Governor Gray Informed Presi dent Cleveland there was no use ex peotlng that Indiana would give a democratic majority, as the state was almost certain to go republican, and assigned as reasons the attitude of the democratic party on the tarifl question, and state pride which de sires to see ono of its honored citi zens the nation's chief magistrate. Governor Gray's head is level. There is not a particle of doubt in reference to Indiana. It has been apparent almost from tho first that the state would stand by her gifted son, and latter events have rendered this almost certain. Peiccptibic to outsiders thero has been a steady growth of public senti ment In his favor. His most re markable scries of speeches, which have arrested universal public at tention, have justly inspired the people of the slate with constantly Increasing pride in their fellow citi zen, which is evidenced by tho en thusiastic delegations which are pouring in upon him from all sections of the state. There is no mistaking tho temper of thee crowds. They are full of contagious enthusiasm, and each and every individual in them feels that the state would be forever dis graced did she not give a rousing majority for Ben Harrison, and in deed she would be. Dispassionate observers on both sides agree that the enthusiasm shown for Harrison is without a parallel In the history ol that state, remarkable as it is for exciting campaigns. Oh, Indiana is all right, and so is the solid North, for everywhere en thusiasm for Harrison is deeping and widening and is rapidly form ing itself into a resistless Hood that will bury Grover and his free trade crew so deep that they will never be heard from again. Every day makes it nioieapparent that the Chicago convention builded wiser than It knew when it placed Benjamin Harrison at tho head of the ticket. Tho campaign has de veloped the true greatness of his character and abilities, and the American people will never throw him aside for such a mass of adipose and Incompetency as Grover Clove land. UK i;.i'laim:i it. A J)einocrat in Iowa who under took to defend the Mills bill on tho President's theory that tho cost of an article is increased by exactly the amount of duty collected on it, wandeied from his huso and de manded of the Kepublicans "Why do you want a duty on agricultural implements when wo can buy them cheaper here than abioad." Then ho proceeded to prove his statement by quoting from u recent speech made by Congressman Brewer of Michigan as follews: "Something over thn.o years ago T attended a national agricultural exhibition of France. Theio were fourteen or fif teen acres of ground covered with farming implements, tools, machin ery, etc. All tho exhibitors had their price lists upon their exhibits and I was careful to obtain copies of them. The lowest priced horso-rako was IKOfmnoks, or (50 of our money. Tho lowest priced mower was $102 and was no better than wo sell for ?110. The ploww, harrows and cul tivators weio 20 per cent, above tho price they were soiling for In tho United States." Ho lgnonmtly sup posed this to bo a strong argument In favor of his position, and failed to sco tlmt It destroyed tho founda tion ho had established at tho begin ning of his argument. But this is tho way with all, from tho president dewn: none of them pursue their In vestigations far enough to under stand clearly what they advocate. "Fi-ood's estate," says tho San Francisco Alta of tho dying million aire, "Is valued by good Judges at (15,000,000. At tho hoight of tho bonanza excitement, when shares ou tho leading mines brought (900 and paid (oO a month dividend, Flood's wealth was rated at (40,000, 000, but then came tho great shrink age in Coinstook values, which cut down tho fortune of all tho mining millionaires fully one-half, and Flood's losses by tho Nevada bauk wheat ileal woro fully (5,000,000. Tho property will probably bo equal ly divided botween tho wife, son and daughter. Tho latter vus always Flood's favorite, mid at ono tlmosho posoccd In horown right (5,000,000 In real estate ami government bonds, Bho gave much of this to help her father out of his embarrassments a year aco, but still owns about (2,000, 000. Young Flood is shrewd, but has no stability, and tho old man never trusted him In any largo deals." Pnlnleta dental operations nt Dr. T. C Smith's, 02 State Btrvot. W. C. T. U. COLUMN., The Uneiny nt Work. Mrs. M. C. Lord, writing from Passadena, says let no one be alarm ed at the report that five hundred "voters" in Passadena have petition ed for high license. Tho list of names was scarely printed when a citizen offered one hundred dollars if ho could ascertain who forged his name. Another leading business man stated that the name figuring as his on the petition was not placed there by him, and that he opposed license, high or low. The "oldest inhabitant" fluds the names strange ly unfamiliar, and but why go on? The readers understand the tactics of the enemy; the whole thing seems to be done for outside effect ; no one is deceived. There is a strong faction determined to dis credit our prohibitory ordinance, but the sentiment of the people is overwhelmingly on the side of the ordinance, and the women are awake. The contest is not merely a local one ; we nave tue wine and liquor tralllc of the whole state, not to say nation, to fight, and it boasts that it will break the backbone of this tem perance town. Tncreloro listen to no unfavorable reports unless they come from the V. C. T. U. Good AVork In Arkansas. Major Hilton's coming has mightily stirred Hot Springs. For five days ho held meetings and many new members are being added to our number as a result of our work, and words of encouragement and God speed are heard from many who once would havo said "You can do nothing." Tho secret of Major Hilton's success is consecration. He turns the blaze of gospel light upon the liquor business, and exposes the monster in all his hideousucss. His weapon is the two-edged sword of truth, and It strikes to the heart, convincing a man, not against his will, but through his will. His special aim is to reach that sleepy, apathetic class of Christians who delude themselves with the thought that they are not their brother's keeper, and his success may be well expressed in the leiunrk of Louis XIV. to the preacher Ma'-sillon: "We have heard many orators and been pleased with them; liaviug heard you we are much displeased with ourselves." Tho Immigrant as lie sets foot in New York almost under the shadow of "Liberty Enlightening the World," must run the gauntlet of tho live hundred saloons and low boarding houses which cluster around Castle Garden. Every dc vieo which a wicked ingenuity can invent is brought to bear upon the unsophisticated forelgnerjto entice him into these dens of vice. Tho San Francisco grand Jury in its last report stated that thero are 1,200 or 1,500 criminals in that city and county who virtually control elections. "Nlnety-nlno onc-hundrodths of tho children of Ameilca kept out of school are tho children of drunk ards." In tho last ten years 8,000 patients have been treated at tho Temper ance Hospital, London.

Ing asked when tho training of a child should begin, replied, "A hundred years before it Is born." John L. Sui.iiivAN,the prizo fight er, now that he is recovering from his lato serious illness declares that ho will never drink again, and ex hibits sufilclent moral courage to say: "Thero was a time In my sickness when I was thought to bo dying, but God was good to mo and gave mo ono more chance. I've fully made up my mind what to do with tho chance, ami I will never agalu touch a glass of beer or a drop of any kind of intoxicating liquor. No man who Is a friend of mlno will over nsk mo in ilrlnlr nmiln If Sullivan keeps this pledge, says tho Orogonlan, and It Is very prob ablo ho will, ho will become a better man than ho ever has been mon tolly, morally and physically, and will win tho most Important battle of his life.

All Halloween Faali!on. Th- amusements of the ere greatly vary in different localities, and among dif ferent people. In some sections, parties, where all the ladies are dressed In calico or a kindred ma'etial, and their male at tendants are arrayed in vests, coats and neckties of the same material, are the vogue. Frequently the young ladies send sufficent material, like thir gowns, for the gentlemen's outfits, to the honso of the person who gives the party. Then, on an evening a week previous to said party, all the gentlemen invited, meet and select their materials. This they have made into coats, vests and neckties, with out knowing to whom they are indebted. On Halloween, as each gent walks into the reception-room, he selects, for his part ner, the youog lady wearing the gown that matches hi-, coil, Thus, acording to tra dition, he learns his fate inlhe: lottery of mairiinouv. Another way i-, for each lady to make a necktie from material liki- the gown she is to wear. AH these neckties are put in a box, in the gentle men's drexstng-room, and each selects what, to htm, is the prettiest and most nt-itly made. He chro-es, tor his partner, ilieuun laJy with gown to match. The menu of this feast embraces nuts, apple, di uhiiutn and eider, Hnd some times.i Minplu domestic cake. The gentle men ol ;ue pmy should, to carry out the "idea," crucK all t lie nuts, nud then act as walterx, paxtmtg the refreshments to the ladies. No servant should appear on the scene. Tiik American national vice of carelessness ought to be solicitously excluded from the operation of our railroads, from motives of economy, even if no higher conjlderation be admitted to the accounts. The Lehigh valley disaster should be the conspicuous illustration of this com mon failing. Ilecklessucss like that which made this horrible slaughter possible, is scarcely distinguishable Irotn criminality. Such an awful event needs to be followed not only by atonement, but retribution as well. The blood of tho slain cries out from the ground against the guilty ones. Tie Mirkets.
