DEMOCRATIC TIMES.
Silent Mills and Idle Workers Tell How
Good They Are.

Boston, November s.-The American
Wool and Cotton Reporter, in its issue OF
Thursday, will publish statistics show
ing the difference in the production OF
mems wear, worsted and woolen goods in
the United States in the period covered
by June 1, and November 1, 1892, and
the same time in 1888, the object being
to determine as accurately as possible the
curtailment in production. The Reporter
finds that of 102 mills from which reports
were received, twelve were running on
full time, forty-seven running on partial
time and forty three shut down. The
total number of looms in operation was
1855; looms idle, 5641; number of hands
employed, 9,605, against %, 443 employed
November /, 1852. The 102 mills pro-
duced between June l and November 1,
1893, 10,173, ,715 yards of mems wear,
worsted and woolens, against 17,085, ,069
yards in the same period in 1892. These
latter figures carry with them much Sig
nificance, revealing as they do a shortage
of Z, gil 1854 yards of goods. Returns from
seventy-six mills in the New England
States, included in the preceding total,
show total yardage of mems wear
goods produced between June and
November 1, 1888, of 6,455,816 against
1J,269, 762 yards in the same period in
1892. Seven mills of the seveDty-six were
running full time; forty-seven running on
part time and thirty-eight shut down

SAT UP FOR THEM.
Two Oakland Men Exchanged Leader
Compliments With Burglars.

Oakland, Novem Der S.-The gang of
robbers that have caused SO much excite
ment at different places on the Somerset
railroad, saw fit to visit Oakland last
night, but without success. William H..
Mccartney and Constable Robinson were
expecting them and SO concealed them
selves in the post office. The burglars
called at the Office window but did not
attempt to enter. If they had they never
would have blown up any more safes.
They then went to the Maine Central
depot. Stationing sentinel on the plat
form, they drilled four holes in the safe
and attempted to blow it open, but with
out success Mccartney and Robinson
then made their appearance but were
seen before they had chance to advance
far. Four or five shots were exchanged
but without any known results. The men
disappeared vdown the track Mccartney
sent good charge of shot from his shot
gun flying after them. This Is the second
time burglars have visited Oakland and
found some one waiting for them. They
find this bad town for their kind Of
business.

Mr.. MANLEY ON THE RESULT.
Tho Gettysburg and Appomattox of the
Republicans Coming in '84 and '96.

Augusta, November S.-J.eH. Manley,
ESQ, secretary of the Republican Ma
tional Committee, says of the elections:
1.-THE result of the elections through
out the country yesterday is fraught
with more than ordinary significance.
When we remember that it was only one
year ago that the people of this country
decided to again try the Democratic par
ty, forgetting, as too many did, their
past record, and when we remember
that it is only eight months since they
assumed absolute control of the govern
ment, it is more than the good Demo-
cratic times, that has caused this revolu-
tion in public sentiment.
'The underly cause is the absolute in
capacity of the Democratic party to
administer this government in an en-
lightened and progressive spirit. People
have awakened to the fact that it is the
old Democratic party of ante-bellum
days that is in the saddle and they had
only to realize, by an object lesson. the
spirit and purposes Of the Democrat par
ty to arise in their might and overthrow
them. The coalition between the
Democratic party of the South and TAM
many Hall of the North, which had the
effrontery to attempt to debauch the
court by placing a criminal upon the
bench, has been broken and over
thrown.
''The verdict is an earnest protest
against any interference with the sys-
tenn of protection under which our in
dustrial and agricultural interests have
been fostered, and to which we owe our
enormous development and growth
which have brought peace, plenty and
prosperity to this land.
TT is the death blow of 'bossism' in
this country. 1t is an emphatic condem-
nation of corruption under any form or
guise.
''The Republican party has only to
prove true to its past sink all per-
sonal differences, and unite on one man
for the common good, and it will ad-
minister to the Democratic party in 1894
political Gettysburg and we shall see
in. 1896 our political Appomattox.
IF we but heed the lessons which it
teaches, the eloquent words of Hon.
Thomas B. Reed, in the House of Repre-
sentatives in August last, will become
prophetic: And when the time comes,
as it surely will come in 1896 for US to
lead this land back to those paths of
prosperity and fame which were trodden
under Republican rule for so many years,
we shall take back with us our ancient
glory undimmed by adversity, our an
cient honor unsullied by defeat -

FIFTEEN MORE DEATHS.

Eighty Persons Are Seriously Ill from
Wounds and Shock.
Madrid, November S.-Dispatches from
Barcelona say the men who threw the
bombs in the Opera house last night are
supposed to have sat in the fourth OF
fifth gallery. Fifteen persons were killed
instantly by the explosion and fifteen Of
the injured died today.
Eighty persons are seriously ill from
wounds or shocks. Soldini, an italian
Anarchist, who was arrested made con-
fession tonight, but it is discredited,
owing to his many contradictory state
ments. At 8 o'clock this evening nine
Anarchists had been arrested in BARGE
Iona on suspicion of completely in the
crime. The government has decided to
expel all the foreign Anarchists from
Spain and pass drastic bills as soon
as possible against Spanish Anarchists.

Sad Feature of the Report of the Second
Assistant Postmaster General
Washington, November S.-The annual
report of j. Lowrie Bell, second assist
ant postmaster general, shows total
expenditure for mail transportation of
$43,597 1897, of this S5, ,75s. .s1s was on ac-
count of the star routes, and $25, 716, sos
on account of railroad routes. During
the last fiscal year the railway post office
cars were subjected to 4O3 train acci-
dents, and most all resulted in loss of
life or serious injury. Ten clerks were
killed, 66 seriously injured, and IFS
hope that Congress will adopt some plan
of extending relief to the dependent
families of those who lose their lives in
the service. Mr.. Bell recommends the
enlargement of the railway mail service,
and asks that it be brought to the atten-
tion of Congress.

HUGE GAINS FOR GREENHALGE.
His Plurality Proves To Be Over Thirty
five Thousand.

Boston, Mass, November s.-The
Journal this evening summarizes the re-
suit of the election in this state as fol-
lows:
The largest gains are to be found in the
manufacturing towns and mill centres.
in places like Lawrence, Fall River.
Ipswich, Easthampton. In Worcester
there is a phenomenal Republican gain
of 1900. Last year Mr.. Haile's plurality
was something over 500 This year the
heart of the Commonwealth gives Mr..
Greenhalge about $500 over Mr.. JOHN f.
Russell.
The farmers failed to show their regard
for their townsman and agricultural as
sociate, for singularly enough Mr.. Russell
fell 80 votes behind the governors vote
of last year, in his own town of Leices-
ter.
L Boston's plurality of IA, 5SS for Gov.
Russell was reduced by the good work of
the city committee and the removal of
the scales from the eyes of the idle
workmen in hersstreets to 9765. 1t was
then that the Democrats conceded MT.
Greenhalge's victory.
The returns from Lowell give Green
halee 574 plurality. ". E. Russell carried
the city by 500.
Nh. .Greenhalge's plurality is s5, 691. He
gained S633 votes over Mr.. Halle, while
Mr. !. e. Russell fell 25, 592 below Gov.
Russell The size of the vote as compared
with 1891, 1890 and 1889 is interesting. It
was nothing short of phenomenal for an
"off year."

Catholics or affiliated with them. This
worked against those whom it had
marked in Protestant localities, and in
wards were the Catholic population pre-
