ton in an Enthusiastic Rally.
HAMILTON, o., Sept. 20.-The Demo
Gratis had one of the largest meetings TO-
day and tonight ever held in this county,
the number of persons present being
about 10000. A large number came from
Indiana. The chief interest was the ap-
pearance of Mr.. Hendricks. The
other speakers present were Allan
G. Thurman, Gov. Hoadly and Dur
bin Ward. Letters of regret were sent
by Gov. Cleveland and Senator Payne.
Mr.. Hendricks was introduced by ex-
Senator Thurman, and began by saying
that he had before him an article
written for the Commercial Gazette
and copied very extensively by
Republican papers to the effect that in
1868 club was formed at what was cali
ed the Stone House iu st. Clair township,
in this county, by about 70 persons who
were dislOyal to the Union, which was
called the Vallandigham club,
and that he Hendricks was invited and
came to st. Clair and helped form the
club. 81 wish to say" he continued,
''that l never knew that there was a
house called the Stone House nor st.
Clair township until [ saw it in
this article. / refer to this as
an example of the multitude of false
statements the Republican press is circu-
lating about the Democratic candidates.
A lie never hurts man. 1t is the truth
that hurts. MIR. Hendricks then turned
to other topics, saying that it was
time for change in the administration.
The meeting was very enthusiastic and
by reason of its great size much con-
fusion existed at times, rendering it diff
cult for the greater portion of the crowd

PENNSYLVANIA TO BE CAP
TURED BY A FUSION.

Ex- Speaker Randall Sure of Carrying
the state in NOvember-St. John to be
Instrumental in Carrying New York
for Cleveland-Tennessee Democrats
Working Like Trojans.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 20.-It is stated
that eX-Speaker Randal's recently quoted
prediction that Pennsylvania would go
for Cleveland was based upon an under
standing between the Democrats and the
La Dor party by which fusion is to be
made, certain electors retiring from the
Democratic ticket, their places being sup
Piled with electors representing the Labor
party. A. w. Fletcher, Mr.. RandalPs
lieutenant, who is just over, says: "Mr.
Kendall knows what he is talking about
After the October elections there will be
a fusion of all the elements opposed to
Blaine in Pennsylvania. The Democrats,
Greenbackers and laboring men will unite,
and IS the combination will have ma
Jority, we are certain to carry the State"
NEW YORK IN NO DANGER.
Representative Stephens, of New York,
had charge of the Democratic Committee
work to-day. Mr.. Stephens says that
Gov. st. John will poll an astonishingly
large v1te in New York. Gov. Buffers
vote, he says, will not amount to anything,
except in the large cities. In the rural
dist lets he will not get even reminder
thai he is candidate. New York, he
says, is as sure to go for Cleveland as is
any of the Southern States.
TENNESSEE SAFE.
Representative Mcmillan, of Tennessee,
arrived in the city this morning. He says
that there is not the shade Of a chance
for the Republicans to make good their
claim that Blaine will carry Tennessee.
The Democratic ranks in the State, he
says, are all in good order and the Re-
publicans are doing nothing beyond a
little work for their candidate for Cover
nor. Mcmillan will leave for home again

WASHINGTON, Sept. 20.-Ex-Sena-
tor Alexander Mcdonald, of Arkan-
sas, whose defense of Blaine in connec-
tion with the Little Rock Railroad bonds
affair, was yesterday widely circulated
by the Republican National Committee,
is well remembered here as belonging to
the unsavory and thrifty crowd of carpet
baggers who appeared in Congress after
the war.
There is on file in the Interior Depart
ment a statement made by j. j. Newell,
at one time employed as an attorney to
aid in the passage of the original Texas
Pacific Railroad bill in 1870. In Mr..
NewelPs statement he makes several eX-
tracts from his diary kept in 1870. The
following are two of those extracts:
KELLOGG's RECOMMENDATION.
''May "a Col. Giddings called on Sena-
tor Kellogg at my request to get his
views. He informed him that he was
fully committed to Southern road, and
believed that a compromise could be ar
ranged with the bills, provided a certain
amount of money could be raised, and re-
quested Col. Giddings to call on Senators
Rice and Mcdonald and confer with them,
and any arrangement made with them
would be satisfactory to him. l requested
Gen. E.. W. Rice to call on Senator Nc
Donald, and he informed Gen. Rice that
he would have an interview with Sena-
tors Rice and Kellogg and would see him
again..
THE BRIBES DEMANDED.
'sMay 26, Gen. Rice called on Senator
Mcdonald and Col Giddings called on
Senator Kellogg. They stated the terms
on which they would take hold Of and as
sist to pass TIE tie bill. The following /.
their proposition, namely: The sum Of
5000, 900 to be paid them in first mortgage
land grant bonds of the said Pacific Rail-
road; also the further sum of $4,000 in
cash to be paid into the hands of certain
parties that they should name, One-half Of
said sum of $4,000 to be paid to them at
the time said bill passed the Senate, and
the other half to be paid to them when the
bill became law"
Ex-senator Alexander Mcdonald is a
fine addition to the crowd of spectators
at this time lowering around Blaine in
Nauy York
