WEDNESDAY. - MARCH 18, 1896 CARLISLE AND OLNEY. The declaration ia made that Secre tary Carlisle will be the administration candidate for the presidency. Since Whitney's statement that he would not be a candidate and the fact made known that Cleveland would not fly in the face of precedent and try and be a greater nan than George Washington, the con test has narrowed to the two cabinet officers, Carlisle and Ulney. Aa the latter was, at a meeting of his friends, placed in nomination for the presidency, and has never denied the soft insinua tion, it is a reasonable conclusion that he has no objection to being considered as a presidential possibility. Carlisle and Olney are the two mem bers of the present administration who, Irom the overtaking wreck and carnage, have escaped with few bruises. Olney made a good record as attorney-general, and eucceeded to the state department in time to save it from utter disgrace. Carlisle is really a greater man in public estimation than when he left the senate and entered Cleveland's council. Upon the principle that it ia better to receive a nomination for the presidency, even if it means defeat, than never to have had ench recognition, these two men may gather their forces. Neither would be feared by the Republicans, unless the latter should make the crimi nal mistake of not being perfectly hon est and clear in its attitude towards Bilver. If Carlisle were nominated he could only be so upon a sound money platform, which, judging from the feel Ing displayed in Democratic gatherings, might be hard to obtain. If the Republicans do not meet the issue squarely and declare against the 0-cent dollai craze, their correct posi tion upon the tariff may be neutralized The Republican party has an opportu mty such aa is seldom presented. If the St. Louis convention construct a platform, the foundation of which shall be protection and the 'superstructure a -declaration for sound money in other words, against the free coinage of sil ver the Democrats need make no nom inations. If the Republicans bungle tne money question, and the Democrats nominate Carlisle, standing upon sound money doctrine, a difficulty may be en countered in carrying certain states which otherwise would not exist, Protection first, and then a sound financial system, ia what the Republi can platform should advocate, for with the enactment of the first, the latter would follow almost as a matter of con sequence. It must not be forgotten that the - Commercial Club of this city was or ganized for the purpose of advancing the interests of the town, as well as for social amusement. In the latter re spect the club is proving a great success, and it has also done some good work in the other respect, as its agitation about the locks will' witness. There are a good many citizens who put their money into the Commercial Club with the idea that the interests of The Dalles would be a constant topic of consideration In the organization. Heaven knows- that there are many questions of great'im portance to this city which could be well considered and discussed. We suit. geet that regular meetings of the club be held and committees be appointed to whom certain" work could be delegated. It should be remembered that the Com mercial Club was organized upon broader lines than, those which consti tute a elub for social aha athletic purposes. The Jingos are out of a job just now Great Britain has practically conceded the demand of the United States for ar bitration regarding the' Venezuelan affair, while the students of Spain have been rold to attend to their books and leave off warlike demonstrations against this government. The belligerancy of Cuba is conceded, and any opportunity for the United States to engage in a for eign war seems vanishing. At the same time congress should take a lesson from the events of the past winter and seek to increase our fighting strength. The sub ject is one not to be dismissed lightly, and if a tariff bill cannot be passed this session, no other topic could better oc cupy the attention of our congressmen than that of coast fortification. The in crease of our army and navy lias grown to be a necessity and a wise provision for the future demands that the govern ment lay aside its self sufficient policy and make such military and naval ad vancement that are necessary for its safety.
