And Tells Why He Should Not Be Rlected. Washington, D. C., June 11. President Cleveland bas at last shown interest in coming events at St. Louis. Congreseraan Seth L. Millikin of Maine called on Cleveland early this | week, and the talk turned on nation-| al politics. “You republicans ought to nomi-| nate Reed,” said the president. | “He is by far the brainiest man in| in the party, likewise the bravest. If a republican is to be elected, he should not only be a brainy man, but a brave one, to come in here for | the next four years. This man McKinley from what I! hear, seems to mortgaged That would be a bad condition in which to enter this place at this time, or any other time.” Congressman Milliken was much pleased with the democratic tribute to Tom Reed's ability and courage, and cites it as demoeratic commend- ation and vindication of Reed's course as speaker in the fifty-first congress. “Reed will not take second place with MeKinley,” said Milliken. “How could a big, brainy man, like|sion of candidates would be prema-| pleased over the result as the Popu- Reed, play secend fiddle to a man of McKinley's caliber?

The filled cheese bill has been passed by both houses of Congress by majorities which indieate that a presidential veto would not prevent its becoming a Jaw. The measure which is analogous to the oleomar- garine law, defines filled cheese to embrace “all substances made of milk, or skimmed milk with the ad- mixture of butter, animal oils c’ fat, vegetable or other oils, compounds foreign to such milk and made in imitation or semblance of cheese ” Manufacturers of filled cheese are taken annually wholesale dealers $250, retail dealers $12. In addition to these taxes the product itself is taxed one cent per pound, and im- ported filled cheese is taxed eight cents per pound in addition to the import duty. It is provided that filled cheese shall be packed by the manufactures, in wooden packages only, and branded with the words “filled cheese” in black faced letters not less than two inches in length. It also provides that all retail and The Post-Dispatch is heartily aud unreservedly for the candidate, whom Missouri has offered to the, |longer a doubt anywhere that the free coinage element will have easy | contro! of the Chicago Conventien. | It as astonishing, too, the number of serious statesmen of all parties | who believe that the nominee of the Chicago convention of the United States is he is placed on a free cein- age platform Two months ago nearly every- body in Washington was inclined to 1894, when the free gold in the Treasury was $61,878,374, the amount varied but little.

Now there is al- mostan entire change of epinion and belief. The Republican Sena- tors are rattled beyond a doubt. They anticipate a silver landslide and the phrase now is frequently heard that ‘the yaller dog could be elected” if nominated at Chicago. This was the illustration that has been in use by the Republicans re- garding their own convention, and and their own chances for more than @ year. 8 Silvers Great Lead. Washington, D. C., June 10.—It is claimed now that it will not be necessary to abolish the two thirds rule in the National Demoeratic Con- vention in order to nominate a free silver man—that free silver will dom. inate by a two-thirds majority.

Havana, June 10.—Sunday even ing United States Consul Leo visited the Cubanas Fortress and saw Julio Sanguilly and the prisoners taken on board the schooner Competitor. He found them shut up in a dungeon with negro prisoners. Alfredo La- borde, who is said to have been the leader of the Competitor expedition, and who is an American citizen, was found to be very sick. Gen. Lee informed Capt.-Gen. Weyler of the sickness of the pris- oners. Weyler promised that they should be placed in a better situa-| tion and should be changed immedi- ately to a room separated from other prisoners. Gens.

The third plank proposes to en graft the strawberry upon the wilk weed so that the people can have strawberries and milk without pay- ing tribute to the monopolistic cow. These planks are so seductive that everybody is expected to flop over to the third party, just like a fel- lew’s best girl plants herself upon his manly bosom when he pops the all important question. At least these propositions are not a bit more at variance with the prin. ciples of governmental science than the sub-treasury plan, tne fiat money idea, and most of the other “princi- ples” the populists have hitherto invented. discovered, and nursed through several sickly campaigns.— h may depen the drugs you use. m moving—nothing n we maintain forgre- prescription work in.
