PENNSYLVANIA ALIVE FOR HAM
cocK.-There, was an immense Han
cock and English parade in Philadel-
phia on Saturday night. The line of
torches and banners extended for miles
and miles through the city, and the
number of men at one time in line
counted 1885; while those on the
sidewalks could only be counted by
tens of thousands, who were equally
enthusiastic for Pennsylvania's favor

The same night great meeting took
place in Pittsburg, which was address
ed by Col. John W. Forney, Benz. +.
Butler, Gen. Alfred Pierson, Marshall
Swartzwelder and many others. Mr..
Swartzwelder presided, and there were
one hundred aud fifty Vice Presidents,
who have all left the Republican party
in the present campaign. They are
not mere ward politicians, or men of
no standing but they are merchants,
lawyers, and men of high standing,
whose names are tower of strength
and are Of inestimable benefit to the
Democrats by sheer force of personal
weight. Pennsylvania is sure for her
noblest son.

"CAMPAIGN TALK. "A letter from
Washington, dated Sept. II, under
the above head, says:
'Probably there never was a presi-
dental campaign like this, where both
sides are claiming States to which no
reasonable expectation could be indul-
ged. To day letter comes here from
a member of the Democratic Commit
tee of Illinois that it will go Democra-
tie in November. As a stand-off to
this Delaware Republicans send word
here that Delaware will go for Gar
field. Ex-Judge Fisher and ex- United
States Attorney Harrington, of the
District of Columbia, of blessed and
savory memory, are stumping quite
actively for the Republicans, and it is,
perhaps, for this reason that hopes are
entertained of little Delaware going
for Garfield.
While it is quite likely that Hancock
and English will carry Illinois, it is not
even claimed here by the Radical ele-
ment that Delaware will vote any 9th.

nees.

-Garfeids Testimony Pe'Jred.
The facts in regard to Mr.. Garfield, as
found by the committee, are that he
agreed with Mr.. Ames to take ten shares
OF Credit Mobilier stock, but did not pay
Tor the same. Mr.. Ames received the
eighty per cent, dividend In bonds and

also received the sixty per cent cash divi-
dend, which together with the price OF
the stock and interest, left balance OF

Messrs. Kelley and Garfield present

The character OF the Credit Mobiller was
no secret. The source OF Its profits was very
well known at the time Congressman
bought It, Though Cakes Ames may have
succeeded in concealing his own motive
which was TO bride Congressmen, thei
acceptance OF the stock was not on thar
account innocent. The dishonor OF the

THE DEMOCRATIC ToRCHLIGHT
PROCESSION, on Saturday night, was
a very creditable affair. The men
were orderly, and the marching and
uniforms handsome. In point of
numbers it excelled the recent pa
rade of the Republicans more than
two to one. They were very much
favored by the weather, and the
streets were crowded with great
crowds of people who encouraged
the young men in line with cheers
and congratulations upon the taste
and propriety of their very imposing
display. The procession passed over
a very long route, marching about
three hours, and dismissed in good
time-just about IL o'clock. They
will do much better next time, as
many of the clubs had not gotten all

CoNKLINGS SPEECH AN INSULT TO
THE ANT1-GRANr REPUBLIcANs.-lt
now appears that Garfeld's visit to New
York was made with a view to he al the
breach between Conkling's faction and
the administration, and that Conkling
treated the whole effJrt with contempt,
| and now sneers at the Antl-Grant peo-
pie, and tells them 10 their teeth that If
Garfield is elected he will be compelled
to administer the government as Conk-
ling and Grants friends dictate, or re.
ceive the same TIT atment that HAYES has
received. In fact Conkling's speech in
New York on Friday night is com
mented upon by Republican lie Rspapers
as very injurious one for the party.
The speech shows that Conkling has no
idea of Garfield being elected at all
that the Republican party has been torn
asunder and could not be reunited
again should Garfield be elected. Conk-
ling evidently prefers defeat as the
surest mode of securing Grants cleo.
ton in 1884.
The Philadelphia Telegraph, an able
and standard Republican organ speaks
OF "Mr. Conkling's last greatest efIort, .
as follows:
"Mr. Conkling, at least ever since
1907, when, under Grants first admins
tratlon, he first OBJ aimed superior Cd
portunity 10 develop into full fledged
boss, has consistently acted on the idea
that Conkling is the Republican rarty,
and that such of the alleged Repubii,
cans as did not fall promptly into line
behind ConkliDg, and obey orders with.

tents, soreheads, doctrinaires, and were
even more despicable than tie wicked
Democrats-wicked Democrats, blythe
way, with whom Mr.. Conkline and hi,
lleutenants-or henchmen, as the,
might better be called-bave never hest
tated to trade off whenever here was an
opportunity to make anything for tn,
promotion of the Conkling idea. The
speech Of last night was thorough,
consistent exposition of that idea. i

THE ELECTION IN MAINE.-WHAT
IT PROVES. there is any signih-
canoe in the September and October
elections by which the result of the
November election may be foreshad-
owed then the election in Maine proves
that Hancock and English will receive
a greater majority than was given to
Tilden and Hendricks in 1876.
The election in Vermont showed
that the Democratic vote was increas-
ed in that State to such an extent that
a proportionate Democratic increase
in all the States, would give Hancock
and English heavy majority of the
popular vote and secure the election
in all the Democratic States that were
claimed for I'll This fact was
we'll known in Maine before the cleo
ton there and may have assisted to
produce the Waterloo defeat that en-
acted the Radical party with Mr..
Blaine at its head.
The effect of the Maine election upon
Ohio and Indiana cannot be estimated
with any degree of certainty. But if
we judge of this by the effect of the
comparatively light gain in Vermont
upon Maine, why then the influence
of the Maine election upon Ohio and
Indiana would result in a greater
route of Republicanism in both those
States than occurred in the Pine Tree
State.
Now, we are opposed to betting and
do not wish to induce anyenthusiastic
Democrat to win the money Of such
rash and reckless Stalwarts who are
swaggeringly Offering TO put up stakes.
But we assure our Democratic readers
that we have enough evidence to in
duce us to believe both Indiana and
Ohio will go for the Democrats in Oc-
tober. Indiana will be Democratic by
good, large majority and the Demo
| cratic vote in Ohio will be so near
majority that it will be regarded as a
virtual defeat for the Stalwarts in No
vember when the contest will be be-
tween Hancock and Garfield. We
have no doubt of this. And we urge
upon our Democratic friends to do
their best at the Little Election on the
9th of October, SO that Delaware may
give greater Democratic vote to Han
cock and English than she gave to Til
den in 1876. democracy" appears to
be marching on. 1t has.'already van
quished its opponents in Maine.

THE EFFECT OF CHEAP Iron AND
MATERIAL. - In the last letter from
Scotland by VIM. c. Lodge, Esq, to the
GAZETTE, he said: "Going up the
Clyde TO Glasgow, we have fine view
Of the iron shipyards that literally line
both shores for distance Of nearly five
miles. There are hundreds of iron
ships on the stocks, of all sizes from five
tons TO five thousand tons" With cheap
iron and cheap materials the Delaware
should present similar appearance.
