Show THAT CINCiiMNATf BAST4itoT " What Prominent Haa Think af tha Political Polit-ical lotaat. Washington, May 22. A number of public men were interviewed on the new political organization formed in Cincinnati. Secretary of the Treasuay Foster thinks the broad and generous public policy of the republican party is such that there is no room for a third party. The new political organization could not do any thing necessary to national comfort or prosperity without stealing republican thunder. The wild schemes of the third party advocates cannot have lodgement in the minds of sensible sen-sible people, and movements based on these eccentricities are necessarily ephemeral. Senator Chandler thought the platform plat-form rather dangerous, with the possible possi-ble exception of the plank relating to government control of railroads. Representative Crain of Texas said: "It will help the Democrats and hurt the Republicans. Only that and nothing more." |
