Prospects of n Good Republican Vote
Among the French Canadians.
The Democrats have made plans for a
big rally in this city next Monday Ieven-
ing. 1t will be held in Harris Hail.
Messrs. Wardwell, German, Congressman
O'Neil Of Massachusetts, are expected to
address the meeting
1t is now definitely settled that Gov.
Mckinley, Senator Frye and Congressman
Reed will deliver addresses in this city.
The dates of their visits have not as yet
been definitely settled upon, but there
will be rallies every evening for the four
nights prior to April o.
Woonsocket said in an interview yester-
day, II think we shall elect the Republi-
can assembly ticket from this city by a
good majority. There are about $50 French
voters in this city of whom about 800 will
cast their first ballot April 9th. am
quite sure that the three-quarters of these
new voters are Republicans. and these.
with the defections and splits in the Dem
ocratic ranks, will wipe out Senator
last spring, and give us the vic
tory. In the issue of the new
Democratic French paper, LIE Foyer
Cdnddjcn, under date of March 10, there
appeared an article commenting upon the
French vote polled by Aram j. Pothier in
the third election for mayor. The writer
of that article. who is Democrat, con-
ceded that 400 French votes were polled
by him representing the total Republican
French vote. This, with the $50 new voters
gives us a total French vote of more than
$50. which vote will wipe out any esti-
mated Democratic majorities i'll my opin-
ion."

ADELAIDE, South Australia, March o.
The man Deeming or Williams, who is
charged with the Nugden murder left
Perth to-day for Melbourne, via Albany,
in charge of Detective I.amsey, who still
inclines to the belief that Deeming is no
other than Jack, the Ripper" and points
out that while Deeming was in Hull Jail
the Whitechapel murders ceased. 1t is be-
lieved that Deeming is the man who, in
1887, stabbed several women in the
suburbs of Sidney under most outrageous
circumstances.
MELBOURNE, Australia, March o.
Considerable excitement was caused here
to-day by the declaration of the Aryus
that Deeming, the murderer, had con-
fessed to a number of the London MUIR
ders attributed to "Jack the Ripper"
There has been strong suspicion here
all along that Deeming and the Ripper were
one and the same person, and his confess
sion has been looked for,
The Argus is reliable paper aud there
is no reason to doubt its statement that
Deeming has confessed his guilt Of the
murder Of his wife and four children at
Rainhill near Liverpool. and that ho MUIR
dereu the laSt TWO women WHOSE DOOleS
were found in the street in the White
chapel district.
While he does not admit that he killed
the other Whitechapel victims, neither
does he deny his guilt. 1t is thought that
when he sees all hope of escaping from the
clutches of the law cut off, that he will
confess his guilt of all the Whitechapel
murders, and others the police never
heard of.
The Argus states that he made the con-
fession to an official at Perth, in West
Australia, while he was confined there,
pending the success Of the effort TO return
him TO Windsor, where he was wanted for
murder 1t was the Windsor murder on
which he was first arrested by the police,
who charged him with killing his wife.
lie says he is not guilty of this crime, and
that his wife, who is missing, ran off with
another man. 1t has been settled beyond
all doubt that the woman killed at Rain
hill was not Deeming's first wife. Some
years ago a woman mysteriously disap-
peared from her home in Sydney.
IL was suspected then that she had been
murdered, but the authorities could not
find any evidence to substantiate the
charge brought against her husband who
at that time went under the name of Will
liams. The officials of Sidney are now
convinced that Williams was none other
than Deeming.

THE condition Of the city finances
after year Of Republican majority Is a
severe lesson TO those Independents,
mucwumps and honest but inexperienced
Democrats who thought the road TO re-
form was through Republican Office
seekers without regard to character, Mt
ness. ability or general intelligence. Tne
facts concerning the financial condition
Of the city are not fully developed,
bnt the EVENING JOURNAL has pub
lished enough to show that there
will be large de6ci. from appro'
priations, greater than Fwere ever
made before while there is less to show
for IL. The principle Of the Republican
party is to spend all the money there is
and impose taxes on the people for more.
This principle Is applied from the BIZ
lion-Dollar Congress down to every City
Council 10 the country. By a strange
and suspicious prescieHce the news
papers undertook TO anticipate and give
the reasons for deficit several
months ago with the purpose Of plac
inc the burden on the Democratic
Council. That effort was not success
It lacked two very essential qualities
sense and truth. ANY explanations thai
the newspapers may have are in order
now, however, for we intend to ask al
those citizens who assisted In putting
these recreant officers in power TO assist
In putting them out.

In January, 1890. Mr. Bntterworth Of
Ohio introduced bill into the House OF
Representatives taxing dealers In "op'

The result is that we COM
