WARMLY WELCOMED. PMLADRLFHIA, S e p t 2 6 . — T h e l i t -

tle whaling steamer Kite, with Lieut. Peary's exploring party and the Peary relief party on board, arrived at her dock in this city at noon Friday. A Idrge crowd had assembled, and the arrival of the steamer was greeted with much cheer-ing. As already reported by members of the two parties from S t Johns, N. B., both expeditions have been emi-nently successful, making exceptionally favorable passages without sickness or storm of any kind.

Lieut Robert E Peary, the explorer, and Prof. Angelo Heilprin. commander of the relief party, expressed their sat-isfaction with the results which have been achieved to crowds of their friends, feliow soientisU of the Phila-delphia academy and representatives of the newspapers, who steamed down the Delaware in tugs to meet the re-turning explorers.

A continual ovation from steam whis-tles and bells on every craft in the har-bor greeted the Kite. It was 11:80 o"clock when the dock vias reached and an anxious throng of waiting friends of the members of both par-ties at once swarmed the decks. A re-ception committee from the academy was already on board, having met the Kite some miles below the city.

Miss Verhoeff. a sister of John M. Verhoeff. who failed to return with his fellow explorers, being reported dead, accompanied the reception committee with her aunt and uncle. They dis-credit the t ?ory that the missing min-eralojrist was accidentally killed and firmly believe that he ij> even now ex-ploring the interior of Greenland, hav-ing voluntarily remained behind.

Lieut Peary himself refuses to say anything concerning VerhoefTs disap-pearance beyond what has already been mentioned in the dispatches. He denies, however, that differenoea ex-isted between htoself and the inde-pendent but ambitious Kentuckian. Other members express ignorance of any trouble between the two men or of VerhoefTs intention to explore for himself.

William E. Mehan. the botanist of the relief party, said that the search for the mineralogist occupied seven days, and that ever^ member of both expe-ditions. nine Esquimaux and the ship's crew were engaged in i t Traces of Verhoeff had been found on the sixth d.-.v near a number of large creva>ses, into which there was every reason to believe he had fallen.

Peary himself thinks there is not one cl-.aaoe in a thousand of Verhoeff being al ve. If he is living, however, the lieutenant 'leclares he can communi-cr.te with his friends by whaling vessels which visit that country in November. On other subjects the explorer talks fn-ely. He says he could get far ther north if the ••ea of ice were unbroken. He is satisfied that Greenland is an island.

At 10 o'clock on the morning of Aug. ] 3('lli we walked down the Kaug plank of 1 ferry Aberdeen, and as the lioat awung into the stream, waved a good bye to | the many friends upon the wharf that bad asaemblcd to see us off.

At Gate City we changed to the Portland branch passed through Olympia, the capitol of the state, and at 4:30, run into the capa-cious depot of Tacoma. Here we had intenditl to take a steamer up the sound to Seattle, but finding that the boat had left, we returned to the depot and made the trip by lail. Owing to a wreck up-on the track we were detained an hour, and it was nearly « o'clock when we ar-rived at Seattle, where we were met by Elder Hose (well known in Lowell in war times) who with his danghter, Cora are living on Lake Washington. The lake is three miles from Seattle, and connected by three lines of street rail-way. We look the Madison-st. line ami after a succession of up and down grades ai an angle of nearly 43° arrived 1 at the lake terminus, to find the sleam- | ers all tied up lor the night.

"A :.AtirA, Oa.. Sept. :i—To Mr. It. D. Ir-win. Chairman State Committee, People's Parly. Atlanta. Oa.-Dcar Sir; At the urgent reqnrst of your committee I entered this State on the "JUh Inst, for the purpose of addressing the people of Georgia upon the political situa-tion and the issues Involved In the present na-tional campaign. The places named for said meetings were: Waycross, Albany. Columbus, Macon.Atlanta. Maalson. Augusta and Elberton. 111 nd the spirit of oriranlied rowdyism at some of the points visited within the stale so great as to render It inadvisable for me to attempt to nil the engagements at the points not already reached. Persotial Inalgnlty wns threatened at WuycroM, but was suppressed by the attend-ance of a large number of our friends and the careful management ot Mr. Reed, tne local chairman.

"At Albany we met a howling mob whfch re-fused to accord us a respectful and uuinter-ruptedhearing. Ourmectlne at Columbus was a .'rand success, thanks to the superior man-agement of Mr. C. .1 Thornton About S.vWO people attended this meeting and gave us re-•peetful and enthusiastic attention.

"At Macon the conduct of the mob which greeted our advent Into that city was simply disgraceful beyond description. Rotten eggs w. re thrown prior to the introduction of the speaker, one of which struck Mrs. Weaver on the h' ad. Eggs were thrown repeatedly during the continuance of the mob: turbulent crowda continued to howl and hoot until past midnight.

•'At Atlanta a similar crowd of rowdies gath-ered at the point of meeting, beni on tumult and disorder. Learning of this, Mrs. Lease and myself refused to appear either In the forenoon or In the evening I am coavlneert that similar treatment awaits us at the points not Tlalted. I decline to meet inch appointments. The member* of our party, although apparently largely In the majority In the state, are unable

PASTOR E. H. SHANKS.

The examination of the afternoon was listened to by a church full of spectators who took a lively interest in the doctnn-nal questions that were brought out. The order of the examination was as follows; First. Christian experience; second. Call to the Ministry; Third. Doctrinal Views. Alter the examination the council dismissed the candidate and voted toordainhim.all questions having been answered satisfac ton ally.

There were six churches represented on the council of examination and ordi-nation, the ministerial delegates being Dr J . S. Jackson. Revs. R. W. Van Kirk. J . Luafhall, H. Remhaw, C. W. Dealtry and H. W. Powed, formerly pastor of this church. The Baptist church of this place was represented on the council by W. H. Eddy and Deacons Bissell, Rob-ertson, St very and Carter.

In the evening the house was crowded almost tn cuffocation to witness the im-pressive bcrvices of ordination. The house was neatly decorated, by the friends of the candidate, with beautiful flowers and especially fine music was ar-ranged for the occasion. Dr J . L. Jack-son preached the ordination Krmon which held the uudience as well as the neophyte to the end. The ordination prayer was made the Rev. Laushall while the miuisterial delegates perform-• d the impressive rite of "laying on of hands." The charge to the church was made by the Rev. Harvey Renshaw, of Alto, and the charge to the Pastor by-Rev. H. W. Powell. Welcome to the Baptist ministry, by Rev. D.*altry. and the benediction was pronounced by Rev. E H.

Growth of the Posta l Service.

The growth of the postal service in the past three years has been" something remarkable. The number of new of-fices added to this list from March 1SS9. to March 4, 1883, w'as 10,549. The revenue in those three years increased over $40,000,000. Even in the matter of receipts from registry letters the fees in creased a half million dollars. In these three years there has been over 54.000, 000 miles of railroad, steamship and star sen-ice. but at lower rates than be-fore. The increase in receipts of tha past three years was more than double the increase in the three years preced ing.

that night we were compelled 10 charter a skiff and row ourselves across. The lake was quiet, and as we pulled away from the shore the young moon cast a long line of light across the water, but in front all was darkness. At distant points along the further shore, lights were visible, but none in the direction we were going, and we took our course a good deal by guess. An hours hard pulling brought us near the shore and by the dim light of the stars we found our landing and soon after were in the hospitable home of our hoet and supper waiting, to which we were prepired to do ample justice.

Mr Rose and Cora have a home upon a patch of ground about a half mile from the shore of the lake where they keep a hon>e and cow and raise their own garden truck, and are as indepen-dent as nabobs. Mr R. is pastor of a church about a mile down the shore, and Cora is his factotum in his church work. Lake Washington is a beautiful j body of water. «4 miles long and from

to 5 miles wide and from 10 to 1,090 feet in depth. It is surrounded by high , banks, well timbered witu lir, spruce 1

and cedar, and several busy little towns and many fine residences are scattered along the shore. Several of the most opulent of Seattle's business men have their residences on the shores of the lake surrounded by a wealth of flowers and fruit trees. After a day amid the rush and jostle, the noise and confusion of the city, they retire to their homes upon the banks of the lake and breathe the pure air unmolested and undisturb-ed. The water of the lake stands I» f t . above the water of Puget Sound at hign tide, and the people of Seattle are very anxious to connect the two by a ship canal. A government appropriation for this purpose was before congress at its last session, but failed to pass. That would be a nice scheme for the people of Seattle.

(to be continued next week.)

t wish to call especial attention U> the fact that tbe disorder Is almost exclusively con fined to young roughs who Infest the towns and who are Incited to violence by persons who keep In the background. The country people are uniformly respectful and anxious to hear. It Is especially worthy of note that the disorderly conduct does not proceed ' rom the confederate soldiers, who are manly almost without exception In their con-duct and generally in aympathy with our movement. The police force a t the disorderly points named made no effort, so far as i« known, to preserve good order. In some Instances they gave open countenance to tbe tumult 1 think It Is but fa i r to say that many pood people who are In svmpathy with the pco-p'e's party openly denounce these outrages, but they teem powerless to asse r t themselves.

Any democrat can vote for any or all of them knowing that the affairs of Kent county will be well guarded and faith fully cared fo r . . Carefully compare this ticket with the others in the field, throw aside prejudice and look to your own in-terest and you will vote the ticket given above.

THE REPUBLICAN COUNTY Ticket, this fall, is particularly strong and merits the support of all who desire that the affairs of this county behest administer-ed. Our candidates are all reliable ex-perienced men and we invite comparison with the mongrel tickets in the field.

H O N . CYRUS E . P E R K I N S f o r J u d g e o f

Probate needs no introduction to the people of this county n» r words of com-mendation from us. His record In that office which comes nearest to the people is his strongest argument for a re-elec-tion. His uniform courtesy, bis kind-ness of heart aud his quick appreciation of the complex matters which come be-fore him have given him the confidence and esteem of all with whom he has been brought in contact.

first class nomination. He is widely ac qnainted in the county and thoroughly undertands the duties of the office to which he aspires. A democratic attor-ney of Grand Rapids said of him ' 'be is thoroughly competent and the beet man for the office that could have been nam-ed. When papers are put in his hands we know that they will be properly serv-ed and the proper returns made, saving litigants costs from cases being thrown out of court through errors." He will receive the solid support of Republicans and should be supported by those who desire the ''best man for the place."

FRANKLIN D. EDDY for County Clerk is the especial pride of Lowell and east ern Kent. He should be elected for his particular fitness for the place, he is capable honest, obliging, and courteous; the humblest would receive at his hands the same consideration and attention that would be accorded to the President of these United States. He is u rising young man and bis friendships are warm

The congressional convention met at Grand Rapids last Friday and unani-mously and by acclamation re-nomin-ated our present Congressman, Hon. C. E. Belknap.

The convention listened to several good speeches from Ex Lieut-Gov. Cros-by, Hon. Geo. W. McBride, Col. J . M. Kidd, Hon. W. W. Mitchell. Rev. J . T. Husted and others. There was lots of enthusiasm and all prospects of bury-ing, so deep that he will never again be resurrected, the Squawbuck-fusion-Peo-pies-Party-Democratic Richardson, of Ottawa Oo.

From every side comes assurance Of the success of our ticket, and with tbe hearty support of the people that is being accorded, the prospects could not be better than they now are.

The campaign was opened last Mon-day evening by a good meeting at Music Hall. The meeting was addressed by Hon. J . Wight Giddings, candidate for Leuit. Gov. and Judge M. C. Burch. The Hall was filled and the points in the addressee brought out hearty applause. Mr Giddings treated the tariff question in a masterly manner, dwelling particu larly on the reciprocity features and showing benefits that cannot be gain-said. All through his speech he could feel that he was in touch with his audi-ence and they regretted as much as he did, that the necessity of catching a train cut his speech short.

Judge Burch took up the argument where left by Mr Giddings and ably fill ed any little gap that might have occur red. The meeting broke up at 10:!t0 with cheers for the ticket and a 'pre-monition, felt, that ours was the win-ning cause.

ister comes from the township of Algo-ma. He is a farmer and that he has the respect and esteem of his fellows is shown by the fact that he has represent-ed them on the board of Supervisors for several years and no man on that board receives more respectful attention. He is backed by the Republicans of northern Kent and by many democrats also. He will give a careful and correct adminis-tration of the affairs of his office.

Treasurer is a resident of Grand Rapids, a laboring man, a barber and a good one and enjoys the respect of all. He is of German descent and deservedly popular among his compatriots. He was elected Alderman of bis ward, a strong demo-cratic ward, but was unseated by a dem-ocratic board. He is administrator of the Fry Estate and is carrying on the large business of the deceased In a masterly manner. He will look after the finances of the county carefully nnd economically and certainly should be elected.

Prosecuting Attorney is not a stranger to any of you as he has taken active part in tbe campaigns of the past eight years. He is a rising young attorney and has the respect and esteem of the entire bar of Kent county. He is honest, upright, capable, energetic and moral and the affairs of bis office will not be conducted so as to bring a blush to the cheeks of any of his constituents. No one will have to apologize for his acts, he will do his duty at all times and keep a careful eye on "the expenses of his department.

Fusion is not a sign of political strength as some are led to suppose by gazing upon the gilt fringe on the out side of the combine Fusion really and truthfully is a sign of party weakness, and takes place only where confusion abounds. Any party built upon a code of principles rightfully based, loses its identity and power the very moment it coalates with another party established upon other principles. The weakness and shallowness of political conviction is shown in that the party is willing to forego its principles for tbe sake of com bining in an element or power to de-throne a greater power. The Republi-can party is rooted and grounded in its principles of equal rights, home protec lion, honest money, liberal wages, motto. "Th ; greatest good- to the great-est number of America's Inhabitants.

The difficulty, however, is that nothing is left worth making an issue. That the, great battle must be upon the line laid down by the Democratic convention of (

The only other issue left is that of state banks, and the Democrate are get-ting very weary of that. Advices from all over the country show that not only the business men but citizens generally-dread the thought of the re tnrn to the old state bank system and to the un-stable currency which it furnished when it was in operation. Hence the propo-sition of the Democratic platform to re-move the tax of state bank currency is proving one of the most unpopular prop-ositions that has made its appearance in the platform of either of the great par-ties for many years.

The reiiorts received from the south-ern states indicate that the Republican prospects in a half dozen of them are good. If the Republicans set themselves actively at work in West Virginia, Vir-ginia, North Carolinia, Alabama, Ten-nessee and Louisiana there is reason to believe that they may break the solid south in many spots. If they are de-termined and active both in their or-ganizations and in seeing that they have a fair vote and a fair count there will be a number of electoral votes from the south for Harrison and an increased number of Republican congressmen from that section. Hon. Thomas Settle, candidate for congress from the Fiftu North Carolina district, talking upon this subject said:

The prospects of the Republican party in North Carolina and other southern states were never brighter. The Democratic party is in a sad state of confusion. It endeavored to placate the Alliance, but the Alliance could not be placated."

I ' r o t e r t l o n S t r o n g In t h e S o u t h .

What are the issues upon which the Democrats are making their fight?"

The offices. That is all they have to fight for. The protection sentiment has grown so strong in the south that they dare not make a fight on that."

Two subjects seem to be interesting the farmers of the country very greatly. One of these is the continuation of the present tariff system, and the other is the danger of a return to the old state bunking system which troubled them so much years ago. No class of people suffered so much from tbe losses and business annoyances attendant upon the state bank currency as did tbe farmers. The people of tbe cities and towns, es-pecially the business people, had means of keeping themselves well posted on the value of the various kinds of bunk notes that were put afloat by the banks. but the farmers had not this opportu-nity.

The importations of farm products of the class produced in this country were greatly restricted by the increased duties placed upon this class of articles by the McKinley law.

He made a dliv to rccotvr the pnjnr. General O. M. Mitchell, although past

middle age in 1862, was one of the most romantic soldiers of the war. He was an able, patriotic man, and if he had any fail-ing as a commander it was in perfecting more plans than a dozen armies could execute. Among these plans waa one for the capture of Chattanooga b j ad-vancing a force rapidly along the right bank of the river, the feasibility of which was subsequently demonstrated by the brilliant expedition under Gen-eral Negley.

hills of north Alabama, recently mus-tered into our service, all young, eager : and well mounted, left Stevenson for j

j the Cumberland mountains to the north of the Tennessee.

Having jus t made in perfect safety a trip down the mountains from Ken-, tucky with six men. all in uniform, I was sent with this expedition.

Lin Moore was the man on whose knowledge of the mountains we relied chiefly during this scout. Before start-ing out he assured General Mitchell that he "knew the Cumberland mountains from end to end as well as if he had

i built 'em by days' work," and the result showed that he was not a braggart.

On this scout six of us. under Lin's guidance, cut loose from the main body and pushed toward the east, till one midnight we dismounted on the crest of

j a hill from which we looked down on Moccasin point, subsequently to become famous, and could see the white tents of the Confederates gleaming like opals in the moonlight from LookouP moun-tain to Chattanooga.

Satisfied with the outlook, we moved back from this elevation to a little stream at the base, where we threw our-selves on tbe groun J to rest while our wearj- horses were grazing.

j As I had planned to examine, so far as I could do so with a field glass, the posi-tion and extent of the Confederate de-fenses on the following mon;ing, it was understood that we should remain where we were for the night; and as the little ravine was out of the way and as much secluded as if we had lieeu in a cave, Lin Moore thought it would be perfect-ly safe to lie duwn, and he showed his confidence by wrapping up his boots in his coat, putt ing the bundle under his L-wd and dropping off to sleep in no time. The rest of the party foUowed Lin's example.

bird 1 over I -.rd." "Oh. Hen - in ' t a bird: he's a nut'ral."

said Lin M' ro with the manner of a man who. iL .ils own opinion, has given a full and satisfactory oxpluimtiou. Bnt I was more perplexed than over.

Seeing this, Lin Moore whispered: "Hen—that's Hngb Neil's son; he's a

plum eejit." "Who, Hugh McNeil?" "No, Hen, that 's him a-makin believe

op thar that he's a hull string of tree toads. Oh, him and me'a ole friends, and offin slept together in these hills afoah the wah. No one wouldn't think a nat'ral could be so kaowin as Hen. He'd corner a lawyer axin questions, and as fo' mockin any sound he evah heahs, he can't be beat. Why, hit's mos' sur-prisin. There, that 's the cronk of wild geese, and we uns, ef so be we tins didn't know 'twas Hen, would believe them birds wuz a-flyin right straight ovah-head, and we could most see 'em formin a triangle, as they most alias does, 'way up in the sky. But I'll fotch him down, fo', beip a nat'ral, thar ain't no hahm into him."

The guide placed two fingers in his mouth and emitted a long, low whistle, mding with the musical cry of the quail, "bob white."

"Bob white! bob white! bob white!" was echoed quickly from the rocks. Then came ihe crash of a loosened stone that went hurling dangerously close, aud a minute after an atldetic figure, with something like a knapsack on its back and a long rifle in its right hand, stood before us. But i t was too dark to dis-tinguish the dress or features.

"Hello, Heal" was Liu Moore's salu-tation, as he extended both hands, "whar yo' bin and whar yo' gwine?"

"Bin hellenback; nawthin t e a t Who's you uns?"

This is what Hugh McNeil's Hen rat-tled off in a far away ventriloquial voice, and as he asked the question he laid his hand on my shonlder.

"This is a blue sojer, PWn, and my friend." said Lin. Then in a whisper, "Any grays nigh bar?"

"Oh, lots, lots, lots," replied Hugh McNeil's Hen.

" W h a r Is they, Hen?" "Ovah yon," aud he pointed in the di-

rection of Chattanooga. "Oh, yaas," said Lin, evidently much

relieved, then adding. "Wa'al, Hen, ef you uns'll lie down and not open yer lips ' till daylight I'll gin yo' breakfast, eh?"

For answer, Hugh McNeil's Hen laid ' his pack on the ground and his head on ' the pack, and began snoring so soon that I was sure he was either playing :

one of the tricks of which we had so re- j cently had a sample, or that he was eager to get into our good graces by pre- j tending to comply instantly with Lin's request.

In a direct line wo were not a mile from the enemy's camps across the Ten-nessee: indo tl. while 1 was glancing over the paper, I conld see rising above the trees to the southeast the smoke of the little steamer which the Confederates used aa a ferryboat. The position was

delicate, and it was necessary to act quickly. The men were distributed to examine the river below the bend and above the town, with orders to meet for the return at noon in the same place.

Lin Moore accompanied me to a point which he promised would give m e a good chance to note the extent of tbe western and river defenses of the little city. To my great discomfort Hugh McNeil's Hen kept close to our heels, whittling the splintered guustock with the Barlow knife.

"Thar aint uo dainjah from Hen," said Lin Moore in response to my ques-tion. "If so be he was to see blood hit'd drive him plnm wild with fear. Come up bar, Hen." The guide halted till Hen, still intent on testing his knife, stood before him. "Just look thar, cap'u, now w'at do you uns think that is?" He pushed up the matted hair from the idiot's forehead and discover-ed the purple crescent I had noticed be-fore.

"That was a terrible wound when first made," I said, "and I presume it is the cause of the poor fellow's present condition."

"Waal , yaas," drawled the guide, as he let the hair fall and we resumed our tramp up the hill, the summit of which was not five hundred yards from the river, and within rifle reach of the near-est Confederate camp. "But that wound wasn't made on Hen's head, but on his father's. If you uns ever see Hugh Mc-Neil—and hit's mos' likely yo' will, if so be we uns git into Marion county, fo' he lives in the hills nigh to Jasper—notice his forehead, and yo'll see the skull kind-er caved in in a circle like that scar on Fen's. Hit all happened 'bout foah I months afo' Hen was bawn. Hugh—he i was a powahful driukin man in thim j days—got into a fight with a blacksmith \ down to Jasper, and the blacksmith fetched him a clip on the head with a twenty pound sledge hammer and hit laid him out. Sue McNeil heard her husband was dead and she come down to the town, where she found a doctor perpahrin to fix the wound, and when she seed hit she fell rightovah in a f a in t That's why Hen's got the mark and is ES he is, and can't abide tbe sight of blood."

"Hoo-hoo-hoo, hoo-oo!" ending with the shrill whistle peculiar to the white owl.

This seemed more in keeping with the time and place, and I was again about to pull off my boots, when suddenly a rivalry started between the whippoor-will and the owl, aud they dashed along "neck and neck," the hooting and lhe whiKli ing increasing in rapidity till the rocks rang again, and very much per-plexed I rose to my feet and walked back to t ry and get a view of the cliff, but as the ful l moon was sloping west-ward it was in shadow.

Whether Hugh McNeil's Hen went to sleep instantly af ter lying down I think very doubtful, but when I got up aud went over to look at him t':ere could be no mistaking the fact of his being as dead asleep as one of the fabled Seven of Ephesus.

As we were about to partake of the cooked rations we had brought with us, Lin Moore woke up the "nat 'ral ," who at once sprang to his feet, and to the great amazement of those who had not heard him the night before, he clapped both arms to his sides and began to crow so much like a cot-k that it only required turning the back on him to be entirely deceived. One of the scouts defioribed the deception perfectly when be said:

"If I was to hear that crowing in the dark I'd never stop sarchin till I found a henroost, and my stomach would be sot for fried chicken next day."

We shared with him our cooked ra-tions, but did not give him all he wanted to e a t 1 donbt if we should have had

The following letter, read a t a recent meeting of New York Republicans, shows the unmistakable att i tude of ex-Senator Piatt and his confidence in Re-publican success:

Commenting on this roundabout movement of the main army of tbe Con-federates in the west, the editor said, "This moans that Bragg will transfer the fighting from northern Mississippi, Alabama and Tennessee to tbe banks of the Ohio before the summer is over." And tbe editor was so entirely correct that Bragg would have been quite justi-

the angry barking of two dogs—one savage monster and the other a pngna-cious "fioe."

I crept over to Lin's side, and bending down so as not to break in needlessly on the sleep of my near by companions, I whispered for him to get up aud step back with me.

Drawing Lin back, so as not to disturb the others, 1 told him of what 1 bad heard, bu t before he could frame a re-ply the noise began again. This time i t was the bellowing of a distant aud evi-dently a belligerent bull.

"Doggone hit. who'd 'a ' thought hit?" was the guide's comment.

"Thought what?" I asked in surprise. "Why, that he'd 'a' come ovah hax." "Who'd V come?" I asked, unoon-

I folded the paper and was putting i t carefully away in an inside pocket when Hugh McNeil's Hen began malnng signs of disapproval His face became livid, and he muttered and made a dive to recover the paper. As he did he threw back the matted hair f rom his forehead and I saw for an instant a pur-ple, crescent shaped scar running from temple to temple afcout a half inch be-low the hair, and 1 concluded that this was the reason for the poor fellow's de-mentia.

"Hold up. Hen!" cried Lin Moore, and he laid his hand restrainingly on the idiot's arm, " the capVll pay yon for that ."

Acting on the hint 1 offered Hen a dollar, but he refused it; then I recalled that I had in my saddlebags a barlow knife, which I had used for cleaning out my horse's hoofs; this 1 gave him, aud he received it. with a whole covey of bob while calls.

See lies About the City. Walk about the city and you are moro

impressed than ever with the contrast between the condition of the Republic-ans and the Democrats. Republican banners float to the breeze everywhere. On aristocratic Fifth avenue you find Harrison and Reid banners, and in the less pretentious streets and narrow pas-sageways of the city those names spring up again and again, as if by magic. Look down the streets ns you pass and von are impressed with the holiday ap-pearance caused by the prevalence of banners and flags. And the larger pro-portion of these which bear the names "Harrison and Reid." shows the advan-tage which the Republicans have in the matter of activity.

A Democratic Ranker's Views. An official of one of the largest banks

jf New York city, speaking of this sub-ject said: "Nothing has impressed mo more stnongly than the contrast between '.he course of the two parties in this par-icular. Banners don't vote, to be sure, but they indicate a great deal in the evi-lence of enthuKiasm in the parties they

.represent." "How do yon find the business people

feeling on this subject?" 1 asked. 1 con-fess that 1 was not a little intereated in his reply, for he is a Democrat and I was curious to see how a Democrat who is brought into close contact with the great bnsiness element of New York found the situation. Itttslne.s Men Expect Kepubllcan Success.

"The business people," he answered, 'apparently expect the Republicans to

succeed. 1 notice that the Democrats in the business world take very little in-terest in the campaign. Even those who make professions of a belief in Democratic success when they are con-cerned admit that they have little con-fidence in the result. All the people who aro willing to bet on tlie result are on the Repnblican side Democrats who talk about betting on Cleveland back down if they are pnshed into the comer." Prosperity the Cause of Democratic

Apathy. 1 was curious to know what was the

real cause of this apparent apathy on the part of the Democrats. An investi-gation shows that it grows largely out of the tariff situation. Careful inquiries into the condition of the manufacturing industries of New York state show that they are flourishing as they have never flourished before. And their prosperity is attributed to the tariff system which Mr. Cleveland and his followers aro pledged to destroy. Investigations into the condition of the various manufac-turing interests have shown this to be the f a c t The clothing manufacturers, the glove makers, the cutlery manufac-turers. the pearl button factories, the great shirt and collar manufacturing establishments of Troy, the iron and steel industries, the tin plate manufac-turers. the clothing manufacturers and dealers and many other industries of this character report increased produc-tion. increased wages, increased profits and reduced prices to the public for goods they manufacture.

The exporters report improved mar-kets and better prices for American pro-duction. both in Europe and in Central and South America. The most strik ing argument, however, in favor of the McKinley law comes from the Demo-cratic commissioner of labor. Peck, who reports increased wages for more than a quarter of a million workmen, amounting to over $6,000,000 under the first year of the McKinley law. and over $::0.000.000 increase of manufac-tures.

Harmonious Itepubllrans. Another extremely encouraging lea-

ture of the situation to the Republicans is the thorough harmony in Repnblican ranks and the thorough lack of that article in Democratic ranks. The con ference at the residence of Whitelaw Reid. the Republican candidate for vice president, in which Senator Piatt. Gen-eral Clarkson, Warner Miller and others met the president with great cordiality, shows that the New York Republicans are thoroughly united and thoroughly in line fur Republican success. Un the other hand, the apparent lack of har-mony on the Democratic side catihes great depression among the leaders and in tlie rank and file of that party.

Democrat* All at Kea. Tlie Democrats are all at sea as to

what t h u r course will be. The Cleve-land element has evidently lost hope of succeas in New York state and has little expectation of carrying Connecticut or any of the New England states. The New York Sun (Democratic) admits that even New Jersey is a doubtful state, and that it is not improbable that the Re-publicans may win there.

The talk of carrying certain western slates for the Democrats fails to arouse any entimsiasm here. The Sun per-listently denominates the attempt as "rainbow chasing" and a mere waste of time and money.

Tlie Nt-wspaper Fond a Failure. That the Democrats of the country

take no stock in the proposiiion is shown by tbe failure of the effort of a hundred Democratic newiqiapers to raise a cor-ruption fund for this purpose. I t is now nearly a month since this proposition

WHS put on its feet nnd the country wns m i.-i'iiled to for subscriptions. More than a hundred daily papers have lent their plaintive appeals to the chorus of doniands, but without success. The

' "nilwriptions which come in aro of the ten cent order, and the total amount

1 rrised, aside from the subscription of | the newspaiiers which are "working" this scheme for their own advertiso-

, vient. amount to only about $10 000. Fenutor Plutt II»rd at Work for Harrison.

Senator Piatt has done what every-body who knew him expected. Ho has taken off his coat and gone vigorously ;o work for Republican success. He speaks out frankly. He says that while he did not desire the nomination of Mr. Harrison, he recognizes him as an able, pure and fearless leader, one on whom the party can fully rely. As a Repub-lican Mr. Piatt says he has never had any thought of refusing his wtivo sup-port to the nominee of the Repuohcan party. I'reiildent Harrison's Letter of Accept-

ance. Nothing that has appeared since the

ampaign opened has attracted more afc-ntion than President Harrison's letter

)f acceptance, it has proven a most telling document, and one which it is felt must prove extremely valuable to ;he party. His clear statement of the benefits to manufacturers and working-men already felt under the McKinley law. produces marked effect, while his showing of the growth of our foreign commerce under reciprocity is eqnally convincing. His commendation of Mr. Blaine in the good work he performed while a member of the cabinet, both as to reciprocity and otherwise, is very gratifying to the admirers of that great man. One important service that the letter has performed is to bring to the public attention the dangers which threaten the business public in a return to the Old state banking system, as pro-posed by the Democratic platform. Tlie proposition for a commission toconsider elections and apportionment methods takes away from the Democrats the scarecrow of "force bill," and shows that neither the Republican party nor its leader want anything more than fair treatment for all sections and all citizens.

nhnt He Says About the Situation In tha West and South.

Governor McKinley is confident of Republican success. On a recent visit to Now York he was asked if there is any prospect of Republican losses in the west.

"Oh, not the least." was the answer. •'They aro Republican states and tbey cannot bo carried by the Democrats. I was in Madison. Wis., at a meeting some time ago, and the feeling then was that the Republicans would surely carry the state."

"Is there any danger in Iowa or Ne-braska?"

There is not. The Republicans will win both those states. At the meeting in Lincoln, Neb., where I spoke on Aug. 3. there were at the least calculation 25,-000 people present. They came from Iowa, from Kansas and from Missouri, and there seemed to be the utmost en-thusiasm. The Republicans of Iowa and Nebraska are bound to win this year."

"Do you not think that gome of the southern states are worth looking af ter and that there is a good field for work in them?"

"Yes, 1 do; nnd in West Virginia especially. If the negro question could be eliminated from the campaign the south would soon vote with us on the question of the tariff. I had the honor of making a speech before the soul hern Chautauqua a few years ago. Of course 1 talked on the tariff, and after the speech any number of southerners told mo that they agreed with me."

Here is a free trade item that will in terest the venerable James Moon, who has retired from his farm near Lake-ville and lives in the suburbs of South Bend. On Jan. 19. 1859, in those good old Democratic days when Buchanan was president and there was no "Re-publican robber tariff," Mr. Moon came to South Bend from his Union township farm and bought material for a pair of pants. All wool goods were then so high priced that he bought satinet, a cloth made of cotton warp and woolen filling, which is rarely sold in these day of low priced all wool goods.

Mr. Moon bought 3;<j yards of satinet at 75 cents a yard; 1»^ yards of drilling at 12}^ cents a yard, 14 buttons for 14 cents and a skein of linen thread at 5 cents: total, $3. He then had to pay for having the pants made by a tailor, or get them made at home. Today under a protective tariff, he can buy satinet a t 50 cents a yard and less. He can buy a pair of ready made satinet pants from $1.25 to $2.

The Tribune has not trusted to. Mr Moon's memory for these prices, but taken them right from the merchant's daybook where they were charged at the time he made the purchase.—South Bend (Ind.) Tribune. (Extract from day-book of country store in 1859.)

breathing out threatenings," etc. He lived, as it were, in an atmosphere of threats and slaughter. "Went:" of his own accord; a strong proof of his zeal.

2. "And desired of him letters:" con-sti tuting his transport and his "author-ity and commission." "To Damascus:" the oldest city in tbe world. Situated about 140 miles northeast of Jerusalem.

To the synagogues:" as holding the local authority. "If he found any of this way:" The name "the Way" soon became a distinctive appellation of the . Christian religion.

3. "Ashe journeyed:" The distance from Jerusalem to Damascus would oc-cupy Saul five or six days. "Suddenly (about noon) there shined round alxmt him a light from Heaven:" The light j was "above the brightness cf the 8un.n 0'd Haven Lv

4. "And he fell to the earth:" Prob-ably fmm the animal he rode. Dazzled 1 9. R. A I. Jet by the intense brightness. "And heard a voice saying," in the Hebrew tongue: •Saul, Saul," repeated in emphasis. •Why persecutest thou Me?" Christ

speaks of Himself as persecuted by Saul, I D u r a i l j because "in all the afiliction of Ills peo-; Hoilv" pie He is afflicted."' ' M»ntia<5i i ,

A Fearless Democrat .

That fearless Democrat, Hon. Charles F. Peck, appointed commissioner of la-bor in New York by Mr. Cleveland when the latter was governor, officially reports that the net increase in wages in New York state aloue under the first year of the McKinley law was ^6.377,-925. nnd that the net increase in the products of labor in the slate were £11.-B15.130. "My report shows that there were just 285.000 men in the state whose salaries were raised as a result of this tariff law." says Commissioner Peck. I bis is cheering news for free traders; it comes from good Democratic author-ity too.

• Kig Italnnce in Ouf Favor.

Balance of trade in our favor in the rear just ended. 202.870,477. No wonder that Salisbury and Bismarck admit frankly tRat onr tariff system is better than theirs. No other country in the world can show such a magnificent bal-ince. W ith most of them the balance is on tbe other side of the ledger.

No Danger Sign Needed Here .

This is tbe clause of the national Re-publican platform which is said to fill the souls of Democratic editors and voters with alarm about "the force bill.' Read it carefully:

We demand that every citizen of the United Status shall be allowed to cast one free and unrestricted ballot in all public vlections. and 1 lint such ballot shall be connted nnd re-turned as cast: that such laws shall be enacted and enforced aa will secure to every citizen, be be rich or poor, native or foreign born, while or black, this sovereign right guaranteed by the constitution. The free and honest popular ballot, the Just and equal rep-resentation of all the people, a s well aa their Just and equal protection under the laws, are the fonndation of onr repnblican institutions, and the party will never relent in ita efforts until the integrity of tbe ballot and the purity of elections shall be fully guaranteed and pro-tectee! in every state.

These words should be wholly omitted. "Lord:" He now sees in the despised j Nazarene his Lord and Master. "What! wilt Thou have me to do?" lie is ready to obey, but does not know what is re- ! quired of him "Arise and go into the eity (Damascus), and it shall be told thee," etc.: lie was not prepared for the full revelation of bis duty.

7. "The men with him • • • stood speechiiss:" This at first sight seems at variance with Paul's statement in 20:14, that all f . * • 'he earth. But stood here is not spoken in opposition to fall-ing. but to moving on. "Hearing a voice (the sound), but seeing no man:" We t%rz told by SL Paul himself that they "did not hear his voice."

8. "And when his eyes were opened:" Probably aiter some interval. "Saw no man:" Saw nothing. He waa totally blind.

10. "And (now) there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananiaa:" Of this disciple we have no further men-tion in Holy Writ except in chapter 22:13, where S t Paul describes him as a "devout man according to tbe law."

11. "The street which is called Straight:" In the time when the eventa related in the Acts took place, the main thoroughfare of Damascus was the street called "Straight." "Judas:" Nothing is known concerning this name. "Tarsus:" Tbe capital of Ci-licia, oa the river Cydnus. "For, be-hold, he prayeth:" The fact of Saul's praying seems mentioned by tbe Lord to reassure Ananias.

13. "Ananias answered" to the com-ir nd given in the vision. "Lord, I have heard by many." showing how great was the persecution in which Saul led. "To Thy saints:" It is literally "holy ones." and is applied to things or persons consecrated to the service of God.

The ex-Confederate Demccrats are looking with anxiety to the result of the coming election, which they hope may give them control of the senate again. Senator Benjamin Harrison, in a report submitted to the senate in 1882, showed that tbe Democratic sergeant-at arms of the senate had ex-Confederates as about 10 per cent, of his force, and that the secretary of the senate had over 22 per cent of his force made up of ex-Con-federates and only 14 per cent.

If Mr. Cleveland's soldier substjtuto were running for tbe presidency you could, as a patriot, find several good and sufficient reasons for voting for him, but what reason can you adduce for voting for the man who, in youth and vigor, and. unlike Harrison, did not have the conruge to go to the front? None whatever of course. Mr. Cleve-land never heard a shot tired in auger, bnt he vetoed more old soldier pension bills than any president from Washing-ton down. That is his great war record. He slaughtered veterans by the hun-dred.—New York Recorder.

I have been bothered with catarrh for about twenty years; I had lost sense of smell entirely, and I had almost, lost my hearing. My eyes were getting so dim I had to get some one to thread my needle. Now I have my hearing as well as I ever had, and I can see to thread as fine a needle as ever I did, my sense of smell is partly restored, and it seems to be improving all the time. I think there is nothing like Ely's Cream Balm for catarrh. Mrs E. E. Grimes, Ren drill,
