CLARKSON'S IDEAS.
The Republican Candidate Must
be a Vote-Getter.
ASHEVILLE, N, March 15.
Hon. J. S. Clarkson, chairman of
the Eepublican National Commit
tee, who came to Asheville four
weeks ago to try and arrest a siege
of inflammatory lheumatism, came
too late and has had a severe and
and painful attack of it. Mrs.
Clarkson and a portion o his
family are with him, and they
hope to be able to start on Satui
day in a special car for Hot
Springs, Ark.
Chairman Clarkson to-day
briefly discussed the Republican
political situation in a talk with a
representative of the press.
"Who is your preference for the
Republican nomination for presi-
dent?" was asked.
"I have not taken sides in the
matter," he said, "and as chair
man of the national committee I
could not properly do so. I can
only say that I hope the party will
exercise abundant caution and
deliberation in its choice, for it
will give itself victory or defeat in
making the nomination. W need
a man who will heal all Republi
can divisions everywhere, who will
poll the full party vote and draw
most strongly on the million first
voters this year, and most heavily
draw from the Democrats in New
York and the Northern States
men already half way in favor of
Republicanism by being in favor
of reciprocity."
"How can that man be found?"
"Find a man most sure to heal
and unite and inspire the party in
New York, Indiana, Wisconsin,
and other doubtful States, and the
man who wsll 4vsm enough Repub
lican soldiers and enough Repub
lican farmers back from the Al
liance to make Nebraska, Kansas,
Iowa, Minnesota, and Wisconsin
surely Republican, and you have
found the man. In such a situa
tion the view of Republicans of
such doubtful, yet necessary, States
ought to be deferred to very
largely."
"Do you think there will be
several candidates balloted for?"
"It looks so. Alger, Cullom,
and Blair are proclaimed candi
dates, and Manderson is likely to
be. Tnere is a strong undertone
or popular movement toward
Uncle Jerry Rusk, and one of
gathering power for Gov. McKin-
ley."
"Isn't it too early for McKinle},
so soon after the passage of his
bill?"
"No there is nothing in that.
The Republican party is responsi
ble for the bill, and the author
would only add honor to it. Mc
Kinley is one of half a dozen men
given to the nation in a centuiy.
He is strong and splendid in e\ erj
thing that Americans most admire,
and he will be president some daj^.
Uncle Jerry Rusk, in whose life
there has been much th*it touches
with sympathy millions of Ameri
can homes that aie acquainted
with struggles and hardships,
would make a strong and popular
candidate."
"But," said Mr. Clarkson, "the
party will do the right thing at
Minneapolis. Blaine could be
nominated and could be elected
beyond all doubt if he would take
it, and he is our only sure winner."
"President Harrison has added
to the glory of the country and the
party both. He has grown stead
ily in public estimation, and in the
last year rapidly in party estima
tion. It is not unlikely that he
may be chosen again. If the party
is left free to make up its mind
and no effort is made which will
change the dignity of his position
or put him in the light of scram-

NUMBER 15.
bling for a renomination, the final
judgment at Minneapolis is most^
likely to be his favor, but he is
showing his own breadth of politi
cal wisdom in holding that the
party should meantime review the
field completely, discuss all avail
able men frankly, and then decide
with something like unanimity of
party opinion and desire. Such a
choice would mean the election of
the candidate selected, Harrison or
whoever it should be."
Mr. Clarkson was asked if the
repoit that he is a candidate for
the presidency was true. He re
plied:
""Of course, there is no founda
tion whatever for such a report.
My answer to all inquiries and
kindly proffers of help on this
subject has been constantly 'No.'
I have never heard that bee sing,
and its music is not enchanting to
me. Besides," added Mr. Clark
son, I am not wanted for the
place, and I have sense enough to
know it. Of course, I am grateful
to the good friends in the various
States who have thought other
wise, but this is the truth.
Hon. Wm. E. Lee for Lieut. Gov.
While it is a little early to make
many calculations about the next
Republican State ticket, it is cer
tainly proper that this section of
the State should unite in a move
ment to secure some representa
tive on the State ticket. We be
lieve that by continued effort the
Republicans of this part of the
State could secuie the nomination
of Hon. Wm. E. Lee, of Todd
county, for lieutenant governor,
and such a nomination would add
strength to any ticket that could
be named. Mr. Lee has in vari
ous positions shown every neces
sary attribute to qualify him for
the position, and as a citizen and
Republican deserves high honors
from the people and party. His
name is not a new one in State
politics, and to the solid delega
tions from this A icinity would be
added friends fiom every part
of the State, and his nomination
would be desein ed and wise. His
views in this matter are not now
considered, but from e^ ery stand
point it would be desirable that a
determined effort be made to se
cure him the nomination.
Alwaj an active and influential
woikei for his party, throughly
qualified for this important posi
tion, and possessing many ele
ments of strength particularly
valuable in Republican candidates
this ear, Wm. E Lee, of Todd
count}, is presented as a suitable
nominee for lieutenant governor
OJ the Republican State ticket.
Little Falls Transcript.
Democratic Trickerj.
The telegraphic announcement
that after protracted incubation
the Demociatic legislature of Mis
souri has finally agreed upon a bill
of apportionment which will gh
its party fourteen out of the fifteen
members of congress in a State
which casts 236,000 Republican
votes as against 261,000 Demo
cratic votes, in connection with
similar partisan work going on
elsewhere, is directing public at
tention with renewed interest to
the modern and dangerous art of
political gerrymandering.
It is a trick by which minorities
and not majorities are enabled to
rule. And on the other hand it is
the adroit and efficacious means by
which the voice of minorities is in
most cases suppressed. Naturally
enough it oiiginated in the fertile
brain of a Jeffersonian Democrat,
Mr. Eldbridge Gerrv, of Massa
chusctts, from which it takes its S
name, nearly eighty ears ago. If 3
the defunqt Massachusetts states- *1
man could see how his sharp *$
scheme had been developed and
utilized by dishonest successors in
all quarters of the country, he
would turn over in his grave for
very wondei.
