light from Washington, d. c., address
ed about one hundred and fifty Re-
publicans and about eight or ten
Democrats ut Stewards hall yesterday.
Birdie was wrapped in his nine dollar shod-
dy suit Of clothes, and when he flew upon
the staging he made very nice appearance
behind his gold spectacles. He tried to
explain to the people in 9 very obscure
way why they oughS to leave Q surplus Of
one hundred and twenty millions Of dol
lars in the U. 8. treasury every year, and
tried TO explain why money sharks ought
to be protected. His speech was q very
dat effort and . complete failure. II
pleased the few Democrats and disgusted
tbs Republicans His exhibition OF tin Pl Is
and English qusensware was also fail
ure. One Of tue boys on the run mistook
him for . fakir peddling tinwsrs. About
four o'clock Birdie and hiscrowd gathered
their grips for Littleton in order to catch
the east bound trsio, which is due ut that
point at Ills p. m. The train being some
late they held small caucus in the wait

THE Noble Old, Roman passed through
The city yesterday, eastward bound, and
fitting welcome and send OFF, he re-
received. Enthusiastic admirers Of the steil'
ing cid Democrat, to the number Of about
l 500, assembled at the B. & D. depot to
greet the next Vice President of the United
States, snd the prsttiest little family party
imaginable, with Judge THURMAN in the
midst of it, they saw, too, through the
CIR windows. 1t was astonishing what sn
electrical effect the sight Of the plain and
unaffected old Judge had upon ctO1s as
sem6lei ID greet him. Round on round Of
cheers burst forth, and, as the train relied
10, pgoel3 swsrmed about it at the imui-
neat risk of their lives, while the gather
ing gloom Of the evening was brilliantly
.illumined by fireworks No one who
saw the Old Roman and heard him speak
could think him anything bat hale a1d
vigorous old man, god for many long
year Of warfare in behalf the people.
What the Democrats Of Wheeling want
TO do now is, select good, strong commit
tee to persuade the Old Roman to pay rs 9
visit. We will give him such reception

of the market Is still sgaipst oil

To-NIGH1's MEETING.

Republicans who claim to be governed
by principles and not By blind party zeal
should attend the Capital Rink nesting
tonight and listen to the speeches Of SEN
stor KESNA and Judge FLEMING. Their
confidence in the goodness Of their cause
must indeed be weak If they are unwill-
iag to have the side Of their opponents
fairly presented to item. Il Is not often
so favorable an opportunity is presented Of
hearing the tariff issue discussed at the
best advantsgA Those Republicans or
Independents who 20 to hear these
speakers can be assured that the
chief iFsue Of the campaign viii
be intelligently and fairly discussed, and
that the audience will be Treated rs ress-
onirg men who desire light on . great
economic question. With 50 good cause
as the Democrats have in this campaign
there is no call on their plrt for the ser
vice of slang-whAnging orators whose OBJ
isct is to ''whoop up the boys" The
Republicans are devoting enough attention
to that sort of public speaking to supply
the needs of both psrties.
To-night's meeting will be one Of the
largest Of the campaign. Two beainier

Wasted-0u Junior Senator Highly
Pleased With The Prospects in
Our Own Stah.

WASHINGTON, October 5.-senator
Faulkner, of West Virginia, wfo has been
in the State f,r the past four weeks actively
engaged in the canvass, returned TO Wash
ing and was at the Capitol. The Senator
was on bis way to New York, for which
city he left to night to confer with the
National Democratic Committee. Asked
Is to the pt litical condition Of affairs in
West Virginia, the young Senator replied:
1T spre,rs on the surface, at lsast that
the Republicans have determined to make
West Virginia one of the battle 6 ounds
for the Presidential contest. Recognizing
this fact the Democrats are thoroughly
aroused. Hundreds of meetings are held
daily, addressed by able and intelligent
local speakers"
did you fiud any change of opinion
among the farmers or lsboring men Of the
Statt?" uss asked.
II can see no change either in the
farmer or lsb ,ripg elements in West Vir-
ginia adverse to the Democratic party"
"Oa tie other hard d, have you met any
Republicans who have changed to The
Democratic party on account Of the
tariff"
"Yes," replied Mr.; Faulkner, II know
of many changes favorable to revision of
the tariff and reduction in the excessive
revenue which is now flowing iuto the
treasury"
What are the chsnoeJ of tie Democracy
retaining control of the State Legislature
and electjng q Democrat to the U. 8
Senate to sc &C ,ed Mr.. Kenna, whose term
expires next March?"
THE Only cause of anxiety or uneasi-
ness that any Democrat has in reference to
the State is the belief upon the part OF
many that the Republican managers will
throw into ths State large corruption
fund witha view Of purchasing, if possible,
enough votes in the close Senatorial and
Delegate districts to change the result and
in that way secure control of the Legisls-ii
ture that will elect United States Sena-
tor next winter. This is q national mat
te-, as it inv Ives the control OF the United
States Senate. Should we succeed in elect
ing the President and Allen G. Thurman,
and to'd our own in West Virginia, and
II tarn Democratic United States Sena-
tor, the vote of Mr.. Thurman gives the
Senate to the Democratic party by one
majority.
81 am satisfied" continued the Senator,
that West Virginisns are not purchss-
akls, however, and that our Republican
friends will b, disspro nted in th.ic efforts
to corrups the voters OF that State"
