liarly tit him for the duties of the

A correspondent of the Cincinnati
Enquirer thus sums up the situation
in Ohio: The Republicans have no
such victory as to give them an adj
vantage Tuesday next. They had
strained themselves, and are already
suffering from reaction. Dudley,
Filley, Plumb and others will not be
here. 1t was Filley who had charge
of the United States marshals. and
Dudley of the Pension and Postoffice
organizations. The grand army Of
officers will be scattered the 18th of
November, and Chairman Oglevee
with his committee will be left to
play a lone hand. The result shows
that there is no such thing as cali
ton in Ohio. The ProhjbitioDists
polIed $500 votes for Morris and saw
they will more than double it for st.
John. The Greer hackers polled
about four thousand votes for Herold
and say they will make it a formida-
BILE vote for Butler. With this state
of affairs, and the Republicans able
to get only a plurality in October.
there IS a big fight on hand for Ohio
next Tuesday.

A recent st. Paul dispatch says:
That according to a statement made
public here to-day the earnings of the
Northern Pacific Railroad bid fair to
be the largest in the history of that
road. So far they amount in even
figures to 81, 113, 900, or an average of
$4,000 each day. General Auditor
Barker, speaking of the probable
earnings of the month, said that they
would easily foot up 81, 800, 900, and
would probably 60 100000 or more
beyond these figures. This is an in,
crease ver October, 1883, of $500, 600.
The best showing heretofore made
by the Northern Pacific was in April
last, when the earnings fell a little
short of 81, SOC, 600. The business of
both the passenger and freight de-
partments have been great. A tele-
gram received at headquart. rs here
says that a train took into Fargo,
Dakota, ITO solid car loads of wheat.
This IS the largest wheat train on
record.

New York TRUTH: There is q
piteous cry for blaine to come to New
York. The splendid ovation ex-
tended to Cleveland by this city and
Brooklyn last week has frightsned
the Blaine managers. They e only
one way to carry the State, and that
is by bringing Blaine to New York
to magnetic the people. But his
presence here will not save him.
The people of New York have made
up their mlnas to rebuke AMI con-
denim the author of the Mull1gan let
tiers. They have no use for a man
who adds falsehood to t,rpitude.
They will not support a candidate
VINO has the meanness to be come a
party to a conspiracy to attack the
private character of his opponent.
Mr.. Blaine may come to New York
II he wants to. There is no law
against his coming that we know of.
But it will avail him little. He will
not be able to magnetic any of Us to
any considerable extent, The ,rv
for Blaine is a vain cry,

LOUISVILLE, KY, Oct. 27.-Her-
bricks was greeted by 5000 people at
New Albany, Indiana, tonight. He
discussed the tariff, arguing that
duties should be levied only for the
purpose of deirayiDg the expenses of
the government. He said Cleveland
received support from the best
elements of the Republican party, in-
Guiding ministers, scientists, college
professors, students, editors and
laborers. He emphasized the fact
that the Democrats look for strong
support from Independent Republi-
cans. In closing he eulogized the
Democratic party, saying it espoused
the cause of the weak against the
of the poor against the ricI,;
Of the oppressed against the oppres-
sors. The speech was frequently in
terupted by applause. Governor
Hendricks was followed by Governor
Manson and others, who delivered
brief speeches.

Official Correspondence.

LONDON, Oct. 27.-ReceDt official
correspondence relating to Egyptian
affairs have been made public. A
letter of instruction from the govern
ment to General Wolseley stated the
object Of the expedition was to bring
Gordon and Stewart from Kartoum.
No further offensive operations than
should prove necessary to secure this
end would be permitted Neither
the English nor the Egyptian gov
eminent was prepared to assume the
responsibility of the governme,t OF
the Nile valley beyond Wady Halfa.
though they would be glad to see an
independent government established
at khartoum which would keep
peace with Egypt, encourage com
!nerce and prevent the slave trade.
when it was known that General
Gordon bad sent Stewart to burn
Berber the government directed
to send a counter order to
Colonel Stewart.

The Blaine Caravan.

ANGELICA. N. Y, Oct. 27.-At
Salamanca Blaine spoke as follows:
The American people never settled
but one great question in a single
Presidential election. There may be
other issues, but there is always n
that leads and in the end absorts
popular attention.. This issue in 1881
is a question If protective tariff ON
one side against free traders on the
other. Some Republicans In the
State of New York have left US be-
cause they are free traders. They
have acted wisely. (Laughter.) II
they want free trade the
proper thing for them
to do is t. join the Democratic party.
But for Those don't want a protective
tariff continued, the proper thing for
them Is to adhere to the Republican
party. Cheers Any man who
has decided his convictions on that
question should remain and abide
with the Republican party. On The
other hand any maj who has differ
ent views in favor of free trade Will
better carry out those views by join
ing the Democratic party. l want
to be very frank with you, and l
want to be- especially frank with
gentlemen who think the other ques-
tons are to be settled this year.
There is no real issue but the
question of protection, and that
one which connects itself witt
it and becomes a part of it because
the opponents of protective tariff
hope to do it by solidifying votes
and asking the men of Indiana and
men of New York to Join them.
The question therefore is whether
you are ready to take New York cut

we're loyal during the war and tie
Ter to the solid south in order that
rec trade may triumph over
I could rot by
words make the
ssue any palmer than that.
believe when I look into your faces
hat 1 leave that issue in safe hands.
believe that Western New York
will show that she is not to be di-
'erted by any side issue, especially

o unset tile other questions Of great
nd transcendant Importance.

HOW IT WILL BIZ o N

This is the way the Republicans
propose to carry Indiana. They have
an army Of pension agents. The tac-
tics of these men so advantageously
employed in Ohio is to be repeated
in Indiana. Their mode of proceed
ure is this. In each school district
an agent is assigned, whose special
duty it is to hunt up Democratic ap-
plicants for pensions, and promise
such, if they vote the Republican
ticket, their application will be adj
vanced out Of its regular order and
be speedily adjusted. A full list of
the Indiana applicants has been pre-
pared in Washington and Is in the
hands OF the chief Of the special Ex-
animation Division. THIS officer
went from Cincinnati to Iniidnapo-
lis soon after the Ohio election.
But this is but a small part of the
programme to steal Indi-
ana as was Ohio. All cities in the
State having over twenty thousand
are to be overrun with
deputy United States Marshals to be
imported from Kentucky where the
Republicans have no use for them ON
day rs that State is sure for
The Democrats. The men chosen for
his duty are d~esperadoes who will
work for big pay. They will he
to the teeth on election day
md be specially directed to use their
weapons to lntimidate, bulldose, or
lrive Democrats from the polls.
such are the means to he used to car
Indiana for Blaine. How they
viii work remains to he seen, bnt We
much mistake the Hcosier Democ-
acy if they can be thus fo. ced in'o
he support of the Republican cam
lidates. The shotgun policy worked
d Ohio; it may fail in Indiana.

THE BOTTOM FACTS.

Truth will out. Even associated
press lies must yield before official
figures. According to these the eIec~
tiOns of the 14th inst. in Ohio and
West Virginia show the following
extraordinary result: The Repub.
lican plurality in the former State is
reduced to about half OF what it was
four years ago. The Republican ma
jority in the State is over 1900 less
than nothing. The Republicans are
actually in a minority while four
years ago they had a positive major
ity of over 5000 over Democrats,
Greenbackers and Prohibitionists
combined.
They are not only in a minority in
the popular vote, but they elect a ml.
nority of the congressional de.ega>
tion. -Four years ago they elected Is
Republicans to Congress. This year
they elect only ten. -Four years ago
the Democrats elected only 5 repre-
sentatives; this year they elect II, a
majority of the delegation. The in
crease in the vote in Ohio over that
Of four years ago is 66, 600. The Dem
ocrats cast 8 5000 votes more than
they cast for Hancock, while the Re-
publicans with the aid of Blaine.
