Thej have taken In an immense scope ol territory. If possession of this must be confirmed to Great Britain before the arbitration begins, that proceeding could have little Interest for Venezuela or for the United States. Great Britain would have gained much be for* arbitration, and In that Bhe would havt all to gain, nothing to lose. It 1m as though Great Brttaln were tc fill up with her settlers the most desirable part of the Yukon country and then notify us that, barring the reglor settled by British subjects, she would agree to arbitrate a claim to the remainder of Alaska. British subject* who settled on territory not British have not acquired by that act the rlghl to have the British flag float over them They have only the rights of alien so of tlie state In whose dominions they art?. Thousands of still unnaturalized natives of Great Britain, subjects of the (jueen.have settled in the United States but It hAA not been urged that theli settlement makes British territory, Such a claim advanced as against th? United States would be too droll. Th< difference between the United Statei and Venezuela 1n such a matter Is merely a difference as to power to defend. This difference does not change th< location of a, true boundary line ami does not modify the legal or moral aspect of the case. If there Is to be arbitration. as there should be. Great Britain will have to agree to leave In th< case something to arbitrate. Surely there are some more "favorite sons." They should get out and get In it, or they may be overlooked. Onr Mlnlitfr to Hpulii. What Is all the row about betweer Mr. Hannis Taylor, our minister tc Spain, and the Spanish foreign office? The commander of one of the Columbus caravels that came over tc the World's Fair, read before a geographical society a paper In which h< critlces the United States. He did nol think very much of us. nur Minister Taylor protested and demanded an explanation. The carave man says hi* was Incorrectly quoted. Ii does not matter about the quoting. II doc? not matter what was in the papei read before the geographical society. What was said under the circumstance! can have no public Importance. Then was nothing In the. Incident to call foi a proteet and explanation. Mr. Taylor was probably spurred bj Mr. Bayard's case. Mr. Bayard wai Jumped on by bis countrymen for fouling his own nest In order to make hli British admirers admire him the more Mr. Taylor may have thought he would set the American eagle to flapping Its wings in an ecstacy of delight becaus< an American minister had throwr down a sort of "deft" to one of th< effete monarchies. Mr. Bayard at one extreme and Mr Taylor at the other remind us that th< best service our foreign ministers car render their country is to bear themselves with dignity and to stick close t< their official duties. We do not demanc of them any trapes performance 01 ground and lofty tumbling. All who know of Modjeska will regret to know that probably she has beer seen for the last time on the stage.

More Uw Against C'itnrcttra. The committee on education of the New Jersey legislature has taken favorable action on a bill to prohibit th* sale of cigarettes In that state. Ne* Jersey has a law forbidding the sale ol cigarettes to children, but the law is u failure. Complaints must bo marie bj parents or guardians, and the complaints are not made. Thn cigarettes habit is most pernicious, especially so In the case of children. It Is very desirable to brcui* It up, and It Is Just as difficult. 8( long as the demand exists It will b? supplied by hook or by crook. If parents can not keep their children fron smoking cigarettes or from any othei bad practice there Is little hope of tin law doing It. In such matters the rule of the homi ehotild l?p more powerful than the ruli *?f tho ntate; nnd ho It Ih In a well gov erned horn**.

HILL'S PERFORMANCE. An Attorney for the AilmliiMration II I)larrr?llM 111* CllriifN. New York World (Dcm.): Senate Hill yesterday sent the Peffer resolu tlon for an investigation of the bon sale business to the foot of the caleti dar. He did so "by trick and device," b dislngenuousness, by what they us?to call at Albany "peanut politics." It was only necessary for Mr. HI to consume the morning hour In tail and he consumed It. lie proteste against the ordering of an investigate I.. V. when two senators offered to mnk ' the definite chargcs which he pretende to want, he "refused to yield" an went on talking until the morning hou was exhausted. And his talk was thouroughly sophla ' tical and disingenuous He contemptu , ously ignored the country's complain . of Mr. Carlisle's bond dlckera. and char acterlzed It aw "Idle rumor." In It u "Idle rumor" that Mr. Carlisle, on th ? Rth of February. 1895. sold $62,315,000 r ? thirty-year 4 per cents to Mr. Morgan' syndicate at 104.49 when they wer worth In the open market 11R to 120? 1 It an "Idle rumor" that he thus dt prlved the public of a chance to bl for these bonds and turned over man millions of the governments' money t a syndicate composed of bin own an I Mr. Cleveland's Wall street friends? 1 it "Idle rumor" that he did this wlthl about two months after had ofllclall proclaimed his conviction, based upo an experiment, that the government' credit was ho good that a 2V4 per cer bond could be sold "at or above par?" * Is it "Idle rumor" that he met Mi Morgan in December last at Mr. La mont's house and held a conversatlo ' with him on the strength of which thn hard-headed tinancler came back t New York with the understanding thu he could have 1200.000,000 more of 4 p?' , cents for syndicate speculation, n about the same price paid eleve ' months before for the $62,300,000? These things are facts known of a . men. Unexplained theycoostitute a bill . terlng scandal hurtful to every Interej of the government and country, b* cause they leave doubta In men's mind ? of the Integrity of the administrate I itself. Is it not the highest duty r patriotism to insist upon such an in qulry Into thw "facts as clmiro I stances" shall lay bore the ultlmal I truth whatever it may be? In It nr . the* pinin duty of the administration. it Ik Innocent of wrong intent, to Invlt L sueh an inquiry in order that It ma explain Itn extraordinary performancf in such fashion as to leave room I honest minds for the, belief that It hn 1 not consciously and intentionally ler aid to schemes of treasury spoliation? In the course of his remarks Mr. HI referred contemptuously to the Invest nation ordered Into the charge that Her ' ators had speculated In sugar stock i pending legislation calculated to affe< the value of those stock*. It was u unfortunate reference and one whlc ' must have made some of his coadjutoi wince. For that Inquiry, despite a I the eare taken to avoid finding out tli truth, resulted In exposing dealings o the part of senators which were grossl * and grievously disgraceful. An i further. It reminds the people of th ? fact that Mr. Carlisle, the secretar who Is now asked to account for h! extraordinary bond dealings, Is th same Mr. Carlisle and the same secrr , tary of the treasury who suggested * scheme of duties favorable to the sugn 1 trust, and who afterwards furnish? the senate an excuse for not keepln > faith.with the house and the people o . the free Iron and free coal bills. As attorney for the administrate Mr. Hill has succeeded In postponln investigation only by discrediting hi client*. And the Investigation wl l come in spite of him. The people war to know nil about this bond business and they will not rest content till the r find out. PERSONAL POINTS.
