BtSIOTESS NOTICES. "PERSONAL MENTION. DIARY DANGERS NO OARS TO DAY road visited this oity yesterday by special train. It Is understood that tho purpose of tho visit was to look over tho line preparatory to tho extension of the Central road northwesterly from this oity SATURDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 6, 188S, rrmzrr This Paper lias tlio Largest Clrcnla lion of any Evening Iayeir Piibllslieil In the linitcu Statex. Its value as an Advertising Medium in titvreSoro less bo followed by solicitation of the votes of these men for the candidates of the party that is doing all it can to show that so far as the laborer is concerned the Principle is lame, halt and blind; or, in other words, that Protection doesn't protect.

As the temptation to yield will be strong under the circumstances itispaiuful to reflect that many of thein are likely to fall. They can brace themselves for the ordeal by keeping constantly on hand a banner with the likenesses of Benjamin Harrison and Levi P. Morton inclosed in a scroll bearing the soulful legend 'Protection for the American workingman." This is not so good as steady employment at fair wages, but it is better than nothing. A Fine Demonstration. The organized Republicans of Kings County have no reason to feel ashamed of the display made in their parade last evening.

It was one of the finest demonstrations of the kind ever seen in this city. While in point of numbers it was not up to some of tho Democratic processions which have taken place here, it certainly surpassed anything in the spectacular line attempted by the minority party. What would otherwise have been a splendid compliment to Mr. Blaine on the occasion of his visit four years ago was sadly marred by unfavorable weather. As the Plumed Knight reviewed his followers "the rain descended and the floods came," not in the form of a shower, but of a deluge.

Last night the elements were more propitious, and the marching clubs turned out with full ranks. A brave show they presented, with their flaming torches, flashing lanterns, should bo regarded as "regular." The Gleason faction won, and aocording to promise was entitled to representation in tho councils of tho party. But when the appeal was made for recognition, it was denied. There was no attempt to show that tho Gleason men were unwilling to abide by the terms of tho agreement. They did so, and having carried the day were thrown out as so many traitors.

The fact of bad treatment being then established, it remains to be asked whether tho Gleasouitos are justified in opposing a Democratic candidate at a time when party unity is particularly to be desired It is not that they have any special liking' for the Republican candidate, but because they regard him as being less objectionable than the nominee of the regular Democracy. Perhaps, also, they are animated by a desire to show their precise amount of strength, and to prove, that under no conditions, can the mling powers afford to spit on them in the way they have. The average Queens County politician is more than likely to consider himself justified in using the knife, when ho finds that promises wero made but to bo broken, and if recent reports are not misleading, the Gleason faction is now showing greater strength than it has yet been credited with possessing. What is to be feared is that the National and State candidates will suffer by the trading" which is sure to characterize the action of the rival factions at the polls. It is to be hoped that this will not.

be the case. Mayoralty ucNtion in New York. Tammany, the Eagle said yesterday, would purpose of doing, as one of their nninbor expressly puts it, a woman's work in a womanly way," than that which occupies their attention. Of the praise of the public they are abundantly deserving. But something more than applauso is required to carry to full fruition the excellent plans they have formulated.

It is tho duty, as it should be the pleasure, of right spirited citizens to aid tho Young Women's Christian Association by every available means at thoir command. In no other way can money be contributed to bettor advantage than by promoting this worthy project which is destined to shine like a gem in Brooklyn's coronet of charitable, educational and religious work. Irofrress tlio Canvass So Far, The Democrats have the best of the national argument, this year. They have forced their esteemed opponents from the start. The certainty of tho reuomination of Cleveland raised character to such importance in the canvass that the renouiinatioh of Blaine became impossible.

The course of the President in bringing Tariff reform to the front compelled the Republicans to regard that question and they have changed front on it three times already. They went to Chicago as a party which had promised to reduce the surplus. The promise was as binding on honor as that of the United States to redeem its issues is in law. Tho party left Chicago a repudiator. It renounced its promise and committed itself to the proposition that, a national surplus is a national blessing, that the way to insure prosperity is to tax a people into it and that the condition of sealed energy, accomplished by an enemy's effective blockade, in war, is tho best, one to bo coveted and accomplished for a people by themselves, in peace.

The education of tho people by the Democratic, canvass has progressed so rapidly that the Republican Senate, has been forced to report a Tariff Reduction bill which has several qualities about it: In its Free Tobacco and Free Whisky sections it contradicts tho science and scoffs at the morals of taxation as both have been understood ever since man, by government, proved himself self controlling being, and ever since, by barter, ho revealed himself as a trading animal. Tho measure is likewise a reversal of tho attitude' which the Republican party had always maintained on the subject before its last national convention and the conspicuous denial of the doctrine it laid down at that gathering. The bill suggests that the truthfulness which parties are expected to preserve in their engagements is a thing not to be predicated of Republicanism at all. A more signal confession of tho superiority of tho Democratic position could not be made. The canvasses of the two parties have been as markedly different as their separate policies of action.

There has been no Republican speaking or writing which has not been keyed on the assertion that the Mills bill is a Free Trade measure that England is profoundly interested in its passage, and that the Democracy, a population representing more than the party of opposition, desires to vote itself and the country into poverty, bankruptcy and despair. Every one of these assertions has been recognized to be a self evident absurdity. Examination soon showed the people that the Mills bill is a Protection and Labor befriending measure that the allegation of any English interest in the American election was based on forgeries. The remaining declaration, that a majority of the people were possessed of a wish to pauperize themselves, was such a contradiction of every man's known preference for what is well over what is ill as to serve none but a comic purpose in the discussions. The serious forms of words in which these transparent fallacies have been threshed over have been a study in tins perversity of ignorance which has not been lost on thinkers, philanthropists and humorists.

The Democrats on the whole have conducted a canvass which has been admirable in temper, in ability and for faith in the people. They have had in their favor such every day truths as no other party ever before exclusively enjoyed. It is "everlastingly true," as Horace Greeley used to say, that a nation which raises $100, 000,000 more a year than it spends is to a considerable degree robbing its own people. It follows that the capacity of government to bring expenses down to needs is a test of the ability of men to be trusted with rule. Tho conclusion is enforced that a into Central Dakota.

Hypocrisy and Embarrassments of Per sonal Memorandum Papers Giant Terrors of the World The Yellow Fever Scourge. Rov. Dr. Talmago addressed a big audience last night on several topics of interest. Ho said Two styles of news this week, tho one European and the other American.

Tho publishing of the late Emperor Frederick's diary has caused agitation all over Europe, turned tho royal courts mto whispering galleries and shown that one little old book thero is enough fnol to set a nation on fire. Years ago in that diary Frederick wrote his impressions of men and things. Those leaves ought never to havo seen tho light, but someone has published them, and goes to prison therofor. and Bismarck, who Is usually importurbable, flies into a v.irrp nnri t.hn nvpspnf KmnM nr tells hlB mother. on the supposition that sho had something to do with tho publication, she had better quit her favorite palace.

Two things I have to say about private diaries. They shotild llever bo published and, more than that, they should never be written. Thoy aro either honest or hypocritical. If honest they express opinions and make record of things that should bo forgotten. If they are hypocritical they pretend to be what they are not, ana no lie should be permitted to livo.

It is well enough to keep a memorandum of engagements and whore you go and come. Do not put down personalities that may give trouble after you havo departed this life. A diary is opt to be a legacy of hornets' nests to Burvivors. Let Mayor Chapin put down in a private boolc what he Knows about xi rt land in a private book what he thinks about the public mon of the day.and then let someone twontv years irom now puuusii ineso uooas ami inure win bo hvoly times about the beginning of the next century. Burn your diaries excopt so far as they may be needed to settle the question of dates and the question of whereabouts.

By the time your diary comas under the manipulation of others all tho circumstances may have changed. The conduct of others which at the time you wrote may have seemed strange or nefarious, may have been explained and justilied. JJiuereuccs that ougnt to bo forgotten mav be perpetuated. One old diary has been known to break a will, to separate life long friends and to roll the apple of discord far down tho corrider of the future. We will have all wo can do to meet complacently the record of our lives when wo como to judgment a record that will include all that we over thought, or said, or did during all our Hfof ime.

But alas for ine common nuoii oi putuim iu uiury mm which a man dare not say to the public during his lifetime, and then, after death hiding himsolf behind a barricade of tombstones, to let others fight out the controversies he instigated. But turning to our country, I think tho mo.nt lamentable news of the week is connected with tho continued ravages of pestilential sickness at tho South. Three great diseases havo had an especial grudge against the human race. Their play gronnd has been the graveyard. Thoir banquot ing hall had been tho sepnlchcr.

The Asiatic cholera has been known for centuries, but in 1817 it started from the banks of the Ganges to Bwelter and cramp tho nations all around tho world. It swept off no, 000 peoplo in Upper Hin dostan and ino.OOO in Bombay, prostrated Central Asia, and, following the lino of the rivers, crossed into Russia and down into Central Eu rope, marching on year by year, its path one great field of skulls, until, in 1831, it appeared in England, and, taking ship for our own country, this monstrous sickness landed at Quebec Juno 8, 183:3, and Juno 21 of that year it arrived in New York and all tho cities shivered with the horror and Death had hardly barns large enough to contain his harvests. Medical science has done much to alleviate the power of this great pestilence, but still it is unBlam and every Snmmer stands looking east, west, north and south to see which nation is most unable to resist its ravages. Another giant terror of the world was the plague. It formerly visited England every thirty or forty veara.

In the Fourteenth Century it did its worst. Tho carbunolcd and swollon victims died until one third of the entire population oi perished. The most frightful cry that any city ever heard was the cry: "A plague!" At midnight the dead carts rattled through the city on the way to tho cemeteries, the driver ringing aboil and crying: "Bring out your dead! bring out your dead!" And then, without waiting for a shroud the lifeless started on their last going out of sight under the lantern of the grave has always dono its work of devastation, but done it thoroughly. The Sonthcrn cities of tho United States scorn to havo been marked for its special havoo. It is fifty six years since it struck Now York and sent its population Hying panic.

Not figuratively but literally grass grow in Broadway. One of mv ancestors was a victim of tho scourge. It is an awful mvetery. The things explained in regard to it are few compared with the inexplicable. That it should affect tho Southern cities of the United States and a portion of Africa and bo an entire stranger to China and India, is a fact insoluble The medical profession have tor long years boon constant uiscussiou auout its contagiousness.

Some of the vessels in the British West Indian Squadron have reeled with it, and others.under the very same influences, have floated a I. If .1 i nn.vr. lnT. floats in the air. But that discovery does not help to stop the ailment, for who knows bow to catch and kill the microbe? Slay wo.not.pray forsomo light upon this scientific investigation ot the day? There grows a herb somowhere or sleeijs a mineral or waits in some laboratory a chemical which will defeat this assailment of our national health.

The God who made the human body and all tho plants and all the minerals alone can make the saving revelation. What must be tho condition ot a cttv, all theehildron (lean in tnis nouse, jatneriimi mother dead in that house, all the family dead in another house. Patient and doctor buried on the same day Tho grave diggers' trado triumphs over all other business. Hearse mooting hearse. The voice of one funeral service in ono house meeting the voico of another funeral service in another house, or no service at all.

The body mapped up in silenco and carried away. Passengers on rail trains from tho infected districts shot if they attempt to disembark at certain depots. The newspapers of the past few weeks, like the scroll which the prophet saw, have hcen written within and without with lamentation and mourning and woe. Wore thero no God to comfort and no resurrection to bring up tho dead not as they went down, yellow and wasted and agonized, but radiant and immortal then there were nothing bnt unmitigated calamity for some of tho cities of the South. There are three emotions stirred at this contemplation.

First, an emotion of sympathy. The contributions from all the cities show that in times of sickness there is no North aud no South. In this awful way God teaches us wo are brothers and if wo do not learn it now some other disease will smite the North and tho tide of contributions will change and Southern cities will come to tho rescue of Northern cities. Let our hearts melt, our purses open, onr sectional prejudices perish beyond resurrection. God is in these provinces of sickness siul in other ways gradually bringing the North and tho South back to their old scene, in those days when William rrcston, of South Carolina, thundered on pnesido of the sky and Daniel Webster, of Massachusetts, thundered from tho other sido of tho sky and tho voice of Henry Clay and S.

H. Prentiss, from tlio West, rolled up in reverberation all around tho heavens. 1 hope our Northern and Southern linoilu Hmv rlo tO daV OVCr tllO sick and dying beds of hundreds of yellow fever patients, will not feel so much when then; hands are unclasped like striking each other in vituperation and scorn. The second omotion ib ono of gratitude that we aro at the North untouched. The one case in New York City was just enough to lot us know how easy God could let nn lir i ish if Ho would.

Thanks to our boards of health for thoir caution and vigilance, but if our tiino had come they could not have stopped the pestilence. We havo enough garbage andmalodors in New York and Brooklyn to kill both cities if yellow fever should come. Why are we spared Because we are better than these Southern cities Who would be so infamous as to say that wo are spared ror our municipal virtue If God had dealt with our cities as wc havo deserved we would havo been Sodom and Gomorrah. It does not become us to be too generous in tho distribution of the judgmonts pf God on other people. Why have wo been spared No human precaution could have saved us.

ion may stop mi infected ship at Narrows, but you cannot quarantine a destroying angel, lhank the doctors by all means, but, higher than all and more than all, thank God, who rcdeemeth our lives from destruction. The third emotion is one of admiration for the heroism this fearful sickness has displayed at the South. It is eomparativcly easy to gointobattleamidhuzzanigcomradesand led by inspiriting fifeand trumpet: but it requires great courage to face death in the shapo of contagion. There aro no monuments any of the cemeteries of our cities more worthy than those raised over the physicians who have perished at their posts in time of exterminating sickness. Have vou noticed in the roll of the dead at.

Jacksonville and othor Southern cities the names ot doctors? You look puzzled when we clergymen aro trying to explain to you vicarious suffering. It means dying for others. It means what again and again has in the last few weeks been seen in Southern cities. If there be any sublniior spectacle than a doctor, bloodshot from sleepless watching, pouring out the medicines tor others which he ought to be taking himsolf, with no prospect of compensation, enduring the ltialodors of infected districts, acting at the same time as nnvor. na iwrlnn.

iindi vtaker. as health olhccr, then going home exhaustod and chilly and laint to lie down and die. I say if there is anything sublimer than thatshowit tome. That is medical martyrdom, and the flames which Hashed up from Smithfield and Brussels market place could add to it no luster. What do you think of that telegraph operator standing at his post while all the town were dead, or making ready to lly.

calmly sending off messages of imploration and getting back messages of sympathetic relict? Within the past month how many newly discovered heroes and heroines. A little girl that watches her fathor down with tho fever until ho dies, and with a mother until she dies, and then dies herself from the exhaustion I do not care what you call her, I call her a martyr oueen. The fourth emotion is one of appreciation of the fact that our life and health arc completely in tho hands of God. If you ascribe it all to human precaution that New. JorK aim Brooklyn havo been spared, you are an nigra to.

It is right at such times that we observe all sanitary regulations, and be careful that from onr no garbage is thrown into the street, and that our rooniB arc kept well ventilated, and we adhere to a Christian diet; but let niter all iecl. our dependence on God who gives health and takes it away and let tho ntoi ol self an orifice teach us that life is grand only in proportion as it is of service to others. I scout much that is said in magnification of longevity. Sixty, seventy or eighty years of earthly existence are disgusting if they make no mark on the world. lhc faithful waiting maid, who lay down to die he side her mistress, will have higher reward in heaven.

If a life is useless, the shorter the better. Death is in such a case onlv the abatement of a nuisance. Every breath tho idler draws is an assault and battery on the whole of God nin verse. And now may God nut an end to this Southern pestilence and rekindle the lights which havo gone out in many afflicted households and give resurrection anticipation to all who have been to the grave to weep there, and when the trumpet of the archangel shall fetch up. tho great armies of those who fell under the Asiatic cholera and the plague and the yellow fever, may it be found that we did all wo could in the way ol practical alleviation.

it We Have Ileal Mot Wcatticr Tjy tt. It in Chicago's Street Railroad Strike in Operation. North Division Residents Experience the Delights of a Tie Up Extemporized Conveyances Crowded With Passengers. CnioAoo, October o. The.strike of streot car conductors, drivers and cablo grip men on tho North Side was inangu ratod according to programme Jit 0 o'clock this morning.

Not a car is running in the entire north division. The sidewalks have been filled with pedestrians headed for the business portion of tho oity sinco an early hour this morning. Express wagons and rattletraps of all descriptions, on which temporary Beats have been fixed, are being run by the strikers and others and are patronized to their fullest capacity. At 5 o'clock A. M.

the car men began to gather at the North Side barns to watch the eventa of tho coming day, then just dawning. There was no unusual stir at any of the plaoos. At tho Limits bams it was unusually quiet. The cablo was not started. The early risers took the strike good natnredly and walked down town.

Many conveyances were brought into use and were well patronized. At tho Larrabeo stroot barns, tho men appeared in largo numbers at an early hour, but no attempt was made to take out cars. Large squads of city police and private detectives were on hand, but their services were not required. Around tho Cly bourno avenue barn wero congregated many of tho strikers, but no cars wore taken oat and the mon said tho strike was a go. Tho polioe were in attendance awaiting the Iday's events.

At Lincoln avenue a few old employes made their ap pearanoo. The night cars came in from their trips and the men went away quietly. A few officers of a private detective agency were on hand, but they found no work to do. The first installment of President Ycrkes' imported Philadelphia cablo carmen arrived at 9 :20 last night via tho Pittsburg and Fort Wayne road. There were about twenty five in the party and they wore conducted by a gentleman connected with the Philadelphia road who took them to the Bartholdi Hotel.

It was understood from thiB party that 125 more mop would arrive this morning from Philadelphia and Pittsburg. We wore not asked to sign any contract," said ono. "They took most of us right from the cars and put 'extra 'men in our places. Everyman thero would have como willingly if there had been enough Our way was paid and it promised to be a pleasant change." As noarly as could bo ascertained not many of tho men are Knights of Labor. One of tho men stated to a reporter that they aro to receno $2.75 a day for twelvo hours' work and tho company is to pay their board.

TARIFF BILLS, VETOES AND TRUSTS. Jiulire Thin man Entertainingly Talks on Three Tonics of Importance. PrrrsBuno, Ootebor 6. The Dispatch publishes the following interview with Judge Thurman: The Dispatch representative boarded Judge Thurman's car at Washington, and during the journey to Pittsburg hold a pleasant chat with the Old Roman. Just as he left Washington Judge Thurman said: "I am sorry I could not seo this town by daylight.

In my earlier days I often passed through Washington on stago ooaches. It was a pretty town then, and I snppose it has improved very much in the lapse of years." "What do you think of the Senate Tariff bill It is a badly planned measure and only aggravates tho evil. I notice they copy after the Mills bill very largoly. I haven't road it in its entirety, but I know enough about it to say that it is not nearly as good a uioaBiiro aH tho Mills bill. It is nothing more than a bid for votes.

They keep up the Tariff on manufactured articles to capture the vote of the manufacturer, and likewise tho duty is preserved on raw materials to please the farmers. It is a badly mixod affair, I saw somewhere that General Harrison said either in his letter or in one of his speeches, I am not sure which, that there was no necessity to bother about the surplus; but I see the Republican Senators differ with him. They claim that their bill will reduco this surplus about $75,000,000. Yon seo they are not consistent. Why should the poor man pay a heavy tax on his clothing, his blankets and what ho eats There is no sense in so much taxation.

The prineiplo is wrong, and then to de ceive tho peoplo they state that the duty is levied at so much per square yard and so much ad valorem. How many people are thero who under stand that "What do you think of Mr. Blaine's statement made at Detroit about President Cleveland's use of the veto power?" Well, I don't think anything about it. I havo heard what Mr.Blaine asserted.of course, but what does he mean? Mr. Cleveland has signed more pen sion bills than any other President over in office, and what if he has vetoed two hundred or three hundred or whatever Mr.

Blaine said? Granted that ho has signed more in proportion than all tho other Presidents together, I haven't counted up the number vetoed or signed and I don't care a straw about it; but why didn't tho Senate pass those bills over his veto if they wanted thorn to pass? They had the power to do it, and yet thov did nothing at all. The law requires tnat tno Sonate shall consider all such bills and if they don't do it who is to blamo?" Sneaking of trusts Mr. Thurman said: "Mr Blaine says that trusts are private affairs, and nfiithei the President nor the people has anything to do with them, but John Sherman docsnt think so. He introduced a bill in tho Senate to have them Huppressed. In England the common law would wipe them out.

Here they have grown up through tho avariciousness of man and the Protection policy does much to foster them. I do not Bay that they are the direct outgrowth of the system of Protection, but the plan of levying excessive duties has helped them. Trusts are made or the purpose of putting up prices. They havo become grinding monopolies and tho laws of the land should bo cnforc sil against thorn." FRANCE AND HER FOREIGN NEIGHBORS. lrnhallG Effect of Camot's Becrcc Kesriiliuiiis Immigration.

Copyright, 1888.1 Lonpok, October '0. Thi defiant attitudo of France toward Italy is, perhaps, natural, considering circumstances that do not need recapitulation; nut wnetner tuo republic can afford the luxury of snubbing hor southern neighbor on overy possible pretoxt is very doubtful. The French despiBe the Italians from a military point of view, as it might bo said they look contemptuously on all other peoples from other points of view, without, however, nav incr convinced the world of their general pre emi nence: but the galling fact remains that the French wrath has to be tempered with a great deal of respect for the more formidable Italian allies. It is cuiite probable that the endeavors now be ing mado to nogotiato a new commercial treaty between the two countries will bo defeated on account of the childish temper constantly ex hibited by France and trado remain in its pres ent unsatisfactory state, to tho detnmout ot both nations. Several Italian Chambers of Commerce havo taken the initiative in the matter of renewing tho troatv Iherotoforo existing, but thoir advances have" been without offect as yet.

Pi CBident Carnot's decroe regulating immigra tion has been received by the majority with niany congratulations as tending to check the lnffux of Germans, who, as Belgians, Swiss and iusaiians, are far more numerous in the land of their mortal enemies than tho latter dream of, but if enforced to tho letter it will affect in a far greater degree tho Italians, who fairly swarm in the south of France and have in a groat measure replaced native laborers, especially in the cities. Not one in a hundred of Italian workmen can attain to a permanent residence in the country except by evading the requirements of tho law. They cannot change their abode without renewing thoir declaration of identity and giving proof of their ability to obtain regular and remunerative labor, the mayor of the new cota muno being in all cases the deciding authority. Tho Count de Vegrathe, Italian Ambassador at Vienna, denies tho uttering of tho remark attributed to him that a war is imminent, tho rc Bnlt of which, though Italy would be beaten, would bo the gain to that country of Savoy and Nice. Signor Crisp! looks longingly on the two provinces, but he will await the decision to bo arrived at during tho coming visit of the German monarch to Rome.

Exasperated France sees enemies all around her. She is sure that Belgium is gravitating toward Germany, Xfi Temps discovers the vilest insinuations against France in Signor Crispi's letter to tho Porte and for a novelty tho country appoars to have a real grievance in tho meddling air with which Italy inquires into her policy in Tunis. Tho Boy is considered as under French protection, though it is difficult to seo what business either of the two nations htia in tho country and thero is no denying that the situation is threatening.

Jt AST TWO BAYS TO RKSISTER. Tuesday October Tuesday October 23 Tlie Meeting. The Eagle hopes that ull its Democratic find Republican readers will peruse the full report of last night's Academy meeting. No Democrat should omit to see what the ease of his party is. No Republican should fail to examine what his opponents advance as the basis of their claim to continue in charge of the government of the country.

The addresses wore, models of statement and were marked by a high order of intelligence. The Eagle expressed the hope that Mayor Chapin would feci justified in speaking at length. He did so in one of the most intellectual, ingenious and admirably poised addresses of this or any other canvass in recent years. An ovation of cheers greeted his appearance. The tribute of attention and applause which his remarks received attested the earnestness, respect and cultivation of the audience.

The stately periods of the Secretary of the Interior comported with his reputation as an orator. He spoko of the President with the authority of one who shares with him the burdens of public trust, and his union of political philosophy with practical statement of facts was calculated to do a great deal of good. Representative Breckinridge exceeded even the reputation for force of matter and for felicity of manner which he had in the opinion of Brooklyn Democrats. He shares with Gladstone the rare gift of "making statistics eloquent." He rendered the ordinarily dry subject of the Tariff vital with interest, and his mingled colloquialism, humor, pathos and fancy, in the forms of statement that rolled so easily and eloquently from his lips, made him who is the idol of Kentucky the admiration of Brooklyn. The quality of the speeches is such as to cause them to read as well as they sounded.

They are as interesting as they are instructive, and they will convince those who candidly peruse them a3 completely as they charmed those who heard them. It is especially gratifying to the Eagle that Brooklyn's contribution to the symposium of thought, in the speech of the Mayor, easily equaled that which the other eminent gentlemen from other quarters made. The Campaign Committee of the local Demoornoy are entitled to the thanks of the people for the splendid galaxy of orators who have so far been heard and who are yet to be heard, for the expectation is that Governor Hill and Speaker Carlisle will address our people, bo fore this magnificent campaign of reason and patriotism is over. A Noble Work. Among the organizations, religious and otherwise, for which Brooklyn is justly famous, none has met with more gratifying progress than the Young Women's Christian Association.

When the society was formed, less than a year ago, it seemed that the avenues of corresponding endeavor were fully occupied. In every section of this great and growing city institutions dedicated to the promotion of morality, education and the refining and ennobling influences of Christianity flourished in seeming profusion. Yet the record of the association, recently outlined in our columns, shows that it has not onlv established itself firmly among the mul titudinous sister societies, but that it has entered upon a career of vast and constantly enlarging usefulness. If tho ratio of growth already achieved is steadily maintained the organization promises to outstrip its older rivals in the field of good works. Already it has surpassed the most confident expectations of its founders.

They are beginning to reap the harvest from the generous seed they have sown almost before they are ready to garner the sheaves. So great is the volume of encouragement vouchsafed that they are contemplating a considerable widening of the scope of their exertions. Experience demonstrates that in whatever enterprises they undertake in the near future they will not lack assistance and co operation from the great body of our citizens who have watched their endeavors with respect, approval and admira What contributed quite as much to the success of the undertaking as anything else was the simplicity and comprehensiveness of tho plans adopted at the outset. Its projectors began operations not in any vain search after the unattainable, but in an earnest and well considered attempt to cultivate an inviting and familiar territory. The association, in its aims, methods and aspirations, has from the beginning been essentially practical.

To the credit of its promoters it must be conceded that they have permitted no side issues, no impracticable suggestions, no visionary schemes to divert them from the main purpose. Instead of imitating the ambitious bodies which from time to time venture, forth to reform the universe they have taken warning from the mistakes of others and derived counsel and substantial benefit from the lessons of the past. The earnest and intelligent women in charge of the movement have gone forward not ostentatiously, or in a boastful spirit, but modestly, unswervingly, perseveringly and effica ciously. In the company, small at first but now grown to the dimensions of a fair sized regiment, omplete harmony has prevailed. There has been a perfect community of interest, an absolute unity of co operative effort.

To the society the laggard has been as much flip disturber would be in a body of this beneficent character. From the. conditions presented but one re suit could follow. Having deserved success the association has achieved it. As the man auers enter upon the second season of their first year's work they find themselves confronted hv a clean balance sheet, a clear road and a volume of heartfelt encouragement that cannot fail to trive impetus to their onward progress.

It was shown the other evening at the reception in the Johnston Building, where the association makes its headquarters, that the handful gathered at the inauguration of the work has expanded into a mem. bership of COO, distributed in the active, ncsnnintp. snstiiininr? and life grades. The rooms are furnished and attractively oriia montf.n Hli iiictnves. Manv volumes Have been added to the library, which is now well stocked with books for free distribution.

In the various plans of instruction adopted by the society agreeable results are miner niimlislii d. Notable progress is dismayed by the classes in dressmaking, French. German, penmanship and music. To supplement these excellent departments it has been determined to introduce classes in calis thenics, cooking and physiology. Among the other features of the association are a veliabl boarding house directory and an employment lmvi'nu.

The bureau lias been or value to the members and beneficiaries of the society From it are furnished teachers, governesses. artists, typewriters, copyists, eWfcs, eompan ions, housekeepers, nurses, dressmakers seimistrosses and other trained and skilled assistants. Out of 237 applicants since last February 85 have obtained employment. It is proposed to enlarge the facilities at the as sociation rooms bv adding a restaurant and introducing other pleasant features. Toward the increase of accommodations the managers are progressing with conservatism and steadi ness, which indicate a thorough understanding of their projects and their resources.

Upon the outcome of the enterprise those engaged in it are entitled to the sincere congratulation of the community. It would be Impossible for the promoters of the association to find a sphere better adapted to their gleaming helmets and gallantly waving Illumes. It was evident, from the enthusiasm they displayed, that the ardor of the contest is by no means confined to one side. The Republicans are full of fight. If it is within the boundaries of.

human possibility for them to win they menn to do it. They are con ducting their campaign with vigor, intelli gence and downright earnestness. While the efficacy of torchlight parades as a means of influencing public opinion may well be ques tioned, it cannot be dome'd that the party men have not failed to improve their opportunity of impressing their Democratic, and Independent neighbors. As long as the custom of campaign marching is recognized as an indispensable adjunct of political contention there is no likelihood that it will be abandoned by either party. Failure to turn out" would be construed as a confession of weakness that neither party would bo found guilty of.

The procession of the Republican clubs here was highly creditable to all concerned. It was especially creditable to Jones. In view of the admirable generalship he displayed the Republican politicians ought to cease their criticisms of his management. No more imposing figure than that of Jones, as he flashed post the reviewing stand in full major general's uniform, has ever been seen on tho thoroughfares of this town. As a matter of frozen fact Jones, as grand marshal, is the right man in the right place.

His censors in the Grand Old Party perpetrate a glaring injustice in their condemnation of his methods. That he possesses the confi dence of his men is plain from their ready response to his orders. Alter last nignua triumph, Jones, as tho autumnal breezes merrily whistle through his silver whiskers, can afford to bite bis thumb in derision at his enemies. So long as his peripatetic legions and the Eagle appreciate him at his true worth, he need fear nothing trom the intrigues of a few envious gentlemen at headquarters. The Brooklyn citizen who lacked a year of 100 when he died was coincident with a very wide page of history.

He remembered see ingLafayette, and since his eyes fell upon that excellent Frenchman he must, if he kept them wide open, have observed matters of constant and profound interest in the pro digious advance of affairs in the JNew World especially but also in the Old. Political and material progress, the triumphs of invention, the evolution of science, philosophy and religion, make up a sum of growth which would have been altogether incredible if predicted when Maurice McCarty was a boy. The Brooklyn Rio de Janeiro line of steam ers has brought to this country anew company of Paris players. They are quite sure of a good deal of attention apart from the reputation of their leaders, Mine. Hading and M.

Coquelin. In the first place, the number of persons here who understand French is increasing. In the next place, the number of those who do not care to have it understood that they do not understand it is also growing. In the third place, the number of those who positively enjoy and comparatively criticize art, even when the speoch is unfamiliar, constantly multiplies. Inasmuch as shrewd tradesmen or at least those whose shrewdness might be presumed continue to allow themselves to bo defrauded by the check scheme and other familiar and slender devices, it is perhaps not surprising that some householders have been imposed upon by designing persons who offer in tho name of the United States to furnish boxes to receive mail matter at their homes.

Yet a little reflection might suggest that the Federal t. would Bcarcelv trv to sell tor a "cheap concern worth about a dime," or that if the effort were really made tho Federal Government ought to be defeatecVin the scheme Rnd exposed. "Any Republican can carry Michigan," scornfully exclaimed Roscoe Conkling in the Republican National Convention of 1880. Either Mr. Conkling was mistaken or conditions in the Wolverine Commonwealth havo changed since his assertion was made.

Mr, Blaine's vehement appeals for Harrison in the State show that in his estimation and that of Chairman Quay Michigan is on the doubtful list. The fires of Tariff Reform are burning all over the peninsula so brightly that Gen eral Alger and his followers are manifestly panic stricken. Michigan is evidently on the high road to the Democratic fold. The Presidential canvass is being conducted with so much decorum in this State and our tempers are so unruffled that it is hard for us to realize the fact that pivotal Indiana there is raging a political storm of the most furious character. One of the principal causes of it is the hostility of the laboring men to the Republican candidate.

That hostility is largely due to the statement that at the time of the great railroad strike on the Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati and Indianapolis line in July, 1877, General Harrison declared that "$1 a day was enough wages for any working man." The editor of tho Indianapolis Jour nal, in language that did not conceal his in tense emotion, pronounced the story a lie and offered through tho editorial columns of his paper the sum of $2,000 to anybody who would prove that General Harrison ever said this or anything like it. Thereupon the Knights of Labor promptly produced a budget of affidavits, of which the following is a sam ple State of Indiana, Mahton County, ss. John Schwartz, being duly sworn, testifies under oath that he was employed by th3 Cleveland, Colum bus. Cincinnati and Indianapolis Railway in July. i is.77! that he wont on a strike on the day that the strike took place, on or about July 19, 18 for an increase in wages; that ho was present at the eonforencc meeting in the old Council Cham ber, held during the period that said Btrike lasted, where Benjamin Harrison, Albert' G.

Porter and other prominent citizens spoke with reference to thCBtrike; that ho heard Benjamin Harrison say that they (the strikers) wore law breakers, and as such were not entitled to any sympathy whatever from the public: that tho said Benjamin Harri son (now a Presidential candidate) further said that the men ought to return to their work, that the railroads could not afford to pay high wages that the wages were enough, and that 1 per day was enough for any workingman, that he himself could livo on (hat amount, and that lionjainin Harrison further said that it the men did not return to work tho militia should bo brought into service and the men forced to return to work. Signed) Jons G. Sr.mv.utTZ Subscribed and sworn to before mo this day of September, 1888. Jons T. Faxsinci, Notary Public We believe there were twelve or fifteen de ponents who under oath certified that they heard General Harrison use the language above attributed to him.

Several weeks after ward the General entered into an explanation of the course pursued by him at the time of the strike, but his explanation did not traverse the statements made in these nffi. davits. The Journal has withdrawn the offer of $2,000, although it still continues to call the affiants lies, and altogether it is one of the most harrowing messes the politicians of the Hoosier State ever got into. either make a spoon or spoil a horn, last night. It does not seem to have made a spoon.

The nomination of Sheriff Hugh J. Grant for Mayor is an ordinary political act, whereas an extraordinary one was called for. The fact increases tho probability that Mayor Hewitt, whom the Citizens have nominated and whom the County Democracy are expected to indorse to day, will bo his own successor. The Republicans, according to tho Tribune, will nominate Mr. John H.

Stariu. When Mr. Stariu is spoken of for Governor, he lives in Fultonville. When he is spoken of for Mayor, he. lives in New York.

He is a driving business man of large wealth. His nomination would tide the Republican "boys" over a hard and nearing Winter, but it would not be calculated to arrest the drift or stampede of Republican voters to Mr. Hewitt. The latter is pugnacious, original, ingenious and outspoken. Ho has offended the politicians and pleased the people.

The County Democracy have been shrewd in catching on to his boom." Sheriff Grant has made a good officer, but the Mayoralty is one of those places which Now York, when it gets into a spasm of virtue, prefers not to elect a smooth machinist to fill, and smooth machinist expresses just what he is. Tammany is better and stronger now than the Counties by themselves considered but Tammany with Grant is, wo think, weaker than the Counties j)lus Hewitt and the Citizens' movement. Just what morning papers will support Grant is problematical. The Sun, 2'imes and Herald will likely be for Hewitt. The Press and Tribune will "whoop up" Starin.

The World, which started the Hewitt movement two years ago, is against the Mayor now, but, if it is wise, it will not invite that test of its influence which a thick and thin advocacy of Grant would involve. If Grant should have the support of no newspaper for tho party committees will see that the Star twinkles only for the State and national tickets and happen to bo elected, the power of tho press would be signally exemplified. It looks as if Mayor Hewitt would have more votes than any other man, possibly more than all the others put together, if New York gets mad at tho politicians, as New York sometimes does, and becomes not only the friend but the bully of independence. What of the effect on the State and national tickets The effect will be of one kind in the New York newspapers and of another kind on tho voting in New York, and of another kind on the voting in the country. The New York newspapers will declare that a very fnll vote will be brought out, which will be true, and that no one need fear the fealty of all the city organizations to the State and national tickets, which will be untrue.

There will be trading of County votes for Warner Miller, if Hewitt can thereby be elected. There will be trading of Tammany votes for Harrison, if Grant can thereby be elected. There will also be trading of Republican machine votes both for Cleveland and Hill, if Starin can thereby be elected. All these facts will be strenuously denied, and the denial will be a part of the game itself. The insured triple treachery is thus likely to neutralize itself.

Beside, the number of votes that can be traded off in New York City is always less than is claimed by the traders, or apprehended by the honest citizens. A scramble in New York City always brings out an immense poll on both sides in the country. The rural Republicans come out en masse, feeling that divisions the metrop oplis will give the party a chance in the State. The rural Democrats, from the same cause, come out in lartre numoers 'to save mo 1 (( A State." The Eagle recrets there is not to be a union Democratic ticket in New York City, but if overy one who intends to vote sees to it that he votes according to his own comic tions. Jit's ballot will not be "traded off," in any event, and the ballots that can be "traded off would probably be bought or sold in some other way, even if the party in the metropolis were not divided.

Perils of tlio Unemployed. It is more than probable that the nine or ten hundred workiugmen who find themselves out of employment owing to the closing of DeCaslro Donner's refineries by order of the Sugar Trust will accept the assurance that a High Tariff protects the woge earner, without that enthusiasm which such an assur ance is calculated usually to excite. The practical problems which confront a man who has a family to support and no means to sup port them are so apt to engage his attention that ho really has no time to indulge in en thusiastic demonstrations. That doubtless is the ease with the majority of DeCastro Donner's late employes. They can't help it if they don't feel like making very heavy drafts on their vitality to promote even so inspiring a cause as that of Protection." Of course this indifference is utterly wrong.

A wage earner ought to shout for the G. O. P. quite as lustily when he has nothing to chew but the cud of bitter fancy as ho does when he is L'ettins rich on the rewards of protected industry. The fact that a combine of capitalists closes the manufactory where he is at work, in order to increase the price of his product by limiting the supply, is not a fact which diminishes the virtue of the beatific Principle for which it is his duty at all times to cheer.

Devotion to a principle is just as obligatory when a man is starving as when he is dining. If this were not so exist ence would be reduced to a condition of the grossest materialism. But a man without work and without any immediate hope of getting it turns away coldly from this elevated reasoning and may even be tempted to ex claim "Guff 1" Wo make these observations in order to anticipate the nefarious work of those unscrupulous agents of Free Trade who will take advantage of the situation in which tho discharged employes of De Castro Donner are placed to poison their minds against the sublime Principle that ought to sustain them in their misfortune. There are plenty of men in Brooklyn who nre just mean enongh and just, malicious enough to do They will tell these unfortunates that the Principle very plainly doesn't work in thoir case. That instead of protecting the laboring man it protects the employer.

That if it wasn't for the Principle the refineries would be running still, because any attempt thus to limit the supply would afford opportunity for outside competitors. That the cmployerlerives all tho benefit, since he not only escapes tho expense tho wages of his operatives, but derives an enormous profit from the artificial rise in tho market. That the Principle is of no use to the workingman, because there is a string attached to it by which tho monopolist can take it in out of the wot when it rain. That, as matter of fact, sublime and beautiful Principle is a fraud, and that the best proof of it is that the Eastern District refinery hands are out of work and out of pocket, while the Trust that put them out is gathering shekels by the million. Suggestions such as tho above will doubt.

The people cannot help nrrreeintr to these facts. Their necessitated acceptance reduced the issue to a consideration of methods only. Up to this week the Dem ocrats had the advantage ot being the solo party with any method whatever. They havo enioved that advantage for all this year. In the form of the Mills bill they have made every household in the land ramiliar with their method.

Republican attack on it, with out an alternative proposition, has been a feat of folly never before, we believe, pursued by any party in any country. The Republicans have seen their error, but have railed to cure it, in two ways Their Senate bill is neither effective nor offered in good faith, being, as the esteemed Tribune with tatal rrauKness antecedently described it, "a bill for Bun combe only." Aside from that, the measure, were it sincere and effective, has been brought in too late to receive public attention. In less than four weeks of working days will be the election. No time remains which the Republican' can undo their own result of fas tening the Mills bill on the popular mmcl, to say nothing of the work of the Democrats in doing the same thing. Incidentally other matters have as distinctly helped the Democrats.

The excellence of the Administration has been a tower of strength to them. The President has turned the tables on the opposition in the Fisheries and the Chinese questions. The business argument against a change was never stronger in the case of any administration. The likely re sult of the election is capable of being tore cast from the fact that business nowhere ex pects there will be any change. The South ern question" has utterly failed to material ize.

More colored people have lUciarca ror Cleveland than have declared for Harrison. No orator who has waved the bloody 9hirt has escaped the suspicion of fiendishn'ess or insanity. The matter of Trusts has so disastrously affected the Republicans that, if that party is defeated, members of it will not be wanting to believe that the Democrats bought Blaine to defend them. The Democrats have wasted no powder. They let Maine alone, and still the result showed a Democratic gain 300 per cent, larger than the Republican gain, with the Plumed Knight in command.

They paid much especial attention to the effort to make Blaineism identical with Republicanism as the 'Tribune says it is and now Mr. Blaine's party wishes that Mr. Blaine's body was in Europe again. The Democratic campaign has been an appeal to reason. The Republican recourse has been "a scare." In the long run, roaring wins not more than reason in America.

There has been equal energy on both sides. On the Democratic side it has been limited to legitimate work. The purchase or establishment of quasi Irish and quasi Labor decoys, the circulation of decoy sheets and the dissemination of forgeries have been a Republi can industry. The stiff partisans on either side live in numbers nearly equal. That al ways makes the prospect of an apparently close result; but those ballots, wnicn cannot fm etnld before they are oast, seem to be for Cleveland and not for Harrison, this year Certainly, there is every reason in the nature of the issues and in tho diftcring character ot the two canvasses to believe that they are mid the Democrats need only to maintain the ratio of increase, already shown by tho State contests, since the nominations were made, to carry the national poll by a large majority Factional Disturbances in Queens County, What is known as the Gleason faction in Long Island City politics has decided to give its support to Theron H.

Burden, the Kepub. liean candidate for Sheriff, while remaining true to the Democratic National and State candidates. A revolt of this kind has been loner threatened, and it can hardly be regard ed as surprising in view of the treatment to which Mr. Gleason and his followers were subjected at the hands of the regular Democratic organization.
