And All indications Permit the lndul-
gence Of Bright
HOPES OF A GREAT VICTORY.
But it IL still Necessary to Keep the Ar
NOR Buckied on and the Weapons Ac-
tive In the Onslaught Upon the Falla-
cies and Lies by Which the Democrats
Continue to Hustle.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.-There is good
<eal of quiet talk here about the alleged
purpose Of some of the third party peo-
pie to defeat Cleveland, even II they had
90 elect Harrison. The plan Is said to be
for the Peoples party to choose as many
electors as possible by combinations with
Democrats In the North and Republicans
In the South, and then deliver them to
Harrison. II Kansas, Nebraska. Minne-
Aota, Colorado, Nevada, Tennessee and
Alabama should choose Weaver electors,
they would hold the balance OF powsr In
the electoral college. 1t would be fore
gone conclusion, IL they voted for Weav-
or, that the election would 60 to Con-
gress and that Cleveland would be chosen
president by the House and Whitelaw
Reid vice. president by the Senate.
The election in this way OF two New
York candidates would be the least de-
sirable result possible In the eyes OF the
third party men. They would be able,
holding the balance Of power in the
electoral college, to dictate terms to
either party. They could not hope that
either the Cleveland or the Harrison
electors would come to Gen. Weaver, but
they might hope, II they gave their votes
would choose the third party candidate
for vice. e-president, General Field Of Vir-
ginis.
Assurances are said to have been given
by some of the Peoples party leaders that
their votes will be given II needed to de-
feat Cleveland and put Mr.. Harrison
again In the White House. 1t is argued
tina. even where such assurances have
not been given, old-time Republicans
In such states as Kansas and Nebraska
who are now acting with the Peoples
party would choose Harrison against
Cleveland when they voted in Decem Der.
The matter is grave enough, however,
TO cause some serious discussions here,
and is throwing decided damper over
tho feelings OF those Democrats, who
have been urging the support OF the Peo-
pies party ticket in the western states.
They begin to feel that support OF that
ticket may deliver them naked and de-
fenceless into the hands OF the enemies
Of the Democratic party.

CUTLERY BUSINESS BENEFITEp.
A Connecticut Democrat ID isobeys Party
Instructions.


was talking with Democrat this
morning about the outlook for the cleo
ton. He was Connecticut Democrat
one Of that kind that wears &. and S.
button in his coat, and rs sincere and un-
compromising as possible. After arguing
that Connecticut was sure to go Demo
cratic, because, he said, u few manufac-
turers who had always voted the Repub-
licau ticket were reported as intending to
vote for Cleveland, he said: There is
one thing will admit; the Mckinley bill
has benefited the cutlery interests In Con-
necticut Wages have been increased p
per cent. since 1890. and business was
never so good. l know this because /
nave been in the cutlery business my
self"
was astonshed. The idea OF Demo-
crat admitting that the Mckinley bill
had increased the wages of any working
man. 1t was against their instructions
from headquarters. / told my new ac-
quaintance that he was the first Demo
crat i ever heard admit anything like
that, and added that the same thing is
likely TO be true OF other protected in
dustries. Then he said he did not believe
IL, that he had not heard OF any such
raise in other industries. This was no
more than natural, that n Democrat
should not believe what he had not seen,
but that he should admit what he knew
TO be true and damaging 10 his party and
violate instructions was the most pecu-
liar fact.

The elements during the last day or
two seem TO have decided that there has
been enough red fire and hollerin' in
Rhode Island, or else the noise and smoke
have brought the rain clouds as the noise
and smoke of battles do Anyway, the
rain stopped the biggest parade in
the State for years from taking place yes
terday and caused some 1000 sandwiches
to be distributed to the poor. A good
thing for the poor but little disappoint-
ing to the Republican clubs which had
arranged for big time. Anyway, the af
fair will take place Saturday night in
connection with the speaking at Music
and Infantry halls, and all the plans go
over intact to that date.
The rain seems determined to be impair
tial and spoil the Democratic parade to-
night also, although Democrats are so
tough that water, even Pawtuxet, never
affects them. They pay no attention TO
it, Anyway, if the parade takes place IT
will not. of course. compare with the
postponed Republican demonstration.
But the speaking Saturday night is what
the people are waiting for.
The Democrats are not hollerin' to any
great extent about the state. An pu-
dent periodical has been trying to claim
that Page would have 500 majority but
intelligent Democrats say that there is
not only no foundation for any such
statement but that IL has positively in
jured Mr.. Pages chances, small as they
claimed them to be.
A we'll posted Democrat said last night
that he admitted that there was almost
no chance for the Democrats to elect
either their electors or their congressman
and he did not think they would get any
mayors this year. The character of the
would be leaders was the principal rea-
son ascribed for this; also the fact the
RHODE ISLAND Democrats know when
they are financially well off.
Some local Democrats are basing all
their hopes on New York, but they admit
that Democratic success there is doubt
full. Some Of them think. very singu-
larly, that Cleveland will carry Indiana.
A well-known politician said to-day that
there was no reason why the Democrats
should ever show any greater strength
than they did last spring.
Mr. Capron and his friends are very
confident, and Mr. Balls election is al
most undisputed, bat there is no reason
why every voter should not be on hand
and work to the last minute to make
sure of the choice of two good men for
Congress. The attempts of an alleged
organ to injure Mr.. Capron have received
no attention, and are groundless, the
acts of that gentleman iii the General AS
sembly showing by the records To give the
lie to the attack. IL is the sign of n bad
case on the Democratic side of tSe fence.
An attempt has been been made locally,
TO Justify the Cleveland administration
in the matter of American citizens i'm
prisoned in England, but all Ir:sn-Ameri-
cans know that Cleveland in power didn't
do what Cleveland out of power tries to
make it appear that he was anxious to
do.
The Democrats must get along without

E1-Gov. Campbell speaks at Waterbury,
Conn. to q Large Audisnce.
WATERBURY, Conn, Nov. 3.-The big
gest Democratic rally OF the campaign
was held last evening in City Hall: The
speakers were Hon. Luzsn q. Morris,
candidate for governor; Hon. James p.
Plggott, candidate for Congress In the
Second District; ex- Congressman Vance,
State Senator Pierce, and ex-Gov. Camp
bell OF Ohio. The speaking referred
principally to state issues. Ex-Governor
Campbell was greeted with thunders OF
applause.
He said in part: 81 cannot help but
think, after hearing of the action of the
Republicans in robbing the Democrats
OF the state offices, that the people have
had a taste of the force bill ip Connect
cot. 1t has surprised me very much, and
10 disgraceful. Reviewing the tarih leg
islation enacted by the Repu blican party,
he said the Mckinley bill only benefited
protected manufacturers, and cited as an
instance the action OF carpet manufac-
turers In getting the duty increased sixty
per cent. and shortly after reducing
wages.
He gave many instances where Repub-
lioans had attempted and sometimes sue
cesded in deceiving the working people.
He said no laboring man coutd afford to
belong to the Repub blican party. 1t was
delusive party and helped nobody but
protected manufacturers. He mentioned
In illustration, the rising of the duty on
steel rails. 1t did not benefit the laborer
but put money In the pockets of Frick
and others.
When importing foreign labor was In
augurated Republican manufacturers
were the first to import them. He gave
fine, clear outline of the principles OF
Democracy, and urged all to vote the
Democratic national, state and local tick
cts in order that the principles OF the
party NAV be carried out and full justice
RoYern all.

CHARITY AND POLITICS.

benevolent Institutions and the Poor
are Happy To-day.
The poor are happy to-day and the pub
lie charities have cause to be thankful.
The cause of it all is politics.
Independents and Mugwumps who fol-
low the advice of the irrespon sible
mourning calamityites organ and take
to the woods" instead Of voting on cleo
tion day, will please take notice that
there is at least grain OF goodness In
what they call an unworthy occupation,
but which is properly known as patriotic
enthusiasm. Parades are projected. Man
proposes but the rain disposes, and there
in lies pleasant fact.
The rations prepared for last nights
parade by the Republicans are to-day
being given out by the orders of the Re
publican State central committee. The
1000 little bags containing sandwiches,
doughnuts, cheese and apples were stored
in barrels at 67 South Main street when
the order came from the committee yester-
day that the parade had been postponed,
aud that all rations were to be distributed
TO the poor, on order from Supt. Cum
mings, and to the various charitable in
stitutions.
And what an order il was. There was
ample opportunity to sell the food, and
the proceeds would have nearly reim-
bursed the State Central Committee for
its loss. But the committee is composed
OF humane men, and the needy are the
gamers All day long the stream OF poor
women and men has been besieging the
doors at 81 South Main street.
Each carried their little slip OF paper
containing the order from Supt. Cum
mings. Each departed with basket
full of good fresh food, enough TO supply
whole families for three good meals.
Here is partial list of the Fortunate
ones and the number Of the rations given
them,

THE ALTAR DRAMATIC CLUB.

"That Rascal Pat" aud "Chums" Produced
at Greenwich Street Hall.
The Affair Dramatic Club gave per-
formancs last evening. In Greenwich
Street Hall, to a large and appreciative
audience. The double bill, THAT Rascal
Patn and "Chums" was given aud in both
cases the great ana marked improvement
in the performers evoked universal COM
ment. The handsome stage setting was
a radical improvement aud tended TO In
tensify the interest throughout.
In the first sketch, "That Rascal, Pat"
Miss Maud Phillips as Laura was ex-
ceedinQly yivacious and versatile and in
the laughable situations falling to her,
She showed great tact +. A. Mooney, as
Pat, was also in good form and furnished
considerable amusement. The other
members Of the cast were good and made
the most Of their parts.
In "Chums," the second half OF the
program. the female impersonation by j.
G.. Davis was especially good. Mr.: II.
Howard Thomas as Mr.. Breed, Yer.
mont squire, was emineutly successful
In makeup, and showed familiarity with
the lines and situations allotted TO him.
Miss Clara L. Peckham, rs the sweet
Vassar girl, niece OF the squire, gave an
extremely dashing and lively interpreta-
tion of the character, while Miss Fannie
Davis as Mrs. Breed made the most or
her part. After the performance the
floors were cleared for dancing, Luther's
Orchestra furnishing the music. j. Z.
Davis was floor director, and II. III.
Thomas. r. n. Mooney. G.. III. Emerson
and Charles Nichols were the aids.
