With his great capacities Mr., Blaine has
faults plain to see. We can never expect u
man or a creed beyond Gritcsmi but respon-
sibility always steadies man, and party
creed in national affairs is always subject to
the wise adjustment of tho occasion. An
aspirant may indulge in many theories, but
president of ability, tho elect of n party OF
great achievements and splendid history, tho
executive Of u prosperous, peaceful, and
proud nation, is bound to follow tho sound
maxms of conservative aud steady policy.
Tho arguments against Mr.. Blaine's candi-
dacy are answered by tho tremendous on
thusiasm that has borne him TO his position.
We have not TO deal with an unknown man
or an unknown cause.

sEPTRNBER WEATHER.

PROF. Shows report is as follows:
This month was remarkable for its
high mean temperature and extraor-
binary rainfall. Its mean tempera-
ture exceeded that of every other Sep
tember in the past sixteen years ex-
cept in 1881. Its rainfall was three
times the average for the month, and
nearly three inches greater than that
of any previous September. Except
ing June, 1875, which produced 12.11
inches of rain, it was the rainiest
month of any name upon our seven
teen years record. There were two
days in this month which registered
over three inches of rain, there having
previously been but five such days in
the entire period of our observation
The month has been entirely free from
frost, and the immense corn crop of
Kansas is already well ripened in most
localities.
RAINFALL-9.15 inches, which is
6.07 inches above the September aver
age. Rain fell on eight days. On the
23d three inches fell in two hours,
which is the heaviest rain in the same
time on our record. There were five
thunder storms. The entire rainfall
for the nine months of 1884 now COM
pleted has been 1896 inches, which is
9.S7 inches above the average for the
same months in the preceding sixteen

Mr.. Blaine IL a remarkable favorite

fact, SO great is the charm of success

In 1876, thirteen men comprised the
entire working force used in the manu-
facture of the james Boss Gold Watch Case.
Now over fre hundred are employed, and the
number is constantly increasing. Therea-
son of this increase is this: In the james
Boss Gold Watch Case all the metal in sight
and subject to wear is solid GOLD, while there

AT TOLEDO.
Interest Manifested Over the Elec-
ton.

TOLEDO, October l4.-Never in the
history of Toledo has there been so much
interest in an election as to-day. Within
half an hour after the polls opened hun
dreds of voters, chiefly laboring men, were
casting their ballots, and at 9 O'Clock fully
one-half of the vote of the city had been
cast. Predictions were made on the previ-
Gus night hat there would be trouble and
disorder on the morrow, so intense was
feeling. But the result has been emf
nently satisfactory to all.
In the Fourth Ward, the home of all
the worst criminals in the city, four or
five fights occurred, but no one was Sc
riously injured. Both Republicans and
Democrats had made every preparation
to prevent fraudulent voting and the
result has been satisfactory beyond their
most sanguine hopes. At noon a two
thirds vote had been cast and it became
evident that every voter was out and
working. One feature was the large num-
Der of vest pocket votes cast. These
were mostly voted by Democrats and in
consequence the Republicans were happy.
The effect of this was counteracted by
the effect hat Robinson and johnson
were falling behind the rest of the vote
Many Germans were supposed to be cut.
ting the head of the ticket on account o.
the action ofthe saloon keepers. Through
out the day Democrats have been conf
dent of success and even up to 9 O'Clock
in the evening predicted Robinson's de
feat. The Congressional fight has beer
paramount in interest to the State ticke
with many and the result promises to b
more OF a surprise than the results OF thu
rest of the ticket, the vote for Romei
(Rep.) for Congress being ever large
than anticipated by his most sanguin'
friends.

THE STATE CAPITAL.
Last Night and Yesterday in Col
umbus.

COLUMBUS, October IA The election
here passed off in comparative quiet there
being but few disturbances and those were
due to the appointment of special police
by the Republican Mayor and Deputies
by the Democratic Sheriff. In one pre-
cinct there was a conflict of authority re-
s~ulting in the arrest of a Deputy Sheriff
by the police. There was Il sharp fight
for the organization of the polls, the
number of citizens turning out being I'M
precedented. Bands and drum corps pa
raded the streets at daYbreak awakening
voters. The vote was the heaviest ever
polled in the city. The Republicans have
City Hall and the Democrats have head
quarters at the Franklin County Club.
The Republicans are wild with enthusi-
asm parading the streets in crowds while
the famous Blaine and Logan Club is
singing in City Hall, which is packed in
every part. A fence has been built on the
stage to protect the committee from the
pressure of the crowd who are cheering so
loudly they can be heard all over the city.
At the Democratic headquarters there
is not so much enthusiasm. The Hall is
much smaller than the Republicans but
is packed, while hundreds are coming and
going. There is very little cheering, but
the mass of the people have not given up
all hope. On the streets there are no col
lisions or disturbances. Everything is
passing off good-naturedly.
The noise of the enthused Republicans
on the street is becoming almost internal.
The air is filed with rockets of all shades
and colors and nearly every combustible
substance has been brought into use. The
Democrats have retired from their head
quarters and those who have not retired
to their beds are watching the Republican
torchlight procession and listening to the
DESCENDANT sounds that rend the heavens,
all having the purpose of clarifying the
man from Maine.
The Democrats are hoping for favorable
returns from Butler, Mercer, Monroe,
Licking and their strong Democratic
counties, so as to keep the Republican ma
jority below 20, 900. Seven hundred and
sixty-fye wards and precincts show a net
Democratic gain of 1856 over the vote for
Secretary of State in 1880; the same
wards and precincts show a net Republi-
can gain of II, 969 over the vote for Gov
ernor in 1888.

Every lover of the weed knows that
there is no cigar equal to those of Havana,
and that the fresher they are the better.
Realizing this, the firm of Idelman Bros.
some time ago began 10 make their own
importations. The steamer City OF
Washington, which arrived in New York
on September "a, brought them an in
voice of 3 1000 cigars just manufactured
in Cuba. They were at once shipped to
this city, where they arrived on Saturday.
They are of the finest quality, consisting
of Henry Clays and other f%avorite
brands. The enterprise will be nppre-

DEMOCRATIC VICTORY.
West Virginia Elects Wilson Gov
ernor.

WHEELING, W. Va, October l4.-The
election to-day was for Governor and a
full list of State officers and the Legisla-
ture. The question of taxation by the
dominant party and the course of the Su-
preme Court in the L~atedigeucer con-
tempt cases were the chief State issues.
A partial count in Harrison County in
dicates 500 majority for Maxwell the Re
publican and Fusion candidate for Gov
ernor. Brooke County, incomplete re-
turns give Wilson, the Democrat for Gov
ernor, 1853, a Democratic gain of 400.
Summers County $50, a Democratic gain.
The Wheeling Register Dem. claims
the election of Wilson (Dem.) for Gov
ernor by 1000 to 10000.
The latest telegrapeic report says the
returns come in very slowly and the Demo-
Gratis probably carry the State.

Hugh Burton Badly Injured by an Ex-
pIodIng Cartridge.

Hugh Burton, who resides at the odd
Happy Hunting Ground Ranch, acct
dentally shot himself yesterday and his
left hand was am%putated just above the
wrist last night by Doctors Marston and
Grimes, at the Simmons House.
Burton was irving to load what he sup
posed to be a useless cartridge when it
exploded and the ball of 40 calibre went
crashing through the palm Of his hand,
mangling it horribly.
He was placed on board the Denver
train and, on his arrival Mt this city, was
conveyed to the Summons House DIR.
Marston was summoned and assisted by
DIR. Grimes amputated the hand and the
unfortunate man is as comfortable as
can be expected. He is accompanied by
his wife and lives about twenty-one miles
south of here.

To-Day the Territorial Democratic Con
vention will assemble at Carbon and
select the candidate for Delegate to Con
gress. Among those mentioned with the
nomination are N. +. Post, A. II. Reel,
Phillip Dater and w. II. Holiday,
although Mr.. Post positively asserts that
he is not a candidate. Nothing like a
contest or a strife for the nomination
exists.
Tomorrow the Republican Territorial
Convention will convene in this city.
The list of possible nominees is somewhat
extended and includes A. 7. Babbitt, f.
+. Warren, Thos. Sturgis. j. NJ. Carey,
who is considered the probable nominee
by many, John w. Hoyt, James, France,
of Rawlins, and perhaps NJ. q. Brown.
More than one of the above is reputed to
be seeking the nomination and not a little
uncertainty as to the choice of the con
vention is apparent among Republicans.
