Excels the Bohemian Oats Swindle.

A scheme that far exceeds the Bohemian
oats" swindle, says the Mansfield Shield and
Banner, is about to be perpetrated on the
farmers of Richland county. The scheme
was inadvertently disclosed to the Shield by
one who knows all about it. The swindlers,
of whom the numberi is limited, have adopted
plans as follows: One or two of them will so
to a farmer and tell him they have new
brand of wheat which they want him to cul-
tivate for them. The farmer is first COM
PEELED to. enter into an article of agreement
by which he agrees to plant two and one-half
bushels of the wheat on one acre of his
ground, but must manure the ground we'll
before planting, and devote much of his time
to the careful cultivation of the same. The
only compensation asked from the farmer is
an equal "divy" on the wheat raised, which
will be about forty bushels. That is, the
swindler gets twenty bushels in return for his
two and one-half bushels. 1t is a very poor
acre of ground that will not raise this amo unit
of wheat if 1t is given the care prescribed by
the article of agreement. The next year the
farmer plants the wheat on ground that is
not SO well fertilized and the result is disas-
trous, as it will not yield more, if as much,
as the ordinary product. The seed wheat is
raised in Canada, and is beautiful, round and
smooth grain. A member of the "gang"
stated few days ago that he expected to
make SIC, 900 out of it in Ohio this fall. Farm
ers in this vicinity should give these swindlers
wide berth, rs they mt,y be the next to be
called upOn

ELECTION Il

ERIE, Pa, Nov. s.-The district now
representa- by William L. Scott has gone
Republican, although hat gentleman was
confident that his successor would be a
Democrat. He would have been beaten
himself if he had been a candidate, and
he says that the tariff men subscribed
$75, 1000 for that especial purpose. One
reason he gives for not accepting the
nomination is hat he would have been
compelled to fight them with their W
weapons, and did not want voters in a
district corrupted. Scott is more broken
down bar any of the Democratic leaders
by his defeat, for not only was he conf
dent of winning, bnt he has been the
president : nearest friend, and was largely
responsible for the tariff reform message
of 1887. He was the only one Of the
Democratic leaders in the house who was
consulted or was permitted to read the
document before il was sent to congress.

The Washington Centennial.

New YORK, Nov. S.-The sub-com-
mittee on plans for the celebration of the
centennial Of W~ashington's inauguration
in this city on April 80, 1889, recon-
mended at a meeting to-day that services
of praise and thanksgiving be held in the
different churches as they were 100 years
before. The report recommends special
services at st. Paul's church which Wash
ington attended and literary exercises on
the steps of the sub-treasury, where Fed
eral hall stood when Washington was in
augurated. Other governments will be
asked to take part in a naval display and
the following naval programme has been
arranged. AS the presidento of the United
States is expected to arrive from Wash
ington following the precedent of Gen.
W~ashington's arrival, be will be met by a
deputation at Elizabethport and taken
thence by the government boat to the foot
of Wall street, passing en- route the
United States and foreign war ships. At
Wall street he will be welcomed by the
mayor and other distinguished officers.

The Case.

CHICAGO, Nov. S.-Judge Shepherd
to-day granted Meckie l.. Rawson a de-
cree of divorce by default, her husband,
Banker Stephen w. Rawson, failing to
appear. This seems to have followed as
the result of an agreement between the
litigants by which, it is said, Mrs. Raw
sen is to receive $4,000. The case has
attracted prah attention owing to the
prominence OF 'ie persons interested, the
extraordinary allegations made on both
sides. the shooting by Mrs. Rawson's son
OF Banker Rawson at the door of the
church one Sunday morning, and also the
shooting by Mrs. Rawson of her hus-
bands attorney in the court room,

Jubilant.

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 8.-Gen. Harri-
son began to receive congratulatory mes
sages from New York and the East as
early as 9 o'clock election night when the
first meagre returns indicated his probable
election. From that moment to the pres
ent writing, kilograms and letters of CON
graduation have poured in upon him
from every city in the Union. The table
in his library is piled with bundles of
these kilograms, there being fully 5000.
Probably no city in the Union ever wit
messed such extraordinary and outlandish
scenes of enthusiasm and chaotic but good
natured disorder as prevailed here this
afternoon and tonight. Certainly the
citizens of Indianapolis never before saw
such a sight. The demonstrations that
occurred immediately following the news
of Gen. Harrison's nomination sink into
insigni6cance as compared with the scenes
Of to-day and to night.

sophically, but he was never an admirer of
Cleveland. He is a protectionist and has
been stnhhornly opposed to all of the fea.
lures of the presidents policy from the
beginning. He was the first of the Dem
ocratic leaders to go to. bed last night, but
he continued to claim a victory until his
head touched his pillow.
Postmaster General Dickinson is au-
other man badly hurt. He has been alb
~solutelV certain of the presidents re-elec-
tiop and leased his Washington residence
for three years. Up to the very last
moment he insisted that Michigan would
go Democratic and when the returns
showed Republican gains in the southern
part of the state he wired his headquar-
tiers here to keep up their courage, for the
northern people would redeem his pro-
mise
The campaign that has just closed cost
an immense amount of money, more than
twice as much of any previous one. The
exact amount is difficult to estimate, but
each of the national committees raised
and spent more than 81 ,000, 900, and each
of the New York state committees
81, 900. 600 more. The Democrats sent
out 10000, 900 documents from their
headquarters here, which does not include
those mailed to their constituents by con-
gressmen, and the Republicans must have
handled many more. The printing bills
of either committee amounted to hun
dreds of thousands of dollars. The
amount of money that has changed hands
on the election is very large, probably
81, 900, 900.
WASHINGTON, Nov. ST do not see
any reason to revise the estimate | made
yesterday relative to the strength of the
Republican majority in the next house"
said Secretary Mcpherson of the Repub-
lican congressional campaign committee
this afternoon. Il cannot imagine what
basis there is for the claim made in New
York that the Democrats will remain in
control of the house. All the information
obtainable this morning i~ustifies me
in expressing the opinion that the
next house will consist of 173
Republicans and l52 Democrats.
There is a possibi';tr 'hat the Republican
majority may be reGaced by later advices
to nineteen or twenty. but / have made
liberal allowances in my calculations for
all Democrats"
Representative Breckenridge of Ken
lucky. member of the ways and means
committee, expresses the opinion that the
Republican majority in the house will be
very slender. He is confident that it can
not exceed ten. According to his ~calcula-
ton the Republicans must show a gain of
nineteen representatives to secure a ma
iority. He does not believe they have
exceeded that figure.

WHY He Was Defeated.

CHICAGO, Nov. 8.-The following are
extracts from a dispatch to the DAILY
NeWS by its Washington correspondent
who has been in New York the past
month:
When President Cleveland had pre-
pared the first draft of the message he
sent to congress last December he sent for
the secretary of the treasury to submit the
document for his criticism and remarked:
'Fairchild, | have written something here
that will beat me for reelection, but it
right The fulfllment of that prophesy
was read in this mornings papers and
that the tariff brought it about Is conceded
by the managers OF this campaign this
morning. Cleveland lost votes in the
manufacturing centers of New York and
gained non among the farmers. The re-
duced majority he received in Brooklyn is
largely due to the friends of Archie Bliss,
one of the Democratic congressman from
that city who voted against the Mills bill
and was defeated for denomination by
federal oficeholders for that reason.
In New York City the friends of Con-
gresham Merr1man, who was defeated
tor denomination IN a similar manner
and tor a similar reason, got ever with
the administration when they went to the
polls. One of the chief causes of Harri-
sons large gains in the country perhaps
most effective, was the Indifference of
local Democratic ladies throughout the
state to Cleveland's chances, particularly
in the strong Republican districts, where
there are no local offices to fight for. The
president neglected these men in passing
offices around. They spent their time
and money to elect him governor, and
then president four years ago. and
he declined to give them any more credit
until something had been paid on account.
Tim Campbell, of the house of repre-
sentatives, has been defeated for r~e-elec-
ton by the Tammany men and will be
greatly missed in the resorts of Washing
ton. Campbell is the mar who met the
refusal Of Cleveland to grant some favor
because it would be unconstitutional with
the remark, oh, come off, now, Mr..
President. Constitution ought not to
stand between friends
THE entire list of congressman elected
in New York City are Tammany men
which is largely accounted for by the fact
that that organization has not been prop
erly taken care of in the post Office and
custom house,
