BLAINE AT GRAND RAPIDS.



GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, Oct a.-Mr Blaine
arrived here at O'Clock p. m yesterday and
was received by large number of Repub-
lican clubs aud escorted through crowded
streets to his hotel. He has fully recovered
his voice and was in excellent health. Crowds
thronged the stations on the way here, and
at Grand Ledge and other points, where
short stops were made, Mr.. Blaine &C
knowledged the cheers of the crowds by a
wave of the hand and converssd briefly with
the people.
After a rest at the hotel and partakIng of
refreshments, Mr. Blaine was escorted to
Hartman hall, where he addressed an au-
dience of 1000 people, devoting a large por-
tion of his address to a reply to the remarks
of Hon. Don NJ. Dickinson, to the effect
| that:
| New England selfshly hangs on TO the body
polite absorbing its wealth and giving nothing
in return We buy of New England at extortion
ate prices, kept up by the tariff, while at the
same time We sell her nothing.
In answer to this Mr. Blaine produced fig
ures to show that New England bought from
the western states $2tO, 1000, 900 worth Of
| products annually, and from the whole
country products amounting annually to the
sum of more than s4Oo, 600, 600, while olC
England, he said, took but 1927 ,000, 900. HI
then proceeded to argue in favor Of pro
tective tariff He was enthusiastically
cbeered as he made his points.
Mr.. Blaine reviewed torcblight process

Judgment Against Them.
SALT LAKE CITY, U. T., Oct. 9.-The su-
preme court of Utah yesterday entered final
judgment and decree in the Gaze Of the
United States against the Mormon church,
dissolvlng the church corporation, ordering
the personal property to be forfeited to the
government, and the real estate to be held
by the receiver until the conclusion Of pro-
ceedings brought by the government for its
forfeiture, and declaring that the new Nor
mon corporation, claiming to succeed to the
property rights of the church, is only emit
tied to the temple and buildings actually used
for worship. 1t is a complete victory for the
government
The court holds that if the property had
been held in trust, the object of which trust
was principally to uphold polygamy, the
trust was void. The newly formed cor
poration also upholds polygamy, and can not
ex rcise such trust The case has been APP
pealed to the United States supreme court

ton men like me may expect to get in
Great Britain is from the club of a police

requisite amount and more. hence the
surplus.
To prevent that surplus in the future,
this dreadful Mills bill that we have
passed proposes to put lumber, salt, tin
plate and wool on the free list--to pay no
duties at eil-and to reduce duties on
foreign manufactured goods from an
average of $41 10 on each 800 worth to
little over Sal to each 800 worth, or
less than per cent, In other words, the
purpose is TO give the manufactures of
the United States free raw material as
far as possible, and protection for CAPT
tai and labor by tariff on all manu-
featured goods over 81 per cent. This is
more than twice as high as the tariff Of
1860 nearly as high as the tariff before
the dishonest revision of 1888, and much
higher than any previous tariff revision
since the war. and, with the free list pro
posed, it is far more favorable to Ameri

has been framed in the interest of tn,

their utmost endeavors to keep the strikers
from charging the cars as they came out

The chief point of interest was at the

aggressive crowd of strikers was assembled.
At Z a. m. the doors of the barn opened and
three cars came out, manned, so it Is said,
principally by men brought from Philadel-

and seeing the situation as to chances of get

ficiently accentuated the apprehension of the
authorities TO make the general public shy of
travelling by that route, and but few fares
were collected, most of the citizens prefer
ring to take no risk of broken heads by
patrosizing the ten-cent-a-trip express
wagons etc, that continued to ply between
the outskirts and business center of the city.
A dozen or so cars were run at tolerably regu-
lar intervals on two or three lines during the
day, and withdrawn at night. During the
day there were no positively riotous demon
strations-no cars overturned, or tracks OBJ
structed, and the new men were frequently
assailed by urgent appeals TO desert the COM
pany, such as:
"We'l stand by you. Well see that you
get job if you want to stay here. Well
give you your fare back to wherever you
want to 60. Be men with men. Don't let it
be said of your little ones that their fathers
'scabbed.' Drop the lines Tear off your
register"
But as there never has been street ca
strike here, or elsewhere, where violence did
not appear sooner or later, there was de-
cided under-current of apprehension for
| what might occur before the trouble was

The fact that the male citizens of the north
| side declined to take the risk of riding on the
| cars while matters were so unsettled did not
deter the fair sex and by the time the cars
reached the terminus at the court house on
| Washington and Clark streets there were q
number of lady passengers. An immense
crowd stood on the court house steps and
lined both sides of Clark street for block

When the women dismounted from the cars
they were made the butt of considerable
ridicule and boots of displeasure met them

every strike was embarrassed by the women
Said he: "They can't be kept out of the cars
They won't walk il they can help it, anC
they hate to ride in buses or in express
wagons, even when the weather is warm"
While the north side cars were making
their labored trips the west side force of cal
men were in ferment over what 1t nigh
all mean for them Their executive com
mittee was in session nearly all day, and a
