THE DEMOCRATS AND PROTECTION
The Predominant Opinion I'm Indiana.
kansas City Times.l

The Cincinnati Enquirer has taken no little
| pains to ascertain the political sentiment Oh
the people of Indiana touching the Preslden-
cy and the tariff question. 1t sent out 1000
circulars to each county, inquiring for the
sentiment upon these two topics.
| About z, 0o0 answers were received. They
show Mcdonald has the preference OF 5,OS4;
Payne, 953; Tilden, 1876. Payne had the
largest second choice of any candidate. The
Republican preferences show; Blaine, 1928;
Arthur, 1,459; Porter, 1,021; Harrison, SS1 !;
Gresham, 654. These figures indicate that
Indiana will cast her first vote for Mcdonald
in the nominating convention, and secondly
for Payne, and this we take it is about the
average sentiment of that state.
The responses indicate that Blaine is I'M
doubtedly the choice among Republicans, as
he is everywhere else with Republicans. 1t is
safe to say that three-fifths OF the Republic
cans of the United States prefer Blaine to
any other candidate named.
On the tariff question the circulars presen-
ted the following propositions:
First-A tariff for revenue only.
Second-A tariff for protection.
Third-A tariff for revenue so adjusted as
to promote the industries of the country, and
to protect the interests of labor without Gre
ating monopolies.
And the responses were as follows:
for NO. l.-.... ..............-.. oo9
for NO. q. OIL
For No. 3 I, 344
The Enquirer comments as follows:
The most important result obtained from
these inquiries is the feeling in regard to the
tariff 1t has been claimed that while the
manufacturers and their employees in the
cities were favorable to a protective tariff,
the agricultural element favored or inclined
toward free trade. Over 1000 Of the answers
received have been from gentlemen in the
country or small towns. l do not think that
any one of them in expressing his opinion
on the tariff did it with any idea of its bear
ing upon the coming political campaign.
On the first proposition the Democracy lost
Indiana in 1880. On the third proposition
they carried the state in 1882 by 10000 ma
jority. The "Ohio idee' of 1883 is really the
Indiana proposition of 1882.

N. P. FREIGHT RATES.
Minneapolis Calls Oh st. Paul to Unite
in a Kick.

A committee of the Minneapolis board of
trade came down yesterday to get st. Paul
business men to unite with them in appeal
ing to President Harris, of the Northern
Pacific, relative to freight rates.
Messrs. Farwell, Kelly, Hackett and A. e..
Lindeke, representing the ST. Paul jobbers,
conferred with them, and suggested that
Vice President Cakes should first be called
upon. This was assented to, and a call will
be made on him by the joint committee of
the two cities this afternoon.
1t appears, however, that the Minneapolis
people appealed to President Harris direct,
and the following Associated press telegram
came last night:
NEW YORK, March 1S.-Robert Harris,
president of the Northern Pacific, says re
specting the resolution of the Minneapolis
board of trade, that he had telegraphed Vice
President Cakes to give the matter com
planned of every consideration and do what
was advisable.

ALMOST A TRAGEDY.
The Foolish Handling of Revolver
Dnc,I,Irn In P11noIron


At 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon the pedes-
TRANS at the corner of Third and Jackson
streets were startled by the sharp crack Of a
revolver, directly after which John Dean, a
driver for Shirk, the livery dealer, fell from
his hack and the horses attached to the vehi-
Gle started at a fearful rate of speed up Third
street.
An immense crowd gathered on the corner
and several men went to the relief of Dean,
whom all thought had been shot. 1t was
found, however, that he had only been
shocked, and that he had fallen from the
hack just as the horses started up. Atten-
ton was then turned to the
team which passed up Third street
in quick order until Minnesota street
was reached when the hack came in contact
with lamp post. The latter gave way to
the collision, and the letter box attachment
was completely pied, the contents being
scattered in all directions. The hack
was also damaged by the collis-
ion the rear wheels being smashed.
The shock was such as to bring the team to a
halt and they were captured at Cedar street.
An investigation into the origin of the
affair showed that candy "butcher" on one
of the railroads was in the act of showing
Dean his revolver when the weapon went off.
Officer Call put both Dean and Ross, the
possesser of the revolver, under arrest, but
as it was shown that the affair was entirely
accidental, they were released.
1t was reported last night, by parties who
claim to be conversant with the true inward
ness of the case, that the shot was fired in
tentionally and only missed the mark in
tended by accident,

close from q to NC lower than Monday. Mil
YANKEE followed to the same degree, oats were
dull an %@Bc lower, and pork declined sore.
Corn on the other uhand was firm

from the opening the stock market was firm, and
continued so with very little weakening, closing
with the general list perceptibly higher. The
exceptions were Oregon Short Line, which de-
clined per cent, and Oregon Navigation, per
cent. Government bonds were steady and rail-
roads firm and higher. Mining stock was active
and generally lower.
