Every voter ought to remember that a
vote for Blaine is a vote to perpetuate the
spoils system.
A house fly touched by the frost presents
a pretty good idea of the present condi
tion of the Butler boom.
The Hartford Courant celebrated its
120tb anniversary a few clays ago. It be
gun publication Oct. 29,1704.
It ha 6 been deemed necessary for the
plumed knight to go to Boston, Monday,
and give the “political nermophrodites”
of Massachusetts a shaking up.
The Wall street magnates want Blaine
elected, and why? Because he is in sym
pathy with all their schemes to increase
their millions at the expense of honest
labor.
Joe Mulhatton, the drummers’ Presi
dential candidate, has not even enlivened
the campaign with some of his unrivaled
fiction. Have Biaine’s prevarications
paralyzed him?
Blaine’s election means a still further
lowering of the national standard of in
tegrity and morality. It is not easy to
estimate the damage which the election
of Blaine would do the country.
In many localities in the West pension
ers are told by Blaine orators that they
will lose their pensions unless they vote
for Blaine. Is it possible that there are
pensioners who listen to such idiotic stuff
with patience?
Money is what the Republican mana
gers want now. The talking time is
about over, and the voters that can’t be
reached in any other way must be reached
by cash. The poor clerks will have to
make further contributions.
*T doubt if we carry New Jersey,’’ said
Senator John Sherman a few days ago to
a reporter. “It will be next to a political
miracle if we do.” If Sherman is in
doubt about New Jersey there is no occa
sion for Democrats to be uneasy about it.
If Blaine is elected the offices will be
distributed among men of the Elkins,
Clayton, Keiter and Robeson type. Are
they the kind ol men that the people want
to administer the principal offices of the
government?
Out of the five State Senators present on
Thursday at the State Fair lour of them
are candidates for the Presidency of the
Seuete. The one who was not, Senator
Ride-ley, was the only voting material to
be w rked upon. He had all the fun to
himself.
If Blaine had not voted against the
Thurman bill, which aimed to compel the
Union Pacific and other Pacific roads to
deal honestly with the government, would
Gould have accepted an invitation to the
Blaine Delmonico dinner? The question
is not a hard one to answer.
It is among the possibilities that Blaine
may be amazed on Nov. 4 at the number
of Northern States in league with the
solid South to “seize the government.”
It is claimed that there are over 15,000
Republicans in Illinois who have declared
their intention not to vote for the plumed
knight.
Cleveland could hardly have vetoed the
5-cent fare bill about which so much has
been said because he favors monopolists.
The men whom the veto Is supposed to
have benefited were the shining lights at
Blaine’s Delmonico dinner. They don’t
hang around Cleveland when he visits
New York.
The greatest political procession ever
seen in this country will be seen, in all
probability, in New York city to-night.
An extraordinary effort is to be made to
put 100,00# voters in line. Gen. McClel
lan will be chief of staff, and will be as
sisted by 100 aides. Fireworks to the
amount of $35,000 will add interest to the
occasion. It will be the last great dem
onstration by either party of the campaign*
What a very innocent old man Cyrus
W. Field is! “We tried to keep this quiet,
but in some wav it got out,” is what he
remarked about the Blaine dinuer. In
view of the fact that the entire corres
pondence with regard to it was sent to
the Associated Press by the managers of
it, Mr. Fields’ remark about keeping it
quiet indicates that the old millionaire is
becoming evasive in his latter days.
A writer in the Philadelphia Press says
that “it would be a pity it Jones was dis
placed as United States Senator from Ne
vada. Jones is singular, a little reckless
of his word, and not always ready to pay
his debts, but when he had money no
prince was ever more liberal and reck
less.” If the Press writer’s object is to
destroy Jones’ prospects for reflection he
could not have adopted a better way than
he has.
It is amusing to see how much apparent
satisfaction the Blaine organs get out of
the announcement of someone of the
prominent members of their own party
that he is going to vote for Blaine. Presi
dent Porter, of Yale College, who has
been a Republican all his life, has stated
publicly that he intends to vote lor
Blaine, and the Blaine organs appear to
be as nappy as if they had won a great
political victory.
A Hawkinsville merchant a few days
since stated to a representative of the
Morning News that Savannah would
get but a small portion of that city’s cot
ton this year. He said that while every
body was friendly and wanted to trade
with Savannah, the low freight (Go cents
per 100) on cotton to Norfolk was
sending the most of it to that city-
He thinks Savannah should have a
railroad from Hawkinsville to Millen, or
some other station on the Central Rail
road. Such a road, with the proposed
road from Americus to Hawkinsville,
would give a short line to the Southwest,
and also open up a good section of Georgia.
The people of Bloomfield, la., are hav
ing trouble about the practice which pre
vails there of reading the Bible in the
public schools. One man brought a suit
to enjoin the teacher of the school his
children attended from reading the Bible
in that school. He based his application
on the ground that the constitution of
lowa reads: “No person shall be com
pelled to attend any place of worship, or
pay taxes for the building or repairing
places of worship.” The injunction was
refused, and the Supreme Court of the
State sustained the lower court. The
gentleman has no recourse but to remove
his children trom school. He is not com
pelled by law to send his children to
school, as education is not compulsory in
lowa. He pays school tax, perhaps, but
the school fund is not used lor the build
ing or repairing of places of worship. The
decision of the court was no doubt based
on good sense and sound law. The ques
tion of reading the Bible in the public
schools, however, is very slowly but very
purely coming into prominence.
Not the Only Issue.
It is true that the tariff is a great issue
in this campaign, but it is not the only
issue, as Blaine seems to think. There
are others that are attracting a large
share of public attention. One of them is
civil service reform and the other is per
sonal fitness.
Those who know Blaine best do not be
lieve that he has any respect for any re
form that looks to an improvement in the
civil service. The present civil service
law, which was proposed by a dis
tinguished Democratic Senator, received
no encouragement from Blaine when it
was before Congress. Indeed, the under
standing is that he spoke of it on all oc
casions with contempt, and lost no oppor
tunity to ridicule it.
Blaine is the prince of spoilsmen. The
element of his party that nominated him
believes in the spoils system. If Blaine
is elected the offices will be parceled out
among his henchmen and their friends.
There will be Inaugurated a period of plun
der that will exceed anything known in
the history of the Republican party.
Even now, the Republicans act and talk
as if they owned the government, and if
the people continue them in power after
the exposure of the corrupt character of
their leader they will feel at liberty to do
pretty much as they please. Up to this
time they have made a show of honesty
by attempting to conceal their crooked
doings, but if they are indorsed now, af
ter their corrupt record has been made
known to every voter in the country, they
will proceed, in all probability, openly
and boldly In their plundering schemes.
They will act on the idea that dishonesty
in the management of the government Is
approved by the people, and that honesty
is at a discount. They will plan to retain
power by corrupting the source of power.
Blaine hasn’t had a word to say about
the attacks on his character, and his sup
porters have also avoided that issue. Of
course he could not, personally, very well
deal with that subject, but his orators
and organs could have discussed it with
propriety. It is probable that they would
not have been so generally silent If the
facts had not been so strongly against
them. A few ministers may indorse
Blaine, and may proclaim from their pul
pits their belief in his purity, but they
will never be able to make the great mass
of the people believe that Blaine was not
a corrupt man while in Congress, and
that he has uot been a very uncandid man,
to put it very mildly, throughout his whole
career.
Blaine has endeavored to draw atten
tion away from these two issues by
making a great deal of noise about the
tariff, but it is plain from the phases
which the campaign is now showing, that
he has not succeeded.
Has Mr .Chaffee been Talking Wildly?
Ex-Senator Chaffee returned North
from Jacksonville on Thursday. The ob
ject of bis visit to Florida can only be
guessed at. It is believed that he selected
agents while there to spend a large cor
ruption fund to carry the State for Blaine.
It may be that he did uot find things so
favorable as he expected for a Republican
victory. The Democrats have been very
active, and have aroused an amount of
enthusiasm iu the paity that ought to be
sufficient to insure a Democratic victory.
The Republicans are not organized and
the leaders haven’t their forces in hand.
There is disaffection growing out of the
dislike of the Independent State ticket.
There is some reason to think that ex-
Senator Chaffee did not find much to en
courage him in Florida. A gentleman
from Charlotte. North Carolina, says that
lie talked with a man on the way from
Jacksonville to this city who was repre
sented to him to be Mr. Chaffee. This
man expressed himself in very vigorous
language with respect to the prospects of
Blaine and Logan and the intentions of
the Republican party. lie said that the
Republican party was determined to re
tain control of the government even if the
army and navy had to be used to accom
plish that object.
If the man who talked in this style was
Mr. Chaffee, he showed himself to be a
verv indiscreet agent. He must have lost
his temper, or taken too many drinks. It
would take a good deal larger navy and
army than this country at present pos
sesses to prevent Grover Cleveland from
baing inaugurated President at Washing
ton, if he should be elected.
The present President will give orders
to the army and navy uutilthe next Presi
dent is inaugurated, and there is nothing
more certain than that Mr. Arthur would
not lend Blaine and his spoilsmen any as
sistance in an efl’ort to sieze the govern
ment illegally. If the man who talked so
wildly on the train between here and
Jacksonville was really ex-Senator Chaf
fee the most charitable conclusion is that
he was uot in his right mind.
A Stupid Oversight.
The widely circulated exposition edition
of the New Orleaus Tima-Democrat con
tained a map which aimed to show the
cotton belt ol the South, the principal
lines of. transportation, and the cotton
ports. If it had not been for the fact that
the very important cotton port of Savan
nah, the second cotton port, had no place
upon it, the map would have been pro
nounced a very good one. Of course the
omission caused a good deal of com
ment. The map was not satislactory to
the people of this city’, and to the manage
ments of the various railroad and steam
ship lines which terminate here, and they
took occasion to express the opinion that
they had been treated unfairly.
It now appears that the failure to men
tion Savannah was a stupid mistake.
The Exposition Commissioner for this
State has received a communication from
the Director-General of the Exposition,
saying that the Exposition had nothing
whatever to do with getting up the map,
and was connected with it only so far as
to accept a donation of several thousand
copies of the paper for distribution. He
explains, however, that there was no in
tention to slight Savannah, and that the
mistake was made by the maker of the
map. He has stopped the distribution of
the papers, and before any more are cir
culated the map will be corrected. The
business manager of the Times-Democrat,
in a letter to the Chief ot Transportation
of the Savannah, Florida and Western
Railway, relieves the Exposition man
agement of all blame in the matter. It
seems to be very clear that there was no
intention to ignore Savannah for the pur
pose of securing a fleeting advantage for
New Orleans.
A Convert.
St. John, it appears, has got his eyes
open at last. Traveling through the
country has done him good. He used to
be a bigoted Republican and a protec
tionist of the strictest sort. He has been
led to lielieve, since this campaign be
gan, that a protective tariff is not alto
gether what the working people want.
In an address at Buffalo a few days ago
be said: “I have been a workingman. 1
know what it is to wield a pick in
a mine, to chop cord-wood, and
to swing a scythe. I have al
ways been a protectionist, but I begin to
think I have been in error. 1 see the
farmers without a market, I see the mills
and manufactories of the country shutting
down. I see men out of work and wages
low. What is the trouble? The tariff
which the Republicans promised should
give us good times has been kept up, but
the Republican promiso has not been
kept. I believe now that the tariff pro
tects the monopolist ten times more than
it does the workingman.”
If some of the rampant protectionists
who think that the country would go to
the dogs if the tariff was reduced could
see the effects of the protective system as
they are now manifesting themselves in
the various parts of the country they
would probably experience a change of
opinion, something like that which has
overtaken the Prohibition candidate.
Doubtless the great Western editor,
Wilbur F. Storey, who died the other day,
enjoyed building up his great paper, the
Chicago Times, but if he contemplated a
period of rest he was disappointed. He
had better stopped work earlier in life.
It is believed that his widow and heirs
are about to engage in a prolonged legal
struggle over the division of his property.
He would have been alive to-day, proba
bly, if he had spent a little more of his
money in enjoying life.

There is no doubt that a* the campaign
progresses, and the people understand more
fully that Ben Butler is only running a
Blaine side-show on Republican money, his
followers are dropping away from him. He
sees it, and that is what makes the old fellow
use violent language. lie is in an unpleas
ant position. On one side, his desire for
revenge on the Democratic party pushes
him forward into his ridiculous performan
ces. On the other, he is disturbed by the
signs that the Democrats will carry the
country, and leave him suspended by the
seat of his trousers over an abyss. Nothing
but Republican money keeps him going now.

to none in the Southern States, having purchased an entirely NEW STOCK, and
having been very particular in my purchases, I can assure my friends and the public
that every article in my establishment is of the LATEST and MOST FASHIONABLE
STYLE. Asa further fact, I can truthfully assert that the assortment I carry is
POSITIVELY UNSURPASSED.
My prices are too well known. They are THE LOWEST, and my guarantee is
equal to that of ANY HOUSE IN THE TRADE. I especially desire to call’atten
tion to my
Immense Stock of Diamonds!
Which I have made the leading article in my business.
WATCHES OF EVERY KIND AND MAKE,
I have also a thorough assortment, but more especially in all the grades made b y
the WALTHAM COMPANY, which I prefer to sell above all others, as they wi 1
invariably give better satisfaction than other makes.
I cannot enumerate every article I keep. Tnis much only I desire to say, that my
ASSORTMENT IS COMPLETE IN EVERY RESPECT and in EVERY BRANCH
ot the JEWELRY BUSINESS.
I invite an examination of my Stock.
