The War Scare Really Does Exist Among
Those Pesceful People.


The hardy people on Block island arr
taking the probabilities Of war with
Spain more to heart than Americans who
live In less exposed spots on the mainland
At present there are about !, 800 persons
on this island whose opportunities for OBJ
tanning the latest dispatches concerning
the Cuban affair are limited TO the trips OF
a steamer that runs to Newport on certain
days In the week or TO a telegraph wire
which Is extended TO the weather signal
station ON the island There Is no daily
paper to keep the islanders informed OF
the doings OF the powers at Washington.
A fleet of Block island fishing sinacks
arrived at this port recently for their an
nual overhaul preparatory to the begin
ming of the fishing season. The first Ques-
ton asked by the fishermen upon their ar
rival was In reference to the latest war
news. From talks with the fishermen 1t
was seen that many Of the islanders be-
lieve that war will come and are of the
opinion that the time Is not remote whom
some Spanish privateer may sail about the
island and lay 1t completely desolate. They
believe the summer hotel business stands
a good chance of being badly injured for
the season II the war scare continues much
longer The sufferings that the islanders
have passed through on similar occasions
in former years make them pessimistic on
the war question now.
The fishermen said that about 80 of the
more timid of the inhabitants had already
left the island TO visit friends on the COM
paratively sheltered mainland, and that an
actual outbreak of hostilities would see the
exodus of large number more. They
said that the native born Block islanders,
however, would not desert that insular
spot and that true Block islander will
never leave in time of trouble the island
on which he has spent his life. New York

VALPARAISO, Ind, Oct. 29.-The Demo-
Gratis are becoming demoralized in this
county and the leaders are being severely
criticised for bringing Hon. Samuel M. Rails
ton here to make speech. A Democratic
candidate for Office can hope to be
elected in this county only by large num-
Der of Republicans scratching their ticket.
For that reason the Democratic nominees
favor still-hunt and get pledges from Re-
publican voters on account of personal
friendship Up to the evening of Ralston's
speech the Democratic leaders had claimed
that free silver was not an issue and when
their candidate for secretary of state de-

ratio of JIG to l and the rest of the time in
abusing the administration for the way in
which 1t conducted the war, the Democrats
were first astOniShed and then their aston
ishment grew to Indignation at the way
they were trapped. At least one-third of
those in the audience were active working
Republicans and attended the speech to
learn what Democrat could have to talk
about. Since then the Repuulcans have lost
no opportunity TO chide the Democrats for
having a speaker who made votes for the
Republican ticket, until now it is not safe
to mention the name of Ralston to friend
of one of the Democratic candidates on the
county ticket.
