In Memoriam.
SCIILoTTERBECK. In memory Of JOHN SCHLop
TERBEl X; died June 3. 1895.
This day brings to memory
The grief that deaths stiBgs pay,
When suddenly father died,
One year ago today.
Suddenly did God him from us take
Without the slightest warning;
Yet we all hope to meet again
When our better life Is dawning.
BY HIS CHILDREN.

twenty.
Our Hattie.
She is not dead:
She is dead;
But sleeps that sleep
She did dread.
Never an unkind thought
Or unkind word
From those sauted lips
Was heard.
So pure to live,
SO sweet to die;
God took her TO
Himself on high.
In bed Of white roses
We laid her away;
But know she re1oices
In heaven today.
Thank God of life
This Is small part.
Up there-uD there

Mr.. LEVERING is HOPEFUL
Pr0hibiti0niSt Candidate Sees Victory
Away Ahead.
the Future-Can Compel
Recognition.

Baltimore, Nd, Nov. Joshua Lever
ing, Prohibition candidate for President Of
Ihe uhlted States, who has just returned
from an extended campaign tour of the
west ana South, reports that he spoke to
large ana enthusiastic audiences every
where. Toa number Of ofMarylandsupporters
who greeted him, here, he said:
Inc FrOhlDition party is recognized now
as an element in national politics.. Let US
he Jealous in our work for the cause and
particularly at the polling booth let US
we with each other in endeavoring to get
every frohlbition vote recorded. When we
are able to cast national vote of 75O, 900
the Prohibitiun party VIII be in Il position
10 compel one of the great parties to
espouse The anti-saloon cause, and the first
great victory Will be easily won against
that greatest enemy of the human race
the liquor traffic (applause).
Mchihley Is The weakest candidate the
Repu bncans could have nominated. He
says he wants the mills opened to give
labor employment. Why, my friends, there
are mills running all day and all night
rum mills-which take away most of the
wages earned in the other mills, and there
can DE no hope of prosperity until the
rum mills are closed.
bryan talks about giving us better
system of currency. This whole question
couiu DE decided in very short space of
time by committee of business men,
who ought to be appointed by the Presi-
dent, TO map out for us Il financial policy
which would give us stable currency.
I'VE hear much of the iniquity OF Tam
many. Why, Tammany was downed by
the New York saloon-kcepers because Tam
many refused To give an open sabbath to
the salCon-kecpers of New York. The Re
publicans came in and they put ON the
statute books the RaincS law, which is a
disgrace To this country. II shuts up the
small saloon, while it permits the big one
to have hotel license, and allows it to
sell all 1t wants under false pretense.'

trio of negroes bearded southbound train
and proceeded in a way to capture the

ventured to criticise their conduct. one
of them in particular, the largest of the
three, was especially pugnacious, and final
ly. when the conductor ordered them to
take their seats the big fellow threatened
all sorts of destruction to the official, and
defied him openly to lay hands on him.
The conductor passed 10 the next Car and
enlisted the services of an acquaintance of
rs. "A tOuncer at me cf lie smaller the
aters. This worthy weighed about 24O
pounds and was giant in strength and
size. He walked into the car where the
darkies stood, grabbed the big one, who
was at least half a foot shorter than the
bouncer, and dragged him to the door.
AS the. car was just then Stacking up
at station the bouncer threw the coiored
man clear over the gate and on to the
platform without waiting for the guard
to open the gate. The darky spra wled
all oyer the platform and his two COM
rades skunk to seats a the bouncer looked
back into the car. The train went on,
the two remaining "terrors' keeping very
still.
After several stations had been passed
one Of them spoke in subdued tones to the
other. All he said was, dat sholy was
a strong man"

and Courageous. They have Il sense OF JUS
tlcc and fair play and have generally the
courage OF their convictions. Above all,
they are law abiding.
I'VE are on the eve OF n Presidential
election, both great pa..ies contending for
the mastery. They are leaving no stone
unturned in order to be successful. \ for
egner looking on and witnessing the viu-
lent denunciation that one party is uttering
against another, and the terrible predictions
in regard To the future of the country If
the other party were To win, would think
that we were on the verge of dreadful
revolution. ..
"on next Wednesday morning he would
find that it was hut a bloodless revolution,
enc effected not by bullets, but by ballots.
A man is to lie chosen to the highest posi-
,ion in the gift OF his fellows and i'm
portant issues are at stake. Yet Oh next
Wednesday morning the minority viii bow
gracefully To the will Of the ma jority, the
country win survive and the nation will
flourish and be pcrptuated.

RESULT in NEW YORK.
Republicans Claim the State for Nc.
KinIey by 100000.

New York, Nov. 1.-The campaign closed
in this State last night. 1t has been
series OF hurrahs for the flag. appeals TO
patriotism and arguments for conservas
iism in financial and governmental af-
fairs.
The sound money naval display q week
ago and the monster street parade ycStcr-
day. IN which democrats as well as Re-
publicans fayoring the geld standard took
part, mark the campaign as one OF the
most enthusiastic ever conducted in the
Empire state.
The Democrats have managed the cam
paign for Bryan and Sewail in a seemingly
perflnctory way. With Senator Hill silent
william c. Whitney an avuwed Mckinley
man, and eX-Gov. Roswell ?. Flower and
other leaders stnmping for Palmer and
Buckner, ii has been a spiritless campaign.
Hard work has been done, ho wever, among
lahc ring men and the working classes and
the campaign Of education will be kept up
until Tuesday.
Mr.. Bryan has twice visited the State and
this city, which he termed the heart Of
the cncmy's country" Enormous crowds
greeted lin, but whether drawn by Gu
rlusity or belief in the principles which he
urges can only be conjcctured.
Throughout the State speakers have
haraneued crowds and tons of literature
lave been distributed by both sides. The
NatlUfdl DefnOcrllS nave conducted warm
campaign for Palmer and Buckner, and ;trc
confident OF making a showng at the polls
which viii justify them in continuing their
organization for future work.
The Prohibition and Socialist Labor par
ties have made their usual quiet campaigns.
The Peoples party, after vain efforts to
obtain recognition on the Democratic elect
oral ticket, indorsed the Bryan and Sewall
electors, and took down their State ticket,
with the exception of their nominee for
judge OF the court of appeals.
The Republicans claim they will carry
the state for Mckinley, by from 200, 900
upward. They expect to elect Frank s.
Black governor, and to capture the Con
gressional delegation of thirty-four, with
possibly two exceptions. They count upon
electing 100 out OF the 100 members of
the State legislature. thus insuring the
election OF Republican TO succeed David
B. Hill in the United States Senate.

BLAND ON THE ISSUES.
Says Bonds Must Be Issued to Main-
tain Gold Standard.

st. Louis, Nov. LIN a letter to the
Chronicle II Hon. Richard ?. Bland says:
at is plain that no system of taxation
that could be endured by the people of
this country can be resorted to maintain
the gold standard, consequently an unIm-
tied bonded debt must be forced upon
the taxpayers of this country if they are
to maintain permanently the single gold
standard under the present conditions.
But should Mckinley he elected he will
be powerleSs to secure the enactment nf
any law increasing the taxes of the people.
"The election of Mr.. Bryan will mean
the defeat of syndicates, of trusts and
combinations that have So long dominated
and controlled in our legislation, both upon
the subject of finance and taxation. 1t
will defeat the most braZen front that
plutocracy and corporate power has ever
shown in its attempt in the control of our
elections in the history of this country.
ut is a notorious fact that all reading
people understand that the election of
Mckinley is sought to be brought about 10y

Austin, Tex, Nov. III. W. Blake, chair
man of the State Democratic executive com
mittec, says that Bryan and Sewall will
undoubtedly carry Texas by at least co.
600 majority. Furthermore, he says every
Democratic nominee for Congress Will he
elected and the State ticket VIII receive
Il very large plurality.
The Republican committee, however, is
inclined to doubt these claims to ma
joritieS and says that there VIII be a
surprise for the Democracy when the bal
lots are counted.
Mckinley, II is believed, will hardly re-
ceivc 200 900 Votes out of a possible
total OF 200.
1t locks as though Culberson, Democrat,
for Governor, will be defeated by Kcarby,
ropulist, due to the Republican and sound
money Democratic vote going to him. The

CONFIDENT OF INDIANA.
Republicans Claim the State by Not
Less Than 25, 900.

indianapolis, Ind, Nov. 1.-Chairman
Gowdy, of the Republican State committee
this afternoon furnished the following
signed statement:
a conservative estimate OF the situa-
tion at this time shows that Indiana will
give a Republican plurality of not less
than $4,000, and il, as We have reason to
believe. n large per cent. OF the silent vote
is cast for the Republican ticket, the
plurality may reach 10000.
The Republican organization in Indi
ana is so compact and perfect in every de-
tail that we do not believe any attempt
by the advocates of free silver, by cor
ruption or other methods. can affect any
material change in the situation.
The Republicans will elect all OF the
thirteen Congressman, sixty-on members
of the lower house OF the general assembly.
and sixteen out of the twenty-five Senators
to be chosen. With the nineteen Republi
can hold-over Senators, this will give US
thirty-five in the Senate, majority of
twenty. The Republicans will have a ma
jority OF twenty-five in the House, giving
us a majority on joint ballot OF rorty-Uwu
This will insure the election OF a Repub-
lcan to the United States Senate to sue
