Special Washington Letter.
USING Christmas times there
were things doing besides
making presents and produc
ing dyspepsia. In the line of
president making It was somewhat
lirely. The Cincinnati Commercial
Tribune puts both Secretary-of State
John Hay and Governor General Wil
liam H. Taf t now of the Philippines,
soon to be secretary of war, to the lists.
Taft is an Ohioan, and Hay Is an ex
Ohioan; consequently the Commercial
Tribune feels at borne with them. It's
a decidedly"' cold day when Ohio has
hot a presidential candidate or candi
dates on hand. At present she appears
to be nursing at least half a dozen.
Dec 23, when millions of human be
ings were preparing to sing the angelic
song of nineteen centuries, "On earth
peace, good will toward men," the fol
lowing important dispatch was sent
out from Boston:
"WchaHt Otney, former secretary of war.
l- to be formally- put forward for the
Democratic presidential nomination at the
January meeting bf the Democratic state
convention by a resolution which will ask
the co-operation of the Democracy of the
other New England' states to the effect
that'New England may go to the national
Convention united for the Massachusetts
man.
' William McNaryJ, chairman of the
Democratic state committee, says that it
was decided to' seek the nomination for
Mr. Oiney at a conference held a few
evenings ago, at which many prominent
local-Democrats were present and which
was also attended by John Sharp Wil
liams of Mississippi, house leader of the
Democrats in congress.
Three" days later it was announced
from New York that great pressure
.was being brought to bear on Hon.
Charles F. Murphy, the big chief . of
Tammany, to declare for William
Randolph Hearst for president, and the
pressure was sufficiently strong to in

If there is anything tn the ancient dic
tum, "In multitude of counsel tbera la i
wisdom," surely the Democrats are la
luck so far as selecting s prcatdentisl
candidate is concerned. All tbe Demo
cratic editors are busy se)ctins, and
many Democratic statesmen are in
duce the Tammany Times, the organ dulging in the same luxury. In fact.
