Washington, D. C, June 22. )
Sonator Teller's boom for the Presi
dential nomination of the silvvi men is
the most talked of political topic just now.
Before Senator Teller formally withdrew
roru the Republiran party, at the St.
Louis convention, his boom was only a
strong probability. To-day it is a for
midable force, being pushed bv men of
political experience While there hns
lecn no formal endorsement of Teller's
candidacy by the populists, influential
members of that party haw told silver
lemocrats that Teller is the only man
mentioned" in connection - with the Chi
cago nomination whose nomination
would certainly be endorsed by the pop-
lists' National Convention, and the
same assertions are being made by the
managers of the silver party, which is to
hold a National Convention at St. Louis
pon the same date Mint the Populists'
Convention meets July 22nd,
It is too early in the game to s:iy what
the Teller boom will amount to, but it U
not believed iu Washington that ho can
ot nominated by the Chicago conven-
:on, even it that convention (teenies to
nominate a silver man. Iu view of the
latest figures, accepted by both gold and
silver democrats, which give the silver
men nlmost two thirds of that convon
lion, it may teem slrauge to speak of a
doubt existing as lo the nomination of a
silver man, but you cannot spend an hour
talking witli unprejudiced men who are
carefully noting every move made on the
political board without becoming con
vinced that there is a doubt. The reasons
arc numerous. The silver democrats
whilo practically unanimous ou the
question of a platform, arc much divided
on ciudidiitcs. That this sLile of affairs
will be worked fur all il is worth by such
antWilver democrats as K.c-S -cretary
Whitney and Senators Gorman, Brice and
Hijl, who are now busy making plans to
head off the silver men of their party, is
certain. There is little doubt that il all
the silver men would support one ticket,
UcKiulcy and Ilobart would be given a
bad f: ight if they wore nol actually de
feated, but it is extremely doubtiui
some do uot hesitate to say, impossible
whether any single ticket will bj put iu
the field which will 1)4 supported by all
the silver men. Al least, that is the way
it looks now.
In addtiion to the organized etlorts now
being made to influence tho Chicago con
vention, step9 are also being taken by
them to try to make the House anti-silver,
however the Presidential olection may go.
It is said that a large fund will b; con-
tributed to be used in lighting silver
Candidates for Congrcsj no matter what
their party politics may be, iu every dis
trict in which there is the slightest chance
to elect a gold man.
The Iiepnblicans may get up lots of
enthusiasm later on for McKinley and
Ilobart, but there has been mighty little
so far. They explained this by saying
that it is because tho nominatiou of
McKinley was known so far in advance
of the convention. Whatever tho cause
may be, it is certain that Die enthusiasm is
lacking.
Republicans .from the West and North
west Bay that the silver bolt it a much more
serious matter than the party at laige is
disposed to regard it. They argue it will
require the defection of only a email
percentage of voters to moke every state
west of the Mississippi river -anti-Republi
can, and that it isn t only tho electoral
vote of the silver States proper ' which are
in danger. " -
The man who misinforms the people is
again getting his 'stuff' printed in tho
newspaper. 111a latest important ('break1'
was the statement that hi the event "ol
neither Presidential candidate getting -a
majority ot the electoral voles, next No
vember, and the election of President
being thrown into the IIouso of Repre
sentatives, it would be the members of the
louse who are elected at the same time
tliatPresiden.hu electors are voted Ibr
who would elect the President. The facte
are so plain that il is difficult to see how
such an error could have been made. The
men who will bo elected to the House
next November do not actually as-uoie
their places as such until the 4tk oi next
March, tile tame day the new Piesidcnt
is inaugurated. It is the present Mouse, the
members of which were elected in No
vember,, 1891 4 which would elect tho
President should there be co election by
the electoral college. 'In roting for Presi
dent the House voles by Slates,' the ma
jority of each' delegation deciding how
that State ah. ill vo'A a Stale only ha
one vote, and not as individuals, Divided
on patty linos, tho, Rapublicimj 'would
have a decided majority of the Suites, but
divided on silver and gold, the result
would be a little doubtiui.. .
