Two men, who have been working for
The government on the Mississippi leyee,
gpt Into row at Herbert's saloon about 8
o'clock last night. One of them, after be-
ing knocked down, went out and then re-
urni & with knife cut his ass,iliut, giv-
'n5 him a very ugly cut across the face
srVrIing one or two arteries. The wound
WAS sewcd up by DR.. Parker and is not
likely to prove dangerous.
That the managers Of Mr.. Blainu' can
vass have been laying plans to capture the
vote OF New York by fair or foul means,
there is no longer question. But they
will MT succeed. The hour when such
men rs Sieve EIkins and his helpers could
manipulate the vote of n state at will has
forever passed in tins country. The people
are on top and will not suffer themselves to
be delrauded out OF an honest and fairly
won victory.

Reporter says; "No rooster, blu; the great
American eagle himself, graces our col.

and wide over the broad land which. in
the expressive language of Honlprson's
great orator, Brown, last Monday night,

We hear that Larry Ulan, independent
candidate for reelection to the office Of cir

GRITTY and consisting largely Of negro voters,
Larry must have been not only an excellent

The unkindest cut of all, the Chicago
Tribune is responsible for the following: ,
If Cleveland has carried New York Conk- c
Ing alone has thrown enough votes to him q
n Oneida county to make up more than i
lis majority, This is Conklng's return to '
he republican party for all the honors it {
las heaped upon him, and this is the way {

malicious treachery will cause many people |
again to Leeve that he inspired Guiteau to |

Mr., Blaine, after his nomination by the
republican convention at Chicago, wrote a
very long letter OF acceptance in which he '
freely INDUCED in concilliating language
towards the southern states and people, and
in his subsequent canvass and speeches he
pursued the same course until after the
state election in West Virginia, the state
going democratic by moderate majority
only it was yet quite sufficient to irritate
and induce him to bring forth the sangui-
nary garment and give it big shake. This
was sad mistake on his part but il served
to show whs: sort of man he is. The peo-
pie have shown that they do not appreciate
his efforts to stir up bad blood to revive old
animosities by appealing to the worst ele-
ments in human nature, 1t ia no safe man
or statesmanlike to seek to open old wounds
instead of pouring oil upon them and thus
closing them forever. In some of his re.
cent ut.erances he has exhibited the same
narrow sechonalism, but Mr.. Blaine has
mistaken the temper Of the people rs shown
by the effect of his speeches in Indiana:
"Wherevcr Mr. Blaine spoke 10 Indiana the
democrats made heavy gains He waved
the bloody shirt at Fort Wayne, the demo.
cratic gain was 1900; at lndianapols it
was 1905 South Bend, ZOO; at Terre
