"i 1 1 : i 1 1 ii mi fnvjr Other things have been settled by scien tific research, but no one yet has ever been able accurately to determine whether a big man when he has the rheumatism. Since President Cleveland knocked down all the pins in the alley, the other fellows have not been able to bowl. They are in bad shape. In a communication received by James Whitley ol Philadelphia President Cleve land denies the truth of the statement pub lished In the North American Review to the effect that "I belive in free trade as I be lieve in the Protestant religion." The dispatches tell of a republican in Nebraska who has bet his wife against a cow that Harrison will be elected. This fellow has fallen upon this shrewd plan to get rid of his wife. The divorce laws of Nebraska must be very rigid to compel a man to resort to this kind of a scheme to get rid of his wife. Democratic gain in Maine on the vote of iSSj.. seventeen oer cent. Republican gain in Maine on the vote of i$S4, ten per cent. These are the odd arithmetical facts against which Mr. Blaine's "political revolution" looks like a sick kitten dying on a chunk of ice. Frank L Janaway, editor of the FrcJo f'aa,a repub'ican paper of New Brunswick, N.J., who is now in E.trope,has written to a friend in that city that he will vote for Cleveland and Thurman. Mr. Janeway is largely interested in the manufacture of wall papers and was the republican candi date for Mayor two years aro. All that is needed now for overwoked Congressmen is the opportunity to vote by proxy while taking part in the political campaign. Mr. Henry Cabot Lodge has succeeded in having a speech on retaliation nserted in the C ongrcssional Record on the same day that he was addressing an audi ence in Maine on the benefits of protection. In 1SS0 the democrats carried Maine in the September election, and Gen. Hancock was beaten for President in November. In 1SS4 the republicans carried Maine by a plurality of nearly twenty thousand, and Blaine was beaten in November of the same year. It is quite evident that Maine is out of the main current of political opin ion in this country and exerts no influence upon its elections. Ths republican pretense is that the war tariff must b: retained intact "in Ihe inter est of Labor." The average labor cost in manufactured articles in 1SS0 was 18 per cent. The average duty is 47 per cent. Hence there is a tariff for bounties of 29 per cent. The Mills bill cuts off the odd 9 per cent. And the bounty-grabbers call this "Free Trade." What fools they take the people to be ! President Hyde of Bowdoin College has declared himself independent of the repub lican party, and has submitted his reasons In its unsoundness on the great issue of Federal taxation. As a result he is sub jected to persecution and the Maine repub licans declare that he must leave the col lege. We thought there was freedom of opinion in New England, but it seems that even a college President can earn his bread only by agreeing with Mr. Blaine. It will be seen that the democratic rote at the election in Maine is an increase of S06S over Mr. Cleveland's vote in 1884, while the republican vote is 7394 over that of Mr. Blaine. The democratic increase is 17 per cent plus, and the republican increase is 10 per cent plus, over 18S4. These are the cold, hard, mathematical facts. Let any republican get him to his Tribune Al manac, or other place where he can find election tables,and figure it out for himself. The President is 17 per cent stronger in Maine than he was four years ago, while Mr. Blaine has gained onlv 10 per cent. Applying the same ratios to New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and Indiana, Mr Harrison's chances become a rapidly dis solving view. The latest political srnsation in the Tenth Congressional district of Illinois is the declaration of the Fulton Demtcrat for Cleveland and tariff reform. Since 1S76 this journal has been independent of party, but with a leaning toward prohibition dur ing and since 1SS4. This action is in har mony with the long-proclaimed views of its management on the tariff and the St. Louis platform. W. T, Davidson, editor and proprietor of the Democrat, is a man of ability and has a large personal following. His paper Is Influential. The action as sures large f,alns for Cleveland and Palmer. The news causes a jubilee among democrats. The New York World of the nth Inst, says : "The President's letter of acceptance has given a tremendous impetus to betting, but the belieers in democratic doctrine find it very difficult to place their bets. Billy Edwards, of the Hoffman.holds a bet of $Soo even on the state of New York and has $700 of republican money which the owner wnts to stake against $1,000 on the general result. A gentle.tian who gave his name as Famsworth wanted to make a bet running up into the thousands at the Bartlioldi, but he either could not find any takers or else did not mean what he 6aid. Thornton N. Motley has put up $1,000 at the New York Club against a like sum wagered by Nat Jones, the big speculator in wheat. Mr. Motley won $8,400 in tSS4 on Cleveland's election. Five hundred dollars is on deposit at "Jack's," No. 121 Broadway, waiting for somebody to come and say that Harrison will be elected. The betting last night was 10 to 8 on democratic victory in New York state, even money and ii a few cases 5 to 4 on the general re sult, with Cleveland as the favorite, and I to 2 on the state of Indiana, the republicans being asked to give the odds." Still they come! Judge J. D. Piatt, presi dent of the Commercial National Bank of Waterloo, Iowa, and Hon. Lore Alford,one ol the most prominent attorneys in Iova( and an ex-speaker of a Republican House of Represtativcs, have announced them selves for Cleveland. Judge Piatt says he cannot longer snpport the Republican party because of its position an the tariff ques tion. Mr. Alford differs with his party on the tariff question and the free whisky plank and will vote for Cleveland. Every million of dollars collected at our custom houses for duties upon imported articles and paid into the public treasury represent many millions more, which though never reaching the National Treas ury, are paid by our citizens at the increas ed cost of domestic productions resulting from our tariff laws. President Cleveland's Letter of Acceptance. WHERE TO UO. An Important Question.
