Indiana Looking Democratic.

Especial Telegram TO the Globe.
INDIANAPOLIS. Ind, Oct. 3d. For the
first time within the progress of this cam
paign the Democrats base their hope of sue
cess (and it amounts to something like posi-
tive assurance), on q perfect organization.
The effect is manifest at this writing in a
marked confidence with the rank and file, on
whom the returns from Ohio surely exerted
an influence temporarily depressing.
Your correspondents information comes
more from popular expression of
opinion in communities as to the political
disposition of certain individuals and seri-
Gus conversation with the candidates than
from persons directly connected with either
committee. From the begin ming of the cam
paign until the present the Democrats have
had the largest meetings. The influence Of
Mr.. Blaine has been stronger at no point of
the political compass in strengthening the
determination of his opponents. If the hip
podrome could leave no money it might
fully as well have remained out of
Indiana. Now, that is my judgment. de-
yelOped by long experience in gatherin z
public opinion with the press.
Senator Voorhees, was in the city and at his
leisure for few hours on Tuesday. Though
usually sanguine, he was never more conf
dent in the whole course of his political life
The senator said:
You remember, 1 told you IN 1872 that
we would lose the state; again in 1876 that
We would carry the state, and why. again in
1880, that VIC would lose the state, aud why,

THE Boston Herald knows of man, gen.
leman of wealth and culture, candidate for
Republican elector at large who has projected
a journey which will take him away from
home on election, day so averse is he to voting
for such man as Blaine. This gentleman
represents large class Of Republicans, and
there are many of them in St.tPaul and Min
nesota, who conscientously rebel against
aiding in contributing toward making Blaine
President. An eastern paper in possession
of broad opportunities for knowing the senti-
ments and motives underlying the action of
men says that 1t believes this class to be so
numerous that the loss of Republican strength
will be at least one-fourth greater than that
indicated by the number vino have pledged
themselves to vote for Cleveland.

Trying to Break the Solid South.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 30.-The Demo-
Gratis in and about this city feel confident
that Cleveland will be elected. Mr. Post,
the secretary of the congressional campaign
committee, who is in direct communication
with the national headquarters in New York,
expressed himself as feeling quite confident
of Cleveland's election. He declared
New York showed that the Republicans
were no. counting upon that state. but were
fighting to elect Blaine without it. One Of
the principal officials at headquarters said:
The press dispatches say that ChafTee has
gone to Florida. OF course, he has money
Other Republican agents have gone
to Virginia, North Carolina and
Louisiana. The scheme of the
Republicans IS to capture southern state if
possible. Notwithstanding the bloody shirt
howl, they do not believe they can elect
Blaine in the north, but If one of the south
ern states, even Florida with four electoral
votes, can be carried for him it may defeat
Cleveland. Our advises from all the
southern states are that, no matter
what amount Of money the Republicans
may spend there, the south is sure for Cleve-
land. They also have an eye TO Virginia.
Malone has been literally supplied with
money and they viii make desperate fight
for the state.''
Secretary Post said that, in his opinion,
Blaine last hope was to break the solid

the position of Minister to France This
feast reminds the Eagle of two others, his
toricaly memorable, and first, the notable
occasion at Delmonico's, the feast spread by
lone of Mr.. Blaine's most intimate friends
and benefciaries, Stephen w. Dorsey" 1t
was upon this occasion that the ''gentle-
manly gentleman, "who is now the last of the
Republican Presidents delivered speech that
placed bribery of voters in the list of recog-
nizable Republican agencies for defeating
the viii of the people.
The other occasion to which reference is
made is described in the book of Daniel,
chapter 5. This event has been embalmed
in poesy
The king sat on his throne;
The satraps thronged the hall;
thousand bright lamps shone
Ger that high festival
The proceedings of the feast are thus
described:
The bloated monarch, surrounded by his depu-
ties, was carodsing at great expense. Profanity
was no bar to the orgy. The liberties OF an out.
ragged people were made the jest of the jewellers.
They even went the length of drinking out Of
the Thousand cups OF gold, in Judah deemed
diyine;" the moekery of debasing jehovah
vessels to the worship of idols gave a rare zest
to the feast. But that especial festival was dis
tinguished from its predecessors by phenome-
non which spoiled the appetites of Belshazzar
and his monopolist friends, and which is thus
eloquently described by the poet:
In this same hour and hall,
The fingers OF a hand
Came forth against the wall
And wrote as IL on sand.
The fingers of man
A solitary band
Along the letters ran
And traced them like wand.
The Kings countenance changed, his
thoughts troubled him so that the joints of
his loins were loose1, and his knees smots
against one another, and he demanded an
immediate Interpretation. None could be
furnished by his retainers, but finally an in
terpreter, not of the Kings faction, ex-
planned the mystery that so sadly had
''marred the royal mirth."
Belshazzar's grave is made;
His kingdom passed away;
He in the balance weighed
Is light and worthless clay.
shroud his robe of state;
His canopy stone;
The Mede is at his gate,
The Persian on his throne.
The Brooklyn journal finds in this parallel
quite marked:
1t viii be observed that in selecting the We'd
nesdsy Immediately before the election for the
great banquet to Mr.. Blaine and his satraps have
''thrown an anchor to the windward," for a ban
quet to him after November would, OF course.
but serve to mock him. But in making the
choice that this consideration necessitated they
have, with great circumspection, changed its
character so that it less closely resembles the
sapOnaceous ORGY designed for Mr.. Blaine 8
friend Dorsey than the awful banquet of death
provided for Belshazzar. Let these rogues
make merry while they may; Wednesdays fesst
will be the last they will ever enjoy together.

A Little Oxer zealnna

NORFOLK, Va, Oct 3O.-,4ov. Cameron
was announced to address Republican
meeting here tonight on Market square. A
stand had been erected and large crowd as
sembled, when an order was read from a
committee Of the city on public buildings,
refusing the right to use the place for such
purposes under an ordinance recently passed
by the city council. Great excitement
prevailed, but the governor counseled ohedi-
ence TO law and authority and the crowd
dispersed. When the action of the com nit
tee, in not extending the proper courtesy to
the governor by informing bis friends ear
Her of their intended refusal, was made
known to the Democratic mass meeting in
Johnson's hall, resolutions were unanim-
ously passed condemnfng the action of the
committee as discour.eous to the chief ere
cutiye of the state, and opposed to the prin-
ciples OF free speech.

Logan at Hel1evilie. Ill

BELLEvILLE, ILL.,, Oct. 3O.-Gen Logan
spent most of the day at the residence Of
John T. Thomas, where he received large
number of callers. In the afternoon he
made brief address in the public square.
The tariff was the principal feature of the
discussion. He said the Democratic patty
was doing everything possible to break up the
American industries and pauperize Ameri-
can labor. Democratic success, he said,
meant free trade. He presented statistics in
connection with his arguments. He left for
Indiana tonight and will reach indianapolis
in the morning and place himself in the
hands OF the Republican committee till the
night before the election.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Oct. 30.-The american
publishes the strongest assurances that the
Republican campo gn managers are seourin g
this and adjoining counties for negroes,
bringing them to this city and enrolling them
to act as deputy maTehals on election day.
They propose to secure 500, and half that num-
Der have already been enrolled. Twenty-Five
will be sent to Louisiana. The negroes re-
port first to the chairman At the Republican
county convention, who sends them to the
United States district attsrney. An unus-
ually large number of negroes are seen on
the streets. All appear to have money and
refuse work when offered. The
above facts are substantiated by prominent
citizens aud detectives who have been
working on the case. They have the names
and testimony of several negroes who have
been enrolled to act on election day. Fifty
negroes left for Indiana to-day and more
will start for that state on the 31st. 1t is
openly stated that large number of deputy
marshals will be appointed for Memphis and

THE FINAL THROES OF DESPERA-


THE FINAL 1HROES OF DESPERA-
TON.
The Blaine crowd are at their old Republi-
can trick of filing the air full of lies and
their papers full of forgeries on the eve Of
election. The rotten rubbish that appeared
in the Republican Blaine papers yesterday is
simply specimen of these tactics. From
this time until the day of election the Blaine
papers will be the vehicles of fostering lies
and unspeakable vileness, for in no other
way can the manner of man who is their
candidate be served The candidacy of
James G.. Blaine has brought American poll
tics to the very dregs of degradation. To
promote his prospects of election all the Of
fences of the decalogue, even murder by the
armed thugs of the Republican party, have
been committed. Statements against the
opposing party, too vile and infamous to ap-
pear in the columns of any newspaper,
have been circulated by the ton,
through the mails, or otherwise. Nothing
seemingly, has been left undone that men
dacious fury could devise to degrade the peo-
pie and tarnish the country.
Those who want to believe lies, NAV, in
some instances have been Influenced, but
the hour has now passed when any further
impression may be made by the Blaine as
sassins of character, and the famous things
they are proposing to say in the closing mo
ments of the canvass they have so foully de-
graded win have only the effect TO so disgust
men that the Republican party will be the
sole loser by the means.
But all effort of this nature will fail, and
fail utterly to disguise the resl issue that con-
fronts the country, and that issue is the cru
SADIE of Honesty against Dishonesty. Il has
been shown and proven over and over again
that Blaine represents official dishonesty in
| its most putrid and aggravated form. He
has had hand in all the jobbery that began
with aud existed during the period of the
war, the dishonesty that was developed by
| the Credit Moblier fraud, the salary grab
robbery, the whisky ring frauds, the star
route thieving, until at last there is not a
| department of the government that has not
become impure and polluted.
Blaine's personal following consists of the
the Dorseys, Colfaxes, Kelioggs Hubbels,
Goulds, Fields, Hayes, Elkins, the Mortons,
all the lepers and monopolies and rogues
who revel in the liberties of the people. No
wonder candidate whose environments are,
of this nature, must, if be make any fight at
all, if he put forth any effort whatever, en-
| ploy arts and devices, corruptions and false
hoods more debasing and hateful than any-

The Dana-Butler Opposition Explained
Especial Telegram to the Globe

Special Telegram to the Globe.l
PORTLAND, Ore, Oct. 3O.-A prominent
politician on this coast, recently returned
from the east, says he is acquainted with the
bottom facts of Buffers candidacy, and that
Butler and Dana sent word to Cleveland just
before Butler announced himself a candi-
date that they would like to confer with him
in New York. The object of the
proposed conference was to secure
to Judge French, of the treasury department
his present position in the event of Cleve-
lands election. The governor informed the
messenger that his official duties required
his presence in Albany and that he would be
glad to receive the distinguished gentlemen
and confer with them on any subject of i'm
mediate importance. The language of re-
Spouse did not seem to cover future posi-
bilities, so the conference was not held and
then they became belligerent.
The same gentleman, active and thor
oughly posted in California and Oregon pol
itics, says those states will certainly go Dem.
ocratic. In the case of the latter state, he
says the Republicans carried the last general
election by most shameless and unconcealed
more votes in the First ward of
the city of Portland than there were resi-
dent voters. The ward constitutes two
voting precincts. In city elections the Re-
publicans do not even nominate candidates,
never dreaming of securing a majority ex-
cept when the state or Federal machine car
RES things in the brutal and unblushing
manner peculiar to the party. At the last
June city election, that ward was carried by
the Democrats by 400 majority, and the vote
was 1000 short of the total vote
counted when the Republicans ran in
shoals of fishermen, and at the time of the
Democratic victory the entire resident vote
was polled. Hancock carried the ward by
500 majority. The Democrats are now well
organized, vigilant and full of enthusiasm,
while the Republicans are respondent and
apathetic. Just now the people are wrought
upon the railroad question, believing that
unearned land grants should revert
to the government and to be subject to claim
and settlement. Blaine's acknowledged
championship of corporations is equally
against him, and the advocacy of his cause
by Senator Dolph, who is a railroad attorney,
only does him injury. Reliable information
from different parts of the state shows gains
of from so to 100 in every county, so that
the Democracy confidently expect to carry
the state.

Regarding Hendricks State.

Special Telegram to the Globe
ST. LOUIS, Oct. S0.-Ex-Governor Hub
bard of Texas, was in town yesterday, stop
ping at the Southern, on his return from In
diana, where he addressed various meetings
in support of Cleveland and Hendricks. He
has been in the campaign upwards of two
weeks, first in Illinois, then in Ohio and lat
terly in Indiana speaking to the multitudes at
three or four places in company with ex-Gov.
Hendricks. He says that at no place he
spoke to less than 1000 people, and from
that number up to 5000, 10000 and 25,-
600. The excitement and enthusiasm in be-
half of the Democratic ticket was pronounced
and inspiring, boiling Democratic triumph
next Tuesday in the state.
Gov Hubbard says from all the evidences
that fell under his own observation the stu
alton is more than hopeful.
In his opinion the Democracy will
carry the state. There are many Republicans
who will not vote for Blaine. At New Albany
100 Republicans presented Mr. Hendricks
with paper, subscribed TO by them, saying
that they would cast their votes for Cleveland
and Hendricks. Gov. Hubbard, when asked
whether the Republicans were using money,
said he knew nothing personally, of what they
were doingin this respect, but from what
was done before it was presumed they were.
But, said he, they never can carry out the eff
frontery and bribery of 1880. He was there
then and knew all about it. Ohio, being a
Republican state, he did not count on its
going Democratic, but Indiana, he thinks, is
certain, and his information from all
sources and private letters received is that
New York will go Democratic, with New Jer-
sey and Come more than probable for
the Democracy. When asked about his own
state, he said it would give Democratic
majority of 10000, good fghing show.
