The Way L. Works This Year.

Philadelphia American.
From two distinct quarters come reports that
the gains of the Prohibitiouists are from the
Democrats this year. not from the Republicans
A Democrat in Maine and tho head OF the Pro-
hibitionist campaign in Indiana are the two au-
thorities. This is not unlikely. In 1884 there
were Republicans like DR.. Howard Crosby, who
had no special afinities for tho third party. but
who voted for Mr. ST. John because . dislike for
the Republican candidate held them back scom
their own party. They would not vote for Mr..
Cleveland, SO they went over for the time to the
third party by way of protest They. are now
back in the Republican ranks, while Democrats
who dislike the attitude Of their own party with
regard to free trade, cIvilservice reform and
temperance, but who hate to GO over to the Re-
publicans even for time, are taking to the
third party by way of protest. 1t is quite posi-
bic that so far from hurting tho Republican
help TO it. This of course is exactly what they
do not wish TO do. Their one hope is to force
the Republican party. through repeated defeats,
to adopt their plans. They were confident Of
their success when their vote in New York In
1854 defeated Mr.. Blaine; they contendsd there
was no hope for the Republicans except in
adopting their method for the cure OF the evils
of intemperance. But the rise of the anti-saloon
and hieh-licsnse movement, and the thrusting
OF free trade into the foreground party
issue have changed all that. Should the result
be that General Fisks candidscy actually helped
Mr. Harrison, the raisou d stre of the party
would be gone, for they know that no amour I
of defeat will ever divorce the Democracy OF the
North from its alliance with the saloon.

The Arrest of Ira j. Chase for illegal Voting.

The Arrest Of Ira j. Chase for illegal Voting.
Huntington Herald.
Democratic papers erdeavor to make point
against Elder Ira j. Chase, the Republican can
didate for Lieutenantgovernor, because Of his
srrest for alleged illegal voting in 1880, at Wa
bash. As Elder Chase was arrested at the home
of the editor Of this paper then resident OF
Wabash), where . social of the Christian Church
was being held, and as the editor and several
other citizens OF Wabash accompanied him TO
Indianapolis, where Mr.. Chase Was promptly
discharged after brief examination the next
day, we are in position TO know the inside facts
OF the case.
Elder Chase had been a resident of Wabash,
and the pastor of the Christian Church there,
over six months when the election occurred.
Before coming to Wabash his home was IN llli-
nois. His family did not reach Wabash until
several weeks after he arrived. although they
had broken up housekeeping in Illinois when he
came to Wabash. On election day one Charles
Lemon, a notorious thug of Danvilie, H., was
arrested for illegal voting. His arrest aroused
the ire of Doc DePuy, and. with maignancy
which is characteristic of the man. he endeavored
to retaliate by swearing ont the papers for the
arrest OF the id preacher. IL was
clear case OF spite on DePuy's part, III Because
of a desire to avenge Lemon. t2l Because the
Doc. hates a preacher on sight, and he hoped to
crafty his animosity by disgraelng Elder
Chase.
OF course, except the humiliation OF arrest,
and the Inconvenience OF a trip 70 Indianapolis,
where, in less than An hour after the examin-
alton was begun Elder Chase was triumphantly
acquitted, no harm resulted. 1t wes not only
clearly shown that Elder Chase had right to
vote but it was proved that he had not voted
until he had taken counsel with euch lawyers as
Major NJ. H. Kidd and Hon. Calvin Cowgirl,
both of whom had advised him of his clear right
to do SO.

The Feeling in Illinois.

Among the Grand Army men passing through
last night was W. ID. Matlock, of Mattoon, H.,
who said to Journal reporter: "The recent
elections have made Illinois Republicans jubi-
laot while the Democrats sre completely demon
alized. and have about given up trying to ac-
complish anything in State. At Mineral
Springs, a short distance south OF Mattoon, on
the border OF the Democratic stronghold, they
recently billed meeting for 10000 people. and
{ is estimated that only from three to FIVE hun
dred people were in attendance"
''How is Cleveland regarded in your cityl" the
reporter asked

They Rally to the Support Of Harrison and



Brooklyn Eagle.
Shortly before noon today an old gentleman
quickly entered the Republican headquarters in
Montague street and inquired for the reporters.
He drew from his pocket a report of a meeting
held last evening, which will somewhat surprise
the Democratic W ard leaders. 1t was meeting
for the purpose OF organizing the Ninth Ward
WorkIncmen's Protective League, and the
gariZation proceeded to completion amid per-
feet harmony. The meeting took place in hall
on Bergen street. near Grand avenre John J.
Kennedy was elected president; Michael Grim
minis, vice president; John j. Ryan, recording
and John Murphy. treasurer. Seventy-five
names were enrolled, aud a set Of resolutions
approving of the Chicago platform and declar-
ing that the purpose Of the league was to pro-
tect American labor from competition with the
peuper labor Of Europe passed. Here is
the concluding and most significant paragraph
in the resolutions:
Resolved, That we, the members OF the Ninth w ard
Workingmen's Protection League who have all been

free trade, do pledge earnest support to the no
nees of the national Republican ticket this fall and
that urge ell citizens who their bread by the
sweat of their brow to join cur league and promote
its objects.
The old gentleman who carried the news to
headquarters said: 81 have lived in the Ninth
ward all my life, and have never seen a cam
paign like this The Irish Democrats are badly
scared of free trade, and they going to defeat
it. They will work in this canvass as they
never worked before. 1t is a question Of bread
and butter, and their Democracy has TO take
back seat We organized quietly last night, but
you will be able to hear rs canvassng and shout

mittee 70 canvass other wards OF this city and
form other branches of the league. We will
form a branch in each ward and town, and fill
every branch with Democrats who never voted

will strike blow against FREQ trade this fall.

The Evansville Journal is opening the books
for the benefit Of the Democratic Courier of that
city. which is just now denouncing General
Hovsy for the sake OF Ma.son- On the Both
July 1856. the day after the Republican district
convention that nominated General Hovey for
Congress, the Courier contained this editorial
relating to him under the caption, SHOW Your
Msttle:"
'sThe Republicans Of the First congressional
district assembled in the city yesterday, and
nominated Gen. Alvin P. Hovey their candidate
FOR Congress
"Gsn. Hovsy is, perhaps as well known
a. any resident OF this district, and has
filed more Offices of distinction than any
other man in southern Indiana His abilities
and character are admitted by men of al par
ties, and In selecting him as an opponent to Mr..
Mccullough our Republican friends have un-
doubtedly played the strongest card in their
hand.
This nomination is a challenge TO the best ef-
forts OF the Democracy of the First district II

united and harmonious party, in which every
Individual member will lay aside any remnant

strongest efforts.
snow is the time for every true Democrat to
show the sincerity of his political faith, and to
back it up with his best mstile.'
On the 9th OF August, the same year. the
Courier ha1 this in regard TO General Hovsy:
Nothing can be spoken 10 his praise as q gen.
tlemsn or es q man of distinguished abilities
that the Courier Will not cordially indorse. ard
IL may as well be understood now a. as any
other time that during the campaign upon
which We have just entered this journal will
treat General Hovey with the consideration due
90 him as one of the most distinguished of living
Americans. But the candidate Of the Re-
publican party we shall oppose him to the best
Of our ability in every honorable way. Personal
attachments are not to be considered where
great political consequences are at stake, and
while We admire the man, the Courier will be

New York Trlbune.
The Rev. DR.. Talmaee. just back from an ex-
tensive trip West and South, says to reporter
for the Brooklyn Eagle: "In Indiana, notwith-
standing all that has been said in the newspapers
in regard TO there being no enthvsia sm for their
candidate, have to say that / never saw go
much enthusiasm for any candidate as I saw
among the Republicans for General Harrison
1t is evident that DR.. Talmage doesn't regard
Indiana as a doubtful State. His testimony ia
the more valuable because he himself supports
the Prohibition party, and as between Republic
ans and Democrats he may be regarded as, in a
sense, q non-prejudiced observer.

His Comrades Knew Him.

The readiness with which the Republican
State central committee meets the demands on
il fo- speakers was shown last nisht on the re-
ceipt Of telegram from New Castle, where one,
t stated would be needed to-day the occasion of
General Hoveys visit to that city. The General
himself will speak. bat the crowd it is expected
will he so large as TO require another orator.
General Bussey, OF Nav York, was with Chair
man Huston when the latter received the tele-
gram, and after reading it, he said: "l will
send you over there. Can you go2"
Certainly" replied the General, az am ready
to 60 anywhere 10 help the cause along"
IAN right then, SAID Chairman Huston, and
then turning TO Secretary Ollie: Telegraph
that Gensral Bussey will be there at noon Mon
day.
This meeting will bring together two men
who served together for time during the war,
for General Bussey commanded a brigade in
General Hoveyis division. No one," said he
last night, had better opportunities than for
observing the soldisrly qualities Of General
Hovey. He was courageous and skillful. He
was soldier every inch of him and nothing can
be more absurd than to accuse him Of cowardics.
He was always eager to do his duty and never
: avoided chance TO do that which would make
for him and his division an honorable record.

Bynum the Free-Trade-.

Bynum spoke to n crowd of about 400 people
in the First ward Saturday night, and for an
hour more told his auditors what he knew
about the blessings of free trade as promised in
the Mills bill He followed the line he took at
the Esughvile meeting dealing in sophisti teal
statements and eoujur;ng phrases to mislead
the workngmen from the logic Of protection.
Hs considered European manufacturers shrewd-
Or ;han those Of his own country IN seeking
American trade, for they bad to
have 1t shut up their mills.
All through his speech. upon referring to
the Mills bill he used the pronoun we in a man.
ner which suggested to many perhaps that he
had something to do with its origin. Referring
10 the Golden Club he said that the report that
the club was condsmning Irish home rule was
false. While he might criticise the club he
was not there to denounce it.
While down SOUTH said he, ~ asked the
people how they lived without raising corn and
