The Presidential Campaign Open.
' At the‘Republican mass meeting in
New _York last week, at which Ex-
President Harrison was the principal
. speaker, Chairman Mark Hanna was
called upon for a speeph, to which he
. responded by declaring the speech
they had just heard we the keynote of
the campaign and thatvthe campaign
was now' wide open.,
This speech, shart as it was, meanta
great deal. It is not usual to get a
Presidential campaign fairly under way
until the middle of September at least.
There is always among experienced
politicians a fear that campaign en-
thusiasm aroused too early may subside
before election day, and the usual
policy has been to start the spell bind-
ers and brass \bands about, six. weeks
before the «Action and run the can-
vass on the high pressure plan from
that time until the votes are cast.
Chairman Hanna’s announcement,
which was fully warranted by the facts,
shows that this campaign is to be an
exception to theusual rule. Famous
and exhaustive speeches on the issues
of the campaign have. already been
made by Bourke Cockran, John Sher-
man,BenJam1n Harrison, Thomas B.
Reed, Senator Thurston and Others
scarcely less thI known, while Mr. -
McKinley’s letter of acceptance given
to the public last week was in itself an
exhaustive discussion 'of the issues
raised by the chagu platform.
Three weeks, then-fore, before the
speaking campaign usually opens in a
Presidential year, the Ame: ican public
f‘lias been addressed from the platform
and through the press by the ablest
public men of the present generation,
and It is simply 1mpo'ss1ble that the can-
vass can lag from this time on. The
campaign is wide Open and it is going
to stay wide open until it is closed by
the closing of the polls on election day.
The speeches already made will furnish
campaign material to be distributed to
thevoters through the printed page and
to be repeated and elaborated by the
thousands of other speakers who will
address school house. and cross roads
gatherings, as well as great audiences
in the cities and large towns.
The early opening of the campaign is
a good omen for the success of an hon-
est currency and sound government at
the polls. The campaign must, of ne-
cessity, be an educational one, and it
has not been opened an hour too early.
The free silver propaganda has been in
Two months
will be quite short enough time in which
to present, the other side of the ques-
tion to the voters. But with the pre-
liminary detail work of the campaign
already. well in hand and the principal
advocates of sound 'money already on
the stump, there should be time enough
between now and election day to con-
vince every voter tho is open to con-
viction of the folly of debasing the
American standard of money.

The Indianapolis Convention.
Indianapolis will'be the Mecca of the
real Democrats this week, and the con-
vention which w111 be called to order in
that city to-morrow will be in every
particular a notable one. Every State
except Wyoming, ‘Idaho, Utah and
Nevada will be represented in its
membership. Ex-Governor Roswell P.
Flower, the chairman of the New York
p delegation at the Chicago Convention,
and who announced that New York de-
,clined to vote, on every ballot for
President and Vice President, will be
temporary chairman of the convention,
and its permanent chairman w1ll‘ be
United States Senator Cafi‘ery, of
Louisiana. ’
That a convention of 900 ”delegates,
comprising many of the foremost lead-
ers of the Democratic party,,could have
been called together in so short a period
‘ is an unmistakable evidence of the
.widespread and profound dissent from
the action of theChicago Convention,
both as to its platform and candidates.
‘3-
A sound mone'y platform and'a ticket
that all men will recognize as orthodox
in Democratic faith will certainly be
placed in nomination at Indianapolis
this week. The fear that suitable can-
didatcs might 'be hard to secure has
vanished with theelection of delegates,
and the conventiOn will have first-class
candidates to pick and choose from. Its
nomination will not go begging.
That a convention representing the
real Democratic sentiment of the coun-
try and composed of delegates, many
of whom have been the favorite leaders
of the party in the past. will command
a large following from the rank and
file of the party, is certain. That the
vote the ticket which will benominated
at Indianapolis will attract, will defeat
Bryan and Sewall electors in several of
the pivotal States is equally certain.

A vivid conception of the wild luxur-
iance of vegetation along the Amazon
River is conveyed by the news that in«
opening telegraphic communication be-
tween Para. and Manaos, a cable is to be
laid for a long distance at the bottom of
the river, surrounding forests being so
dense and tangled that it is deemed im—
practicable to run a telegraph line
through them.
