A BUSINESS PRoPosTTIoN.-A prominent
Democrat and business man of this city,
and who holds position in the party above
the rank and file, in remarking yesterday
upon the probable effect of the election in
Indiana and Ohio upon the general election
next Tuesday, said "Wel, for my part.
shall not feel badly to see Garfield elected
The country is now exceedingly prosperous
we cannot well expect to see it more so. The
election of Garfield. OF course. means con-
tinuati0n of the present line OF administra-
ton, which attends, if it has not brought
duouG, lie present. prosperity. anu III "ou4u
be reasonable presumption to expect that
the same prosperity, with the same line of
administration, would continue. And while
| have no doubt but that Hancock is
all right, still l must confess that
until he had an opportunity to show
that the present feeling of insecurity on the
part of many capitalists and business men,
especially at the East, was groundless, in
reference to the effects of change and the
line the new Administration would take, the
tendency and effect would be to greatly inter-
fere with the present very prosperous condi-
ton of financial affairs, and possibly such
effect might be lasting. Therefore, as there
seems to be a reasonable certainty of the con-
tinuance of good times in business by the
present line of administration being continued
by Gar6elds election, | say, as a business
proposition, shall not feel bad TO see him
elected next Tuesday"

belief that they were all of incendiary origin,
and probably all the work Of one person or
gang. A few evenings since the salmon
cannery, near the west end of the railroad
bridge, was set on fire three times during one
night, which led to steps being taken
to fix upon the guilty party the
work of destruction being done. Chief
Karcher was applied to for assistance
ia the matter, and he placed the case in Of
ficer Jackson's hands to work up. MIR. jack
son went to Washington on the subject ana
investigated the circumstances attending the
late fires, and soon became convinced that
they were the work of one person, and yes
L. g.

will soon have an examination before Justice
buckingham, in Washington.
