Gladstone this afternoon delivered his
third speech OF the campaign at Dalkeith.
Fully 5000 persons were in attendance.
He said he was confident the Liberals
would elect a majority Of the members OF
the House OF Commons in the coming
election. The dependence of the Tories,
he said, on the Irish voters was unsafe
and was dishOnOrable TO the country.
LAND REFORM ADVOCATED.
Mr.. Gladstone advocated a radical re-
form OF the land laws. He regretted the
secession of few Liberal peers. Their
departure from the Liberal ranks, he said,
would not harm the party, but it would
harm the House Of Lords, as it would IN
duce the people TO believe that the abOli-
tiOn of that body was necessary.

Secretary of War and the President, and all
the influence of both those high officers was
exerted to compel verdict that would be sat-
isfactory to them. The court was convened
again and again to modify their finding at the
command of the President. The same thing
is being done in the Smith case The verdict
does not suit Secretary Whitney, and so he
has summoned the court to reconvene and
bring in another finding. This attempted in
fuencing of courts martial by superior officers
is repugnant to the very essence of justice
and judgment. If this sort of thing keeps on,
the movement in Congress to do away with
courts martial altogether will gather sufficient
force to make it speedily successful.

A SPECIAL dispatch to the New York World
complains of various abuses in the Patent
Office. 1t relates that Mr.. Flint, who held
the post of librarian for years, and who there
by became very proficient in his work, and Of
incalculable help to all interested in patents,
has been reduced from that position, worth
49, 900, to one of common messenger, 'receiv-
ing but 5000. The main feature Of this thing
is the fact that he is still compelled to act as
librarian, no man being as efficient as he is.
The present librarian is L. D. Sale, of Detroit,
who does practically nothing beyond drawing
his salary while Flint does his work.

The Democratic Favorite.

SARATOGA, Sept 22.-Many delegates to the
Democratic State convention are now arriving,
and there is pretty good representation of both
the political parties around the hotels tonight.
AS yet, all that can be said Of the Democratic
situation. expounded by the new arrivals is that
Hill evidently the leading favorite for Governor,
with Cooper following him closely. Hills man
ayers claim 250 votes, but this is considered an
absurd claim by the leaders of the other fac
tons One well-informed gentleman, who is
here in the interest OF Cooper comedies Hill 155
on the first ballat. with Cooper 135, and Flower
about 20. This leaves Hill only 80 short
OF the 1913 votes required to make q
nomination. The Hill men, however, are so con-
fdent of victory that they have already made up
slate with Senator Jacobs for Lieutenant-gov-
ernor. Maxwell as Comptroller, and Fitzgerald
as State Treasurer 1t is believed that Coopers
friends will not carry their opposition to Hill
far enough to afford any danger of a split in the
party II Hill develops great strength.

On Monday night Senator Sherman was
greeted at Cincinnati by the largest popular
audience that ever gathered in that city at
political meeting. Referring to the demon
stration, the Senator said:
'.No wonder that the people of Cincinnati
are rising in their might to curb, and correct,
and overthrow the insolent domination of
power that for three years has disg,aced this
great city-the Queen of the West In YOUR
municipal affairs discredit has been brought
upon you by their neglect and extravaganza;
your taxes have been increased, your burdens
have been made heavier and the credit of your
city impaired. Three years of Democratic
rule in the city government of Cincinnati is
enough to move the people Of this great city
to this magnificent demonstration. am
glad, my fellow citizens, that the prospect
before you Of electing men who will 90 to the
Legislature of Ohio to strengthen the arm of
your mayor, Amor Smith, to govern the
police and protect peace and order in this great
city, instead of violence and disorder as here
tofore, is very bright"
In Cincinnati the disregard of law in the
interests of the saloon-keepers, resulted in the
terrible riots which held the city for two or
three days and which resulted in blcodshed
and destruction of property. 1t is precisely
the same spirit of lawlessness that is showing
itself in Indianapolis, the end whereof is an
archy and destruction. Senator Sherman
properly says that the people of Cincinnati are
rising ''to overthrow the insolent domination
of this power" that has throttled the law.
The people of Indianapolis should rise ITO
overthrow the arrogant domination" of the
same power here. "The overthrow of the ar
rogant domination Of the Liquor Leaguein the
politics of the city and State" is the pending
issue in our city election. There are hun
dreds and thousands of Democrats who would
heartily rejoice if their party were delivered
from the thrall of the saloon power.
