WAR Predictions.
A Vague Feeling that France Is On the
Verge of Another Revolution.

Vague Feeling that France Is On the
Verge of Another Revolution.
Pail Mall Gazette.
An Englishman who recently returned
from Paris, where he met several of the lead
ers OF French Social Democrats, said that he
found very general, among the working
classes especially, a vague feeling that France
was within a short distance of a revolution
The united efforts of the Bonapartists Mon
archists, and Anarchists, it was believed,
would result before long in general upset
As for the working men themselves there
was a singular Indifference to the form of
government. Another widespread feeling
among the Partisan ouvriers was that war
with Germany was imminent; they did not
exactly know how, but they believed that
France would attack her former conquerer
and be soundly beaten. A curious
ly fatalistic feeling prevailed among
them, which could neither be accounted
for nor explained away. Some alarming ar
ticles are just now appearing in the German
press with regard to the prospect of war
with France; and no one who reflects on
the relations between the German press and
the government will fail to recognize their
Importance. The worst is that which the
Cologne Gazette one of the most influential
papers in Germany, published on the 9th
inst, in reply to the well-known writer
"Ignotus," of the Paris Figaro. "Ignotus"
had been giving his impressions of visit to
Germany, and his conclusions were that the
irritation against France was bitter and gem
eral; that the government and especially
Prince Bismarck, were fostering it; and that
the German press was deliberately accentu-
ating it. The Cologne Gazette answers as
follows: YES after incessant insults and
provocations the German nation has become
possessed with feeling of profound exas-
peration. 1t is persuaded that France does
not wish that it should attain state of tran
quillity. The hope that the antagonism of
the wounds of the late war would gradually
heal is almost totally vanished. Conse-
quently, our people are penetrated with the
idea that, since the bloody struggle is newt
able, it were better that it came as soon as
possible, especially as the present condition
of Germany is as favorable as could, be
wished" 1t is no wonder that such plain
speaking is causing alarm in Paris. Will it
have any effect, we wonder, on the Tonquin
votes? 1t may be interesting to state as an
instance of the costlness of modern war
that the total ascertained expenditure of
France upon the war on which she entered
with light heart in August, 1870, is now
declared to be f341 ,440,0 900. AS the war
began in August and ended in January this
makes the cost to France of her march to
Berlin almost exactly two millions a day,
without counting the permanent loss of two
OF her wealthiest provinces.

Interview with Hon. John f.. Lamb
Washington Special.
Representative Lamo, of the Terre Haute
district, arrived here this morning. A re-
porter met him at Mr.. RandalPs headquar
ters, where he announced himself as for Ran
dali for Speaker. Being asked why he
favored Randalrs candidacy, Mr.. Lamb re-
piled:
1.-THE Democracy of my district and, I be-
lieve, great majority of the people of the
State, desire his election. He has twice been
Speaker of the House when the Democratic
party was in the majority, and gave entire
satisfaction to the people, regardless of
party"
What effect will Mr.. Randalps election
have on the election in Indiana next year?'
asked the reporter.
"His record as an economist in all the de-
partments of public affairs when he was
Speaker before is a guarantee that he will
pursue the same course in the future; and if
the coming session of Congress under his adj
ministration, as I believe it would, brings
about great reduction in the expenditures
of the administration of the government in
all its departments, this, in my judgment, will
conduce more toward Democratic success in
1884 than any thing else that this Congress
can do. Besides, it is we'll understood that
Randall is conservative upon the tariff ques-
tion and is opposed to any hurried or un-
wise legislation upon that subject. He is
especially opposed to any agitation of the
question this winter, because of the fact
that, no matter what bill might be passed by
the House, it would be pigeon-holed by the
finance committee of the Senate; or, even if
passed by the Senate would be vetoed by a
Republican President"
How are the Democracy of Indiana on
the tariff question:
81 can only say that in supporting Randall
l stand upon the tariff platform Of the Indi-
ana Democracy of 1882, upon which | was
elected which, in substance, says that the
Democracy are in favor 0f a tarifffor revenue,
so levied as to give protection to American
labor. The best Endorsement that this plat
form has had since that time is the fact that
the Democracy of Ohio, Pennsylvania, New
Jersey, North Carolina and Virginia made
their fights this year successfully upon the
same platform in substance. If Randall is
elected Speaker, with a fair candidate for
President, we can carry Indiana next fall
with majority of $4,000"
How many votes will Mr.. Randall receive
in the Indiana delegation"
Notwithstanding all the talk that has
been heard here, Mr.. Randall will receive not
less than three, and perhaps five, votes from
Indiana"
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1883-11-30

the Democratic nomination for President.
The Democrats of Indiana want to elect a
Democratic President, and they wish a
Speaker elected who will help attain that
end. Just at present the choice of the right
man for Speaker seems to be the most inn
pOrtant business on hand"

tated the tariff question considerably. The

qulrer, hasn't had much to say regarding the
tariff There are many other questions in
which the Indiana Democracy is concerned,

MIR. LOWELL'S RECTORSHIP.
The Law Prevents His Holding the Posi-

The Law Prevents His Holding the Posi-
ton, and He Is Asked to Withdraw
LONDON, Nov 29-The Fifeshire Journal
says: Some time ago Earl Selborn, Lord
High Chancellor, wrote letter to students,
stating that there was no law by which Mr..
Lowell could act as lord rector of st. An
drew's University. The letter has been sup
pressed until now Mr., Lowell has been
asked to withdraw from the rectorship. The
students have prepared a letter expressing
regret at his withdrawal and admiration of
his brilliant literary attainments. Another
election will be held soon. Bishop Words
worth will probably be a candidate"

Mr.. Lowell has been asked to withdraw from

BLAINE'S SCHEME.


New York, Nov. 29.-rhe Herald says
edtorially: Mr. Blaine thinks that the sur
plus revenue collected by the government
ought not to be distributed among the States,
but believes that the income from the tax on
distilled spirits might be SO disposed Of As
the only valid reason for touching the inter
nal revenue system is its corrupting infiu-
ence in politics. which many believe to be
such as to demand its total abolition it is
difficult to see why Mr.. Blaine's proposition,
involving as it does maintenance of the ma
chnery, is not worse than the Pennsylvania
distribution scheme. His letter makes curl
Gus reading. By the way, is Mr. Blaine bid
ding for the presidency"
The Times says The most serious objec-
ton to Mr. Blaine's plan is that it would be
difficult to find any justification for it in the
constitution of the United States. Nowhere
in that venerable and doubtless venerated
instrument can we find any grant of power
to Congress to levy taxes for State purposes
That surplus accumulated unintentionallv
may be misapplied. has at least a precedent
to sustain it, but that taxes can be deiber-
ately levied to be turned over to State treas
urieS and to be expended entirely without
the direction or supervision OF Congress or
the federal government, according to the
whim OF the respective State Legislatures, is
a doctrine which would require all the logic
of Mr.. Blaine, and perhaps more than even
an authority as an expOunder of the consti-
tuition, to sustain. Minor objections will
suggest themselves. 1t would be diff
cult, for instance, to persuade the
people in Illinois that the enormous tax on
spirits collected in their State, should, with
fairness OF propriety, be turned into the
treasures of Pennsylvania or Massachusetts
and there are other difficulties which it is
not necessary to mention. To counterbal-
ance these there is only the suggestion which
Mr.. Blaine did not render it necessary to
make to the Pennsylvania paper that every
dollar turned from the federal treasury forti-
fes the high tariff"
The Worlds editorial says: Mr. Blaine
opposes the distribution OF the surplus reve-
nue. among the States, but proposes that the
internal revenue receipts shall be so dlstribu-
ted. This, he says, would reduce the reve-
nues of the federal government and would
relieve the burden Oh real estate from State
taxation But why not relieve real estate
by State and local tax on incomes, keep
the internal revenue receipts in the federal
treasury, and lessen the burden on consum-
ers of tea, sugar and coffee, and all the neces-
Saries OF Nfe.n

statements as to Mr.. Tilden's candidacy and
his connection with Mr.. Randall in the con-
test for the sOeakership:
"The hackers of Mr. Randall have fled once

into the contest. I can say positively, and
of my own knowledge, that Mr.. Tilden is as
irreconcilably opposed to the old ticket as he
was last summer. He would not go to Wash

cept the nomination. Those who connect his
name with the presidency merely display
their own ignorance, or worse. 1 do not be-

PARIS, Nov, 29- pacific solution of the
Toncuin question is now regarded possible,
England is using her influence with France
and China for peaceable settlement.
The cabinet council to-day decided not to
accept an Interpolation from Clemenceau
concerning the Chinese memorandum rela-
tive to the proposed attack on Bacninh, be-
cause it would prejudice pending negotia-
tions.
In the Chamber of Deputies, Clemenceau
introduced his Interpolation, and urged i'm
mediate discussion.
Ferry moved that the debate be postponed
until the Tonquin credits were discussed.
He added that China's reply to Frances note
was expected momentarily. The Chamber,
by vote of 308 to 1876, adopted Ferry's mo-
ton.
1t is rumored that Admiral Courbet has
telegraphed the government from Tonquin

WASHINGTON, Nov. 9-Representatiye
Keifer has been asked, both by specials and
by the Associated Press, for his letter to Mr..
Phelps. Thus far he has declined to furnish
it for an earlier date than Saturday This is
another way of saying that he does not care
to place it before the public before the meet
ing of the Republican caucus. It has been
ascertained that the letter of Mr., Phelps to
General Keifer was not marked confidential,
and that there is no reason why he should
withhold it, As to his own letter. it is long,
and is very full defense of all the methods
as Speaker for which he has been so sharply
arraigned by the Republican press In addi-
tion, he makes sharp counter attack on the
newspapers, which, if reports here are cor
rect, is about in the same style of the one
with which he closed his career us Speaker.
The fact that he insists upon holding his
letter from members and the press till an
hour when it could not affect caucus action
is affecting members unfavorably, as they
say they do not care to vote for General
Keller upon even probability that they
may be called upon to repent it when his al
legged screed to Mr.. Phelps appears in print.
