Colonel' Kennon.

or the Thlrtj fourth infantry recently appointed. but who has been on duty at Havana as assistant adjutant general had a long conference with Secretary Root toda Colonel Ken- non so pressed President McKinley with the information he brought front Havana that the president thought it all- Tisatole he should talk with Secretary Root. Colonel Kennon assured both the president and Secretary Root that the course which General Brooke was pursuing met with general approval was of that careful and conservative nature required by the conditions In the Island. It was necessary to make the. old fit the new with as little friction as possible.

As to elections in Cuha Colonel Kennon told the secretary that he thought the time was somewhat distant when the could be held to advantage. By a provision In the peace treaty the Spanish residents In the island were given one year from the date of exchange or ratifications in which to declare their pref- scenes as to citizenship. Elections couuld not be held he said until after they elapsed In justice to ttu class. The desirability of leaving the matter open was apparent. said Colonel Kennon because a.

large proportion of the property was owned by Spanish subjects and It could be demonstrated to them what their interests were In becoming citizens it would be better for the future of the island. Colonel Kennon said that the people of Cuba were fast coming to the- conclusion that the interests of all would be be subserved by these people accepting Cuban citizenship sad by Spaniards and Cubans acting In harmony. and while they do not mix well at present. the feel- Ing of Irritation is wearing away. The matter of suffrage is one the colonel said that must be carefully considered.

The disadvantages which a great proportion of the people have been under and which have prevented them from being educated will make it extremely hazardous to grant univ ersal suffrage hen the time comes for holding election. SacHetary Root was much raUlled with the information which Colonel Ktn- non conveyed. The secretary has been receiving a neat mass of documents and data upon Cuba. and Porto Rico Sonic of the alleged facts are diametrically opposed to eactr other. and the secretary now trying to reconcile the differences and sift the truth.

It rarely happens that the founding of a new Journalistic enterprise attracts such widespread attention and credited with so much importance in a political sense as la the case with the establishment Ii few days ago of a new dally paper in Jacksonville with Hon. Robert MeNamee. the present speaker of the Florida house of representative as editor In chief This newspaper The Evening Call looked upon at the state capital and indeed throughout Florida as an' unusually ambitious venture likely to exert II. very considerable Influence upon the future of Florida polities and its course opens up an immense field for speculation. This Is Robert MeNamees paper.

and that It Is the man himself rather than his paper who la assuming large importance in the political fled The newspaper is his mouthpiece and Is looked upon as II. medium to serve the Interests and ambitions of himself and his friends and supporters That Mr. MeNamee has' political ambitions there need riot be a. moments doubt. He wants to go to congress and he wants to Ito' badly.

He is utter Congressman Bob- Davis scalp. and he Is said to be moving heaven and earth to get it not later than next year. Davis flow represents the second Florida district at Washington and his fight to retain his seat another term Is one of the prettiest now on the boards In FUorlda There are only two congressional die- trlcls in Florida and Steve Sparkman can have the first one as long as he wants it There is no one In sight who dreams. of opposing him. and it IS so certain that he will be re re-elected next year that no interest Is taken in the matter.

Most cautious politicians too. will at this time bet better than even money that Colonel Davis will. be returned from the second district because he Is very popular with his constituents and because the opposition to him Is not united. But. Davis is going to have a.

lively fight on his hands and It has already commenced with sufficient warmth to be interesting. Pour Aspirants for the Place. Without the a of field glasses there can a1read be seen three cut can fildates for the occupancy of Davis's seat besides Davis. himself. They are President Frank Adams of the stats senate Hon.

Frank Clark of Jacksonville and Speaker MeNamee Of these It is thought that Mr. Davis fears. MeNamee most and it Is the best Opinion here that hl judgment in this respect Is' good. Mr. MeNames came very near beating Davis for the nomination three years ago and he has developed wonderfully since then.

and especially during the last twelve months. He won the' seat in the legislature which. he now holds after the stlff- est sort of a fight against powerful factional opponents and the who state was so pleased to hear of. the defeat of the gang which knifed him that Mr McNamee gained additional Importance Then he wae elected speaker of the house by the forces which elected Mr. Tallaterro United States senator and won the at tentlon of the whole state by the admirable manner in which he presided over the house.

Such is the recent story of this popular aspirant lor congressional honors this young lawjer statesman editor who. on account of his native ability and political sagacity. has been termed the William Jennings Bryan of Florida although he might perhaps be more aptly called the William Goebel of Florida People 11 over. the tat are watching with friendly interest to see whether the craft which he has launched upon the sea of Journalism will land him safely at the post of Washington. A Georgian Id the Race.

States district attorney for the southern district of Florida. during Cleveland's second term and he made a rattling good prosecuting officer.

Clark th moved his' residence to Jacksonville. where he built up a considerable following. The factional division and suh-divlslods of Jacksonville politics Is a wh volume unto itself which will have to be skipped. Suffice it to say that a short time before the campaign of 1898 Clark. made arrangements to deliver.

his following from the stralghtouts representing the Call people to the. regulars or sntiCalllte1. Prominent among the regulars was Hop James P. Taliaferro now' United States senator Frank Clarks reward for jump. lag Into the ranks of Mr.
