missioner Rhodes.

j. S. Campbell, of ElIiston, Before Com
missioner Rhodes.
j. s. Campbell, the registrar at Ellis
ton, was arrested yesterday morning by
Deputy Marshal John Mills and brought
to this city before Commissioner Rhodes.
The warrant upon which he was ar
rested was issued upon an affidavit made
by Henry Goo dwin, the newly appointed
supervisor at Elliston. On the last day
of registration Goodwin demanded the
poll books at 10 o'clock in the morning
for tho purpose of making an exact COPY
of them to send to William B. Tinsley,
of Lynchburg, who is chief supervisor
of Southwest Virginia.
Mr.. Campbell refused to give the
books up for the reason the law required
him to keep them open from sunrise to
sunset on that day, but told Mr. Good
win the books were open for inspection
by anybody who wanted to examine
them. Goodwin at once notified the
chief supervisor and upon thess grounds
the warrant was issued.
Ex.Judge Geo. G. Junkin, OF Chris.
tiansburg, represented the prisoner,
and moved to quash the indictm on
the grounds that no charges were speci-
lied in the warrent. The motion was
refused. letter was read from T. A..
Wills, OF Shawsville, asking tina unless
all the witnesses could be found to have
the case postponed until the Goth. Judge
Junkin insisted on a trial at once and
asked that Mr.. Goodwin be sworn and
let him testify whether or not the abb
sent witnesses were material or not in
the case. This was also refused and the
case postponed until the Goth. Mr..
Campbell was released on bail in the
sum OF $1,000, with Judge Junkin and
John Northcross as security.

"GRArUITous AND MALICIOUS LIES ;.
Cleveland Hits the Republican PARTY
Another Rap.


AsBURY PARK, N. j.. Nov. 7.-lSpe-
cial l--Members OF tho c. X Hall Post
g. A. R., at this place, were somewhat
dissatisfied with Grover Cleveland for
his apparent slight on the veterans at
the big parade in New York CITY re.
Gently, and w. II. Carman, one of the

and received the following reply:

STRUNG my abandonment OF the review

To the above may be added that when
Cleveland left the reviewing stand it
was in compliance with tho repeated
urging from tho trustees of the Pea

frankly that for two weeks past there

as to Cleveland's success Beyond oues-

BISMARCK, N. D., Nov -lSpecialI-
After careful canvass on the part Of
the Republican committee, Chairman
Spalding is willing to,go on record with
the prediction Of the election of the Re-
publican electors by 1900, Congressman
by 1,5o0 and governor and entire State
ticket by 1000, with the possible
exception of one railroad com m issioner.
On the other hand, Chairman Maratta,
OF the Democratic committee, claims
the State for the fusionists by 1000 to
5000. The Legislature will be very
close and is claimed b. both sides. The
Republicans have been confident of a
majority OF fifteen all along until Satur-
day, whom they weakened on discourag-
ing reports. Conservative politicians
place North Dakota in doubt, with the
chances favoring the Weayerites.

Special telegram to THE TINES from the Ma
tionai Democratic Headquarters.
NEW York, Nov. THE Democratic
victory confidently anticipated last
week is certain now. The Republicans
have made their last desperate effort
and told their last Campaign lie.''
Their resources of Justification have
been exhausted and their promised
grand closing sensation has failed to
appear. Connecticut, Indiana, New
York and New Jersey are absolutely
safe. From Alabama State Chairman
Shelly telegraphe6:
Give yourself no concern whatever
about Alabama. We have won. The
majority will be considerable beyond all
doubt"
South Dakota advices, show that Har-
rison will lose that State as we'll as
North Dakota. In Colorado the Repub-
licans confess defeat by resorting to the
tactics of despair. The New York cleo
tioD will be peaceable and unsensational
and full Democratic vote will be cast
without impediment. This is assured
by the firm confidence and N oderate
course OF the State and local authori-
ties who meet Republican buster and
intimidation with calm reason and law
Davenport and his colleagues really
realize that their programme has fallen
through and that the effect Of their in
timidation will be to increase tho Glove
land vote. The criminal alliance be-
tween the Republican headquarters ard
Dishler, the notorious fugitive from jus.
tice for whose apprehension and arrest
a reward of $4,000 is outstanding, is q
sensation upon which the Repu blcans
did not count. 1t shows that notorious
rascals are hired to attempt to colonize
Republican headquarters. This indicted
scoundrel, who secured the escape of
O'Brien, the notorious bunco steerer, is
proven by his own handwriting to be
close pol itical friend and tool Of the Re-
publican executive chairman, Hackett.
The convict tao tics of the Republican
headquarters will lose Harrison thous.
ands Of votes OF reputable Republicans,
who rise up against the force bill and
Davenport's methods.
The New York Herald editorially
sums up an Arrangement of Republican
protection by saying: sit is boon to
millionaire manufacturers and rich en-
ployors, because it shuts out what com
petes with them-namcly, foreign prod
ucts. 1t is not boon to the employees,
because 1t does not exclude what com
petes with them namely, the foreign
laborer."
That is what English cheap labor
means. 1t is what Republican success
means.
The Democratic national CON mittee
now counts with perfect confidence upon
at least 244 electoral votes for Cleve-
land, while Harrison's electoral vote
will not exceed 165. The above calcu-
lation does not include the electoral
votes for Cleveland and Stevenson for
which the national headquarters con.
fidently look to the Northwest and Pa.
cific Coast. Don M. Dickinson, chair
man Of Democratic national campaign
committee, says we have fought good
fight, we have kept the faith and we

Alabama is Democratic.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Nov. 81 Specially
Tho situation is brighter for the DEM
ocrats than at any previous time. Evil
dence of tide among the Kolb Demo-
Gratis toward Cleveland is very positive
and pronounced. Still the fusionists are
hopeful, and their chairman, P. G.
Bowman, predicts victory by 10, COO
majority and the election of four Con-
gressmen.
Chairman Shelly puts the Democratic
plurality $4,000; is certain Of eight
Congressman and hopeful Of nine. There
is really no telling, however. how many
Kolb Democrats have abandoned the
fusion ticket. The Democrats will win
by anywhere from $4,000 to $4,000. They
may lose Congressman in three dis
tricts.
