Woman Sufrage in Oregon.

Oregon is falling into line on the ques-
tion of woman suffrage. The Legislature
of the State began the battle two years
ago by passing resolution to amend the
constitution so as to allow women to vote.
The present General Assembly has Just
ratified its action. The next step will be
the submission of the proposition to the
people. If the amendment shall be
adopted Oregon will have the honor of
being the first State in the Union to
admit woman to full and equal suffrage
in the election of officers for all the de-
partments cf its government. 1t may
seem surprising that an experiment of
this kind should be first attempted in a
region which is on the skirmish line of
civilization; but it should not be forgot
ten that two hundred years or so ago an
experiment in government which the
world covered with ridicule was tried on
the New England coast. 1t may be Ore
gon is the New England of the nineteenth
century.-N Y. Herald. I4Fa

A Political Parallel.

Z Martin A. Foran. Cougrpssman-elect
from the Cleveland District. has a clever
way OF putting things, as witness the fol-
lowing from his Detroit speech to an au-
dienceof 1000 or 5000 composed OF fel-
low workingmen:
John Sherman was one of the visiting
statesmen. He went down South. and on
his way home to Washington he stopped
at Columbus and saw Brother Ruther-
ford, and he told him about the wicked
people OF the South. how they had used
intimidation. and Mr.. Hayes undoubted-
" said: "0h, the Lord will punish these
people. God will punish the South" /
can imagine that John the Evangelist re-
piled to him as did a Hebrew to another
Hebrew friend. Two Hebrews in the
City of New York who had gotten
wealthy by judicious economy and mis-
erly habits Of saving perhaps-and no
man can get wealthy unless he is pretty
close, unless he has some money to start
with. these two Hebrews met on the street
one day and one said to the other: "Let
us go and have dinner and jubilee over
our success in business matters. and in
life generally" So they went down to
Delmonico's and they ordered dinner,
and they wined and they dined and they
ate to safety, and then they got up and
paid their bill, and the amount Of the
bill was $l7.34. There was little mur-
muring. but the guileless children OF
Israel paid the bill. did not say a word
until they got up near the park, and then
one said to the other: Hermann, oh
those wicked Delmonicos! God will pun
ish those wicked Delmonicos." And then
the other said: Jacob, the Lord has
punished those Delmonicos, for / have
got their silver spoons in my pocket"
can imagine John the Evangelist saying
to Mr.. Hayes: 30. the wicked South,
and Hayes saying to him: "John, God
will punish the South" and John saying
to Rutherford: "God has punished the
South, for i have got the votes of Louisi-
ana in my pocket" They counted in a
Democratic Governor by the same vote;
and the same ballots that they counted
in Republican President.

What a News Correspondent Has to
Say Of His Arrest by the British Gov
mt
Especial Dispatch to the Enquirer. j

PHILADELPHIA, October 27.-Henry
George, correspondent Of the Irish
World, who was arrested in Ireland last
August, returned to this city last night.
He says that there is lull in Ireland at
present. He gave as his opinion that the
outrages committed in that country do not
emanate from the regular organizations,
but from the people generally, who are
opposed by certain men. 1.-THE people
OF neighborhood," he said, when they
find themselves ilI-treated and oppressed
by q landlord. or some other individual,
meet in secret conclave and 60 through
the form of q trial without the presence
of the defendant. After finding him
guilty the outrage is committed. This
may seem unjust, but it is as the farce of
trial that suspect has. The newspa-
pers make these outrages appear much
worse than they really are! During my
travels in Ireland found the country in
q much more peaceable state than is
generally represented.n #a,8
Mr.. George stated that he intended to
visit Mr.. Frelinghuysen on Friday, and
that if possible he would bring a claim
against England for the indignities
heaped upon him by her officials during
his presence in Ireland. HA7 I

PROSPECT FOR DEMOCRATIC AS
CENDENCY.
History Will Repeat Itself, and the
Republican Party Break in Two.
Especial dispatch to the Enquirer.l

t~EN~~Tr
COLUMBUS, o., October 30.-It is quite
noticeable that all the Democratic visi-
tors are talking on the future Of the
party. while the Republicans have little
to say, except that the legislation this
winter will provide for submitting a con-
stitutional amendment, and that the tenn
perance issue will be made squarely in
the campaign of next summer.
Representative Marsh, of Mercer,
was here most of last week, and he
thinks the time has come for the perma.
nent ascendency of Democracy. He is
| in favor Of bringing out men who have
no flaws in their record. but who have
been bred and reared in Democracy He
thinks there is golden medium between
the old bosses and barnacles and the new
converts. aq oif M ~ lt
4 Ex.State Senator b. w. Carlisle, of
Fairfield, is here to-day, flushed with'the
prospects of Democracy for the future.
He believes in coalition with all liberal
and disgusted Republicans, and says he
is using all his influence to prevent the
recent victory being made offensive to
Republicans. Carlisle feels confident
that Ohio, Indiana, Pennsylvania and
New York are now Democratic States.
He has a fine theory OF the disafection
in the Republican party, and compares il
to the the condition OF the Democrats in
| 1860, when they had two candidates for
the Presidency. He says the fight be-
tween the Half Breeds and the Stalwarts
now is worse than was that between the
Democrats when they ran both Douglas
and Breckenridge for the Presidency. He
thinks the signs of the times point to the
going down of the Republicans in the
same manner, and says that he recently
met a prominent man in Illinois who
: was readyto wager that there would be
two Republican tickets in 1884; that the
Stalwart one would be Conkling. of New
York, and Filley; of Missouri, and thai
of the Half-Breeds Blaine, of Maine, and
Foster, of Ohio. at
At the Chicago Convention the two
factions compromised by putting Gar.
field on the ticket to represent the Half
Breeds and Arthur for the Stalwarts, bu
, it is quite likely that they will never pull
together that way again. One or th'
other will get both places, and then tht
other faction will bolt for ticket o
their own making, all of which will worl
together for the best interests Of tn
dawn OF the new era of Democracy.

The Rising Cloud In Frnce.

NEW YORK, October 29.-Ihe following
is from the Worlds cable letter:
LONDON, October 2S.-The news which
has been received here during the last
few days from various parts of France
not alone by the newspapers, but as we'll
by private people whose correspondents
have no excuse for being sensational,
seems to afford ground for the belief that
serious events are impending in your sis
ter republic,
The Socialists have been working there
for some months past, preparing in dark
ness and silence for an outbreak, and it
is supposed that, the outrages that have
been perpetrated at Montceaules Mines
will again be repeated in various parts of
the country, and in all likelihood upon a
larger scale, with the probable result Of
driving NJ. Grevy from the Presidency,
and restoring Gambetta to actual, per-
haps elevating him to nominal power as
well, as the only possible savior of society,
his old role.
The French Chambers are altogether
too weak to deal with such crisis as is,
apparently. about to be precipitated upon
them, and public confidence in the
Duclerq ministry is about gone.
That is to say, what little public conf.
dence may have been inspired by the for
nation of Cabinet which American
politicians would describe as ''good
enough Morgan, until after the vaca'
tions."
At all events. in official quarters here
it is anticipated that the return of Gam.
beta to the foremost place in French
politics and the open responsibilities of
power can not be long delayed.
The SUMS cable letter says:
The leading topic of the week was al
| first the opening of Parliament, but pub
| lie attention has been rapidly drawn
away to France and the grave disturban
ces at Lyons and Montceaules Mines.
The official note of the Government
issued yesterday has not had the effect
OF calming the public mind, and it is ap
parent that the organization is wide
spread and most effective in its workings
and that it can, as Paris Journal sale
yesterday, produce from its headquarters
on the banks of Lake Geneva, explosions

How the widow and the Orphan are
Robbed to Swell the Republican Cor
ruption Fund. ln H.f.r

wAsHNGroS. October 27.-The follow
ing circumstances has just come to light
and illustrates in a most forcible manner
the infamous methods by which the Re
publican leaders are trying to save their
party from a well deserved defeat and
overthrow. A lady whose husband died a
year or two ago, leaving her with six
children all under twelve years Of age,
and no property whatever. was so fortu-
nate as TO get $500 position in one Of the
departments of this city. On this salary
she is trying hard to bring up her family
respectable, for she is a woman Of sub
stantiaI worth AMI refined tastes, always
accustomed to good society. Last week
this widowed mother received a peremp-
tory demand for S45 to be used in a state
campaign. The demand came from an
alleged statesman who is high in favor
with the administration. 1t was couched
in terms that brooked no denial. The
lady went to a broker. hired the money
at five per cent. a month-which is but
half the usual rate in such cases-and
paid the $45 over to the agent of the
statesman who demanded it, This is no
exceptional case. There are scores Just
like it. That many of these poor victims
of Hubbell and the Republican machine
will suffer for the necessaries of life be-
fore the winter is over, is needless to say.
