TO-DAY the State election takes place
in Arkansas. The canvass has been one
of unusual interest, and the ticket sup
ported by the Labor Unionists, Repub-
icans and Alliance would stand good
chance TO win if there could be a fair
vote and an honest count, but the cleo
ton machinery,is in the hands of the
Democracy. In 1888 the vote for Gov
ernor was: Norwood, Labor, etc., S4,-
233; Eagle, Democrat. 1924. 1t is
claimed that Norwood was elected by
the voting, and Eagle, subsequently, by
the counting.

THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK.

Reports from New York and other GEN.
tiers of distribution are of the most en-
couraging nature. In spite of the strikes
and the disturbing influence thereof, the
seasons business has begun two weeks
earlier than is usually the case, and with
a vim that indicates that the fall and
winter trade will surpass that of past
years. Buyers from all parts of the
country are in the markets ahead of the
season and are purchasing literally for
the seasons trade. The earlier reports
of general short crops, which caused
some hesitancy few weeks ago, have
not been verified by later advices. Crops
all over the country, except in the South,
are short, but the better prices which
staples are now bringing will, it is said,
afford the farmers more money than did
the superabundant harvests of 1889.
Because it did not pay to market corn
and oats, q considerable portion of last
years crop is yet in first hands, The
general industries of the country were
never more active and wage-earners were
never more generally employed or re-
ceiving so liberal compensation. In
other words, the great mass of c0nsum-
ers in the country were never in bet
ter position to become liberal purchasers.
The certainty that the tariff agitation
will be settled by Congress on the gen.
eral basis of the Mckinley bill, with a
reciprocity provision, has Lot only
quieted apprehension but has proved a
sort of tonic, stimulating business and
enterprise. In New York there is some
complaint of scarcity of money. but not

THE African Methodists. in session at
New Albany, have the courage of their con-
victions on the tobacco question. The use
of whisky is so universally acknowl-
edged as an evil that no member of
religious body, particularly no minis
ter, can long retain his good standing if he
is known to be an imbiber. No religious
interests, or personal habits or prejudices
of influential churchmen are interfered
with by a denunciation of intoxicants. and
it 10 the custom of ministerial conferences
to assail the evil with hammer and
tongs. Consideration of the tobacco habit
they fight shy of, as rule, and when the
matter does come up it is handled gingerly.
So many Of the reverend brethren are ad-
dicted to the use of the weed in one form or
another that a prohibitory rule with which
they must comply would be highly incon-
venient. The most radical temperance ad-
vocate does not assert that tobacco-using
bears any comparison with whisky drink
ing in respect to its injurious effects. but
the most inv eterate smoker or chewer has
sneaking certainty that the habit is
filthy one and offensive to
lied community. Neither can he
assert that it is conducive TO piety in any
particular. He simply INDUCES In bad
habit and with self-indulgent spirit re-
fuses TO reform or to admit his error. The
African ministers. however, set an example
that must make their white brothers blush.
With no beating around the bush, with no
excuse OF apology for the proceeding. they
denounce the use of cigarettes. cigars and
tobacco as demoralizing and unhealthy;
and, with no loop-hole left for escape. they
calmly resolve that no man shall be re-
ceived into their conference who will not
promise to abstain from the use of tobacco
in any form. In the face of this advanced
position, it does not become the white man
to talk of the slow progress of the negro
in the ways of refinement and civilization.

BROADER PROTECTION.

Those Democratic editors and plat
form makers who have been quoting Mr..
Blaine so approvingly since his letters to
Senator Frye were published, must feel
just bit silly if they have read his re-
cent speech in Maine. For Republicans,
reaffirms hrs full belief in the Repub-
lican policy of protection, which he has
done SO much to sustain and popularize.
He did not feel it necessary to advocate
protection, but thinks that 1T is enough
for him to recall its victories. To that
end, he calls attention to the results of
the high duty on silks, which are that
silk goods are much better and
much cheaper since the industry has
been established in this country.
His speech is an argument in
favor of reciprocal trade with those
countries which want our products
and whose products we consume in
large quantities. He makes it clear that
such reciprocity is not in the nature of
free trade, but is an extension of the
general theory of protection. He does
not propose to open our markets to our
competitors, but to give to countries
which produce the articles we need and
do not produce, free markets in ex-
change for similar advantages for our
agricultural and other products. In
other words, Mr.. Blaine's speech sus-
talns the proposition which the Senate
finance committee has offered as an
amendment to the tariff bill, by which
our markets will be free to the sugar,
coffee, tea, etc., of those countries which
extend to US free markets or discrimi-
mating duties on our products which
they need. There is no doubt that the
Republicans in Congress are all in favor
Of that policy, and that it is put forth
by Mr.. Blaine as the policy of the adj
ministration. of which he is member.
1t is simply an extension OF the pro-
tective pOlicy-a broader protection.

versation between DePew and Gaffney
followed: ....
Gaffney-We have come to talk over
the strike on the New York Central
road.
DePew-Im afraid there is nothing to
talk about. The strike is virtually over
now.
Gaffney-The strike is not over, be-
cause all men on the road who are mem
bers of labor organizations have quit
work and are now out.
DePew-They have chosen to resign
their positions. Webb, who was man
aging the road in my absence, took
new men in their places when they quit
work. His action has been sustained by

that the strike had been begun without

work that was urgently necessary had
been done by men whom the company
retained in the docks. Blacklegs were

Wy"ming's First State Election.

CHEYENNE, Sept. 1.-THE first state
election in Wyoming came off to-day.
The utmost enthusiasm was shown by
both political parties, but it is doubtful
if the vote will be very large. The Aus
traliau ballot system was introduced for
the first time with the registration sys-
tenn. Until within a few days ago it was
understood that the law contained a
clause to the effect that when, through
absence or illness, anyone failed to regis
ter they would be permitted to swear in
their votes on election day. Although a
clause to this effect passed both houses
of the last legislature and appears in
both journals, for some un%accountable
reason it fails to appear in the enrolled
copy ')f the law or in the printed copy.
This omission DISTINGUISHED a very large
number of voters. In 1888 the total vote
cast was 1S,00S. Carey, republican, for
delegate to congress received a majority
of 2,942. At this hour 90 p. M it is
very difficult to tell much about the re-
suit. Some of the precincts are over $50
miles from the county seats and compar-
atively little can be heard from them.
The republicans claim the state by 1900
while the democrats claim it by from 800
to 1900.
