“UNCLE JOE” IS
GETTING ANXIOUS
OVER REPUBLICAN OUTLOOK.
THE SITUATION NOT WHAT THE
ADMINISTRATION WOILD
LIKE IT TO BE.
Democratic News from New York
ami New Jersey Not AxMurlnK for
Republican Success—At the Demo
cratic Congressional Heodquar
ters Enconratting Reports of
Prospective Gains in Many States
Are Being Received.
By R. M. Larner.
Washington, Oct. 23.—As election
way draws near those political fore
casters who have been so free in their
predictions as to the general result,
are becoming more cautious in their
statements for publication.
“Uncle Joe" Cannon does not know
how to play the role of a gay deceiver,
and he does not attempt to conceal
from his personal friends that he is
extremely anxious about the complex
ion of the majority in the next House
of Representatives. While in this city,
just after a tour of West Virginia and
Maryland, he talked with the greatest
frankness with his friends. His party
loyalty induced him to say for publi
cation that everything looked lovely
for Republican success in both of those
states, but he invariably put in a quali
fying amendment to the effect that
he feared in some of the congressional
districts the Republicans were threat
ened with a serious attack of over
confidence. “Uncle Joe” wants to hold
his job as Speaker and he does not
care who knows it. That accounts
for his vigorous campaigning. He is
not entirely satisfied with the congres
sional outlook, either in West Virginia
or Maryland.
Getting on the Firing Line.
Both parties are bringing to the
firing line their heaviest ordnance in
these, the closing days of the cam
paign. Conservative men of both
parties were deeply impressed with
the forcible speech of Grover Cleve
land in New York Friday night. Its
effect is likely to be felt particularly
In New York and New Jersey. Dem
ocrats, who have heretofore belittled
almost every public utterance of Mr.
Cleveland, are to-day sounding his
praises and speculating upon the in
fluence his speech will have upon the
conservative business men of those
two states, so important in this con
test.
Roosevelt Has Mnch to Explain.
Although the Panama and the Phil
ippine questions are supposed to he
settled beyond dispute, so far as the
present campaign is concerned,
thoughtful people are beginning to
realize that the present administration
has much to explain regarding its ac
tion in dealing with those two prob
lems. Although the speech of Senator
Culberson, in New York the other
night, intimating that the President
encouraged the Panama revolution,
may be something of a political chest
nut, it nevertheless lifted the admin
istration lid very effectively and start
ed Senator Lodge and other personal
friends of the President on an ener
getic explanation expedition. When
one forces his opponent to the ex
planation point, he usually has his
adversary at a disadvantage. There is
much yet to be told about the Pana
ma canal deal.
A Parker Wave.
From New York comes the report
that the Democrats have good reason
for claiming New York and New Jer
sey for Judge Parker. It is said that,
much of the so-called “Roosevelt popu
larity” in those two states, is manufac
tured for campaign purposes to in
fluence the betting. A New York sport
ing man, who is handling large sums
of money in connection with election
bets, (on commission), tells me that the
odds of 4 to 1, on Roosevelt, so free
ly offered, are based on a fictitious val
uation of Roosevelt’s popularity. He
says that although Roosevelt is at
present a good to 2 to 1, favorite,
conditions may change in the last week
of the campaign as they did in the
Blaine campaign. On that occasion
“The Plumed Knight” was a hot fav
orite in the betting, 5 to 1, largely on
the ground of his supposed personal
popularity. His methods did not, how
ever, appeal to the conservative busi
ness men, of the country and he was
beaten by Cleveland, who was no bet
ter known then than Judge Parker
to' to-day.
The ConKressionnl Outlook.
At Democratic congressional head
quarters, Chairman Cowherd Is re
ceiving encouraging reports of pros
pective gains in West Virginia, In
diana, Maryland, Delaware, New Jer
sey and Nebraska. The fact that the
Republicans have put up congressional
candidates in five district* In Georgia
has not been overlooked and Chairman
Cowherd has assurances that the Geor
gia delegation w.iil remain solid in
the next Congress. There appears to
be some uncertainty about Carter
Tate's old district, the ninth, where
Tom Bell is running against James
Ashley, representative, based on Re
publican claims that Tate’s friends
are not enthusing over Tom Bell.
MOBILE FIHE STILL BURNING.
W hole of the Plant of the l.nmher
Company Destroyed.
Mobile. Ala., Odt. 23.—Aotual figures
are not obtainable of the loss by fire
in the lumber district north of this
city early this morning. The whole
of the plant of the Mobile Lumber
Company, which was one of the fin
est band sawmills in Alabama, was
destroyed, along with offices and out
structures. Nearly 1,000.000 feet of
oak and cypress lumber was consum
ed. along with the wharves in front
of the company's property.
Six workmen’s houses, a schoolhouse
and other small buildings at the ad
joining mill of Hubbard Bros, were
destroyed and the Louisville and
Nashville Railroad track was burned
for hundreds of feet, with heavy loss
of telephone and telegraph wires.
Three nearby mills were repeatedly
on fire, but the conflagration was suc
cessfully fought by their employes.
The fire commenced at 11 o’clock on
Saturday night and burned for five
and a half hours before It was under
control. Firemen from the city with
two steamers are still working on it.
A Murine's Last Call to Duty.
Beaufort, 8. C., Oct. 23.—First Sergt.
Fred Harchewitx died last night at the
Port Royal Marine Hospital, after an
Illness of five days with pneumonia. He
was SO years of age, had served twen
ty years In the United States Marine
Corps. He was a native of Germany
and served his country bravely In the
Franco Prussian War, for which he re-
elved a medal of honor. After a mili
tary funeral to-day at the station,
during which three volleys were fired,
his remains were taken to Norfolk by
his wife lor burial.
AT THE THEATER
A week of brilliant attractions will
open to-night with Willard Spencer's
delightful opera, “Miss Bob White,"
with Miss Mae Phelps as the prima
donna and Frank Deshon in the lead
ing comedy role. The opera has been
heard here once before, and no more
enjoyable opera has ever been present
ed to Savannah theater-goers. It was
presented Saturday night in Charles
ton, and the News and Courier says
of the company producing it:
“It is large and well selected. Frank
Deshon —the same old-young, or young
old scapegrace, who has tickled the
Frank Doslion.
risibles of many a Charleston audi
ence on many a previous occasion, was
a great deal of the show. He is a
headliner no matter what’s trumps.
His side partner, McClure, was also
good, and the ill-assorted pair had the
stage a great deal of the time, and
nobody objected. Miss .Mae Phelps,
as Bob White, and Miss Benson, as
Goldenrod, the pretty little Quakeress,
sang and danced and talked themselves
into immediate favor. Miss Harris
made a stately Colonial Dame.”
Wilson Barrett’s religious drama,
“The Sign of the Cross, which will be
presented by Fred G. Berger and R.
G. Craerin to-morrow matinee and
night has from its initial performance
obtained renown for its spectacular ef
fects.
The period of the play is in Rome
In the reign of the tyrant, Nero, at
the time shortly preceding the downfall
of the mighty city, then mistress of the
world. It was a time when extrava
gance, luxury and libertinism ran riot.
The scenes in Rome at that time are
reproduced. The story, one of beau
tiful narrative and intense dram’atic
power, is built around the persecution
and martyrdom of the early Christians
in this hotbed of paganism. It is thril
ling to the senses with Its play of
vivid emotions, love, hate, contempt
and fury, all in the overwhelming un
restraint that marked them in the d'ays
of Nero’s tyranny.
The matinee prices are: Orchestra
50c, balcony, adults 50c, children, un
der 12 years of age 25c. Regular prices
prevail at night.
“Many a flower is born to blush un
seen, etc.," but not so with “An Eng
lish Daisy,” which has been seen, 'And
delighted capacity houses at the Casi
no Theater, in New York, for ten
weeks, and could easily have remain
ed the season had it not been for prev
ious bookings at the theater. The bast,
numbering sixty people, scenery and
mechanical effects will be seen Wed
nesday matinee and night. "An Eng
lish Daisy,” is said to be the most
tuneful comedy, pypsented in years.
The company is a large one and, fore
most in it, Murray, and Mack. A de
cided feature of the production is “Pert
and Flirt,” “Two Lions,” specimens of
the king of beasts, who play an im
portant part in the marriage scene,
which takes place in the lion's den.
The following is a scenic synopsis of
the play.
Act I: Morning, .outside the Kur
saal Garden, Ostend. (During Car
nival Time).
Act II: Night, scene 1. Green room
at the Kusaal. Scene 2, the dress
ing rooms at 'the Kursaal.' Scene 3:
Illuminated garden at the Kursaal.
Seats will be on sale this morning at
9 o’clock. The matinee prices are:
Orchestra 50, balcony, adults 50c, chil
dren 25c. At night. Orchestra $l.OO,
balcony 75c and 50c, gallery 25c.
Playgoers can laugh with a clearer
conscience at "The Sultan of Sulu,”
than at almost any other musical com
edy. The Ade-Wathall melange is now
in its third year. There are many rea
sons why this merry musical satire
has a strong hold on popular favor.
In the first place, the words are writ
ten in George Ade's best vein and the
lyrics have a jingle to them worthy
of W. S. Gilbert, when that brilliant
writer and Sir Arthur Sullivan were at
the zenith of their fame. The music
is also delightfully catchy and the
Iscervic effects are veidtable thumps
of stage realism. "The Sultan of
Sulu,” will be given Thursday night.
Seats will be on sale to-morrow morn
ing: Orchestra $1.50, balcony $l.OO and
75c, gallery 25c.
“Babes in Toyland,” Glen McDon
ough and Victor Herbert’s musical
comedy, said by Allen Dale, the fam
ous New York critic to eclipse any
thing seen in London, the home of
musical comedy, and declared by
Huneker to contain musical numbers
which will come to be regarded as
classics, will be presented here, Sat
urday matinee and nigh’t. The com
pany Hamlin and Mitchell are sending
out numbers eighty people. Mary Mar
ble, “Little Chip,” Budd Ross, Miss
Avis Dale, Florence Borgere, Helen
Mayo and many other stars, well known
on Broadway occupy prominent parts
in "Toyland."
HnldliiK for maker Prices.
Covington, Ga., Oct. 23.—A large per
centage of this year's cotton crop in
Newton county is being held for high
er prices. It Is stated that more than
enough cotton has already been mar
keted here to pay the expense of mak
ing the crop. Not in a good many
years have farmers of this section been
known to have so much money on de
posit in the local banks.

“FRANCHISE IS
A SACRED RIGHT.”
Continued from Eighth Page.
the return of the late election. This
wonderful combination might happen
once. Forty times in one election
would be an impossibility. People don’t
rent house, work in shops, do
business in any such way, and it is
absurd to think they would vote
that way. Such, however, was the
case in the voting list I examined, ex
cept the alphabetic poll ran from ten
in a group to many more. What won
derful discipline the noble 4,500 Demo
crats show that they discover just
when their fellows of the same in
itial will be ready to vote, wait on
each other's convenience with beauti
ful patience, fall into alphabetical
ranks and march in sweet unison to
the polls. Lovely sight! Tammany take
lesson. Instead of ‘Dixie’ the Citi
zens’ Marching Club has adopted a
new campaign tune called the ‘Al
phabetic Quick-Step.’
“Such absurdity is a demonstration
of the arraqt fraud in our last elec
tion.
“The other day a gentleman said to
me: ‘The boys say you are making a
big fuss over a little matter.’ Is it
a little matter? Is a sham election
little? Is fraud in the source of all
government little? When you consid
er the election as a mere form some
may pass it by as insignificant. When
you examine it as a symptom of pub
lic health, as a manifestation of dis
ease in a vital institution it cannot be
regarded as a trivial offense! Men
who will do this wrong under so
slight a temptation will go to any
length when more serious issues are
at stake. Public indifference to such
gross fraud in so sacred an institu
tion reduces the sense of civic duty to
a dangerous minimum. Submission, as
one aptly says, proclaims the pu
silamity of our people. Give me a
government founded on might rather
than one built on fraud. I had rather
weigh my shackles than be the un
conscious victim of such subtlety
woven fetters.
“Only Dixcordnnt Element.”
“This crime is dangerous in its rev
elation of the facility of its perpetu
ation, the apathy as to Its existence
and the readiness of its defense. So
secure are its sponsors that I am re
ferred to as the only ‘discordant ele
ment.’
“Note heretofore I have only charged
the election managers with this wrong.
The other night, however, the domi
nant political faction claimed it as
their own. By virtue of this claim
I thus treat the matter. If they re
ceive honor for 4,500 genuine votes
they should 'be held responsible if the
bulk of them are shown to be dishon
est.
“Yes, thank God, I am not an ele
ment In accord with that Iniquity.
While I serve Him I shall always be
in discord with shams, lies, frauds;
with Sunday desecration, illegal liquor
selling, gambling, the policy shop, an
open town, and every other degreda
tlon Imposed upon us. When I make
friends with these iniquities let men
suspect my moral character.
“In the Bible we have accounts of
several discordant elements. One
story tells of Mordecai and Hamon.
Old Mordecai was the ‘one discordant
element’ in the way of Haman’s glory.
■And when Haman saw that Mordecai
would not, nor did him reverence,
then was Hamon full of wrath.’ His
tory repeats itself. Let this modern
Mordecai be careful not te build his
gallows for ’the one discordant ele
ment’ too high.
"This fraud is dangerous in its ten
dencies. It tends to weaken the per
sonal responsibility of the voter.
“Sapping Civic Activity.".
"If proxy can discharge this duty,
why should a man exert himself. It
tends to sap civic activity. If I am
voted without my consent, why regis
ter? Why pay poll taxes? It tends
to disregard of all laws. If legislator
and judge are elected in a ballot box
saturated with lawlessness, why should
the private citizen be expected to?
“It tends to promote vice and crime.
It is the root of a tree bearing twelve
manner of evil fruits. The fruits of
Sabbath desecration, selling liquor to
minors and drunkards, gambling and
all that class of Iniquity. It is the
parent of the lawless spirit of the com
munity and the times. It tends to
weaken faith in education as prepara
tion for civic, duty. The object lessons
of suoh practices unrebuked make
school lessons in citizenship and the
flag the sheerest mockery.
“I am criticized because turning
light on these practices will injure
Savannah. It is not the revelation,
hut the existence of evil, that hurts a
people. Continue these evils in silence
and disgrace will burst forth from
every pore of the body politic. Cure
them, and its true beauty will be man
ifest.
"In conclusion, the Augusta Chroni
cle is right. If I have libeled the au
thorities, arrest and punish me. Gladly
would I spend a term in jail to clean
Savannah of this blot.
"If, however, the authorities have
made the mud, put It on your escutch
eon and I have only exposed It. Your
honor demands that you should avenge
the wrong and punish the guilty."

DEBS GIVES VENT TO~
SOCIALISTIC VIEWS.
Looks In Time for the Stamping Out
of the Middle floss.
New York, Oct. 23.—Eugene V. Debs,
the presidential candidate of the So
cialist party, addressed a meeting
here to-day in the Academy of Music
to ratify his nomination. The hall was
crowded and Mr. Debs was given an
enthusiastic reception. He said that
the economic freedom of the laboring
class hinges upon the showing which
the Socialists may make in the com
ing election and declared that the
enmity between the leisure class and
the laboring class is increasing.
"The so-called middle class will
cease to exist as soon as the laboring
class finds out that it has had enough
of capitalism,” he continued. “You
need a few more millionaires and
tramps, the one enslaved by super
abundance of food and with lack of
digestion: the other cursed with
abundance of digestion but lack of
food. The capitalist is bound to at
tack the so-called middle class, and
when he gets through with you gen
tlemen of the middle classes you will
be ready for us. You will then find
♦hat the time has come to shake off
.he two platforms of the same party
which are in the field for election.
The nominee of one of these plat
forms was the choice of J. P. Morgan,
the nominee of the other the choice
of John D. Rockefeller. You have no
candidate, you middle class.”
