Gen. j. fS. Weaver SanEuine of the Future
of His Party.
DEs MONIES, Ia, Nov. 17.-Gen. j. B.
Weaver, candidate for president on the
peoples party ticket, has issued a
lengthy address to the voters of that
party declaring that the organization
is but little behind the republican party
in the number of states carried and viii
doubtless hold the balance of power in
the senate; has doubled its adherents
in the house of representatives.
and secured control of a num-
Der of state governments hold
the balance of power in a major
ity of the states, has aroused n spirit OF
political independence among the peO-
pie of the northwest, gained large
following in every state in the south
and has in Kansas, a state containing
more union soldiers than any other,
elected a One-armed ex-confederate sol
dier of the peoples party to represent
the state at large in congress. He says
that the annihilation almost of that
party organization leaves the former
adherents of that party free to ally
themselves with the great anti-nOnOp-
oly and industrial movement
In Gen. Weaver's opinion, the violent
political storms of 1SsS and 1892 which
frst swept the democratic and then the
republican party from power in spite OF
the weight of patronage which they
carried, signify a turbulent condition
of the political atmosphere which plain
ly foreshadows an approaching crisis
He urges that the work of organization
of the peoples party be now pushed
with energy throughout all the states

CAT AND PARROT.
They Form a Partnership for the Division
of the SpoIls.

of the Spoils.
In a San Francisco. show window
an extraordinary encounter between
a cat and a parrot amused crowd
for an hour the other day. A mouse
was running about pursued by both
cat and parrot, and the tri-cornered
chase was so energetically conducted
as to endanger the large panes of glass.
The cat was brindle beast with bad
eye and generally dissipated appear
ance; not old, but very fuzzy. The
parrot was wicked to degree. and
during the hunt kept mp an animated
running commentary on the proceed
ings. The cat would creep towards
the wretched mouse, while the parrot
headed the prey off on another side,
Tapping its wings. When the cat sue
ceeded in coming almost within spring.
ing distance the mouse ran wildly to-
ward the parrot, and that evil bird
made many futile attempts to grab it
as il passed.
The cat finally nipped the mouse by
the back, and then the parrot shut its
mandibles upon the head of the cap
tured mouse, and a pull-cat pull-parrot
time ensued. that would have lasted
indefinitely if the mouse had not been
torn in two When that result had as
sured to each toothsome morsel, the
parrot carried his bit of mouse to a
perch on a brOOmstick, where he de-
voured every portion of the head and
forequarters of the mouse. The cat
was placed in the window when very
young. and was adopted by the parrot.
The bird has cared for its feline mate
for some months until now pussy is
well toward maturity. But the parrot
persists in displaying the same sOlici-
tude for its charge as when tabby was
first opening its eyes. Hours of each
day are spent by the parrot in biting
and smoothing the cats fur. Every
portion, from the eyes to the tip of the
tail. is carefully cleaned and arranged.
In the mornings the pair are allowed
out on the floor of the establishment
and indulge i'll most absurd antics, oc-
casionally verging on rough play. at
which the parrot has all the best of it.

Pensions and the Deficiency.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1Z-COmmissioner
Raum, of the pension bureau, in an in
terview, in statement made in regard
to the heavy pension roll and the large
deficiency that would have to be met,
said that the assertion that deficiency
of s36, 900, 900 would have to be met was
preposterous, as the workings of the
Office could not elevate it to that figure.
While the pension roll is on the increase
now, owing to the new laws, 1t would,
he thought, reach maximum figure IN
two or three years, and then a decrease
would take place. Gen Raum SAID ne
could not perceive that he was IN any

votes on Cleveland and Harrison, with
Davis ahead OF Harrison. and Mofiat
still farther ahead. The difficulty in
comparing or in making up full returns
by this time began to be apparent. No
body could form an idea how these
figures we're last time and pretty soon
all quit guessing in disgust
The surprising thing about 1t all was
tina, the count was so late in being
completed. II was supposed the re-
duced number Of votes to precinct
would facilitate the count, but instead
it came in later than ever before, and
in such chaotic condition that no.
body could guess anything about it.
At eleven o'clock three precincts were
in, and at about l. about nine OF them
had reported
Scarcely a precinct had made its re-
turns right. Nearly every one had for
gotten to have the judges sign their
names on the bags continuing the bal.
lots, as the law requires. This caused
annoying delays in every case.

AS TO THE RESULT.

Nothing DeilnltclS 'certnlnabie About
Ohio County's Vote.
At2a m. it was impossible to form
any definite opinion as to how Ohio
county had gone The returns were
slow in coming in, and were scattering,
and owing to the different method of
voting this year and four years ago
comparisons were impossible until a
district was completed. 1t looked at
o'clock as il no district would be com.
plete for less than an hour or SO, II
then.
The Democrats claimed everything
confidently, although there was nothing
in the known figures which showed any
reason to justify their claim.
A leading Democratic politician said
a little after l Il. IN. that Cleveland.
would carry Ohio county by 100, and
MacCorkle would be u little ahead OF
that. lie thought Pendleton was also
leading his ticket. Howard and Blanch-
ard he considered surely elected and
all four of the Democratic Legislative
candidates safe. Franzhoim, he said,
would scratch through.
A little later Republican who had
seen ali the figures in. and sized them
up as well as he could, told the repor-
ter that he was not prepared to con-
cede anything as to the county. On the
official returns, he said Ohio county
might 90 either way, Ii the Demo-
Gratis had won it was by q small major
ity, while 80 far MoiIat had run 10S
ahead OF his ticket, which would indi-
cate his election by at least $50 ma
jority.
The precincts that were in indicated
so little that it was not worth while to
print the figures.
On "a out Of 81 precincts received at
a. M, Moflat was ahead OF Harrison
% votes,
Pendlcton, on the returns for Fulton
precinct, Centre district and one pre-
cinct in Richland, the only basis OF
comparison available at that hour, had
made slight gains over 1880, but wheth:
err these were actual or apparent could
only be conjectured.

the text OF Attorney General Milier's
telegram;
Hon. homgs O. Jones, Montgomery, Ala:
Your telegram OF yesterday received
this morning, and hasten to answer.
/ must accept the decision OF the su-
preme court OF the United States as the
authoritative construction OF the
United States statutes, rather than the
decision OF inferior courts. In the Sic
bold case. 100 United States reports, on
page 37S, find the second count OF the
Indictment against GUIDE and Tucker,
which was for obstructing "the full and
free attendance and presence" and
'the full and free access OF the same
deputy marshal to the same poll oil
election contrary" to section BOZ, re-
yised statutes of the United States. The
conviction OF this court was upheld by
the supreme court, thereby sustaining
the right OF deputy marshals to free
access to the polls. Judge Hughes
opinion ante-dates this decision, and
Judge Brewers attention appears not
to have been called 10 the Siebold case.
must therefore take the statute as
construed in the Siebold case as the
paramount law, and under the decision
the right of the marshal and his general
and special deputies to free access to
the polls" whenever necessary to order
to discharge the duties imposed upon
them by law is clear Moreover, can
not agree that the state officials are to
the judges as the necessity for such
free access or presence at such polls"
But while hold these views have
instructed the marshals that great eau
ton should be used to avoid a conflict
and that unless necessary in the per-
Torrance OF the duties enjoined by the
statutes, their deputies should not wan
tonly insist on remaining in the cleo
ton booths, but as officers of the peace
should SO far as consistent with the
discharge OF their duty, avoid any con-
troversy on the premises. In conclu-
sion permit me to say land l think you
will agree with mel that no good citi-
zen will be more reluctant to accept an
act of Congress within its adiudged
constitutional sphere as law OF his
country, and binding on his conscience,
than an act of his state legislature with
in its proper sphere.

THE SUNDAY QUIET .
or Yesterday Was Broken By
Cheers and Howls
ON THE STEETS LAST NIGHT.
Immense Crowds Walt Patiently
Around the Newspaper oRces to
Hear the News---Ihe Interest Mani
tested in the Result Intense-.-Big
Audiences at Both Opera Houses.

The quiet that has prevailed through
out this remarkably quiet campaign
was broken last night by howls, the
blowing OF horns and cheers from
thousands of throats Tor Harrison and
Cleveland, just as the news favored one
or tho other candidate. Immense
crowds surrounded the newspaper off
ces and patiently waited for news. AT
the Grand Opera House a big audience
was present to witness "The Postmas-
ter" and the interest was divided be-
tween the actor and the election re-
turns which were read from the stage.
Katherine Rober in "a Heroine in
Rags" entertained crowded house at
the Opera House when the election re-
turns were not being announced.
On Market street the crowd was most
dense, rendering the sidewalks almost
impossible. The Postal Union tele-
graph company flashed the returns on
conyass on the front OF the Mcclure
house by a stereopticon, with intermis-
sions OF advertisements OF prominent
merchants and comical pictures. The
Wheeling Insta,lment company fur-
nished the same service on the Twelfth
street side OF the Mcclure house.
The interest i'll bulletins was intense
on both sides, and although the re-
turns from New York were not OF an
encouraging character to the Repub-
licans, they lost none OF their confidence
IN the ultimate election OF Harrison.
The greatest enthusiasm was mani
tested over the returns from thissstate,
indicating that West Virginia was
surely Republican. The greatest good
humor prevailed throughout the night
and the early morning hours.
When the returns began to favor
Cleveland, or to seem to favor him, the
scene Of enthusiasm among the Demo-
Gratis about the Register Office was some
thing seldom equaled. Red fire was
burned in profusion, people wore their
throats out yelling for "Groyer," and
long before it was known that Franz
helm was elected q big crowd took 1t
for granted, and with big photograph
OF the candidate mounted on a pole
they marched about the central part OF
town yelling "Hurrah for FranzheimW
and "Hurrah for Groverp
The .dItty "Grover, Grover, four years
more OF Grover" ETC., was sung, or
yelled, everywhere. The Democrats
were so exuberant in their enthusiasm
that the Republicans gave it up as "a
gone COON" and went home early, feel
ing worse than they have felt for eight
years.
The boys kept it up for hours, and in
the early morning cries for Grover"
still rent the air, and scores OF people
were still trapping the streets, while at
both morning newspaper offices there
were gatherings OF men unwilling to 90
home until the result was definitely
known.
1t was without exception the widest
night ever seen in the history of Wheel
ing. Probably wilder one will be
witnessed in the pretty soon, however.
