that it will and mr os es talk is 1 calculated to increase their number while hennas made no direct changes change he ha says ays that them asking for his big resignation was the result of a conspiracy to force him aim out of the office adding sig ig autly As long oas as a I 1 stay at tho the head of the supervising architects office I 1 propose to run it straight trl ht if I 1 had bad been willing to go into deals with the contractors contractor and divide up with them there would A have been no difficulty about my remaining in office that is very serious talk sod and if there be any ground for tho the implied charge it contains somebody ought to be shown up and punished if it be merely the result of sore goro at having baying to give up 1500 a year mr OKo urke is the party who deserves deserve the punishment but he stop there lie intimates intimate that at least two of big hi predecessors potter and found themselves forced to resign or wink at irregularities the importance p ortance of this matter is great the supervising architects office has charge of all the work noon every public building in course ot of construction throughout the united states and it is a grave tiling thing to tu iu dimate that contractors for this work have bavo power enough to force the bead of that office out of public life the reason given out at the treasury for the Secre asking for mr Ollo urke I 1 is the long continued friction between him and his chief clerk and the chief of the taw law and contract division of his bis office which kept the business of the office disturbed all the time the who agree with mr are kentuckians Kentuck lans ians and personal onal friends of secretary carlisle neither the republican nor the democratic congressional committees have taken any decided position on the silver question both tell candidates dates for Cou coutress gress that it to is Is a matter for theato settle individually to suit themselves vs consequently there are democratic Democrat io candidates making their canvass as n friends of free frea coinage and as opponents opponent and it is just the some same with the republicans in this ibis connection ibbe the views of 0 senator roach of north dakota are interest ag lie he says the all important question in my state is finance the tariff and all things thing else are of little importance compared with sliver allver the have a strong tion ln in the state are out lor for free colo coinage gge while neither of the old parties aro are thoroughly committed on the question que atlon the republicans republican will try to satisfy the allver allvar people with some sort of expression f friendly to silver and the t e democrats cannot afford to dalre any halfway position the silver question Is bound to be the vital issue in the west and the abe Damoc democratic party parly must como out squarely on it the tariff can no ito longer be a leading issue the western people are tor for silver without regard to the attitude of either party and the situation is such us tie to render a read of party lines probable in my state a full state ticket Is I 1 to reelected elected be oleo ted and the senate branch of the legislature holds over fo for r four years and will participate in the lection election of senator liana hans broughs successor the three parties are therefore making a hard bard tabt for the legis la the populists lists are strong enough not to be without hope of getting the next senator the tha first step toa towards ards getting the sugar bounty before the courts was taken here this week when a louisiana Loui aiana firm engaged in growing sugar oane cane and making sugar applied to the court tor for a mandamus to compel secretary carlisle to have bava their plant inspected so as to enable them to collect the bounty on the sugar produced from this years crop of cane the petition was arese prese presented anted to judge McComas who directed secretary carlisle Carl tile to show cauce on oct 4 next nest why the mandamus should not issue as aa prayed the argument is looked forward to with much interest although it is thought that a much stronger case can be made for the best sugar makers who have been the tha bounty on sugar that was made ba cra the abe bounty waa repealed rothe rethe the civil service commission wish it known atiat that all information concerning the scope and character of the various examinations for appointment to federal office may be obtained free by making application direct to the tha commission certain parties in washington and elsewhere have been trading on the abe credulity of candidate tor for examination by making a charge for this information which may just as a easily eally be for nothing by writing direct to the civil commission washington D 0 anyone who supposes that secretary carlisle Is visiting president cleveland merely for recreation makes a big mistake mrs carlisle and mrs cleveland will probably ret get considerable recreation out of the visit but it Is business and very important business principally of a political nature that oc curles the time of ahm president and his bis secretary of the treasury what ibi result ot of this important conference will be is of course unknown knOWD at this klinl but some aoma shrewd politicians politician will raise mlis their guess it if one of ci tho results bo be a not at some creedy action on tho the part ot of the administration intended to help its it party in the carana larn which la Is reported to be far f from satisfactory up to this time secretary Secret carlisle had bad exten edd conferences with harrity Harr lly of the democratic national committee and chairman faulkner of the congressional corn com mattea bojtor he ha left washington he ha
