The appointment Of Henry w. Scott
as register of the Larned land Office was
confirmed by the senate by a unanimous
vote last Thursday. This action might
ns well have been taken three months
ago. for, as we understand u, no charg-
es have been put m against Mr.. Scott
since that time. Now that Mr.. Scott
will soon assume the duties Of this inn
portant Office, our people can reason
ably hope to have their business trans
acted promptly. For weeks Receiver
Bickel's hands have been tied by reason
OF tho registers Office being closed; but
now ne and Mr.. Scott win soon clean
up the accumulated business.

Henry George says that Cleveland
will be elected triumphantly. Regard

he has this to say:

any regard for Mr.. leyeland-thOugh

the great work he has done in the last
six months-but for the very same reas-
on that made me accept the nomination
OF the representatives, of organized Ia

the ticket of the United Labor party last

those OF Mr.. Ford. He feels that this
year there are about 5000 Irish-Ameri-
cans in New York who supported Cleve-
land and are now out for Harrison.
This was Mr.. Healey's estimate before
the appearance Of Lord Sackville's letter
in advocacy Of the Democratic party.
OF course others have changed since
then. But ii 5000 be the real strength
OF the increased Irish Republican vote,
it is, OF course, sufficient to elect Harri-
son, unless there are Compensating de-
fections from the Republican ranks not
yet recorded. So that, ii the calculations
OF either OF these leaders are correct,
there is no doubt OF Republican tri-
umph.
Mr.. John W. Dewey is the president
OF the Irish-American i-Cleveland
and Protective League. He had Just
returned from tour of the State. Said
he: II would place the Irish Republi-
can vote at 10000. Harrison's majority
in the whole State at between 10000 and
25,000. | can tell you nothing OF the

New YoRK, Nov. 1.-The Democratic
National Committee has been in the
most earnest and secret conference all
day with prominent politicians of that
party, in various parts OF the country,
and also with the representative men OF
the colonizing and repeating element.
That something unusually important in
the way Oh tho preparation OF fresh
frauds is uppermost in the minds
OF the Democratic managers is
quite apparent, and that renewed
efforts will be made between this and
Tuesday to inaugurate fresh schemes by
which to overcome Republican maiori-
ties in various sections of the doubtful
States is well known fact to-day. Local
Republican managers in Indiana, New
York, New Jersey, Connecticut and,
West Virginia, and inspectors of election
on election day will do well to be upon
their guard continually, else they will
find themselves imposed upon aud
FRAUDS PERPETRATED
upon the ballot boxes. The Republican
National Committee is in receipt Of dis
patches tonight which state beyond all
contradiction, us the information is Sc
cured from the most authoritative sources,
that the Democrats OF New York and
Indiana particularly will put their main
dependence in the fraudulent voting of
double ballots. They also hope to secure
like results in West Virginia and New
Jersey. In the latter State, however,
large numbers OF eolonizers have been
planted in the strongest Republican
counties with the hope that they may
do effective work there. Rgpeaters and
colonizers have also been sent to the
western counties Of Indiana by direction
Of the notorious Eugene Higgins, OF Bal.
timorc, who is acting in this despicable
business by direction Of Senator Cor.
man aud Chairmen Barnum and Brice.

A Democratic Blowout In Weston that
was Remarkable for Nothing In Partic-

Special Dispdtch to The Mtoligeaeer.
WESTON, W. Va, Nov. 4.-For weeks
it was advertised by paper and circular
that W. L. Wilson and Sam Cary would
address the people OF Lswis and adjoin-
ing counties on the third and that ut
night torch-light procession would
take place. 1t was well known by the
manavers that neither Wilson nor Cary
could be here, but anythingto beat Gen.
Goff7s crowd. The asylum mules were
mounted by employees who rode over
hill aud valley, circulating and posting
bills, The result was q great many peo-
ple OF both parties came in to see the
sights. Five hundred and sixteen men
and small boys constituted the whole
number in the procession.
Hundreds OF men were reellng and
falling, cursing and fighting, and paint
ing the town red. 1t is estimated that
not less than fifty fights occurred. The
ward politician, Weeks, imported from
Baltimore, was only able to hold n small
part Of the crowd to the end OF his
speech. Patients from the hospital were
turned out to swell the crowd. The
long.winded ward politician wore the
audience out, so that few remained when
Col. Ben Wilson got up and made ashort
speech in behalf OF protective tariff,
which did not so down very well. Many
