THE "FoRcE,, BILL.

Congressman Ewart of North Carolina deserves the thanks of every honest American citizen for his bold and noble opposition to the revolutionary election bill. Mir Ewart, who is a republican. began his remarks on Saturday by say ing that he well knew the penalty he would have to pay for his speech and vote. Then he added these memorable declarations:
 Unfortunately, politics has come to such pass that under the rule of King Caucus men vote for measures that, deep down in their hearts, they do not believe in. They know, deep down in their hearts, that this is as damnable and vicious piece of legislation as ever was put on the statute books. As to the negro's political rights-speaking for my own state-no republican in the state, black or white, is prevented from cast ing his vote. The elections there are absolutely fair.
 Yesterday the feature of the debate was the speech of Mir Coleman oi Louisiana, another republican. He said that although he was a republican he was opposed to the bill because it would not accomplish the purpose for which ii was intended-a free ballot and fail count. The war was over and tho south had entered upon an era of indus trial progress, and he was opposed tC any legislation which would retard it.
 There are probably twenty-five re publicans in the house who believe as dC these two gentlemen, but it IS doubtful whether half dozen of them will hay, the courage to shake off the yoke an' vote against the bill,

 WASHINGTON, July 1.-The opponents of the Federal Election bill are singu- larly confident that they will be able to defeat it in the House. They are getting their last votes here and are refusing all pairs. Mir. Kerr is the only Penn sylvania Democrat who is likely to be absent, as he is to go to the Scranton convention. He has been appealed to to be here in time to vote tomorrow It is feared by the Republican leaders that a number of their members will dodge the vote.
 It is certain that three Re publicans will vote against the bill, and the capitol gossips have it that several other members of the majority party also oppose it, either by direct vote or by absenting themselves when the vote is taken.
 The members who will surely vote against the bill are Messrs. Ewart, of North Carolina, Coleman, of Louisiana, and Lehlbach, of New Jersey.
 It is said that seven other Republi- cans-three from the South, one from New England, and three from the West will vote ''no." It is known that some of these are opposed to the bill, but whether or not they will sacrifice party interests and vote against tbe I measure is doubtful. Less than ten breaks among the Republicans in the House would defeat the bill.

Minority Report on the Mckinley B.u.

WASHINGTON, July 1.-Senator Vance said today that the minority report on the Mckinley bill had not yet been prepared. But" he continued, "you can depend upon its being thoroughly Democratic, and where duties have been increased or where they remain stationary the demand for reduction will be made, and where they have been reduced we will demand still lower rates. As far as Secretary Blaine's views are concerned, I don't believe we will say anything abo ut them, unless we indorse as much of them as are Democratic"

IT will greatly surprise some people to be assured that the great city of New York is really growing better. Most people are ready to believe almost any thing to the discredit of the metropolis, and the popular impression is that the city is sinking more and more deeply into iniquity. The city has not, how ever, any ground for his belief. Ordinary observation would compel any disinter- ested person to state that in many re- specrs the city is better than it was ten years ago. The security afforded to person and property is vastly greater than it was. The section of the city which it is not safe to traverse alone have been greatly curtailed in number and extent. It is now safe for a lady tC walk unattended at night in the large portion fo the city. There is not as much drinking of ,intoxicants as there was ( decade ago. The social evil has beer restricted in marked degree. All these statements are true as matter of abso' lute comparison, without regard to th' fact that there has been an increase Of population during that period of at leas 100000. As to the figures of crime WI have those presented by the board oi police justices. Their annual repor states that there were less arrests fo felonious assault in 1889 than in 1880 fifty-five less arrests for burglary; % les arrests for receiving stolen property ITO less arrests for simple assault; 35 less arrests for petty larceny: and 92 less arrests for intoxicotion.

THE doctors at the Pasteur institute in New York are doing a big business attending to the cases of dog bitten peo- pie who go there for treatment. A boy who had been bitten by dog was re- fused admission Friday because case of hydrophobia had developed in him to an extent that favorable result was not thought probable. A patient from Maine who sought admission was re- fused for the same reason, so that the claims of the physicians at the Pasteur institute seems to be that they may pre- vent the development of hydrophobia rather than that they can cure the dis ease after it has developed.

FORWARD TO VICTORY.

Today the great battle for the redemp-
ton of California from misrule will be
fought. The HERALD has no fear of the
issue. On one side are money and cor
poration influence; on the other stand
the masses. 1t is entirely in the power
of the unbought voter to throw the hosts
of arbitrary power prone to the earth.
Stanford and his sack can do much, but
it is impossible to buy a whole people.
Scrutinize your ticket. See that it is
Democratic from top to bottom, and put
it in the box early. Spurn any PROPOSE
ton to trade name on it. The Demo-
cratic state ticket is invincible and every
man on it should receive an equal show.
Pond will be the next governor and his
own city viii give him majority of
from 1000 to 1900. Stand by your local
nominees and all will be we'll. Victory

THE programme of Mr.. Bob Northam.
in announcing, in reply to respectful
appeal OF the Democratic county central
committee, that Mr.. Markham would
read no letters, may suit portion of the
Republican party, but it certainly will
not please the more intelligent, consci-
entious and manly portion of that Or
ganization. Whois Mr.. Markham that.
in his aspirations for office, he should
be dispensed from the ordinary obliga-
tions of candidate, to meet his fellow
citizens and frankly respond to their
interrogatories Upon what meat has
this modern Caesar fed that ne should
set himself above an immemorial rule
which Clay and Webster did not disdain
to respect? He has failed to meet the
"Old Pard" letter issue because he has
so enmeshed himself in indecision and
falsehood that he is hopeless of emerg-
ing from the ordeal with honor. The

Energetic Work of Women.

The Chicago Women's Moral and Edu.
cational society met in Farwell hall.
More than hundred women were pres
ent. Mrs. Ezra A. Cook, who presided,
said that two weeks before few women
had met at the Palmer house to see what
could be done in the matter of having
the Bible read in the public schools. It
had been determined by the women to
make strong effort to have the Bible
read in the. schools, and this union had
been formed. Miss Stevens reported
that several of the Baptist ministers had
signed the petition, and Mrs. Cragin said
she had received the signatures of forty
two Congregational ministers.
Mrs. Cook said one of the great needs
of having the Bible read in the schools
was the alarming increase of young
criminals. She believed the absence of
religion was one cause of it.
The reports of the women who had
charge of the petitions in the churches
were then called for, and twenty-five
churches showed between three and four
thousand signatures. Of this number
one church, the Swedish Baptist, repre-
sented by Mrs. Nelson, furnished 1850
names. Chicago Herald

Honors Showered Upon Gladstone by
His Scotch Admirers.
LONDON, Nov. 3.-Mr. Gladstone has
declined to stand as candidate for the
rectorship of the University of Aber-
deem. He gives his advanced age as his
reason for declining the nomination.
Gladstone started on his return from
Scotland today. At Montrose, large
number of friends gave him an enthusi-
astic reception. The scene was re-
peated at Arbroath. His Dundee
admirers presented him walking-stick
and luncheon basket. When at Pee
bles, delegation of workingmen pre-
sented him travelling rug. At this
place Gladstone delivered short speech,
and referred to speech by Lord Hart
ington, at Liberal-Unionist meeting
at Edinburgh, Friday. Harrington,
Gladstone said, was evidently not we'll
satisfied with the result of his direct
ness. The only doubt in Hartington's g
mind was whether the time had arrived
to surrender the Liberal l-Unionist party.
Gladstone declared that Harrington was
broken down and his followers dread
fully broken up by the results of the re-
cent elections for members of the house
of commons, which were most satis-
factory to the Liberal party.

By IT'S matchless news-gathering facil-

this morning is able to lay before it's
readers a most intelligent summary of
the issues at stake in today's elections
in all the states where the results are
not foregone conclusions. The great
Northwest is the arena where the battle
is most tiercely fought. There are num-
erous new elements in the contest this
year whose effects on the results will be
studied with interest by all those
who pay attention to politics. The far
mers' organizations in many states
afford a subject of profound interest.
The canvass of General Palmer, in Illi-

THE Republicans who think they are
all the people, and who rely SO much on
Saturday nights fanfare, buckram,
noise and lavish display of the sack in
politics, might well reconsider their de-
cision if they saw the gathering at the
pavilion last night. No trainloads were
brought in from Santa Barbara and
other remote points to swell the num-
bers. No rockets were sent up to swell
the multitude. No foreign attractions
were imported to make the mouths OF the
unthinking cape at man distinguished
merely by being rich. A few plain
citizens OF our own city, relying on their
popularity and brains, made quiet an
nouncement that they would discuss the
issues OF the campaign before their
neighpors, and lol the great building
was filled with an intelligent and en-
thusiastic assemblage of voters whose
ballots will be backed today by brain and
conscience. and who were not there
last night to scent the sack for
today. For, maugre the fact that
Saturday nights assembly con-
tanned a very large number of most re-
spectacle and highly honest voters, yet
the rest OF it was molly multitude,
whose sole interest in politics is self-in-
terest, and whose minds can be reached
