M'KINLEY'S FIGHT.
He First Refers to the Gerreman-
der Law.
BENEFITS OF THE TARIFFS LAW
Shown by Numerous Misstatcments- says
Prices Have Been Lowered-A Case
of self Praise

MILLERsBURG, o., Oct. 7.-Congressman
Mckinley opened his campaign in the Six
teenth district here this evening. This is
the county seat of Holmes county, one of
the Democratic strongholds, added to his
district by the gerrymander bill passed last
winter. The major was greeted by a fine
audience. Major Mckinley spoke briefly
of the gerrymander bill and devoted most
OF his remarks TO discussion of the tariff.
In the course of his remarks he said there
is not an item upon which protective duties
have been laid that has not been reduced
in price to the people who buy.
"The Republican party fifteen years
ago gave the country free coffee and tea and
has now given 1t free sugar. We have. as
result.a free and untaxed breakfast table
The duties under this bill are lower than
those OF any bill since 1851 We have re-
duced duties where ever 1T would not inter
fere with or iniure home industry and have
increased them only where protection TO
our own manufacturing interests demanded
it. The duties on wool have all been made
protective. If in 1888 you farmers of Ohio
defeated the Republican party for a re-
duction of the wool tariff as the Democrats
then claimed, tits your duty now to vote for
it.
1.-THE Republican party has not only re-
stored the tariff of 1868, but has made it
stronger by high tariff On all substitutes
for wool. The American market is the
best in the world, and it has been made so
and can only be so sustained by protection.
They say we have increased the price Of
everything. / would like to know what we
nave increased the duties on except cham
payne, brandy, plushes, velvets and the
luxuries of wealth. These and farm pro-
ducts about comprise the list"

BELLEVUE, Idaho, Oct. Especial tele-
gram to THE HERALD. The aftermath of
the election is interesting in Logan county.
Gideon Pettus, Democrat, is defeated for
assessor by seven votes, Hastings winning
the prize. P. M. Bruner, of Haley, Re
publican, is elected district attorney for
the district composed of Alturas, Gilmore,
Logan and Cassia counties by six votes,
defeating Guy c. Barnum, of this county,
who has ignored the law for the past ten
years and contented himself with raising
peaches in the Snake river bottom. Bru-
ner, who is lawyer of ability, consider
ing that he had walkover, was loyal
enough to his party to stump the
rest of the state and ignore his own canvass.

six majority, for now Mendoza precinct of

V1ScESSEs, Iud., Oct. 1T was quickly
demonstrated that the village Of Washing

old friends of the President. An old gray

for your grandfather, then voted for you
and 1 hope, Ben, I'll have chance to vote

crowd. The President assured his visitor
that to lis old friends he hoped always to
remain Ben, rs Of yore. and the crowd
loudly applauded the sentiment. This en-
couraged an old lady to exclaim as she
grasped the Presidents hand: Il feel as
though as am related to you, Mr.. Harri-
son. Your grandfather and mine ate roast
turkey and pig together, and that makes
us related, doesn't it!'' Great laughter.
The President bowed an affirmative to this
logic as the train moved rapidly out.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 7-Governor Knapp,
of Alaska, in an interview says: The law
prohibiting the sale and manufacture of
dead letter, except as to Indians. The rea-
son for the inef1iclency of the law, the gov
ernor says is that prosecutions would be
of no avail. Grand juries refuse to indict,
and petit jurors refuse to convict.
Legislation which would provide more
effective machinery for the en-
forcement Of the present. law would un-
boubtediy afford a solution of the perplex
ing question. He calls attention to thein
adequacy of the laws for the administra-
ton of justice, etc, and recommends that
a commission, consisting in part at least,
of gentlemen acquainted with the country
and its need, be appointed to prepare a
short code OF special laws to be submitted
to Congress.
The work of the government schools, of
which there are fourteen. the governor
says, is measurabiy satisfactory, though
the attendance is not large, tho children
preferring to hunt ard tisn and the parents
being Indifferent.
About one hundred thousand full sized
seal skins were taken by the Alaska Com
mercial company during a year under their
contract with the governments, and prob
ably half as many more were captured at
sea and stolen by poachin vessels. Other
furs, snch as bear, miEks, otter, etc, are
taken in large numbers. The cod fishing
industry, though not Insignificant is far
from what it should be. Some Of the ex-
ports last year are estimated below: Whale

A DIPLOMATIC INCIDENT.
Report that France Win Take Notice Of the
Welcome to the Comte de Paris

Especial TO TIE Observation-Disclosures Dispatch
NEW YORK, Oct IA Press special from
Washington says President Harrison has
been apprised that the French government
is likely to make the recent welcome of the
Comte de Paris in New York city matter
of official diplomatic inquiry Collector
Eghardt was represented in the New York
papers as welcoming the comte in this Ian
guage: 81 am instructed, sir, by the
President of the United States govern
ment at Washington, to welcome you to
these shores and to extend to you every
courtesy in my power"
As the Comte de Paris is the head of the
house OF Orleans. and aspires TO place that
dynasty on the throne in France to the
destruction of the present Republican gov
eminent, the French government repre-
senJatives st New York and Washington
have been much DISTURBED by the. character
OF this seemingly official welcome of the
rote6 royalist. President Harrison has
UnofficiallY stated that neither he nor the
government directed or instructed such a
welcome to be extended TO the Comte de
Paris, and the Official inquiry from the
French government which is likely to be
made Will be met by an official disavoWal.
A state department official said today it
was perfectly apparent TO any one versed
in diplomacy that the president could NOT
have instructed the collector to extend
such an Official welcome, because it is not
the way in which such things are done.
NJ. Roustau, the French minister, is in Eu-
| rope, and at the Legation they would neither
deny nor affirm the rumor that France will
move il the matter, nor would they say
whether or not protest had been made
against the 90 iector's action. AT the state

Secretary Window, however, seemed TO
treat the matter as joke, saying that while
he had heard something of it, he had no Of
