these things far better In China, for il q
native dealer fails to pay his creditors they
all assemble at his house, fortified with their
pipes and goodly store Of rice and tea,
and there they sit, calmly smoking. slipping

Yerted TO hospital uses. He therefore
ordered the volunteers 70 remain under

with each other in doing guard duty at

NKw YoRk, Oct. 7.-TheIe vas an air Of
activity and good spirits about the Repub-
lican headquarters to-day, and the pres,
ence there Of the sleek.coated Chairman
B. .. Jones, Of the National Committee,
gave the place quite IN sir OF old times.
Mr. Jones looks much as he did ayear ago
Il have been in New York for several
days" he said. "0f course, q great many
persona have brought me information
about poli.ics. It appears certain that
the Republicans OF this State are once
more unit. There are certainly no Mug
wumps this year. The problem seems to
be how many Of the voters who came TO
rs last fall will remain. The tens OF thou
sands OF trish-A mericans who patriotically
supported Mr.. Blaine are nen who be-
long in the Republican party because they
aud it believe in protective tariff. In the
face oi the threatened tariff agitation by a
Democratic Congress, and its further re-
duction, l do not see hog eny Irish
American can vote to sustain the belno-
cratic party. The Irishmen helped US
wonderfully in Pennsylvania to roll up
our immense majority for Mr.. Blaine.
They are all protectionists, and their
proper place is with the patty Of protec-
ton.
"How about ohio?"
"Fhe sdyices ! h9ye recently received
from there are much Iaore favorable than
at any time SINCE the campaign began.
The Republicans appear to have been
thoroughly scared there, and when that is
the case they generally come out TO vote
ard carry the day. 1t is only when the
Republicans stay at home that the Demo-
Gratis carry Ohio"
General Carr arrived in the city to-day,
and Nr. Davenport is expected to return
on Thursday. The reports from all parts
OF the State continue most encouraging.
