CINCINNATI, October 5.-A special to the
Enquirer from Columbus, says: The Re-
Publicans are at the present juncture in a
pocket They are out Of money, and their
only consolation is that the Democratic
Committee is also dead broke" After
conducting Q canvass for three months the
treasury is empty at the very time that
money counts most in an election. The
long pull has not only exhausted the funds
but also the energy. The Republicans are,
however now trembling lest their work
is all in vain. For several days agents
have been pouring in from the country
wanting to know Of Foster, 0glsvie, Don
aldsOn and others whether they were sim
cerely in favor Of the Second Amendment
or whether the reports were true that they
were knitting the
"Non-PartIsan Movement,
OF course this was a sumner, and the an
swer was suited to the man. The Rspubli-
can leaders have seen for some time that if
the demonstrations of the crusade were car
ried 10 the polls in the cities there would
be q stampede for the Democratic ticket.
They have been, therefore, saying TO the
Second Amenumentites that the singing
and praying of the women and children
about the voting precincts would hurt their
own cause; but fanatical movements are
not governed by advice or reason, and the
sgirstors will have their way, let the result
be what it may. 1t is pretty evident now
that the cities will fix the Second Amend
ment. The Republicans are put in the role
cf double dealing in this respect, and they
are likely to be
Slaughtered by Both SIdes

standard bearer, feels il, and is in trouble.

RICHMOND, Va, October g. Malone
made a speech at Zuni, Southampton
county, to-day. The occasion was Coali-
tion barbecue and oyster roast, which had
been extensively advertised for weeks past.
The meeting was largely attended by white
and black Coalitionists from this and sur
rounding counties. Ex.Congressman De.
zendorf, who has been making it lively for
Malone in this State, announced some
time sgo that he would be present at Zuni
to-day and tell Malone to his face that he
had sold out to the Republican party in the
Senate in consideration of the bestowal
upon him Of the
Federal Patronage in this State.
Tezendorf claims that resident Arthur
some time back admitted as much to HIM.
For some reason the ex-Congressman dlu
not put in an appearance to-day, but may
meet Malone later in the canvass. Ma
hone spoke for nearly three hours. HIS
remarks were con fined almost entirely TO
State matters. He spent much of his time
IN explaining TO the negroes the Dement'S
bestowed upon their race by the Coalition.
lists. Most of his speech was male up OF
statements on issues already threa Id are in
ibis State. He seemed purpos ely to refrain
from touching upon national polltlcs ana
questions. He commended Arthur's ad
mipistration for its liberal treatment OF the
State.

good effect against the Mahoneites in the
May election in Southampton, as well as
several other large negro counties a1Ioin'

murder OF one of their race and left Ma
hone in troops. On Monday night Sam
Prescott, a colored Coalition leader, shot
and killed Straighout negro named Pres

in Southampton county. The murder has

Great Estates in Mexico.

Much has been said and written of the great
extent and large possibilities of the Mexican
haciendas. But probably few people in the
United States even yet realize the extent of
some OF these tracts of land, where 200. 900 or
100000 acres often constitute Il single estate
in the hands of one owner There are many
such estates in Mexico large enough to awaken
the envy of many a land proprietor in the Pa
citc coast states of the Union. These are to be
found in many Of the central and northern states
Of Mexico. The famous Salado ranch, for ex-
ample, contains over 600 square miles of land.
II lies partly in the states of NueyO, Leon
Coahuila, Zacatecas and San Luis Potos on the
Highway to Mexico, and on the lines of the new
railroad. 1t occupies the central table lands of
Mexico, ut an average elevation of 4 900 feet
IN mineral wealth. The boundaries of the es-
tate extend more than 100 miles from north to
south, and Furnishing farms and large mining
towns are met at frequent intervals.

Ex-Governor Plaisted's paper finds a subject
for homily upon extravaganza and thrust at
wealth in the late Vanderbilt fancy ball. Now
the extravaganza of the rich is the poor mans
opportunity. 1t is way in which their ac-
cumulated thousands run back into the hands
of the poor. 1t is legitimate process of dis
tributins their property among their needy and
industrious neighbors, of which no sensible
person will complain. The $4,000 expended
by Vanderbilt was paid out to tailors, seam
stresses. milliners, carpenters, florists, paint
ers. cooks, butchers, farmers and others, who
would rejoice if such ball would occur every
evening among the rich of New York. One
generous rich man, who puts his money in cir
culation, is worth more to the poor than an
army of demagogues whose occupation is to stir
up strife between the rich and poor. kenne-
