THEY ALL TALK ALIKE.
Democrats Visiting National
Headquarters Confident Of
Success in November.

New York, October Among the
callers at democratic national head.
quarters to-day was Mayor Frank p.
Freeland of Omaha. He came to tell
the campaign committee about the
situation in Nebraska. 1.-The third
party" he said, ''have made their
nominations, and the impression in
Nebraska seems to he that the demo-
Gratis will support the alliance electoral
ticket, thus insuring the loss Of that
state to Harrison. Of course there
are probably some democrats in Ne
braska who will refuse to vote that
way, but even if 80 per cent of the
democrats in Nebraska to the alliance
electoral ticket, will insure the carry
ing of Nebraska by Mr.. Weaver. Col
orado and Wyoming, both heretofore
republican, are extremely doubtful,
and there is strong probability that
Mr.. Weaver will also carry both of
those states. In any event, the out
look in the west is not very fiattering
for Mr.. Harrison's success.
Il think Mr.. Clevelands letter of
acceptance is one of the most remark
able that has ever emanated from any
man in the country. Laying aside
all party feeling and comparing the
letter with Mr.. Harrison's, it is a let
ter which will give great satisfaction
to the masses Of the people, being very
candid, veryhonest, as well as staight-
forward in principle and sentiment.
1t demonstrates the fact to my mind
that Mr.. Cleveland has the power to
express himself in such a way and
manner as to make his statements en-
tirely comprehensive and easily under
stood. No Democrat in the United
States can ignore the fact that most
Of the sentiments therein meet the APP
proval and appreciation OF the party.
1t is wonderful document"
Information relative to Indiana was
brought brought by ex-Congressman
William E. English of indianapolis, a
son of W. H. English, who was Dem
ocratic candidate for vice president in
in 1880. Mr.. English said: ''The
democracy is in an excellent condition
united, aggressive, and in fact there
are no disturbing conditions there at
all. The party will present a united
front, and Governor Gray, Senator
voorhees,, and other democratic lead
ers are taking an active part in the
canvass. Governor Gray has made
several speeches and will continue to
take an active part in the campaign.
The general feeling is very good. The
rank and file of our party always de-
sired the nomination of Mr.. Cleveland
As did the rank and file everywhere,
and therefore his nomination was very
satisfactory. In fact there is nothing
in the political situation in Indiana
that is not encouraging to the demo-
crazy. think the letter of President
Cleveland will have an excellent eff.
feet. 1t is received with general ap-
proval by the Indiana democracy"
Congressman John j. Hemphill of
South Carolina brought statements of
interest from that state. He said:
81 am convinced that there will be no
trouble in carrying South Carolina
for the democratic national ticket.
Up to this time no third party has
shown itself, and the republicans are
only going through the usual perfor-
nance of making nominations and
contesting the fight so as to get a
little campaign fund and be ready to
grab the federal offices in case Mr..
Harrison il elected.
''The prospect Of Democratic sue
cess in Alabama are much better than
they appear to be on the surface. The
leading Republicans do not want their
party tn have its numbers increased
unless the Federal Offices could be in
creased at the same time, as that is.
