AN OPEN LETTER,
Which II More Fully Explained by one
from Rev. j. Roberts, Pastor First
M. 4. Church, Fremont, Mich.

Rheumatic Syrup Co., Jackson, Mich.
Gentlemen-From the fact that several
remarkable cures by Hibbards Rheuma-
tic Syrup came under my observation,
among which were those of Rev. J. Berry,
of Morley, and Mrs. Harrington, of Al.
tona, recommended Rev. J. Roberts TO
have his daughter give the remedy trial.
AS expected, it broke up the disease,
and to day the young lady is free from
pain and almost well. / unhesitatingly
recommend Hibbards Rheumatic Syrup
and Plasters as remedies of great merit.
o. G. Pemberton, Druggist
o, @. Pemberton:
My daughter Maud has used Hibbards
Rheumatic Syrup and Plasters, which you
so strongly recommended her to try 1t
has now been about eleven weeks since
she commenced, and her inhammatory
rheumatism is nearly broken up Her
limbs were badly swollen, and the poor
girl was in terrible agony. In the midst
of the pain we wound the Plasters about
her limbs and, as result, the swelling
was reduced and she became quiet and
rested. The Syrup corrected her indiges-
ton, cleansed the rheumatic poison from
her blood, and she is now able to be around
the house. She still uses the Syrup and
Plasters, and will continue to do so until
entirely well. We consider Hibbard's
Rheu attic Syrup and Plasters remediei
of great merit. Rev. J. Roberts,

To-day,s Election.

We are so near the time when the result
OF the Presidential election will be definitely
known that predictions are hardly in order.
1t may be said, however, that Republicans
look forward to the balloting to-day with
great confidence that when the vote is
counted Harrison and Morton will be shown
to have secured good majority of the cleo
toral votes. The signs were never more
favorable than they appear to-day. The
great issue of the campaign has been protec-
tion against free trade. The Democrats, to
be sure, have tried to obscure it, but there is
little probability that they have succeeded.
Wherever this issue has been tested, the re-
suit has been strongly on the side of protec-
tlon. Oregon gave greatly increased Re-
publican majority on this issue, as did iVer-
mont, and though the Republican majority
In Maine was little smaller than four years
ago, when the Democrats allowed the cleo
tion to 20 by default, the issue of protection
accomplished much here. Without it no
doubt the Democrats, with the vigorous
campaign they made and the large sums of
money they put into the canvass, would have
succeeded In accomplishing large reduc-
tion from the Republican majority of four
years ago. Protection having proved pow
erful issue for the Republicans in Maine,
Vermont and Oregon, there is every reason
to believe twill prove powerful issue in
New York and Connecticut. Both of these
States are covered over with industries
which would be crippled if not destroyed'by
free trade. The free admission Of British
manufactures would prove far more disas-
trous TO these States than to Maine or ver-
mont. If. therefore. Maine and Vermont
declared against the Democratic policy in
itiated by the Mills bill, there is abundant
reasonlto believe that the protest against it
from New York and Connecticut will be
even more vehement. The same reasoning
applies to Indiana and New Jersey, though
perhaps in less degree. The first and great
est reason then for the confidence of Repub-
licans lies in the belief that the people are
with them on the principal issue Of the cam
paign. As regards three States the correct
ness of this belief has been demonstrated
To-day's election we confidently expect will
demonstrate its correctness as regards the
rest of the Northern States.
The Portland daily press., 1888-11-06
no MaIne RenuhIIcans.

The electoral vote of Maine is not in
doubt The September election settled that
beyond all question. We hear of Democratic
schemes to steal an elector or two by means
Of split tickets, and some time ago it was
announced that the great brain of Commits
sioner Morton was incubating a plot to put
Maine in the Cleveland column. 1t may be
there are Democrats who are foolish enough
to imagine that they can accomplish these
things. But it is highly improbable. When,
therefore, the PRESS urges all Republicans
voters to go to the polls to-day and throw
their votes for the Harrison electors,
does not do so because of any fear
OF Democratic plots. 1t is simply anx-
ious that the majority for Harrison shall be
as large as Republican votes can make it..
There is abundant reason for confidence
that the next President will be Republi-
can. Maine can give him only six electoral
votes, and those are already assured, but it
will make difference in his popular ma
jority whether Maine Republicans turn out
in full force or some of them stay at home be-
cause they feel that their votes will not be-
necessary. The Republicans Of Maine ought
to increase their plurality of September to
10000, and if they turn out they can do it.

or almost equal importance with the vote
to-day for General Harrison will be the eIec-
tions in the various congressional districts.
Oregon, Vermont and Maine have already
elected their congressman. All the other
States elect to-day Most of the prominent
members of the fiftieth Congress are up again
for reelection. William Walter Phelps. of
New Jersey, and General Goff, of Virginia,
declined denomination in the hope that they
might obtain seats in the United States
Senate from probable Republican Legisla-
lures in New Jersey and West Virginia.
John ID. Long of Massachusetts, retires be-
cause he is tired of politics and wishes to
devote himself to his private affairs. Million
aire Scott, of Pennsylvania, Mr.. Cieyeland's
right hand man in the fftieth Congress.
declined denomination, thus averting any
possibility that he might be a useless attach
ment In the Fifty-First. General Patrick
Collins, of Massachusetts, has also retired,
as has Perry Belmont Of New York. Others
who will be missed from the Democratic
side are some Of the protectionist followers
OF Randall who were crushed in their districts
by the force Of executive disfavor Mr..
Randall himself is a candidate, however, the
administration not having dared to move
against him too openly. Most if not all of
the prominent Republicans have been renom-
mated. There are Mckinley of Ohio, Hit
Of Illinois, Judge Kelley of Pennsylvania,
General Grosvenor of Ohio, Cannon of uli-
nois, Burrows of Michigan, General Browne
of Indiana nd.Henry Cabot Lodge of Mas
sachusetts. OF the Democrats Carlisle has

tion does not by any means follow as mat

that famous Ways and Means Committee
that reported the Mills bill. seven will be
judged by their constituents to-day: Mills
of Texas, Mcmillan of Tennessee, Breckin-
ridge of Kentucky, Breckinridge of Arkan-
sas, Turner of Georgia, Wilson of West Vir-
ginia, Bynum of Indiana. Mr.. Springer, of
Illinois, and ''Sunset" Cox, of New York,
are also candidates. By this morning, how
ever, Mr.. Cox has probably given up the
high hope cherished by him few DAYS ago
that the promotion of Mr.. Carlisle TO the
Attorney Generalship through the re-elec-
tion of Mr.. Cleveland would merge Sunset
Cox into Speaker" Cox. There are two
grave probabilities to shatter this hope of
the general joker from the Ninth New York
district. Benjamin. Harrison seems likely
to be the next President, and he will not ele-
vate Mr. Carlisle to any extent. And, more
over, appearances now indicate that neither
MT Cox nor any other Democrat can be
elected Speaker Of the House. The present
House has l72 Democrats and 1853 Republi-
cans, Democratic majority of 10 in a full
House. This is narrow margin, the wiping
out OF which to-day seems likely to make
Thomas B. Reed and not Mr. Carlisle or Mr..
Cox the next Speaker.

The Republican bill lowers the duty on
sugar, a step which would be very certain to
be followed by cheaper sugar, since the
home industry is too small to supply the
market; and the Democratic bill lowers it on
wool and woolens, which might or might not
make clothing cheaper, but would be very
certain to hurt the great home industry. AS

by an enlarged and craftily chosen free list,
aim to make the first breach in the protective

trade may swarm to its destruction. This is

The Chief of the Bureau of Statistics has
calculated the percentage of duty on the
dutiable importations for the fiscal year 1887
according to the present law, the Mills bill
and the Senate bill. By thepresent tariff the
average is 47o7 per cent; by the Mills bill
42.77 per cent. and by the Senate bill AZ 70
per cent. The Senate bill is actually a
greater reduction than the Mills bill. If the
object Of the Democratic tariff reformers is
to reduce the dangerous surplus and relieve
the country of unnecessary revenue, the
Senate bill is certainly the best bill, and
they should have advised Mr.. Mills and their
friends in the House of Representatives to

A Lineman's Peril,

HANGING BY SPIKE THROUGH HIS THIGH ON AN
ELECTRIC LIGHT POLE.
The Philadelphia Press to-day says: Police
men Mason and Quick, Of the eighteenth dis
trict, saved the life of Charles Borden, an cleo
trio light lineman, whom they had found hang
ing to spike on an electric light pole at Frank
ford road and Huntingdon street. ten minu ties
after O'Clock yesterday morning. Borden was
replacing the carbons in the lamp along Frank
ford road at the time and had just placed new
carbon in the lamp at Huntingdon street.
When he began to descend to the pavement he
lost his footing and fell about ten feet down the
pole, when his foot struck one of the project
ing steps and in an instant he was hanging from
an iron step which buried itself in the flesh of
his thigh several inches, after tearing cres-
cent-shaped, ragged wound. In this condition
he remained until his cries for help reached
the ears of Officers Quick and Mason, who got
step-ladder and both assembled the pole and
rescued Borden from his peril. He was 80 ex-
hausted from hanging in his painful and peri
lOus position that he almost unconscious.
The police removed him to the Episcopal hos
pital, where the doctors found that the wound
was dangerous one. Borden lives at 1881
Thompson street.

Indecent Posters.

To the Editor Of The EVENING STAR:
For some time past have noticed an obscene
picture posted in various parts of this city adj
vertising cigarattes and other brands of to-
bacco. and was much gratifed when 1 read in
the STAR some days since that the District Com
missioners had condemned the said poster. At
the time of writing there are several of these
indecent placards within a few yards Of my
home; one directly in front of the Abbott
building, and certainly do not think it en-
hances the morals of the many young boys who
have to see it every time they go to or from
school. If the District Commissioners cannot
have these offensive placards removed, We can
by refusing TO patronize tobacconists who ex-
hibit or furnish such pictures, and there are q
great many young men and old men who use
tobacco in one form or another that object to
lewd pictures. HERBERT LEWIS.

To the Editor OF THE EVENING star:
clipping In TIE Star Of yesterday regard

between Jefferson Davis and William H. Bissen.

bravery OF Illinois and Mississippi troops in
the Mexican war, and Jefferson Davis was q
son-in-law of President Taylor. So far the
item is more historical" It il less histor-

lowing facts: President Tyler died In 1880.
William H. Bissell, elected governor Of Illinois
in 1856, died during his term Of Office, in 1850.
Col. Bissel's stand in the debate gave him such
overwhelming popularity in Illinois that the
constitutional ineigibility Of duelists to high
Office was explained away in the case, and the

gained such hold that no opposition governor
