wanamaker Among Old Friends.

COLUMBIA CITY. Ind. Nov. 5-Althouqh
the air was chilly and disagreeable, the
demonstration participated in by the Re.
publicans of this county was indeed sue
ress at the Wanamaker meeting today.
Postmaster-general Wanamsker, accom-
panied by w. u. Patterson. of IndIanapo-
lis. arrived In the city early this morning.
and was met ct the depot by the reception
committee. AS the carriage containing the
visitor passed through the city cheers
greeted him on every side. At 10 O'clock
Mr.. Wanamaker was escorted To the Lin
willie Opera house. where he made q short
address TO the multitude gathered there.
AS TO all explanation of the tariff question,
Mr.. Wanamaker said: The shortest expla-
nation 4 can give of the tariff Is this:
When man aud his family move into the
wilds of the West he at once
begins the construction of a strong
and well-fortitied habitation. This is
done TO protect himself and those he holds
dear from the ravages of wild beasts that
would destroy his home. This simple IL
lustration tends TO show why the tariff
placed on certain goods as specified in the
Mckinley law protec t. the American peopie
from the svarice of the foreign importers

i've tariff. have circulated numerous circu-
lars over the United states picturiDg TO
the people why they should not vote this
protection. the protection which makes
them citizens of the United States and
gives them money enough To set down To q
table laden with wholesome food instead
of meal on beer and piece OF cheese like
foreign workmen."

Complex in Alabama.

BIRMINGHAM. Ala. Nov. 5.-The political
situation in Alabama 10 very complex.
The State has been the very backbone or
the Alliance, but it has worked within the
Democratic party lines. Last August,
however, the Alliance broke away from IT'S
old sffiiiations and embarked on an indie
pendent course under the name OF the JEFF
fersonian Democratic party. This party
has now allied itself with the Republican
party in the State with no avowed object
or purpose except TO defeat Cleveland.
Undou btcdly the rancor and Ill feeling en-
gendered IN the last State election has had
much to DO with the present
fusion. The combination ticket is
known as the Populist ticket.
No labor or liqnor questions enter into this
campaigns; the State officers have already
been elected and Tuesdays election will
be strictly confined TO the choice of presi-
Dental electors and Representatives In
Congress. The point of interest to be dis
closed by the vote ls the extent of the dis
affection in the Democratic party caused
by the attitude of the Alliance. Notwith-
standing the fusion effected the Repub-
licans etill have full ticket of presi-
Dental electors and congressional candi-
dstes. and the Prohibition party. although
cutting little or no figure in the canvass,
hiss also made few nominations TO retain
the form of organization.

THE DEMOCRATIC OUTLOOK.

The outlook for the Democratic party
this fall is anything but encouraging
The spring elections do not show any
materials gains in any section. In New
York the elections on supervisors show
startling Republican gains. In Ohio the
Republicans looked for losses owing to
factional quarrels, but gains as unex-
pected to them as to the Democracy
we're the outcome.
The presence OF ex.President Glove
land in Rhode Island served to enthuse
the Democracy of that State UP to the
pitch of bringing out thoir last vote,
yet the Repr blicans did the same and
carried the State on the largest vote
ever polled.
These facts are grim ones to the ma
tional Democracy and cannot be thrust
aside. The possession of the House of
Representatives by an overwhelming
majority has not been an unmixed
blessing. 1t has served thus far only
to show the party split in the middle on
the silver question.
The present view Of the situation is
that the only chance for tho party to win
this fall is to nominate Presidential
candidate who can carry the doubtful
States; and to couple with him for the
Vice Presidency man who is also strong
in a doubtful State.
No New England State, save Connecti-
cut, can be looked to for an electoral
vote. Whatever chance there might
have been for Republican Western
State has probably been frittered away
by flirtations with the Farmers Alliance
and general uncertainty on important
issues.
Who the nominee will be is out of
calculation and still within the field of
prophesy. ExPresident Cleveland's
remarkable hold on the masses makes
him the popular favorite, but the WE'LL
grounded doubt of his ability to carry
New York makes his nomination uncer-
tain. Popularity does not always carry
elections. The Democratic party has a
million and half majority of the
white vote of the country, but it has
had the Presidency but once in thirty
years. Its overwhelming strength is
not placed where it will do tho most
good. The same objection has been
Hrged against Senator Hill. Though he
has carried New York three times there
is question If he could do it on the
national ticket.
Governor Flower could probably be
depended on to carry Now York.
Neither the Hill or the Cleveland ad-
herents have any quarrel with him. If
New York we're the only point of doubt
he would be the man to select. New
Jersey and Connecticut too, could be
.aafeiy counted. Then Indiana becomes
the issue.
81 If Indiana is to bs carried, either
Gray or Voorhees, would have to be
named. OF the two. Voorhees, is the
mere popular, and would withstand best
the tremendous Republican strength
which would rally to President Harri-
sison IL renominaied
Flower and Voorhees, would be
