fortunately that State has the Repuoli-
can habit, and it is too much to expect
that it will be permanently reformed at
the coming election.
In Iowa the condition Of affairs is
extremely interesting. A few years
ago the Republican majority IN Iowa
was overwhelming. Now all that is
changed, and the State, il not doubtful,
is at least debatable. Republican de-
moralization, high taxes and unsatls-
factory legislation have brought about
a revolution. Two years ago the Demo-
Gratis elected their candidate for COVER
nor. Their success was due mainly to
the attitude of the Farmers Alliance
which endorsed the Democratic candl-
date. Governor BoIEs has been unani-
mously renominated, and he is now
carrying on vigorous canvass, making
eight speeches a week. Should he be
reelected next month, Iowa can no
longer Dc COuuG6u dS q SOPNN@
State, but will have to be put in the
doubtful column, even in a national
election.
We have more hopes Of Iowa as
Democratic State than we have of Mas
sachusetts, though the Democrats in
the last named State are carrying on
campaign of marked vigor and activity
with every prospect OF success. Never
theless, Massachusetts cannot be de-
pended on TO vote with the Democrats
in national election. For fifty years
its electoral vote has been given to the
Republicans, and unless the Democratic
majority in November shall be large
enough to possess unusual significance,
there is not very much hope of Demo-
cratic victory in that State in 1892.

WILL APPEAL TO CONGRESS.
Chicago Trades Unions Fighting the
Worlds Fair Managers


CHICAGO, October 26.-Hostility to
the Worlds Fair management has been
revived In some Of the trades unions OF
the city, and it is now proposed on the
part of the unions to carry the war
against the Fair to the National House
of Representatives, and defeat. IL pos
sible, and further appropriations from
that source.
At the last meeting Of the Carpenters
Council, which is the central body OF all
the local carpenters unions, a commit
tee was appointed to confer with the
other trade and labor organizations
of the city for the purpose Of getting
the movement under way at once.
The matter will be brought up
before the Trade and Labor
Assembly, the building trades, and, In
fact, every representative labor organ
ization in the city, at their next meet
ing. 1t is also intended to ask the CO.
operation Of labor organizations
throughout the United States to exert
their influence with their representa-
tives in Congress to prevent any addi-
tional appropriations for the Worlds
Columbian Exposition.
The reason given for this action is,
according to the leaders, that the local
managers OF the Fair discriminate
against members of trade and labor
unions in employing men to carry on
the work at the Fair grounds,

The New York World is at the head
Of movement 70 raise money for the
purpcss Of rsscuing Mrs. MAVERICK, an
American woman who was convicted in

convicted Of the murder Of her husband
on the charge Of an insane judge to a
Jury intimidated By his infamed zeal
against the all but friendless American
woman.
The British home secretary, on look

that she was not proved to be guilty OF
murder, and hsreupOn committed her
