IT'S IN THE AIR.

A RattIing Democratic Letter From Penn
syIvauia, Containing Good News From
the East.
Mr.. 1. T. Jones, President Of the
Norway Tack Company of Norristown,
Pa, has written a letter to friend in
this city, from which the REGISTER Is
permitted to make the following ex-
tracts:

openly confess they do not expect TO
succeed this election, except through
the corrupt use of Doodle. l really
think, as things look to-day, they
would give up II they did not think the
election could be bought. But l have
always found that when the plain,
honest people OF this country once get
woke up, they can't be bought or sold
out, so l am feeling safe and secure this
time, trusting the people-and We won't
trust them in vain, either.

FULTON AWAKE.
A ROUSING DEMONSTRATION HELD IN THAT
TOWN LAST NIGHT.
A Large Gathering Addressed BY Hon. ]. B. Som
msryille and Col. Whits-A Fine Parade
and Plenty OfFireWOrks-A List Of
the llumiDahons-Oh
Politics.

Fulton was thoroughly awake last
night to the issues of the hour, as this
town has been throughout the CAM
uaign. Last night, however, there was
an exuberance of feeling, and Democra'
cy held full sway. 1t was one OF those
old fashioned, wide-awake Democratic
meetings such as Fulton has known in
other days.
The citizens of the town we're out
early in the evening bedecking their
stores and residences and otherwise
making arrangements for the reception
Of the speakers and visiting cluos Full
ton presented q gay and attractive ap-
pearance, and many fine illumlnations
were observed.
Among the particularly noticeable
displays were those made by Mlcheal
Stein. Christ. Hoffman, the Hoffman
sisters, John Koch, Joe Herden, Her
man Geherlng, Mrs. John Rolf, Albert
Beltz, viii Coss, Mrs. Elizabeth Mar
shall, Andy Kirk, Jacob KOntz, Isaac
Bogard, Chas. Hoffman, Joe Burt
Joseph Williams, August Schuitzner,
VIM. Baker, Lawrence Heller, Earnest
Stein, Howard Winters, VIM. Bates,
John Rorn, Chas. Hill, and Chas. Mil
Ter.
The parade was an excellent one
throughout. The first In line were the
VIM. L. Wilson Tariff Students, with
drum corps, then followed the Fourth
ward Democratic Club with so men,
captaned by Andy Michael. They also
had drum corps, and they In turn
were followed by the North Wheeling
Faulkner Club with SO men, Capt. John
Batchley; the Elm Grove Democratic
Club, Is men, Captain Michael Mad
den: the Kenna Club, 25 men;
the Fulton Democratic Club, As men,
John Korn, Captain. In the speakers
carriage rode the two speakers OF the
evening, Col. Robert White and Hon. j..
B. Sommerville. also w. c. Handlan
and Michael Stein. AS the long pro-
cession marched over the hill ana Into
Fulton all the inhabitants seemed TO
vie with one another in Turing colored
fires, and shooting off roman candles
and sky-rockets. The clubs marched
under a perfect shower OF pyrotechnlcs'
and a beautiful scene was witnessed.
The speaking took place from q stand
erected out OF doors near the centre OF
the town, and around this gathered
hundreds OF enthusiastic voters.
Mr.. Stein opened the meeting and
called upon Mr.. Handlan TO preside,
who, after few preliminary remarks,
introduced Col. White, who made Wig
orous and telling speech, which was
loudly applauded. The Colonel related
some of the experiences encountered in
his recent New York trip, and so reas-
suring did they make the audience that
they gave vent to their feelings In
terms that were Gnmistakable. The
Colonel also dwelt at some length upon
the tariff, and carried the unvarnished
facts to the hearts Of the people.
Col. White was followed by Mr.
Sommeryille. who held the closest at
tention OF the people for some time.
Even before he began TO speak he was
accorded three hearty cheers by the en-
tire crowd, and this enthusiasm was
made manifest at intervals through his
speech. 1t was highly successful
meeting.

Caused by Explosion of Lamp.

CAMDEN, Me-, Dec. 2s.- Fire last night
nearly destroyed the two-story frame
building OF ]. Fl. Montgomery. The fire
was caused by the explosion of lamp in
the hands OF his brother, c. o. Montgom-
cry, who was somewhat burned. The
Montgomery brothers moved into their
law office few days ago. They had taken
a policy of one thousand dollars on the
building, and one thousand dollars on
their law library, in the National Insur-
ance Company of Hartford, but found
fault with the rate and the policy was
cancelled at noon. The library is total
loss. The rear of the law Office was occu-
pied by DR.: Pearson, but he had moved
but few things in.

THE PROPHECY FULFILLED.
Senator Frye and the Panama and Mica
ragua Canals.

SahaAbs
WASHINGTON. Dec. 2s.-Two wears ago.
In a speech at Portland, Me-, Senator Frye
said that time would show that the whole
Panama Canal scheme was corrupt and
that within . year or two, at least, the
light would be thrown upon 1t, and the
French republic would tremble under the
bhock. That prophecy has been fulfilled.
There has been some talk to the effect
that the Panama and Nicaragua canal
schemes are parallel and that the disaster
that has overtaken the French people will
cause public men in this country to hesi-
tate In giving their votes to sanction the
guarantee of the Nicaragua bonds, fear
ing that great scandal might result.
Mr.. Frye can see nothing of tho kind
and Is emphatic In his declarations to
that effect. "The two cases. said he.
''are entirely dissimilar. There has never
been in this country any corporation
ciamoring to put its stock on the market;
newspapers have not been bought TO
boom the enterprise, and the whole land
has not been honeycombed with the
agents OF the Nicaragua company seeking
to sell the stock of the concern. The act
OF Congress was not of the corporations
seeking, but Congress, on the contrary,
believing that IL should know the condi-
Wv. Va "h"hs, Soihpciicu INC company TO
make report and show what it was do
ing.
"For myself, believe that the govern
ment should have the matter under its
charge, and for that purpose intr 'uced
bill authorizing the appropriation of
100000 for the construction of the
Nicaragua canal, the money to be paid
out from time to time under the direction
OF the secretary of war. How any one
can conceive that there should DO any
scandal here, l cannot possibly see."

Z LITERARY RING ALLEGED.

Valuable Historical Works Owned by the
Government Seen Only by Favored Few.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 2s.-The Washing
ton Post charges that there is literary
ring in the state department which holds
control OF all the valuable historical docu-
ments purchased by the United States at
public expense and refuses access to then
except to a small coterie of New England
historical writers. 1t mentions specifi,
instances where prominent western wri-
ter has made numerous efforts to Obtain
copies of some OF these documents, bui
has always been repulsed, though armet
with orders from the leading state de-
partment officials. The Post names
prominent Massachusetts congressman IN
connection with this alleged Boston ring
and calls for an investigation by Con-
gress.

SALEM, Mass, Dec. 2S.-There was bad
irc lnst evening, by which the entire
frame block, corner Of Mill and Canal
streets, owned by Devlin Brothers, was
totally destroyed. The building was $50
feet long, three stories high, and was oc-
cupied on the first floor by Devlin Broth
ers as paste shop, and by the Naumkeag

An explosion of cement In Lefavour's

rested against the wires and was saved
from falling into the street.
The losses will be: On building, $1,000;

DOES NOT WANT MURPHY
Cleveland Opposes His Election as a
New York Senator.
PARTY DEMANDS ANOTHER.
His Election Would be q Great Disap-
pointment to Leaders, the Interests of
the State. and Would Cause Dissension
In the Ranks.

NEW YORK, Dec. 2S.-The Times today
publishes q statement by ex-President
Cleveland declaring his opposition to the
election of Edward Murphy of Troy, to
United States Senate to succeed Mr.. His
cock.
Mr.. Cleveland says: at ought not to be
necessary for me to repeat for the public
what / have so often expressed to many
gentlemen in private conversation.
Among these have been Mr.. Murphy HIM
self, Mr.. Croker and gentlemen who have
been prominent in the party, from every
part of the state of New York.
at must not be forgotten, however, that
the party has very hard task to perform
II we expect to keep the word we have
passed to the people OF the country. They
have given US a phenomenal majority, ono
showing that they expect us to do much.
In doing this great deal depends upon
the state Of New York and its great me-
tropolis.- The interests of the state and
IL the party demand, 1t seems to me, the
selection OF senator who cannot only
defend
the Principles of Our Party,
but who can originate and promote poll
cies that may be presented for considera-
tion in the Senate. In order to insure
this, the senator from New York should
be a man not only experienced in public
Affairs, but who has a clear conception of
the vital issues with which he must deal
during the next few years.
speaking frankly, as i have already
done to those entitled to know my views,
Z does not seem to me that the selection
Sf Mr.. Murphy shows desire or inten-
zion OF placing in the Senate man of
such type.
"This first use OF our power would, /
jear, cause much disappointment, not
This the party ought not TO be called up
on to face when 1t Is considered how
much there Is TO do, and what serious
difficulties have TO be surmounted before

The Immigration Problem.

The enormous influx Of immigrants to
our shores and some OF the evils which
attend an unrestricted immigration have
brought the problem prominently before
the country, and there is no doubt that a
majority OF II. people are in favor OF re-
striction in s,s.e degree. Mr.. Walter II.
Griffin, commercial agent of the United
State, has been for three years investi-
eating the condition of the laboring
classes of Europe, and his report was laid
before Congress few days ago. In
Switzerland he found the workmen thor
oughly organized and strikes exceedingly
rare. The societies there are beneficial
and not criminal, and compulsory men,
bership is forced upon all workmen.
He found the lower part of Italy honey
combed with societies, all communistic
and almost criminal in their intent and
purpose. All OF the young men of the
country belong TO some one of these So
cieties. Last year alone 100000 of these
men left Italy, great part of them com
ing to the United States.
