EI-PRESIDENT HARRISON.
THOUSANDS HEAR HIM SPEAK
AT CINCINNATI.
The Meeting Characterized Nth the
Greatest Enthusiasm -McKin-
ley Sure to Win.

CINCINNATI, Oct. lover 10000
people tried to hear ex-President Har-
r1Son speak at Music Hall to- night Ten
thousand succeeded. The balance were
turned away. The meeting was char
acterized by the widest enthusiasm
throughout. Hon. Thomas McDougall
introduced General Harrison, whose
voice was hoarSe from continued speak
ing. He said in part:
My fellow-citizens: have had a sus-
picion for some time that has been set
tied tonight. 1t is that it is not worth
while trying to keep the Presidency
out of Ohio. Governor Mckinley, who
was named by the Republican conven-
ton at ST Louis for President, is man
whose personal character is irreproach-
able. His is not the arduous greatness
of things said, but of things done Gap
plause)
There is a general concurrence now
in the fact that we are not living in
good times, and a remedy must be ap-
piled. The remedy we propose is this,
that a harmonious, well-adjusted reve-
producing and protective tariff
shall be substituted for that in force
at present. Great applause.) We pro-
pose that the revenues of the Govern
ment shall be made adequate to meet
expenditures. We propose that the
necessity for bond sales to replenish
diminished treasury and to restore
wasted gold reserve shall be remedied
by filing the treasury with adequate
revenue We propose that the money
Of the country, every dollar of it. shall
be kept at parity with other dollars.
What do our Democratic friends Of
fer? Free silver. This would help the
producers of silver bullion. Mr.. Bryan
has admitted that the silver miner
would get what he could, an incidental
benefit from having fifty cents worth
of bullion coined into a dollar. It is a
direct benefit. These great stock COM
panies, these great bonanza miners,
which have grown enormously rich, will
reap the benefit.
"The Democratic party has entered
into a career so widely different from
the old lines that every prominent man
who has had a hand in their councils
has deserted them"

SOUTHERN ELECTIONS.
Latest Returns From the States Ot
Georgia and Florida.

ATLANTA (Ga.), Oct. 7.-Reports to
the Constitution" from all parts of
the State indicate that Atkinsons ma
jCrity for Governor will exceed $4,000
with the probability that it will go over
10000. The majority for the remainder
of the State ticket will largely exceed
that of Atkinson, the probability being
that it will go beyond $4,000, while At
kinson's majority will be from 1900 to
1o,OOO larger than was received by him
two years ago, when it was 24,OOO.
His loss as compared with the re-
matnder OF the State ticket this year is
attributed to several complications. In
the first place, his opponent, Wright,
made vigorous personal campaign
against him, appealing to Prohibition
prejudice, Atkinson having made his
campaign in favor Of local option, and
Wright having been nominated by the
Populists on a platform to enforce State
prohibition.
Reports from every section of the
State show largely increased Democrat
ic majorities over the vote of two years
ago. Fulton County, in which At
lanta is located, will give Atkinson / 100
majority, and his majority in this Con-
gressional District will be nearly 5000.
The Democratic majority in Richmond
County will be over 5000. Reports in
dicate that the Democrats have carried
the Tenth District, which is the strong
hold of Populism in Georgia. Thomas
E. Watson lives in this district
RETURNS FROM FLORIDA.
JACKSONVILLE (Fla.), Oct 7.-Ofn-
cial returns from the State election are
just coming in, the count, owing to the
length OF the ballot, not being completed
in the larger counties until this after
noon. The returns indicate very light
vote and heavy Democratic loss as
compared with 1892
Complete returns from thirteen out of
forty-five counties give Bloxham Dem.)
for Governor S,7SS, Gunby Rep.) for
Governor 2.044, Weeks (Pop.) for Gov
ernor $40. The same counties in 1892
gave Mitchell Oem.) 11,629 and Bas-
kins (Pop) 1891. If the same ratio OBJ
tains in other counties the Democratic
vote will be about 24.OOO, a loss of about
5000 as compared with 1892.

Election of nckinley.

CANTON (O), Oct. I'M. A. Hanna
came here from Cleveland at $50 this
evening and left for Chicago at $50.
He spent the time in discussing the
campaign with Major Mckinley. 1t
was Chairman Hannas first visit here
since early last July, and Major Nc
Kinley went to the station to meet him.
Mr.. Hanna repeated his expressions Of
confidence in the situation in the East,
and said that he felt that there would
be no further need of his presence there.
He deems the fight in the East already
won, and thinks all signs point to a
sweeping victory in the West, but says
the work must be kept UP with vigor
there and everywhere till the polls close
on November 3D.
Mr. Hanna said THE speaking cam
paign is to be carried on more vigor-
ously than ever before in all so-called
doubtful States"
A good deal of active work for the
South was mapped out by Major Nc

livered by Chauncey M. Depew. Mr.
Depew recited the conditions under
which Lincoln and Douglas fought
thirty eight years ago. The apparent
contest, he said, was the statehood of
Kansas, but both the orators and the
people knew that the tremendous issue
was between freedom and slavery, the
dissolution of the Union or it's perpe-
tuity.
Mr.. Depew gave a concise history of
LincOln's life, and showed how thor
oughly he was in sympathy with the
movement to abolish slavery. He re-
counted at length the vigorous cam
paigns made by the two great leaders
which eliminated in the history max
ing debate at Galesburg thirty-eight
years ago to-day; dwelt upon the char
acteristics of the two debators and
showed win consummate skill the
points Of each and their modes of at
tack. The famous passage at arms by
the two great men were rehearsed, and
the well-remembered words We're
cheered to the echo
(Mr. Depew's address was long, and
would be spoiled by any attempt at a
synopsis. 1t will appear in full in the
Record Union on Sunday morning
next.-EDS.)
Hon. Robert T. Lincoln delivered
brief address which was followed by
the unveiling of the tablet by Professor
Finley'S three-year-old daughter
The tablet is of bronze, with raised
letters, and is about eighteen inches by
twenty-four inches in size. The in
scription on the tablet commemorative
of the debate is as follows:
This memorial tablet is placed here
to recall the joint debate between Abra-
ham Lincoln and Stephen A. Douglas.
whose words these walls echoed Octo-
ber the seventh, 1855"
Equality among the different States
is cardinal principle upon which all
our institutions rest'-Douglas.
He is blowing out the moral lights
around us who contends that whoever
wants slaves has a right to hold them

The unveiling address was then de-
livered by Senator Palmer
After the exercises a reception was
held at the college.
This evening Chauncey M. Depew ad-
dressed crowd of $4,000 Preceding
the address there was a parade partici-
pated In by 5000 people from different
parts of the country. Mr.. Depew spoke
for more than two hours. The speech
from beginning to end was a most logi-
cal one. The speaker was frequently
interrupted by applause, and he ar
raigned Mr.. Bryan and some Of his
statements regarding the benefits of
free silver to the workingmen of the
country. The address was one Of the
best ever delivered in this city.

deposited a $4,000 draft at Fort
Worth. representing himself to be a
wealthy cattle man. Then he and Nc
Kay travelled about the country issu-
ing checks on the worthless draft. The
sum of $3.50 was realized in this way.

the coast the swindlers mailed letters
to themselves which were duly received
at the hotels named one day after the
arrival of the guests.

feet. The counsel has been appreciated
