Republicans Want Two to One.

Betting on the election was slack on
the doHn.t town exchanges yesterday.
The Harrison men said that they would
be idiots to accept 500 to $50 or $l00 to
$50 when there was every indication that
they could get 2 to l later. The latter
part of last week these odds we're offered
in a small way. on the Stock, Produce,
Cotton, and Coffee Exchanges, but re-
ported offers of big money at those figures
we're exceedingly difficult to trace.
Yesterday the! Harrison.M Morton men
manifested a disposition to accept all
offers at 2 to ! against them, and the.
Cleveland Thurman men became shy.
There we're small bets that Cleveland
and Thurman would carry New York,
New Jersey and Connecticut, but these
also soon stopped when it mas seen that
the Harrison Morton boys we're eager to
accept such bets. The Cleveland men
on the Cotton Exchange were especially
ehy of Connecticut The Cotton
Exchange fellows are rather enigmatical.
The majority sentiment is for Cleveland
sand the Old Roman, but the brokers do
not appear to be as enthusiastic for Mr..
Cleveland as they we're four years ago..
.You won't find any Mug-wump tree
traders on this foor," said one of the big
Southerners on the floor. These people
we're inclined to bet that Connecticut
would be lost to the Democrats.
It wasreported at the Ollagawalla cafe,
slast night, that two business men there
had made bet on the Presidential elec.
tion at $4,000 to $1,000 in favor OF
Cleveland. Names not gixen. Fred
Loud, of the Hoffman House, says he
was made the custodian yesterday of the
iimiemorand UNI ofSsa betsof$f,000 to $500.
He saysithafME 4 Kelly; df Kelly & Bliss,
booked a bet of $1,000 to 5000, which
would net about the same as the other
with the commission considered.
Mr.. Herman Oelrichs, of the national
committee, does not like to hear of such
odds, but would rather see the betting
even. He thinks that would stir the
Democrats up to work better, the present
conditions being calculated to give them
an idea that things we're too easy. In
reference to the understood Republican
purpose of fighting for Indiana and
Connecticut, Mr.. 0elrichs said that he
had no fears. The Harrison strength in
Indiana, he thought, would not show
much, except in his own county, and he
was sure that Ex-senator William d.
Barnum would take care of Connecticut.
Capt. Conner said at the st. james last
night that we'll. known bookmaker
offered to bet $4,000 to $4,000 yester
day afternoon that Cleveland would be
reelected. Somebody in search of a
commission agreed to produce man in
the evening to take the bet, but did not
produce him..

The people have been gradually, but as
steadily as the hand Of fate, regaining
their grasp upon the Government and
striking off the shackles to the party
of rings and monopolies and conspiracies'
of all imaginable KINDS against the

There died last week near town a
remarkable old negro named Smart
Hubbard. He was 105 years old last
March-of this there can be no doubt.
Notwithstanding his extreme age he was
very stout; has made good crop every
year, and had twelve acres in cultivation
this year and had worked it one time.
Old uncle Smart was the very essence of
industry and literally killed himself at
hard work. Until his last sickness he
never took dose of medicine in his life.

by number Of candidates the following
was adopted
Whereas the City Council has been
discussing and agitating the question OF
leasing the city gss-works to private in
dividuals and whereas such injudicious
action would be of great injury to our
city, and would result in delivering one
OF the most important branches of our
city government into the hands of mo-
nopOly and deprive many OF our worthy
laborers Of Livelihood and whereas we
believe that true government should not
be controlled and manacled by a class of
individuals. but should be conducted
always for the public good and the pro-
motion of the governed therefore be it
Resolred, That the Fulton Democratic
Club desires to express its condemnation
of such action on the part of the City

city.
And be IL further rcSoivcd, That
our thanks are extended to Mr.. Jack

THE MASONIC TEMPLE.
Committee Examining the Plans
that NcVe Been submitted.


A member of tine committee intrusted
with the selection Of plan for the Ma
sonic Temple to be erected at the south
east corner Of Broad and Adams streets,
in conversation with a Dispatch re-
porter yesterday, said he was confident
that an entirely satisfactory plan can be
selected from the number that have been
submitted. "In fact" said be, "some
of them are really very much prettier
than we had expected. We did not
think 50 elegant a building as some of
the designs represent could be built for
the 500, COO"
Specifications accompany each plan
and the architects in every case Obhgate
themselves to furnish responsible con
tractors, who will build the Temple
for the amount set apart for that pur-
pose. Some of them even estimate one
or two thousand dollars below. A num-
her Of prominent Masons have examined
the plans, some OF which are very pretty.
Tie cor mittee will hold daily sessions
until they have made careful examina-
tion OF each plan and accompanying spe-
cifcations. At least week will be thus
consumed.
There are seventeen designs, and the
following are the competing architects :

AS for Fritz" which was presented
last night according to a revised edition,
1t is one of the best plays Emmet ever
appeared in, and gives good scope for
lis varied talent.
The cast is good-all the members OF
1t and the dirty-faced tots with their
childish laughter and play, and the big
dog, Fritz's pet, should not be forgotten.
a good many children were carried to
the show last night and they seemed to
enjoy 1t as much as their elders, and no
wonder, for a play better adapted to
please people Of all ages could hardly be
written.
Fritz will be repeated tonight, and
the house will probably be crowded.
