THE OMAHA DaAIiLy BEE. YE HAD 100 MUCH HARD MUSCLE. Towa University Boys Too B'g and Strong for the Nekraska Team, VERY ERETTY BUT ONE SIDED GAME allant Fight Made by the Eleven from Lincoln Against Odds They Could Not Overcome-—Des feat Not Disgrace. ,1CTORY perches upon the banvers of Towa. There was ably a crowd of 2, people, and & bril liant nd enthus. iastic crowd too, prob- 500 it was bled at th rk yester- day to witness the great in- terstate foot bull match, between the teams of tho Iowa and Nebraska universities, The day was an 1deal being neither too warm nor too ¢ that even temperature best successful play. The sky w a film of leaden clouds, rendering the light of that mellow character best suited for the isual organs when put to a prolonged and cro strain, At as carly an hour as haif-past 2 tho grounds were fairly swarming with the ex- cited followers of the two t at tho commencement of hostilities the scene was a picturesque ono indecd. Lining the west limit line was phalanx after phalanx of men and boys, while in the rear of theso was an occan of veniclos, from the cumbersomo tally-ho dowa to the tundem dog cart, filled with fair women and brave men, ull be decked in gay colors, which lent much lignt and t'me to what might otherwise ave been considered a very somber Rom- branat. Those that were fearful of the cffects of the November aw had their uneasiness quickly dissipated after the ball was once put into play, and the muscle and brawn of the two rival states wero inactive conft Tho quick shifting of the situation, the rush and whrl and the general hurly-burly of the bat- tle, as one side or the other advanced or fell back, keep all the senses alert and the blood bounding through one's veirs in_ such tor- rents as to precludo ail thoughts of frigidity or discomfort. Marred the Oc One drawback to the situation was that both colleges met flaunting the same colors — old gold—making 1t an impossibility, so far as tho crowd went, to distinguish friend from foe. Again, it is but just to chronicle that the arrangements made for the egame yesterday, lov the blame fall on whomsoever it may, were about the shabbiest and most inadequuto that could possibly be couceive Even the lines of demarkation were only dimly slathered over the sere and yellow turf, and up to ten minutes beforo the game was called the goals had not been estanlished nor the poles up. Again, there were uo pro- visions made for keeping back the crowd, and as a result vbout half the game was a veritanle scramble between the crowd and tho players to determine who should have possession of the grounds. Of course this was a biz hindrance to anything like bril- liaut, work and a disappointment to that por- tion of the throng who were forced to mait tain their positions in the rear of the striv- ing masses, £ it was impossivle to securo suflicient, polico protection 10 worth of clothesline would have been smple to have preserved tho players' territory free from obstruction and interfercnce But as to the story of the game. Too Much P 1t was simply a case of b the big, strapping, athletic lowans speedily demonsirating their supremacy in all the de- tails that go toward furnishing a_close and stubborn contest, and it required no expert in tho intricacies of the play 1o see why the old wold ot lowa City flaunted proudly and trinmphantly o the autwinnal breczes, while the old gold of Lincoln was trailed and bedrabbled in tho dust. The Nebraskuns were overmatched and outplayed from the fiest shrick of Refereo Dave Holbrook's whistle until the meleo reached a termina- tion in the gathering shades of eventide, By all odas the bevter team carried off the Iaurels, but in asserting this no disparage ment is meant to the doughty Nebraska boys, for thoy made o heroic struggle, and had they not been 5o inestimably on’ the upper side of the scales, would certainly have pulled out a victory. In a thorough krowledgo of the game, and in finesso, craftiness and_ agility, thoy were the superi- ors of their antagonists, and only lowered their colors as an acknowledgment to over- whelming brate forco. S0 it will bo scen, notwithstanding their signal discomfiture, the Nebraska eleven nothing to be ashamed of. In Flippin, the coloved half back, the Lin- coln brigade has a player of whom any eleven may bo prond. A man of herculean mould, with muscles trained to the hardness of ivon, alevel head and a pair of legs on him that aro ns capavle of eovering eround with a speed that might be likened unto tho Ne- braska winds when out for a little blow over the measureiess praivie. But it is not to Flivpin alone to whom ali the_credit belogs for tho stabborn resistance Nebraska mude, for he had in Captain Jonnston, White, Pace and Audorson assistants that could not have been dispensed with, and Joues and Stockton were frequently the right men in the right place. orthe lowa ecloven —well it might be Iuvidious to varticularizo so far as thoy are coucerned, as all are nervy, brainy, bustling, hustling players, Sanford, Bailey, Larrabee and Gorman probubly excelling. For oxcellent and_offective work jebiund the liue, Larrabeo took the laurels, his rushing and tackling being superb, but in punting ho was no better than White'of the Nebraskas. The poor blocking off of the latter team made it out of the quostion for the backs to ain any vantage, while on the other hana jown wis & tower of strength here Yet they did not attempt o secure victory by the new eud pluy, relying almost solely upon the wedge. I'hey woro not slow in recoguiz- Ing that this w the easiest avenue to suc- cess, and they worked it for all it was worlh, Consequently thero was but littie kicking in the game. Hut here is the way in which the d won and lost: assel ball o afternoon one for the sport, a, but of culated for 1t with s ove Wsion. g out-classod, was braska's Tervito tlo opened with fowa in_possession of tho bail, tho team opening with the old wedge sehemo in which I'ull- Buck Larrabeo made a gain of threo yards, and thereafter tho Towaus forced the ball, by repeated exe cutions of this trick, clear'up to Nebraska's ton-yard line, At this pomnt tho bull was lost to tho Lincoln boys on the fourth down Two herculean efforts to gain ground through tho center failed, but on the third Captain Johnston mado & run around the right end, gaiuing full thirty yards This brilliant achiovement enlisted & salvo of cneers from tho parlisuns of the Nebraska crowd, In this play, which was as brilhant as any made in the game, Skiles, tho right end, cleared the way aud warded off in beautifui style. Johuston then attempted to send tho full back around the yight ond, but he was intercepted sud downed by the sturdy Elliott. The Lincolu contingent was unable to make further progress and on the fourth down the vall again roverted to the owa City giunts. Dhey quickly lost it agaiu, however, for all their attempts to push toward Nebraska's oal fallea. ‘The latter's efforts wero also utile, and lowa again capturing the spoere, by irvesistible rushiug and repetitions of the AR.

Score: lowa, 10; Nebraska, 0. Lasy lowa Now. Good team work on the part of Towa, and just the reverse on the part of Nc until the ctose of tho f this on made matters assume the features of a prohibition ath nic for the brawny wvas lamentably Nebraska's rush lino weak, and its attempts at blocking off Tn this respect were' simply unavailing, Towa *‘beet” told wofull, and when once thoy formed that resistiess V a gain was an absoluto certainty. Flippin, tho colored loft balf back of the Nebraska team, assumed a vasi amount of the heavy work for his side, and somo of his rushes wero of that character that never fails to evoke the plaudits of an enthusiastic crowd. Ho not ly playe ba with 1ds and feet, but kept his head all the time, and in several tight corners, used it to admirable advantage. Finally the Lincoln team realized that thero was but precious little hope for it, thrcugh the center or the ends, and in ¢ quence the agile Mosher took to kicking the ball. His first essay in this line was a brilliant punt over the opposing forc heads for fully forty yards. Here Elliott, Picree and San- ford cuptured ground for ITowa by terrific rushes plump down the center. Neoraska's line was ¢ rvated by this tremenaous strain, and uncqual to the task of staying their advan in and again th lowans used tho and finally succeeded in ching ws ten-vard line, Hers Larravee, & magniticent vlocking, scored another touch down, Se Towa, 14; Nebraska, 0. No points were made after thisin the first | the referee calling time a few moments subsequent to this play, leaving the Lincoln lads, nowever, possessors of the ball, In the Second Half, After the regulation ten minutes rest, the ficld was again partially cleared and tho' bat- tle rosumed.

At daybreak it was vaiaing, but along in the foreuoon the clouds lightened up and there was no moro vain. At 0 o'clock promptiy the remains of Gov eruor Hovey were moved to the corridor of tho court house. Tho bolls of the city began toliing as the coflin was carried out of the Hovey homestead aud continued to sound during the entire forenoon. The pall boarers, representing Hurrow post, were Willinm Barnett, Chvistian Green, Enoch Randolph, Leroy Jones, Dr. Huston and Frank Dixon, The remains rested in tho court house until 11350 o'clock and it is cstimated that during that time 10,000 persons passed by the re mains Upon the body being homestead the military drawn and the dead governor was left alone with the family for one hour. During that time no one was admitted to the house, At 12:30 the house was opened for the uneral services. ‘Tho casket rested in the south front parlor and around it were athored the celatives aud ear friends of deceased, the clel and most prominent men uttending the faneral, Tho services were simple. After the singing of a_hymn, by o choir selected from the Mt Veruon ehurches, Rev. Dodge, of the Mt. Vernon Mothodist [Episcopal church, offered prayer. The sermon was then preached by Governor Ira J. Chase, wuo talked for twenty-five minutes. The services closed with sir prayer, aud the procession 1o tho immediately formed.

Pricceton Shut Out in a Wonderful Game of Foot Ball, NEW JERSEY WAS SQUARELY DEFEATED. New Haven's Brawny Athletes Proved Their Superiority at Every Point —How the Great Battle Was Won. Masnarras Fieen, New York Nov, 20.— Tho greatest athletic event of the year i over, Yule and Princoton have fought their battle for supremacy on tha foot ball field, and long will it bo remembered by the thousands who saw one of the finest games ever played in this country. For weeks the generals of the two little armies of men wero drilling their forces for today’s work. Ihe struggle was one of the events 1n the sporting world which tue lovers of sport have faith in, It was a fight on its ments, the better team won, and the better who lest will pay over his cash knowing that ho had an bonest run for his money. The gates were not opened until 10 o'clock but by that time great thr of persons had gathieced about the different entrances When the gates were opencd there was a rosh that would have done credit to the members of either eloven. By 11 o'clock a great throng had gathered in tho grounds and every moment it augmentod by fresh arrivals. Tally-hos and all manner of vehicles began to arrive at that hour. ‘Tally-hos crowded with shouting students were to be scen on every thoroughfare lead- ing to the prounds. These were draped in blue and draped in orange and black, but whichever color it was the noise was just the ngs was sam Their Lungs ANl Right, Many wore the ways in which the students chose toshow their preference. As was to be cxpected tho free stands filled up first, From every row of seats fluttered orange and black flags and blue flags. It was dificalt to tell which color was tho most prevalent. The wearing of a flower appeared to be the modo or ex- pressing a preference on the part of e women who were present. And the women formed no inconsiderable portion of the im- mense throng. Some, so there would be no mistako as 1 how their sympathies went, wore blue costumes while others, and par- ticularly a bevy of handsome branettes, wore striking costumes of orange and black. By noon the grand stand began to fill up. The tirst person to take a seat in that por- tion was o handsome young woman who vore an immeus llow chrysanthemum. he occupied a seat in front and when the Princeton boys saw her they howled aloud ana for a long time. The managers had prided themsclves’on oue thing which they were disappomted in afterward. They had said that the grounds shed water ke sand. This was far from beg true. The raiu of last Moncay in the field left moro marks than could ve covered up by the little suwdust on hand. More tian this, the gamo of yesterday between Wesloyan and University of ~ Pennsyl- vania bad left the turf in a badly cut up con- dition, which the rain that foll carly in tho afternoon did not help in the least. At 1 o'clock a steady stream of bumanity tlowed in upon tho stand. Pretty much all the other uvailable spaco had been taken by that time. The Yaie flag was hoisted on the northern end of the grounds, where there were much hureabing and blowing of horns. It was repeated when a tizor skin representing Princeton was hung out i front of the uper balcony of the main stand, Up to that time thero ‘was a preponderance of Priuceton colors about the grounds, but the adhercuts of Yale kept coming in at tho gates in whole droves and the stand soon beeame a moving wass of blue, Nothiug but Noise. Yalo and Princeton were not the only col leges doing the yelling. There were delega- tions from overy other college within a radius of 300 miles from New York, and they all cheered for one sido or the otheron the slightest provocation, University of Penn- sylvavia, Wesleyan, Trinity, Columbia and a small bunch of Harvard men cheered for Yale, and among Princoton’s backers were Rutgers, Swartbmoro and a number of Penn- sylvania colloges. It did really seem s if the crowd would yell itself out before the me began. There was not a still moment from 11 0'clock to 12 0'clock. At 1:30 cvery available space about the fiold was occupiad. Every seat on the different stands was occupied. On_the long line of tally-hos stood students waving the different colors and blowing long and pur- ticularly villainous sounding horns. Tho cotloge cries and college songs arose on every wie. Thorain had ceasea outirely bofore this timo and every one was happy. It was estimatod that thero wero about 30,000 pevsons on the grounds fiteen minutes before the hour st for tho gameto begin, But wmore kept urriving constautly, not by dozens or scores but_ by hundreds.' Fully 57,000 persons were_in attendance before the game was called. It was estimated that the sum paid for admission to see the gama would reach 0,000, Up From the Stables, At last, after the crowd bad waited hours the Yalo team filed out of the club house, jumped over the fence und onto the field. [t was a signal for renewed shouting, but the crowd had yelled so much that there was really little difference in the total noise. McClung was first, followed by Hartwell and the others, and ull had their sweaters on. They hud searcely got to the middle of the field and tossed the ball around for a monute, when “Stumpy” King vaulted over the fence and led the black and orange striped young men into the arena. Princeton made more noiso than Yale on this occasion, and did not grow tired so soon. With the’ large number of substitutes, there were about fifty men on the field. Beginning of the B ttle. There was a sudden wild deluge of shouts and vlowing of horns aud waving of flags when the two teams wero seen to crystalize out of the scattered lot of players, and line 1 tho middle of the big cridiron. Then, as oach man beut terward with his hands on s knees and gazed havd at his opposite, the noise as suddenly stopped, and every one of those more than 47,000 wilil men and women was as still as o statue, and every one of those eyes was focussed on ouo little spot where the ball was, The great struggle that had been written about and tatked about und dreamt about so much for u year was to begiu, ‘Tnere were tho meu who stared each other havd in the eye and waited for the first plunge. Princeton won the toss and chose tho wost side of the tield. Sy , the giant center rush of the Princetons, had the ball, and as the players drew up on either side of the 1m- line he snapped back the ball to' the star quarter back. Quick s lightning the famous *'V'' was formed, and King recorded for his side eieht bard fought yards. Symmes sur great Sanford, the conter of the Yales, by his magnificent int furence with the hall in play, Again Sym shoots the spheroid back and this time Fliot, the loft half vack, makes o dash only to lose five yards when downed by the great Hoffol finger. Flinvs little gain of three yards is forgotten when Full Back Homuns gave e first sight of his ability as @ kicker of the leather bag, which he seut like a shot for thirty yards into Yale's territory after King had passed the ball back to him. Yale Gets the Ball, Now Yale for the first time has the ball, which was caught in clever style by McCd mick, the full back of the Yalo eleven. The ball is now in play, well to the middle of tho e ING, NOVEMBER 27, fleld. 1t is snapped back to McClung, Yale's doughty captain, who, amidst a_storm of Yale's cheers and the waving of biue flags, makes one of his famous runs, well toward the left of the fleld, and alded by magnificent interference records a gain of fifteen yards. He is finally thrown heavily by Vincent, the rising Princeton st Bliss now takes the cue, as the ball ngain comes in piay, with the two sides lined up face to face, and in a great spurt makes eight vards, but for offside play is allowed put five yards. Another gain by the samo player, who is downed by Vincant. On the two opnosing lines the boys faco eacli ather again, and when tho ball is passed swiftly back to Bliss ho punts it bigh in_tho e Just in time to eseape tho sonrushing orange and black, and the lively Homans catches it forty yards and retarns it to the sume spot with & punt that sends it into the hands of McCormick. The Yale man has no time to breathe, for he is downed by Vincont beforo he can move from his tracks. TI'he first five migutes of play elapses as the men liue up at coutre with theball in the hands of tho blues, McClung's Great Ruan, Tho second five minutes opons with great applause for Captain M'Clung, who maices a gain of twenty yards withi a run around tho left, He was finally tackiod and thrown by tho giant Riggs. Closo fighting followed, on which threo downs were counted against the blues, and the excitemont of the multitudo was at a fever heat, for all tho timo there was such o mingling of aems and legs ana bodies of the playecs as made it impossible to keep track of the individual players, Again the Yalo cohorts cheer a thirty-five- yard punt by Bliss, but it was the turn for the *tigers” when the ald roliable Homans returncd tho ball twenty-five yurds into the hands of Captain MeClang.” At this point there was a delay of fivo minutes over tho discussion of a point in the play and the first ten minutes had passed. As the men line up on the far north bound- ary of the field, McCormick gains fiftoen yards, to be tacklad beautifully by Poe, who was well up toward Princeton’s twent yard line. Bliss makes a wild rush toward Princeton’s line, but_ there is no gain. +Old Nassau' has theball. Agan FHomans makes ono of his famous kicks fer forty yards, and his men rush on so swiftly the ball is put in play on a down. Heffei- finger could make but four yards in a rusl in Princeton’s center, and McCormick follows with a rush for oight more, avd the ball is still with the blues. Scoring Slow Work. The “V* trick fails to work, and McCor- mick muffing, Bliss kicks the ball forty yards, whilo the Yale men cheer ull the vy airis blue. But little Poe catchos the wind-filled vag in fiue form, and tiftecn min teen bave passed with no pownts scored by cither side. As Princoton gots tho ball ana passes it vack to Homans who kicks it high toward tho castern field, McCormick stops it on the bound at Yalo's forty-rod line. Tho twenty minutes’ piay ends with a kick out_beyond bounds by Bliss to the south of the field The next five minutes is fllled active play which gained naught for side, until Homans makes a eroat ki fitty yards, which McCormick drops, the Yales by sheor good luck retan tho ball. M'Clung eains fiftaon yards by tho aid of grand interference of his men and Me- Cormick’s two rushes of twenty yards down the centre. Lwenty-five minutes have passed. With the ball in play again, Homans works a clean cateh of Bliss' punt of forty yards, and after the men line up Ilint makes a gain of fifty yards, Then the ball flies back to Homans, who, as.sure¢ as fate, kicks it well back in -Yale's torritory iato’ Me mick’s hands, fortyyards kown the field. M’Clung loses on Harold's tackle and Blis kicks for twenty yards Esfore the ball caught by Poe as the first Balf hour goes by. Homans Still Panting. Again Princeton tries hér full back’s punt- ing powers and sho does well, for the ball speeds forty yards sway and for the third time McCormiclk muffs tho ball, as the orange and black pounces upon him. A miserablo jumble of legs and arms—men of both si in a scrimmago where indiviaual play canuot be noted—makes tho thousands frautic with cuthusiasm. _As the tangle is pulled loose, it is seen that Yalo has the ball, ana of this the Yale cheer was the signal. _Small gains after tho strugglo wero made by M'Clung and Mc- Cormiok. Bliss makes a great run to tho right, gaining eighteen yards, where the wighty Flint lavs him low The first thirty. minutes have passed, as tho applause resounds through thoe field. Yale now forces the play, as sho recovers from her surpoise at the work of her gallant foo. Sho must do ordie. M'Clung and Me- Cormick fuil to get in and Bliss punts tho ball well into P’rincoton’s territory. On the return McCormick fails to catch Homans punt, but falls on tho ball, saving it for Yale, Scrimmage after scrimmage follows, and Riges of Princeton shows what a hero he is as ho prevents tho great Heffelinger from gawing for Yalo by the mighty rush of hi 200 pounds. Iach scemed 1mpassable to the other. As the forty minutes passes Yalo has the ball and has gained but littie ground. Twice the Yale men try the Princoton cen- ter, which stands as & rock against hor. Forty-five minutes have passed, while Yalo has made littlo more than enough to still re- tain the egg-shaped ball, Five Minutes ta Scora In, There is now but five minutes moro of the first half to play—tfive minutes having been taken up by the delay—and lively work must be done to scoro before the close of the first inning. Princoton wets tae ball, but starts in by losing it iu a fumble, MecClung mado a desperate ter in well up toward Princeton’s tw d line. Bliss ad- vanced the leather spheraid still further to bo thrown heavily by Vineent, A wild cheer broke forth from the ad- mirers of tho tiwers when it was sacn the plucky Vincent also gained tho ball. - As tho vall is put in play ngain Princeton’s captain tries his full_buck’s ability at the puut. “Uhrough the air tho ball flies for forty-five vards and finds McCormick waiting for it. Vincent is on his back bofore the oal! is cold. Timo is flying, only two minutes aro loft, every nerve is av tension, the drizzling rain that has fallen twenty minutes is unnoted. Yale lines up opposito her foe. 'The ball shoots buck to Bliss, who punts well to Princaton’s field. Tho*inning ends with a five-yard gain for Flint by the use of the groat ' trick to conter. Yale Was Desper.te. In a driving rain at 3:13 p. m. the Yale and Princoton men leave their dressing rooms Lo begin the second balf of their fight. The Princetonians are confident, almost too coufident, and cheec aftor.checr is sent up in honor of ' their brilliant work in the earlier part of the game. Desperation is pictured on the face of every Yale plaver, and the followors of the blué encoprage thom with & sories of wild yells, Ceptain Mc('lung has given his men some timely advico and they realize that o determined effort must be mado atthe outset to break through Princoton’s line. Riggs has been holding big HefTelfinger quite sufe, und Princoton has been tackling well, 0o, Ttis Yale's ball, and with she wedges through Princaton yards. On the next dewn Princeton holds her own, but presently Yale erushes through Princotow’s center fof tive yards, and before the air is yet cloar of fiving mud 'Princoton’s center Las boen punctured for two yards more. Princetonians lookon in dismay as the gigautic Heffeltinger makes an opening torough which McCiung 15 carried for five vards. Princeton is gradually losing ground and nothing but the loss of tte ball for Yale can prevent the blues from plauting the ball past Princeton’s goal. Yale Scored A ray of light appears to Princoton os the Yaule tackle fumblos i the ball, but before further damago is dond Hliss pounces on the oull and holds it for Yale, Again the advanc- ing Yalo army pierces Princeton’s centro five yards while the wearers of the orange and black begin to wonder what manner of weukness has suddenly come over thoir center, aua entive rush line in fact. The ball has boen crowded to Princetou’s twenty-five- yard line, Princeton bolds her own against an attempted run by M'Clung. Yale advances tive yards through tho left tackie, and E oS with mighty effort line for five irst.

The em- peror received him in a studiously calm und indifferent way, and avoided all allusion to polities. He made polite inquiries about the cuvoy's stay at Wiesbadon, and so forth. Next he asked for news of the czar's health, and, having talked for a short time about tho Russian crovs, broke off the audience General von Caprivi, the German chancellor, was rather less T in his subscquent interview M. do Giers. Ho said that C and her allies had peacetul aims, an assurance which the Russian envoy an- swered by declaring tnat Russia avd her friends were not one whit less peaceful. So tho much talked of visit of M. de Giers to Berin has had no visiblo result. At most, it has served as a protoxt for much ominous wagging of heads by diplomatic wisencres. Much grave significanco attaches to the speech of the cmperor to the guards, to which I referred yesterday. In this yoar of grace it is strange to find @ sovereign assuring his troops, as the Germaa emperor did, that it was perilous for soldiers to have much to do with civilians, and advising them to nold aloof from them. The emperor aiso remarked that his troops might have need of their courage in domestic conflicts, Speeches like this, of course, help on the cause of socialism. They show that internal complications may force the young emperor to go to war. A struggle begun under such circumstances would be to Germany what the war of 1870 was to France, New French Tariff. The scnate has approved the first seventy clauses of the general tariff adopted by the chamber of deputies, but despite the objoctions of tho minister ot commerce, the senate has refused to sanction the application of the minimum tariff to salt meats, canned provisions, game and turtle. The minister pointed out that the proposed measures were aimed principally at the United States, whose annual exports of pro- visions represcnted 500,000,000 francs. The senators rofuse to chango their minds. Thoy stick to their ultra protectionism:. A proposal was also made by tho minister of agriculture to postpone the debate on the duties on 1mported flour till June. +is rumored in_theatrical circles that the Melba scandal will be compromised by the intervention of the due d’Aumale, who is willing to pay Mr. Armstrong, the singer's husband, heavy damages to get tne duc @'Orleans out of his scrape. Those who know the duc d’Aumale’s good nuture and indulgence in such matters think the renort worth credence. It seems true that three Englishmen havo been arrested as spies at St. Etienue, for trying to securespecimens of the new French and Russian rifles. From documents found on the prisoners it would appear that the German government has a_regularly organ- ized spy agency in London. Tue affair will 10 doubt make much stir here.

ARRANGING THE COMMITTEE, Land Commissioncr Ouitor Joins Tssue With Secrctary Blaine, CHANGING ~ THEIR PRESENT METHODS, it Would te P Old Members to Continue Act Untl After the Election, Why mit erable to to Wasnixeroy Brneaw o Tir 513 FornreeNTie St Wasitivaroy, D, ., Nov Land Commissioner Carter joins with Secretary Blaine over tho proposition to continue the present national committeo in oftice aftor the presidential candidate has beon chosen. When the national committeo called on Mr. Blaine tho any Mr. Blaine said that from the prosent gathering of reprosentative republicans from all over the country, they had obtained much in- formation which could be of groat valuo to them in conducting the fortheoming national campaign, He was remindod that this com mittee would have nothing todo with tho conduct of tho vext campaign. “That 1s a great pity,” said tho socrotary, and ho then went on to give reasons why 1t would bo an excellent policy to chanwo the present method and horeafter let overs na- tional committee, instead of expiring by li itation when tho new eandidates were nou coutinuo to act untl after the cle tion. Having worked tovother for four years, tho members of tho committeo have much knowledgo of detall, which is lacking to a new committee. Alr. Blaino's suggostion soemed to strike the committeemen very favorably and it is not impossible that a proposition will be made at the next convention to make the change, but Land Commissiouer Cartor takes another view. He bas beon sceretary of the national congressionnl committeo for some yvears and is, therefore, in a position to speak aavisedly on the subject. Not a I ractical Idea. “Mr. Blaino's ides may be v, the surface,” said he, “but it work in practico. ‘The national committea 1ght to be chosen at the same time the presidentinl_candidates aro cnosen, 1 order to bo thoroughly in touch with the candi- dates and their platform. A committeo which holds over may have afihation with some particular_candidato who is not tho choice of the national convention, and in that case the candidute fuils to securo tho legal support which a committeo choson with spo- cial respect to his fowination would give, Purthermore, there is @ povular orror as to the amount of work which a national com- mitiee does. It is not the working body of the presidential campaign, for the oxecutivo committeo doos all the hard work. Mr. Blaine's wlea could not bo carried out, theroforo, by continuing this executivo committeo in oice, for it may bo mado up of men entirely outside of the national committee, +Mr. Dudley, for instance, who was troas. urer of the oxceutive committeo which did the bard work of the Harrison campaign, was not o member of the nationul committes but was chiosen beeause of his special titnoss for the work. also Mr. Barbour, tho peesent treasuver, is not & member of tho na- tional committes.’ The suggestiou of Mr. Blaine is not likely tobe earried out if the politicians accopt Mr. Carter’s theory. Prosident Harrison's “If T were Mr. Blaine I would not accept a presiaential_nomination if it were tenaered to me by acclamation and I wore sure of elees tion,” said_ex-Senator Palmer of Michigan this'morning after an allusion to the W orld’s faiv_commission, of which he is president. “ln the fivst 1 ' continued tho ox-sen- ator, “Mr. Blaine has got all the crodit out of natioral polities he could got under any circumstances, 1t would not add to his laurels to ve president and in his presont oftice he can get as much credit ana satisfac- tion us ho could if 0 tho presidential chair and atthe samo time he muy have all tho pleasures and none of the responsibilitics. “President Harrison's administration,” contiuued the ex-senator, *is a great success, Itis republican in the most vizorous and munly form. We have nover had o man i the whito house who has carricd out the principles of the party that elected bim as thoroughly and manfully as has President Harrison.” When he retiens to private lifo there will not b a man in this or any other country who can say ho was deceived or un- justly dealt with, The principles.he has de- fonded and establishod will live longer than the namo of the man.
