TIE "REyIEw" WANTS TO REVISE
ITS FIGURES.

zone of the surprises Of latter.day
politics was the result of the state elec.
ton in Louisiana on Tuesday. In 1888
this state gave 81 900 Democratic plu.
rality and 1000 for Cleveland in 1892
The returns Of Tuesdays election are in
complete, but if the Democrats get the
state at all they will be lucky. The Re.
publican gains almost everywhere were
phenomenal. The city of New Orleans,
which has 81, 900 registered white major
ity, has gone for Pharr, the Republican
candidate for Governor, by 500 to 900
majority, against % ,272 Democratic ma
jority at the last election. We are
moved to exclaim: "Can such things
he and overcome us like a summer cloud
without our special wonder"
Review.
Hold on hold on! hold on! Your
figures are something like Charley Gros-
venor's, who claims that Mckinley has
already l, 1853 delegates out of 955 dele
gates, of the convention. Don't at.
tempt to ram lot of fabricated figures
down the peoples throats to bolster up
the Republican cause, for you will be
called to a strict accountability for it.
We are here for that purpose. You say
that in 1888 Cleveland received $1,000
plurality in Louisiana, and yet he only
got 81, ,O32 votes. II he would have got
ten the votes of all the white people, ne
groes and Indians, he would still be
about 1000 short of the plurality you
give him. But where does the 30, ,4S4
votes come in that Harrison received in
1888? In New Orleans, you say the
Democrats had a plurality Of 22,272, and
yet the official vote shows that McEnery
the Democratic candidate for Governor
at the last election only received, in the
whole of Orleans parish in which the
city of New Orleans is situated, 20,S34
votes. But where do the 4,O3S votes
come in that the Republican candidate
fer Governor received at that election!
We do not know where the Review
got their figures, but they must certainly
have obtained them from Charley GrOs
yenor. If the editor of the Review viii
take the time to examine the Chicago
Daily News almanac, which is conceded
to be one of the best rosters of politica
information in the country, he will find
that Cleveland's plurality over Harrison
in 1888 was 81 ,54S; in 1892 it was 59,622
and in 1894 the Democratic plurality
over the Republicans was 1922. The
latest dispatches from the election or
Tuesday indicate that Louisiana ha'
gone Democratic by 3 5000 plurality, and
when it is known that there was des,
perate effort made by the sugar planters
to down the Democratic ticket, the vic
tory achieved by the Democrats is all
the more significant.

NO DEMOCRAT WILL BOLT.

A dispatch has been published to the
effect that VIM. J. Bryan, the Nebraska
silver leader, says he will bolt if the Chi
cago convention does not pass a free
coinage platform. If that is Mr.. Bryan's
position, he has no business in the Chi
cago convention. He must remember
that the money question is not the only
question before us. Democrats, or
men calling themselves democrats, who
have but one idea, should hunt up the
prohibition party, and stop there. The
Democratic party in its history and ira
ditions has never stood for only one
idea and never will. When the time
comes that any one man or any one
idea completely dominates the Democrat
ic party, then there is no hope for the
people from the rapine and plunder Of
Republicanism.

'I WILL NE'ER CONSENT-CON-
SENTED."

Senator Williams, Of Alliance, in de-
fining his position upon the infamous
Rogers bill the other day said: "My
signature, so far as it defines
my attitude on the bill, is alb
solutely meaningless nothing out
an accommodation. l do not and have
not indorsed the bill, and that is under
stood. shall decline TO be bound in
any degree to vote for the bill. In fact,
l look with much alarm at the constant
ly increasing tendency to indulge in
legislation which permits the expendi-
ture Of public money without a vote Of
the people directly interested. i voted
in favor of submitting the water work
scheme to vote of the people AMI look
upon the bestowal Of public franchises
in much the same light; as legislation
which, perhaps, should be passed upon
by the people before coming operative" /"
And vet Senator Williams. the Repub.
lican Senator from the Stark Carroll dis
trict, after making these pointed re-
ADQAA AAAC AAAAaA ONn
lowed his manhood to shEiVel up, and
bowed with Difference to the will Of For
aker, who prostiluted his political inilu-
enee to rob the people of their rights.
The bill was nOtOriOusly the spawn of
monopoly greed, that was hatched into
the semblance Of life by the party lash.
There were many members who believed
it an unWiss and unjust measure, but
party despOlism hurled the doom Of the
traitor upon all who dared to think,
speak and act for their constituents, and
a servile legislature has simply recorded
the mandate of intolerant and suicidal
leadership.
How can Senator Williams ever face
the people Of his district again. after
being a party to a gigantic conspiracy
which strikes a death blow at their
nights.

A MODEL LEGISLATOR.


There is one man in the Ohio legisla-
ture today who stands head and shoul-
ders above any other man, and is as far
above the pigmies who control the body
as heaven is above the earth. He is as
honest as Roscoe Conkling, as heroic as
James G. Blaine, and as patriotic as
Allen 6. Thurman. Many may equal
him in breadth ofintellectual powers, but
in the individual qualities of courage
that never falters, of integrity that is
ever undimmed in its lustre and Of
action that is unfiagging in the execution
of bis honest convictions, he stands
single and alone among the Ohio states
men of today. He has been faithful to
every trust, has been brave when others
feared and he has stood like a wall of
adamant against the angry surges of
corruption. He does not straggle In the
rear of the procession of public opinion,
but he seeks to lead it. He has been the
relentless fee of corporate greed all
through the session. He has proposed
several wise and julicious measures, but
they were showed aside because they
came from a Democrat. But he is one
of the very few men who can stand on
the floor Of the house and in all the
dignity of his unshackled manhood point
with pride to his public pledges and
public honesty as the guides to his pub
lie action. He commands the confidence
of his fellow citizens and he grandly
typifies the noblest governments on earth,
where the popular will is the supreme
law. This mans name is General Aquila
Wylie, of Wayne county.

The Akron Beacon and Republican, in
replying to the News Democrat about
CantOn's population, says that "the two
things which contributed to it, were the
increase in territory, and the arrival Of
the Dueber Works, but this cannot oc-
enr again" We are not so sure Of that.
We now have as much outlying territory
as we had ten years ago when the cor
pOratiOn limits we're extended, and an
effort will be made to get them in be-
tween now and 1900. As to securing
another Dueber Works, We beg leave to
inform our friend that We have a wide
awake board Of trade that works with a
tireless energy, and loses no time what
ever in looking after Canton's interests.
They may not get another watch works,
but factories and workshops of other
kinds will ,lO equally as well to increase
the Popub.tion.

GES. T.. B. FINLEY, OF BucyTus, in re
plying to CArlisle's speech, says that
''the Democratic party stands not for
free silver alone. but for true bimetal-
lisIn. 1t stands for the use Of both gold
and silver as legal tender money, to be
coined by the government ON equal
terms, and ii is hardly fair TO speak Of
the friends Of bi-melallisn as free silver
Democrats. If the party at Chicago
adopts the bi-metAllie platform, and
and nominates good Democrat on the
platform, the chances are more than
equal that he will be elected"

He immortalized himself by opposing
the vicious ripper bill for Dayton. He
wears rather loose robe Of partisan al
legiance, and this Of itself makes him a
good senator. There is talk Of sending
him to Congress from the district that
was represented by his father for nine
consecutive terms, and he certainly
merits the honor.

BREWERS BRACED UP.
And Hit the Ball for Fourteen Singles
and Seven Runs.


Special TO the Indianapolis Journal
MILWAUKEE, Wis., Sept. 2.-Watkins
wanted the third game of the series with
the Brewers badly, SO to-day he put
Fisher in the box, but the result was as
disastrous as it was unexpected, as the
locals pounded out fourteen singles and
won the game easily that even the
spectators were amazed. Barnes was at
his best and the Brewers gave him admir-
able support, the three errors made hav-
ing no effect in the result, while the
visitors misplays made a difference of two
runs. Shannon and Hogan played bril-
liantly and ShiebeclI stopped a line drive
from Hartman's bat that electrified the
spectators. Taylor was at his best and his
fielding, together with Fartman's batting,
contest.
The locals scored a run in the first on
Fishers gift of a base to McHale, Weaver S
sacrifice and Hartman's single but the
visitors came up smiling and duplicated the
performance on Shannon's three bagger
and McCarthy's out to Weaver In the
fifth Ncf1ale, Hartman Stafford and Glen
alvin hit safely and errors by Wood and
Shiebeck, together with Hartman's steal
gave the Brewers three runs. In their half
the champions made two runs the gift
of a base, McCarthys triple and hit
in the sixth with another run made on
a base on balls, sacrifice and a single.
Three more hits were made off Fisher S
delivery in the seventh by Glenalvin,
of the game gave the Brewers a cinch, as
the amended score shows:

himself as we'll as his admirers expected.

heat at any time. In the one-mile profess
sional he won fourth money and s35 repre-
sents his winnings so far at the Spring

day. The handicaps were so heavy in the
