Wheeling Sunday register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1882-1934, 1884-11-09

Great excitement still prevsih here Inc
thing began boiling on Tuesday night aad
has been red hot ever since. Fron morn
ing till night the streets have presented
lively appearance. One Or two nights It
was carried for into the pight-in tact oil
night 1t surpasses the result Of all fosne
elections. The oldest inhabitant never saw
ANYTHING Ike II. The scenes here were
never surpassed. No event has equsiled it.
Intense interest has been manifested by Peo
pie of all ages, sexes, colors, creeds and
nationalities. Nothing is talked OF or
thought of save this remarkable election.
a, the breakfasttable, the dinner table, the
supper table, the Preside, on the street cor
ners, in the stores, barber shops, SALOONS,
factories, at the schools, and every other
place, election is on the lips of everybody,
all excited more or less. Business
been suspended to great exten, and al
most the entire attention OF our people Is
given TO the recent election and Its result.
Some linper about anxious to hear some
Thing concerning the result, some converse
about it in good nstured way, others ex.
citedly aud. many communistically. Both
sides appear to think that their man is ell
ected, the Democrats, if anything, most
confident, and feeling OF bitterness pre-
walls. Men, women aud children are
worked I'D to fever heat. Much warlike
talk is heard. Occasionally couple OF
men, and sometimes women, indulge IN
war of words, but thus far no bloed has been
spilled on either side. Our people wish the
question was settled and the man elected
rightfully inaugurated without any
trouble, but many fear trouble.
TO SHOW TIE FEELISG
of our people on the matter, the language
of respectable young man is appended be-
low: by ~ viii stick to Blaine as
long as there is q drop of blood in my body.
He meant If Blaine was elected. The
writer has heard many similar remarks
made by both parties and all appeared to
mean business. The Democrats declare
thew were robbed of the Presidency in &c,
but will not permit i; this time il Cleveland
is elected. Yesterday and Friday the re-
turns indicated Clevelands election and the
Democrats smiled all over, while the aver
age Republican was down, in the mouth,
but bad not given up hopes. Up till last
night even bets were still made on the
general result. Quite a number, mostly
'fves' and "tenners, were offered and
taken during the day. Occasionally odds
we're offered on Cleveland
tbs STILL AMUSING
10 see the condition Of affairs. In every
part of town both parties display national
coIors, one shouting for Blaine aud the
Other Cleveland When our people retired
Friday night the news indicated that
Cleveland was on top. Yesterday morning
;lout 2 o clock some person or persons
came over from Wheeling and started the
II port that Blaine was elected and that
German conceded his election. The ferry,
beat Gilman" began iooling It's whistle oil
a regular fire alarm nature and kept this
up for nearly an hour, stopping occasionally
,or few minutes, running over
20 the other side, then return
ing, all the time blowing the whistle
This reused the entire population, hundreds
appearing on the streets in q very few min
utes and drum corps ard large crowd
Cf Republicans were parading the streets
shouting jubilantly for Blaine. In every
Tart oftown stores we're opened and illumi
rated, Chinese lanterns and Rags were put
M. red Gre was burned, fireworks displayed
and the Republicans were
oNrE MORE ENTHUSIASTIC,
thinking there had won the National VIC
tory. The footing Of the ferryboat whistle
| The beating Of drums and the yelling Of the
Republicans brought out large portion OIL
our people and the streets presented live
| " appearance. The Republicans shouted
| 10 their hearts content and everybody be
ieved Blaine was certainly elected. The
| REGISTER appeared at half past five with il
big rooster growing louder than ever. The
intelligencer appeared, as usual on the six
click train without single coon or bird
The papers caused change in the condi'
ton of affairs. The REGISTER chilled the n
and the Intelligeucer psralyzed them. Their
faces again heightened and the Democrats
were happier than ever. During the entire
day and evening the Democrat:
had the laugh on them. The
Climax" is responsible for the hoax
