TUESDAY. OCTOBER 6189 G.
Germany seems to be quite anxious
‘ to get into a muss with Great Bgjt-
ain no doubt thinking that Russia
and France would be opposed to Great
Britain on account of her opposition
in the Turkish adjustment. Now that
France and Russia stand with Great
Britain to force Turkey to a more de-
cent attitude in the treatment of the
Cretans and Armenia Germany may
wish that the studied insult that was
given to Great Britain at Zanzibar
had been put on ice until it cooled.
John Bull is a bad man to fool witli
when the peace of Euybpe deixmds
upon keeping him in good everyday
humor.
France is not going to give up Ty-
nan. the' dynamite suspect just now.
hut so long as the czar is in that coun-
try Tynan will lx* held as a hostage
for the good behavior of the nihilists
who with himself are suspected of
having designs on the health of the
Imperial house of Russia.
The New York betting ring will is-
sue Its declarations from time io time
as to the probable outcome of the
votes in the several states. There has
been little change for the past week
the odds and even money offered on
McKinley aggregating more than four
sevenths of the total vote in the elec-
etoral colege. This places the Mc-
Kinley vote as 275 and the daily re-
turns justify the estimates.
Watson Is hot in the collar to think
that any one should understand him
so imperfectly as to think that in any
event or under any circumstances be
would pull out of the vice presidential
race in favor of such a plutocrat as
Bewail. Watson will stick until the
last hour.
There is not a great deal of spread
eagle business over the campaign in
the old Twelfth district but the quiet
work that Judge Noonan and his
friends are doihg is telling favorably.
• The reports that reach this city of the
campaign are full of encouragement.
Four weeks of active work and there
will no doubt be left in any mind
that tfie district continues in the Re-
column for indefinite years
to come. It could not have a better
destiny.
There Ts not so much talk of Bryan
carrying the northwest with a whoop
as there was a month ago. It is now
conceded that the situation in Indiana
is past remedying for him and that
it is not much better in Illinois. With
these states and Michigan. Wisconsin
lowa nnd Minnesota in the McKinley
column salt would not save Bryan.
There are not enough states left to
elem unless he should carry New
York or. Pennsylvania or Ohio or
someSof the New England states. It
is not Bryan's
New York calculations put Ken-
tucky safely into the Republican elec-
etoral column but only by a narrow
margin. The sound money Democrats
in that state put the figures for Mc-
Kinley at least 20.000 more than the
Republican managers count there
is at least gratifying for it
shows that the figures given out by the
Republicans are not extravagant and
promise to be fully justified.
There are thousands of the gallant
and patriotic children of Illinois-scat-
tered throughout other states who
are fearful of Altgeld's election for
they would deem his reelection a
state and a national calamity. There
is no need to worry. Illinois will
bury Altgeld and Bryan in one grave.
Kentucky sound money Democrats
estimate their vote for Palmer and
Buckner at 50000 while the Republi-
can managers figure it at 12000
This is 55000 in favor of the Repub-
lican plurality.
The'Canadian Pacific authorities
are evidently monkeying with the
facts as to that telegraph strike. And
they forgot to say that the.railroad
orders threaten to take a hand in the
fight. / /
Glass is making a spirited canvass
in the Eleventh district and expresses
himself as confident of the result.
Hard work is needed down there and
it ought to bring forth Republican
victory.
Middle-of-the-road Fops in Kansas
nominate Bryan and Watson electors.
will not have anything to do
with Sewall. In another month they
will shake Bryon as well at least
T
many will. ~/r
As the days grow find the end of
.he election contest grows near it is
seen that several states that early in
the campaign were conceded to Bryan
are now safe for McKinley Kansas
among them.
It is not at all settled that the Pop-
ulists and the Popocrats in Indiana
liave agreed to fuse. It would be far
nearer the truth to say that— they
have only agreed to disagree at least
so far.
The Canadian Pacific railroad is
seeking telegraph operators in the
United States. No self-respecting
American operator Is going over there
to hunt a job that another has had
to give up.
Julius Goldschmidt statistican of
Republican headquarters at Chicago
says that twenty percent of the Ger-
man Democratic vote will bolt Bryan
and vote’ either for Palmer for
McKinley.
Florida votes today for governor
and other state officers. The returns
will show that there has been no in-
crefise in the Democratic vote of the
state compared with the Republican
vote( when the figures are contrasted
with those of the gubernatorial elec-
tion of the last presidential year.
There is nothing official to base this
declaration upon save the general
trend of matters in all the state elec-
tions held this year. If Florida does
not drop off in her Democratic vote
she will be the only state holding
elections this year liefore Novemlier
that has not done so.
Tlie Missouri freesilyerltes are not
free speech advocates in some section
of the state at least at Palmyra for
instance where the sound money
sjieakera were hooted down and not
permitted a hearing. This action
will not gain votes for any party a-
mong the sound headed folk.
Four weeks from today and the
hosts that have l>een marching coun-
termarching drilling and going
through the manuel will be ranged
in line of battle. It is no sham en-
counter either this battle of the bal-
lots this year and there will be
suite one in hospital when it is over.
Assurance is given upon the repu-
tation of some of the greatest Repub-’
lican campaigners in North Dakota
that stave is not in the doubtful col-
umn. Editor Jewell of the Bismarck
Tribune says that rhe state is going
to go for McKinley and that he knows
it. He says that so confident is he
that the state will go Republican
that he .will wager any resaonable
amount on the result also that he
has money to a Irage amount put. in
his lands for that purpose. North
Dakota is not a big state it is true
but three votes off the Bryan column
and added to the McKinley figures
counts six.
The St. Louis Exposition managers
in offering a week’s net receipts of
the exposition to the tornado relief
fund have devised nobly. The re-
ceipt s for that period should lead
anything on record. The Merchant's
exchange relief committee will take
charge of the funds.
Disappointed lovers are growing
numerous judging from the number
who are put down as such in rhe
prints but it would seem that It must
be the parents who are the disap-
pointed parties when the numl»er of
successful elopemedts are considered.
The youngsters get there..
Even the terrors of an American
election can l>e endured when the al-
ternative is the bagpiix* in the arms
of a fashionably woman. as is the
ease at all the -Scottish shooting
boxes. There may have been a more
in the past than the bagpipes but it
has not survived to be known among
the tortures of this present.
Culberson's declaration at Center
Point that he feared the result of
the Populist and Republican combi-
nation in Texas has caught the state
like a greased streak of lightning
fast to a bear’s tail in a cedar brake.
It is being echoed in every direction.
It is seldom that one of the state gang
is honest enough for such an admis-
sion. but the slip is sometimes made.
The courts in several of the stated
are getting into business determin-
ing which wing of the multi-winged
Democratic party is entitled to the
nathe of Democratic on the election
tickets. It patters not as to the
long as the vote is for sound
money and McKinley.
Straw votes were taken all last
week at the Illinois state fair and
the result was more than a two to
one vote for McKinley over Bryan.
Saturday the free silverites endeav-
ored to roll up a vote and snow un-
der the sound money men but could*
only muster 050 for the 1.472 cast for
McKinley. If this is all that the far-
mers can' do where is Bryan to get
his votes. .
The state candidates for Missouri
on the Republican ticket have reach-
ed St. Louis on their rounds and
after a vigorous canvass of three
weeks and using every means in their
ix>wer to correctly size up the situa-
tion. they report as absolutely with-
out foundation the reports that there
have been Iprge' defections from the
Repulilican ranks. Lewis. Republi-
can candidate for governor lias hosts
of friends among the fret* silverites
who would not mourn to see him
elected.
Bayard who is the greatest Demo-
cratic foghorn that was ever sounded
abroad has a son who is not so great
a gossoon as his fattier and
has cast his sandals off at the
movement Sewall is not alone in
having a son who is wiser than his
respected back number dad.
Hill does not offer any excuse for
dropping Bryan but he says
that ‘*there was no use in attempt-
ing to advise him. He was all up in
tfie air and he knew* it all so I quit”
there is no use of looking farther.
Bryan will not be up so high in the
air after his balloon bursts early in
November. Neither will he be the
first gas bag rider that has lately come
to grief. '
Bryan says that he knows' a little
about the banking business. So do
the people and they do not intend- to
bank on Bryan. Bryan had on de-
posit in a busted bank the sum of
$73.00 and the bank held his i>aper
for $lOOO and holds it yet. Bryan
has the money and the bank the ex-
lierience. It be the same way
if he is elected president but he will
not be.
There is <mly one way to cure the
itch for notoriety that some would be
party leaders of the Republican per-
suasion in Texas have so laid that
they aiv a nuisance to society and
that would be to shut them up in a
bolted room with a cactus plant and
let them scratch it out. Mullatto Me-
I>onald is of this stripe and should not
lie mentioned. He only itches for
notoriety and is the most notoriously
no count politcian of the dark stripe
that the state is afflicted with. Such
men should not be referred to even
to show their worthlessness.
TOO BIG A JOB.
We have more silver in
currenc toda than gold and more
civilized nation in the orld. The
mints of all the other great na-
proportionate!. than any other
tions are all closed to silver and
they have long since stopped ad-
ding silver U* their curency.
The value of Silver has di/ain
islad abqut one half while its
production has more than doub-
led within the last entj’ years;
and its relative value has
to one-thirtieth that of goid.f
