CALIFORNIA AND OREGON.
Beth States Regarded as Certain 10 BE Car
ritd nv the Democrats.

A Portland (OregoD) special says: Your
correspondent to-day sought Charles Nolt-
ner, editor OF the Portland Standard, and
from him obtained information Of the po-
litical situation in the state. Mr.. Noltner,
through long residence here and extensive
acquaintance and contact with the people,
is well posted in California and Oregon
politics.
He says that both States will certainly 90
Democratic. In the case OF the latter State
he SAYS the Republicans carried the last
general election by the most shameless and
unconcealed repeating, using fishermen TO
cast Loco more votes in the First Ward OF
the city OF Portland than there were resi-
dent voters. The ward constitutes two
voting-precincts in general elections. In
city elections the Republicans do not even
nominate candidates there. never dreaming
Of securing majority except when the
State or Federal machine carries things in
the brutal and unblushing manner peculiar
to that party. At the last June city cleo
ton that ward was carried BY the Demo-
Gratis by 400 majority, and the vote was
1900. AT the time Of the Democratic vic
tory the entire resident vote was poled,
and Hancock carried the ward by 500 ma.
jority.
The Democrats are row well organized,
yigilant, and full Of enthusiasm, while the
Republicans are respondent anu apathetic.
just now the people are wrought up on the
railroad question, believing tnat the I'm.
earned Immigrants should revert to the
Government and be subject to claim aud
settlement.
Blaine's acknowledged championship OF
railroad corporations is greatly against him,
and the advocacy OF his course by Senator
Dolph. who is a railroad attorney, does him
much injury. Reliable information from
different parts Of the State shows gains OF
from fifty 10 one hundred in every county,
so that the Democrats confidently expect
TO carry the state.

TRIcROF7HE ScANDALMONGERs
The Baltimore and Ohio Red Hook.

A Baltimore special says: There is a
good deal Of indignation expressed in Balti-
more and Ohio railroad circles here to-day
over the attack made upon the company by
western paper for an alleged circulation
Of scandalous documents against Governor
Cleveland. That the accusation Is wholly
and most emnhatically without the slight
est shadow Of Accumulation makes the thing
much more than ordinarily irritating, and
that Ii may lead % a serious loss OF business
is further cause for yeXaiion. As Ia well
known, the Baltimore and Ohio Red Book
Is issued hy the passenger department OF
the road. and ito remarkable success as an
accepted authority on political statistics by
all parties naturally renders officials OF the
company jealous 10 maintain its high
standard. The requests by mail reaching
the department here number up into the
thousands daily, and they come from all
points Of the compass. An entire force OF
clerks work night and day in addressing
the envelopes into which the books are
placed unseaed and delivered directly to
the post-0fhce.
Under the post.oflice regulations The
Red Books are nailed in open envelopes,
snd what has happened after leaving the
railroad department here is possibly best
TO be understood by the following editorial
published in the Lawrence tkan.) Gazette
Of October 18th, copy Of which was re-
ceIyed to-day:
"Some DAYS since we published notice
Of the Baltimore and Ohio Red Book, pIr-
porting 10 he published by the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad Company. In accord
ance with the notice one OF our citizens
sent TO c. X. Lord, agent Of the company,
and received the book, and folded in with
II was scandslous publication against
Governor Cleveland. II this sort OF busi-
ness is tolerated by the management Of the
road. then decent people Of this part OF the
country should be certain that they do not
buy tickets over that line when they go
East"
As more than 10000 copies OF the Red
Book, in Its different editions, have already
been mailed. and there is no telling how
many of them have been made The vehicle
Of matter entirely unsupported, the effect
is looked for with deep concern. It's GER
tainly despicable piece Of business, who
ever perpetrated il. and il the investiga-
ton winch II is said will be made comes TO
any definite result, the chances are that the
atmosphere will be made warm for some
body.

for regret. The programme was excellent
throughout. Miss Lulu Skinner, oil Dan

The feature OF the evening was The superb
violip.playing OF Mr.. Nalan FRANKIE, OF New
York. This gentleman II by long odds the
mort finished artist upon the King OF In
strumentso that has ever appeared before
the Association. lie received his musical
education In Berlin. and has since studied
with Wilhelm. lie came to Richmond a.
conductor for Ford's Opera Company on
their first visit this season. lie left the COM
many at Lynchburg, and, following them
10 this point on Saturday last, got ont
an attachment on Ford for his salary, which
had not been paid. His performance OF
last evening has established foi him repu-
tatiop with Richmond musicians Of which
he may feel Justly proud. Upon his benz
tiful rendering OF Wieniawskfs "Sonvenir

him upon his second number on the

were al modernized music. and in charac-
ter greatly varied, and calculated to thor
oughly test the skill Of the artist. He ex-
celed in all. and won the unqualified
admiration and applause not only OF the
audience but OF The musicians upon the
stage as well. In his pose and feca,qae he
reminds one very forcibly OF the great
Wilhelm. lie brings out tone that is
almost the perfection Of volume and sweet
ness. while in the rapid transitions from
the & string 10 the most delicate harmonies
he nearly approaches his great preceptor
Wilhelm In fine, he is finished and
honest master OF the violin. After bis first
appearance last evening he played with the
orchestra, and whenever he appeared he
was greeted with much applause. He was
beautifully accompanied BY Professor Rem
bardt. Mr.. Frankie leaves for New York
this morning. and he has significd desire
for making Richmond his future home.
The orchestral numbers last evening were
as a general thing well rendered.

itself:
ALBANY, October y, 1884.
To Whomtuer IL May Concern:
We, the undersigned, most earnestly de-
sire the election OF Mr.. Blaine, and to that
end we welcome the employment OF every
honorable agency. But We condemn SLAM
derous attacks when used against the can
didate Of our choice, in whose integrity we
firmly believe; and we equally denounce
such methods when they are employed
against the candidate OF the Democratic
party.
II has been brought to our attention that
in private letters allegations against the
purity OF Governor Cleveland's social life
in this city are freely made. We have lived
in Albany ever since Mr.. Cleveland came
here as Governor, and we attach no impOr-
lance to these reports derogatOry TO his
private life, because we sincerely believe
that they have no foundation in fact. Gov
ernor Cleveland has led an extremely labo-
rlous Official life while in this city, and 90
far as we know his private associations have
been Of thoroughly good repute.
We bear this testimony without rcluc-
lance, for we believe that every gentemln
on both sides should stand up cOuraCeously
and give the weight Of his influence in fl.
vor CT honorable methods in the conduct Of
political campaigns.

1t is stated by those in a position to
know whereof they speak, and by those
who claim to be cognizant of the pre-
liminary arrangements, that a new Re
publican paper will be started here within
a few days. 1t is further affirmed that
within two hours after the close of the af-
ternoon session of the Republican County
Convention on Tuesday, members of the
party subscribed $1,000 toward starting
the new paler. The Republicans seem
to desire a reliable party newspaper, and
one which will not be run in the interest
of any clique or faction.
The Independent afternoon paper is
also pronounced an assured enterprise.
