The October Elections.


There can be no doubt that Indiana will
vote democratic TO-DAY unless otherwiss con-
trolled BY one or two causes. 1t is barely
possible that the systematic attempt of the
republican leaders to alarm business men
and especially the manufacturers Of Indiana
after having urged the election of Garfield
as free trader in the agricultural districts,
may honestly change the state to the repub.
lcans, but if that cause shall he the potential
factor of the battle, it will be clearly visible
to all. There will be no half way result; no
narrow republican victory by enormous
votes in indianapolis and other cities and
towns where fraud and deputy marshals may
manufacture republican msjorities, but there
will be steady republican gains outside of
the hsunts of crime, where industry and
thrift ASSERT themselves. If that issue shall
control the elections to-dsy; Ohio will give
$4,000 and Indiana from 5000 to 10000 re
publican majority. Tho only other cause
that can make Indiana republican to-
day is the decided preponderance of
republican money and fraud over
Democratic money and fraud,
and it will be evidenced bya nominal major
ity or the possible success OF patt of both
ckets The republicans have expended treb-
the money in InSi,ns the democrats have
expended there. They have the advantage of
the 100, 900 office-holders who were assessed
81, 100000 for party purposes, and in the
greater wealth of their supporters. They
have the additional advantage of the Federal
election laws, with a violent partisan United
States marshal ready to degrade the law to
the protection of crime on one side and to
defeat on the other. Thus in money and
fraud the republicans have the advantage,
but the democrats have initiated them alike
in corruption and fraud to the extent of their
more limited resources. Had both sides per-
mitted the people of Indiana to hold their
own elections in their own honest way, it is
not disputed that the democrats would elect
their ticket to-day by 5000 to 10000
msjority; but now the state is flooded
with money, with colonized voters, with dns.
peradoes, with iusolent partisan election Off
cials, and the peace Of the commonwealth is
seriously imperiled and the election threat
ened with absolute subordination to unblush-
ing crime.

vennor sends to the Albany Argus hi
weather prediction for December as follows:
December will, in all probability, open
with little snow, but the weather will be
cloudy threatening show falls There will
probably be some snow from about the 4th of
the month. With the second quarter of the
month colder weather will probably set in
with falls of snow, but good sleighing need
not be expected until after the middle of the
month. There will be spell of mild weather
about the 18th and 14th. After brief inter-
val of mild weather, during which more snow
will fall, the third quarter of the month will
probably zee clustering and cold weather. The
last quarter of the month will bring mlder
weather, but will terminate probably with
heavy snow falls and stormy weather; in fact
the heaviest snow falls will be toward the end
of the month, and snow blockades may be
looked for, the snow falls extending far to the
southward, possibly as far as Washington
with very stormy weather around New York
and Boston,"

MR.-CoRTHELL's S paper on the employ
ment of teachers, a synopsis of which was
published in our issue of yesterday, contains
many suggestions which deserve careful
consideration by our legislators. Nothing,
it would seem, could be more evident than
that the persons who are responsible for the
work of teachers should have controlling
voice in their selection. When the expert
ment was tried several years ago of placing
the employment of the teachers in the hands
of the committee, the greatest difficulty ex-
perienced arose from the fact that in many
towns the committee were teachers them
selves. Naturally they were partial to their
own qualifications ana proceeded to select
themselves for all the most desirable
schools. The selections were not always
the most desirable and often gave great dis
satisfaction. If committees are to have the
selection of teachers they ought not to be
teachers themselves, or If they are, they
ought not to be allowed to decide on their
own qualifications.

BOSTON HERALD The Senatorial prob
lem in Maine is rendered somewhat easier
of solution by the withdrawal of one of the
foremost candidates. Representative Reed
of the Portland district published card
yesterday, declining longer to be considered
an aspirapt for the place. 1t is fact that,
if Mr.. Reed was removed from the House to
the Senate, it would be an extremely diff
ficult thing for the Republicans to choose
his successor. This argument has been
brought to bear upon him with great force.
Moreover, Mr.. Reed is not man who loves
fight when nothing but personal ends are
at stake, and he will be much happier look
ing on and watching the struggles of Mr..
Frye and Mr.. Hale, and laughing sardonic-
ally at the half-dozen other Leople who, for
some reason or other, think that they are

Mr.. Reed, a good law practice, backed by

any Senatorial possibilities which require
bargaining and bartering, worrying and
fussing, to be turned into certainties.

The Spheric Terror.
An Alarming Discovery on the Streets of
San Francisco.
[san Francisco Evening Post. ]


The other morning two gentlemen were
looking out of the window of house on Mar
ket street, when they observed cabbage roll
off market wagon that was passing. In
stantly over dozen well dressed and appar-
| emily sane persons began yelling after the
| wagon as though the vegetable had been gold
watch or 81 900 bill The driver stopped about
| half square off, looked at the cabbage,
yawned, and drove on.
"What an absurd fuss people in the street
make over trivial occurrences" said one of the
gentlemen. "Now, I'll bet silk hat that
could get crowd of 800 persons around that
cabbage inside of 80 minutes, and yet not leave
this ROOM"
81 take the bet," said his friend, pulling out
his watch. "Are you ready?"
eyes, give the word"
'sIt is now 11.30. Co."
The proposer of the wager led his friend to
the window, threw up the sash, and taking a
cane pointed earnestly at the mud-covered
cabbage with terrified expression. Presently
hack driver noticed the action and began TO
stare at the vegetable from the curbstone;
then a bootblack stopped then bill-poster, a
messenger boy and merchant.
whats the matter?' inquired German,
approaching the innocent base of his national
dish.
Don't touch it, Look out there! Stand
back' shouted the gentleman at the window.
At his horror-stricken tones the crowd fell
back precipitatey and formed dense circle
around the innocent cabbage. Hundreds
came running up and the excitement increased
rapidly.
tLook out therel' frantically screamed the
better, waving his cane. Take that dog
away, quickp"
Several stones were thrown at the cur that
was shifting around the cabbage
''Take care!" said car-driver TO a police
man, who was shouldering his way through
the mass "It's an internal machine, nitro
glycerine--or something"
Meanwhile the sidewalk was blocked, the
street became impossible, women screamed
and rushed into shops, and a store-keeper un-
derneath began to tie q bucket on the end OF a
long pole with which to pour water on this
deyilish invention. The crowd by this time
numbering over 1000 the two gentlemen
moved away from the window and sat down.
In few moments there was hurried tap at
the door, and there appeared a man who had
been sent as a delegate from the mass meeting
outside.
81 should like to know, gentlemeL," he said,
"what the facts are?"
"What factS?"
"Why, what there is peculiar about that
cabbage out there"
Nothing in the world" was the soft reply,
"except that it seems to be surrounded by
about a thousand of the biggest fools in town
Do any thing else for you?'
The man reflected moment, said he
"guessed not" and retired. Before he handed
in his report, however, Capt. Shorts watch
| had dispersed the mob and dubbed 2l1 sepa-
| rate persons for creating disturbance.
