Correspondence Of The Evening Star
TORONTO, Canada, September 5, 1895.
A two days stay at Niagara Falls, spent
in exploration and inquiries. made me think
it the most lively and prosperous place be-
tween this and Washington. Its cheap
water power has made 1t a manufacturing
city of nearly twenty thousand Inhabitants.
Several large Touring mills are in opera
ton; also. mills that turn out immense
quantities of wood pulp paper for the daily
and weekly press, cheaper, it Is claimed
than at any other point. A monopoly is
enjoyed Of the manufacture from coke.
coal and another substance of a material
hard enough to polish diamonds. 1t is
probable that very many kinds of estab-
lishments needing cheap power, and plenty
of 1t, will be located at Niagara Falls City
Some of the active business men there
cherish the expectation that the city will
grow up as St. Paul and Minneapolis have
done. 1t has certainly grown rapidly in the
past ten years, while many other cities
have decreased. 1t is the only place have
seen where real estate prices have not gone
down, where real estate dealers are busy
and in good spirits and the building trades
are in healthy activity. Many of the
dwelling houses erected for workingmen
and their families are two stories high, well
built, roomy and with large yards. They
are models of their class. Niagara Falls

What Mny SOndify the Democrats in
Little Delaware.

Correspondence Of The Evening Star.
WILMINGTON, Del, September II, 1896
Peter ]. Ford, the wealthy morocco man
ufacturer Of this city, who was defeated for
the democratic nomination for governor
by Ebe w: Tunnell, has sent letter to
the democratic electors of Delaware in
which he denies report that has been
In circulation since the democratic con-
vention to the effect that he Is opposed to
the candidacy Of Tunnel and would lead a
movement to secure his defeat in New
Castle county. After clearly setting forth
his opinions and views on the question of
mans religious faith entering into his
candidacy for any public office Mr. Ford
says:
'As to the reason for my defeat, I must
cor fess on my honor as a man and Cath
olc. impeiled only by a sense of duty to
| our people, that do not ascribe my defeat
to my faith. Every instance in my can
d1dacy down to the close OF the ballot only
cor firms this conclusion. In the first place,
Wnlie the impression was tried to be created
that was in tie position of seeking office.
l desire to say. from the first day the sug-
gest1on was made to me by party of lead
hg democrats from the different counties,
all OF whom were Protestants, l never ap-
preached man in this state for the pur-
pose of influencing him in my behalf. My
stanchest and most unyielding friends in
the legislature. even to this day, 1 am
bers of the Protestant faith of the most
pronounced type"
He says he shall advocate and support
Mr. Tunnels election and earnestly begs
his friends to set aside all feeling of re-
sentiment, and do what he believes Mr..
Tunnel would have done had he been the
nominee.
In another paragraph of his letter Mr..
Ford says that he aScribes his defeat for
the nomination for governor to the machi-
EationS of two democratic politicians and
office holders Of his own religious faith,
and he warns them of his determination to
wreak his vengeance upon them at some
near future date.
Following SO closely after Mr.. Tunnelrs
letter of acceptance of the guberna torial
nc mination, this emphatic declaration by
Mr.. Ford that he proposes to support Mr.
Tunnel, is bound to have an influence in
the direction of harmony in the democratic
ranks.
Those democrats Of Wilmington and New
Castle who 8" loudly denounced Mr.. Tun-
nell IN and out OF the convention, did so
believing that Mr.. Ford would join them in
their crusade.
All these outbursts of indignation and
concentration Mr.. Ford's letter now de-
clares were directly abhorrent to his senti-
ments, and he urges that, they be discon-
tlnued at once.
The effect of Mr. F6rd'ss declaration will
probably not be felt for some time. There
Is little doubt, however, that 1t will be felt
soon enough to practically solidify the dem
ocrats on the state tieketas
