Confident of Success.
palgn.

New YORK. Oct. 25.-The Repub-
lican managers continue to grow
more confident of success each day.
The closing days of the canvass are
putting the committees of both par
ties to their utmost endeaVOrs, but
the continued Republican gains here
have surprised even the most san
guine members of the party. Senator
Don Cameron, of Pennsylvania, was
among the callers at Republican head
quarters. He had just come from his
home in Harrisburg, stopping long
enough in Philadelphia to consult
with Chairman Cooper regarding the
outlook there and give him such en-
enlargement as lay in his power. A
gentleman with whom Senator Cam
eron conversed to-day said this even
ing: Senator Cameron is very pEch
interested in the success of the Re-
publican ticket. He believes in Blaine
and Logan, and came over to tell the
members of the committee so and
proffer his services in aid of their
election.
"What did Mr.. Cameron think of
the situation here ?"
HE came over to ask questions,
and he has been devoting himself
diligently to the task all day. He
went away apparently satisfied as to
the outlook, however, and says that
the Republican party in Pennsylva.
MIA was never better equipped than
at present."
The information from Indiana to.
day was of the most encouraging
character.
"Mr. Blaine's trip through the
State" said Senator Chaffee tonight,
"has done us an immense power of
good, and look forward to sub.
stantial Republican victory in that
State"
The committee of delegates from
various business interests of the city
met at No. l Broadway this after.
noon, Mr.. E. A. Drake in the chair,
and arranged for grand dem0nstra-
ton of business men, including all
professions, trades, and industries,
for next Wednesday,, the 10Th, to
welcome Mr.. Blaine to New York.
The procession will march to Madi
son square. Mr.. Blaine will review
the column at the Worth Monument.
1t is expected that there will not be
less than $4,000 business men in the
line. A committee has been appoint.
ed to take charge of the organization
of the parade, of which General Chas.
H. T. Collins is Chairman.

The Rockville Montgomerian tells
very good joke on Mr.. Nelson, the
gentleman who is trying to instruct
our people on the tariff. 1t says that
Mr.. Nelson in his speech there last
Saturday week dwelt at length on
the tariff question. Among the as
sertions he made was that the import
duty on molasses was "sixty per
cent" For his benefit, and in order
that people may see that the state.
ment was untrue, the Montgomerian
copies the following from the "act to
reduce internal revenue taxation"
now in force:
"Molasses testing not above fifty
six degrees by the Polariscope, shall
pay duty of four cents per gallon {;
mOlasses testing above fifty six de-
grees, shall pay duty of eight cents
per gallon"
So it will be seen that on the high
grade the import duty is only fourteen
per cent, and on the low grade but
seven.

Why Is It ?

How does it come that nearly every
prominent English paper is opposed
to Blaine and in favor of the Demo-
cratic platform and candidate?
And why is it that all the promi-
nent Free Trade journals in this coun-
try, with but few exceptions. have
joined in the cry against Blaine, and
endorsed Cleveland and his platform?
And why is it that nearly or quite
all the moralists who oppose Mr.
Blaine on the ground of his alleged
dishonesty, have back of their pre-
tensions, strong convictions in favor
of Free Trade E?

We trust that it is not ne
cessary to remind any Re
publican at this late day of
the great importance of hav-
ing a FULL Republican
vote polled on Tuesday, the
4th of November. Every
man must recollect numer-
GUS instances of good men

vote or two, when he could
count perhaps half a dozen
of his neighbors who enter
tanned political sentiments
similar to his own, who did
not go to the polls. We say

Alex. SulIiyan's Portrait of Cleveland

From the New York Sun, Dem.l
Among all the orators and writer's
who have tried their hand at portray
ing Grover Cleveland, nobody has
achieved better likeness with fewer
lines than Mr.. Alexander Sullivan,
the eloquent Irish-A merican leader,
In speech at Wheeling recently Mr..
Sullivan thus described the Demuc-
ratio candidate for President of the
United States:
"DulI, cold, sluggish, ignorant.
without experience as he is without
education. unable to speak with Fro.
priety or fire his own language, or to
write it with grammatical certainty :.
a man whose nature is harsh, whose
hand is frigid, whose heart has gone
up to the rich and the powerful, and
whose feet have spurned the claims
Of the tOilers of his own State. A
man whose message to the New York
Legislature on the pilots fees dis
tlnc'ly declares That wages IN this
country should he no higher than
they are in foreign countries. A man
whose policy would, were 1t in his
power TO give ii effect, transform.
your pretty, bright, and ceanIy
homes into the foul novels that are
the homes Of labor in Manchester and
Bristol, and whose kpenest political
sense has been directed toward culli-
waiting the favor, for his own advan-
iage, Of corporations and mnnOpolies.
| G, his vetOes and read them for
yourselves. Get the couple of fiat and
pnintless speeches he has made and
read them, if you can, without de-
rision. On the sole question which
constitutes the issue of this campaign
he has not had the ability or the c0ur-
age to sp"ak one word. Either he
knows nothing about it or he does
not dare say what he thinks. lest it
should be turned to his defeat"

New YORK, Oct. 25.-Mr. William
NJ. Evarts' speech at the Brooklyn
Academy Of Music is being COM
mended on every hand. After few
opening remarks he said:
The Issue before voters in this CAM
paign is not one of men, but one Of
measures. 1t is simply whether for
the next four years the government
of The country is to be placed in the
h 'ndS Of the Republican or the DEM
ocratic party. 1t is even more than
this. 1t is the supreme question
whether power shall be transferred
from the party that stood by the cOun-
try and by It's life blood saved it, or
to the party, the greater bulk Of
which tried to destroy it. Remem-
ler, my fellow citizens, the 1853 solid
votes of the South might just as we'll
be deposited for foreign Pasha or y
Prime Minister of a foreign nation so
far as their relations to any sober dis
cussi0n of principles in this campaigns
is concerned. Now in sober sense
does anybody say that Blaine is any
thing hut a Republican from head to
foot. in sentiment, speech aud action ?
Has he not been such for twenty-fnur
years? The time to consider whether
Blaine should be beaten was before
his nomination. Now that he has
triumphed no true man will raise up
his hand to defeat him, unless he is
an enemy Of the Republican party"
Then Mr.. Evarts entered into an
extended. able and logical defense of
the Mulligan letters similar to his re-
cent speech in New York. He was
very sarcastic at times and treated
BIaine's accusers numerically. Every
time he mentioned Blaine's name the
cheers could b. heard for blocks
around Mr.. Evarts spoke for two
hours and received an ovation at his
close.

The Tariff the Real Issue.

A leading Democratic paper Of the
North declares that the tariff plank
means free trade; another, not less
prominent, in the West, declares that
the same plank means protection,
and a third, a representative journal,
gives it up, as "a thing no Teller can
find out" Certainly no fellow can
find out where Mr.. Cleveland stands
on this particular plank, as he sim
ply declares that he stands on the
platform.
We may kindly assume that Mr..
Nelson is not so befogged. He knows.
we all know, that the tariff is the pre-
yailing issue. 1t would he futile for
him to deny or evade it. 1t would
be unwise for him to attempt to do
so. His own party forced the issue
upon the country and he must meet
it.
The Democratic party boastfully
proclaimed that "tarif reform" was
its great object and elected a majority
of the House of 1882.
This House, assembling in Deem
her, 1888, elected Mr.. Carlisle speaker
on the ground that he was a FREE
TRADER, and in organizing the House
would insure the promised "reform."
Mr.. Carlisle did organize the House
with Mr.. Morrison and other noted
Free Traders in charge of the tariff
question.
These men did bring in bill
known as "the Morrison BILL" which
was declared "a first firm step to-
wards free trade" and which in fact
was such step.
The Democratic caucus voted, about
four 10 one, to take up this bill as
party measure, and declared this sort
of reform" the most vital object of
the party.
The Democratic House deemed it
of such vast importance that it sacri-
feed all other public business in order
to force this measure through.
Four fifths of the Democratic men,
bers of the House, in two formal
votes, supported this measure, and it
was barely defeated, (Mr. McComas
taking an active part in its defeat,)
nearly all the Democratic journals
denouncing as ''traitors to the party"
the few Democrats who voted against
it.

Indiana's Vote.

INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 2S.-The Re-
publIcans have completed their third
and final poll Of this State, and it
shows Republican plurality of 49,
$40. The poll indicates that the
Prohibition vote, the uncertainty of
which has been feared more than any
other one feature of the campaign,
will not exceed II, 900 on the elector-
al ticket, but to allow a good margin
it is estimated that il will aggregate
$4,000. The vote for Butler is report
ed at less than 10000, while in 1880
there were over $4,000 Greenback
votes. j hn G. New, chairman of
the Republican State Committee,
seems to have great confidence in the
accuracy of the poll. and says with
muchsIi0sitivenesS that Blainp's plu-
rality Will not fall below 10000. In
betting the odds are slightly in favor
of Blaine, but up tn the present time
few wagers have been made.

Before another issue of this paper

nees. But the case is different in this
Congressional District. Mr.. McCOmas
was elected to Congress two years ago
by a large majority, and there are
many reasons why he should be re-
elected by an increased majority now.
This will certainly be done if Repub-
licans do their duty, and we have
good reason to believe they will do
their whole duty on this occasion.
From all the districts and from every
quarter of Garrett county come the
reports that the Republicans are in
better condition than ever before. If
this be true, and we believe it is, Gar
rett will give Little Mac" a hand
some majority, and thus honor him
and at the same time do herselfcredit.
All that is necessary to accomplish
this is to go to the polls and vote.
