The Lexington Dispatch Wednesday, April 23. 1S02. The Democratic Issue. Johnson Says It is Regulation of Privileges. , -1 \ ?_."1 1C \Tornv \J16VGi3DQ, WUIU, .OLpiIi JH_> iuayui. Tom L. Johnson gave this statement out today as his opinion of what the real issues of the national campaign ' for 1904 should be: "The real issues of the next campaign will be internal issues. We are not so much interested in the Philippines as we are in the regulations of special privileges and of reform in taxation. I am opposed to imperialism, but I am not favorable to divert the attention of citizens to outside issues when the real issues are to be found right here at home. "This seems to be the plan of Henry Watterson in his recrnt state ments. I think he mistakes the real issue of the time. An attempt to ||L make one man the issue of a eamK paign seems to me to be UDwor'hy, K when there is much that is more iram portant. Mr. Watterson designation BB8T of President Roosevelt as the "man Wf on horseback" seems to me to be not entirely iDapt, but it is not just now j the matter of the most vital impor- I tance. It would be a small cam-u paign which would have a man for its main issue." He Hept His Leg. Twelve years ago J. "W. Sullivan, of Hartford, Conn., scratched his leg ! with a rusty wire.

The President is under( stood to be looking upon the suggestion with some favor. The Evening Star in commenting on the subject said: "Senator McLaurin of South Carolina has been frequently referred to as splendid timber for a cabinet ^ place and would undoubtedly be strongly pushed should the President ever conclude that he will give the ^ place to a Southern man. "Senator McLaurin would have the backing of business men, manufacturers and others." 7 3 Mr. Lover's Scrap Book. r Washington corrspondence News and Courier: Representative Lever . is compiling a novel "scrap book." r This scrap book, or album, is to contain the photograph and biographies 3 of all Mr. Lever's namesakes. Since his entrance ino public life, and' 3 especially since his election to Cona gress last summer, Mr. Lever has f been honored with a large number of i. namesakes. In each case the parents t have sent Mr. Lever a picture of his 1 namesake, whereupon "the Baby of s the House" has replied with a suitas able remembrance. Owing, however, to the already large cumber of namesakes and their rapid increase, it may be necessary before long for Mr. 3 Lever to confine his remembrances . to public documents or packages of f seeds. In the "scrap book" already t are pictures of over a dczen babies, t some bearing the full name: "Asf bury Francis Lever," others only one a of the Congressman's names.
