Oct. 19.- An organized effort is under way among the farmers to secure a free mail delivery in. country towns. The farmers alliance, patrons of industry and other orders are canvassing the matter.

' - ' DETROIT TIN PLATE. The Steel I'lates are Made In FittKburg and Finished in Michigan. Detroit has a tin plate factory which has been in operatiou for the past year. It has a daily capacity equivalent to 200 boxes, says the Toledo Blade'. It man ufactures milk cans and lanterns, and supplies the trade with milk-can stock in sizes to suit. It annually . uses large quantities of tin-plate, most-of which, since the new tariff law went into effect, has been tinned in its own factory. The black plates of steel ready for tinning are manufactured m Pittsburg, shipped to Detroit by the car load, and picked, cleaned, dipped and finished in their factor v. This is American tin plate,, and that, too, of a superior quality. The plate is not put upon the market, the company using all it manufactures in its own work. ", In its tin plate department it has now five "stacks" of three pots each, with a total daily capacity of 200 boxes of ordinary tin plate. A sixth stack is in process of erection. This is American tin plate, made in an American factory. It is not necessary that the steel be rolled in the same establishment in which it is tinned, any more than it is necessary for a tailor to run a woolen mill to make the cloth he manufactures into clothing, or a shoe maker to run a tannery to furnish him leather, ' Every part of the tin plate manufactured by this company is American. The steel sheets are made of American metal by American workmen in Pittsburg. They are hauled on Amer ican railroads to Detroit and there coated with tin by American workmen, and the product is sold to the American people. ' the; contest in onio. Democrats Apparently Concede JIcKln . , .... ' ley ' Election. A special telegram from Columbus, October 12, to the Chicago Inter-Ocean, gives this statement :' - rr, ,.; ! ' The impression that has prevailed tb a marked degree during the past few days that the democratic managers have given tip all hopes of carrying Governor Cam pbell through has now grown to a posi tive belief. This belief has already be come general, .distinctively upon the boards in - the pool rooms. Last week propositions were posted, "$100 to $80 that McKinley is elected." The propo sition today read, "$100 to $70 that Mc Kinley is a winner." It is learned tonight that no takers have put in an appearance at these fignres and none are expected, although certain sporting men have offered premiums at these, figures and want to- put np ' a few thousand. One gentleman received $1000 from Chicago to bank on McKinley at the best figures. "But," added the Chicago man, "bank regardless." A dispatch from: Cincinnati tonight gives quotations as follows : i 'McKin ley, $100;' Campbell, $50, and business decidedly dull. Democrats' refuse' to bid except on majority." , ' There is an air of depression about the democratic headquarters, and there is every indication that the heavyweights of the democracy are at .the present moment conducting a secret gum-shoe campaign in the sagebush in the hope of capturing legislative and senatorial dis tricts from under the noses of republi cans . This scheme came nigh' succeed ing six years ago, and it is not probable that they; will be surprised this year. The campaign of ,' McKinley, : Sherman and-Foraker, to say nothing of other campaigners, has been- tod spirited to admit of surprises. - SEDITIOUS ANARCHISTS. r. Rabid Foreigners Who .Should, at Once '.15 Hounded From the Country. , : Philadelphia, Oct. 17. Before Judge Biddle today a hearing was, had of the habeas corpus cases in the " interest of Julius Moskowitz, Isidore Brenner and Morris Gillia, Russian Jews, . charged with a breach of the peace in distribut ing anarchistic circulars, making incen diary speeches and inciting riot. The officers testified as to their : utterances at a meeting. , They advised their hearers not to believe in God, not to fear the po lice: condemned the president of the United States, and said he ought to be killed. Judge Biddle declares that he had no doubt that the preaching of their doctrines was seditious. These foreign ers' came to this country voluntarily, and the first thing they did was to attack our institutions.; They were enemies to the human race. He held all for trial. V: Weather Forecast.

The Democrats of Ohio Have About Give Up the Contest to the High Tariff Men. A Democratic Victor" in Ohio Means More than the Election of a Demo crat Governor. New York, Oct. 16. An Ohio editor having written Mr. Blaine that the democratic papers were parading him as an opponent of the McKinley bill, he replies under date of Augusta, Me., jOct. ; 14, to John Hop'ey, editor of the Journal of Bucyrns, O., as follows: . "You inform me the democratic paper in your town and many democratic -: papers throughout Ohio keep the follow- . ing paragraph standing in type: 'But there is not a section or line in the Mc Kinley bill that will open the market for another bushel of wheat or another barrel of pork. James G. Blaine to Sena tor Fry, July 11 , 1890.' This sentence is garbled and taken lroin its proper con nection, What I diday is the follow ing: . " "I do not doubt that in many respects the tariff bill pending in congress is a just measure, and that most of its pro visions are in accordance with the wise -prlicy of protection , but there is not a'; section or line in the entire bill that will open a market for another bushel of wheat or another pound of pork.' The, letter in which this paragraph occurs ' wrs written to Senator Frye July 11, 1890, and the McKinley bill did not be come a law until October 1, nearly three months thereafter. J "In my letter to Senator Frye I ob jected to the bill because it did not con tain a reciprocity clause, which would provide a market for wheat, pork, and for the other products of the farm and for various fabrics. Before the bill was finally passed a reciprocity clause was inserted and a large addition made to , the free list. It will therefore be seen from what I said in my letter that the objection, which I made to the McKin ley bill, was entirely removed before the bill became a law. Let me further say the reciprocity clause has given an amply market for many barrels of flour . and many pounds of pork. Brazil some months ago entered into a treaty by which many American articles were ad mitted free. Flour, is made free and pork is admitted at nominal duty. Cuba and Porto Rico' have reduced the duty on flour from $5 80 a barrel to $1 (which gives us the market) besides putting . nearly a hundred articles of American, production on the free list. Sarw Domingo has made a reciprocity treaty with flour and pork on the free list, be- -8ides a large number of other articic3.' Other, treaties for reciprocity are in progress. Germany, without negotiating a formal treaty, lias removed the prohi bition on pork, and our government, in consideration thereof, has left her sugar on the. free list. This opens to us an en tirely new market, and $15,000,000 to $20,000,000 of American pork will be consumed per annum, where nota pound has been taken for ten years. The reci- -procity provision is proving very success-- -nil, especially in faim products, and more particularly in the case of the two articles mentioned in the paragraplu quoted flour and ; pork. I am ' notr therefore, an opponent of the McKinley bill, as the democratic papers in Ohio -are constantly alleging. On the con trary, I have cordially supported it ever since it was pefected by the insertion of the leciprocity clause. " - What a Democratic Victory Means. Columbus. O., Oct. 17. A democratic -success in the legislative elections this fall,, it is generally conceded, would ' : mean the enactment of a law providing for the choosing of presidential electors by congressional districts. 'This would practically throw Ohio into the demo cratic column in the electorial college, as by the present system of districts, which would, of course, be retained, 15 teen of the twen ty-one districts are democratic. So it is plain that there is more in the , Ohio campaign than the election of gov ernor. Only One Vote Against It. . Ellensbubg, Wash., Oct. 17, The proposition to bond the middle irrigation district was voted on yesterday, and there was only one vote against it in the entire .district. Moet of the right of way has already been secured, and bids will be called for as soon as the vote is can vassed. One of the directors waited on the Northern Pacific land officials at Ta coma, and they readily granted the right of way on all their lands through which the ditch runs. Contractors are now on the ground anxious to bid on the work and take the bonds in payment.
