make the prediction that, despite

as solid next November as it was
four years ago. = The hopes OF
the peoples party are centered upon

that the colored voters Of the South
favor the election of Weaver and

A CHILD OF REPUBLICANLSN

Evidence all along the line clearly
proves one Of two things, that the so
called third party is the offspring of
the republican party or that it is an
ally, in strong sympathy and secret
cooperation with it.
Its so called platform, or system
of demands will go very far to estob.
lish the motherhood, of the radical
party to this rather nondesc ript
child, the complete tendency to
centralized ownership in the national
government, of all railroads. tele-
graph systems, the banks and bank
ing houses, means nothing short of
q complete Capitalization of power
in the general government and this
is the very essence of the politics
and doctrine Of the republican party.
That this so called third party is
an ally of the republican party, is
beyound doubt. The developments
occurring every day wherever it
has the leastfoot hold are conclusive.
The allurements and decisions are
calculated to deceive the too credu-
lous. In the case of the democrats
in convention, of Kansas where be-
cause of the intolerance Of the
Kansas radicals, and the political
oppression put upon the demo
Gratis; thus resolved, that, they
would nominate ticket but consort
with the so called peoples party
(third party. But the me-honored
and time-tried democrats of that
state, looking through the thin
robe Of assumed political virtue
worn by the so called | came out
like democrats and placed true
and full democratic ticket in the field;
and these men will be far more
glorious in defeat if that shall be
there lot, than their brethren who
had pooled their birthright with
this sport Of mushroom growth even
in the questionable victory they may
win.

and tried during Florida's darkest
days, when it almost seemed that
the light OF restored liberty and SELF
government, would never again be
ours, be warned against being thus de.
ceived. Remember your sufferings.

Same period 500 Per cent. : against
m increase II the rest Of the Oountr !
of only 1913 per cent. In pig iron
manufacture the South's output
jumped from 451, 900 tons in 1881 to
,014, 900 in 1s91--a gain Of s2s per
cent. as against gain for the rest OF
the country Of seventy-eight per
cent; in other words in 1881, the
North and West made more than nine
times as much iron as the South; in
1891 they made less than four times
as much. The increase in the num-
Der of mill operatives in the South
was 1876 per cent, as against an in
crease in New England of II per
cent. And so in every line of produc-
tive activity the marvellous rapidity
of increase is explained, showing that
in assessed valuations the property
Of the South has in this period very
nearly doubled, and increased from
1887 per capita to $27l-a record
that is probably without parallel in
the whole history of substantial in
dustrial growth. And in spite of the
temporary depression caused by an
over-production of cotton, the in
crease goes on.
Would it continue if a Force Bill
we're to go into operation?
This question is answered in the
same number of The Forum by Mr..
Hoke Smith of Atlanta, Ga. The
negro is the laborer of the South. He
has made the cotton; he has built the
railroads. Everything depends on
the quiet and industry of the negro.
And the negro has done his work
with effect, precisely in proportion
to the absence of friction between the
races. He made little or no progress,
and the country made little or no
progress, during the days of recon
struction. A force bill would bring
back substantially the same state of
affairs as existed during the recon
struction days; and southern in
dustrial development would be
checked and thrown back. So Mr..
Smith, himself a conservative and
energetic representative of younger
generation of successful southern
men argues with point and force.

SHALL WE HAVE A FORCE BILL


The most direct, but by no means
the most important effect of force
bill, would be ON the industrial pro-
gress Of the South. How rapid that
progress now is-rapid beyond the
realization even of the men that are
bringing it about-is set forth in a
compact article in the August mum
her of The Forum, by Mr.. Richard
HI. Edmonds, late editor of the Manu-.
facturers' Record at Baltimore, hose
lies study has been given to the
subject. Among the most significant
facts set forth by Mr.. Edmonds are
these:
Since 1881, the corn crop Of the
South has increased seventy.five pei
cent, as against seventy-one pei
cent. increase in the rest of the
country; the cotton crop has increased
from Eve and half million to nine
million bales--an increase in value,
even with the present low price, Of
two hundred millions of dollars; III
1891, there were nearly $4,000 miles
OF railroad in the South, against less
than q, 900 in l8sl-a gain Of eighty.

for the moment that III But three 81
the administration officials had been
renominated At Tampa), in tho fol
lowing choice language: s.By their
psndering to corporate power, by
ignoring the will of the masses, and
catering to the demands Of the
classes, these men, trusted by as az
leaders, have produced a crisis in
our ranks which if not met with and
overcome in this campaign may turn
us over to our opponents" And he
added the charge that the present
democratic state administration has
performed "never one single act that
has given satisfaction to the masses
of the people,
Yet these are the same men we
nominated at Tampa and whom Mr..
Abrams is going to work and vote
for! And il is these same men whom
Mr.. Abrams, in the next sentence
charges as being 'to-day directly
responsible for the third party, and
for the nomination of a ticket in op-
position to our nominees, and while
there is much in their ~ platform
II it doesn't seem to be his platform
that l utterly disapprove of, there
is also much that I am compelled
[against his will?] to approve"
| He asserts that ";he scandal
arising from the recent convention at
Tampa" meaning the groundless
and improved charges of bad faith
with the third partyites who entered
the convention as democrats and
left it as traitors, is mot the least OF
the causes of the present trouble. "
Assuredly Mr.. Abrams democracy
is of most peculiar pattern if it
does not prevent him from endorsing
and emphasizing the arguments of
the third party enemies of democ-
racy. He even goes further, and
adopting the very transparent cant
of the Baskin- Weeks manifesto, he
declaims that 1--WE have the right
to fix the responsibility where
it belongs, to express our indigna-
ton, to fasten the seal Of our dis
appreciation upon the wrong that
has been done to the third party ex-
democratic traitors] so that we may
prevent a recurrence of it." Can
anyone tell from this balderdash
what Mr.. Abrams really is?
This extraordinary effusion winds
up with a powerful appeal TO his
hearers (who have deliberately put
themselves outside the party } to ire
form the party, but we must not
forsake it!'' Hard hitting that, for
those who had already forsaken it!
He pays a glowing tribute to Judge
Mitchell, whose nomination he and
his hearers and their organ, the
Times, Union so bitterly opposed
that they descended to the lowest Of
political practices, such as would
have disgraced republicans; and
closes with ludicrous and theatre
cal reference to Mann's candidacy
for congress, declaring that sit fills
me with positive awe to think the
great democracy Of this district is
brought to such a pass as to have
anyone ask if there is any danger of
Mr.. Mann's election to congress!'
Such is the piteous spectacle of a
democrat" attempting to make q
speech to independents, whose ad-
vocate he is, and with whom he is in
fullest sympathy, without seeming
to array himself on their side in
open opposition to the democratic
party.

GUARDED BY DETECTIVES.
Precautions which the President Does Not
Altogether Like.

ROCHESTER,, N. Y, May 29.-Notwith
standing that the skies were overcast and
threatening, the streets in the vicinity of
President Harrison's temporary abode
were thronged all day with people who
followed his movements with the liveli-
est interest. The President had an early
breakfast with Secretary Noble, Col.
Ernst and George W. Boyd, after which
he attended service at the brick Presby-
terrain church. Several thousand people
gathered along the route, but made no
demonstration as the President walked
by with DIR. Hovey, followed by Secreta-
ry Noble, Col. Ernst, Gen. Reynolds,
ex-Congressman Baker and Congressman
Greenleaf, Curtis and Henderson. The
church was elaborately decorated with
flowers, tropical plants and national col
ors. 1t was packed to the doors and
hundreds of people unable to get in. re-
manned outside during the entire SER
vice. Rev. DR.. Taylor, the pastor, offic-
lated and preach on 'sThe Temptations of
Christian" The President lunched
privately at the hotel and then went out
for walk with Col. Ernst He
went only short distance.
Later in the afternoon the President
went out for drive with Dr. W. Pow
ers, and visited the latter's art gallery.
In the evening, special memorial services
were held at the Central Presbyterian
church, where President Harrison and
Gov. Flower listened to the impressive
sermon by the pastor Rev. II. Fl.
Stobbing. The church was beautifully
decorated and crowded with Grand
Army men in uniform, who escorted the
distinguished officials to and from the
church. The streets tonight were
thronged with people from out of town.
Detectives engaged by the local commit
tee are in constant attendance on the
President. 1t is novel experience for
him to be guarded in this way and he is
not altogether pleased at the innovation,
as he does not regard it necessary.

BIDDEFoRD's TRoUBLEsoMEc COURT.
The Lack of Clerk Again Makes Trouble
With the Records.

BIDDEFoRD, May 2s.-An important
ruling was made by Judge Libbey in
theISupreme. Court at Alfred, yesterday,
which may have the effect of ex-
cluding the entire criminal docket,
so far as Biddeford is concerned.
In the case of the Boston &
Maine VS.. Deputies Small and Harmon,
for trespass, Judge Cram of the Bidde-
ford Municipal Court testified that he
had issued the warrant at his home
and offered his docket in ev-
idence, but it appearing in an
swer to inquiry that the entrance thereon
were all made by Capt. Forbush and the
judges wife, and that the jndge himself
had never made single entry upon it, it
was not admissible as evidence.
The municipal court of Biddeford has
no clerk, and the present ruling is in line
with former ruling, which created the
naturalization trouble.
