rr.ans on the ground of Impetlallsm and militarism, but when they began to take an Invoice they round that they were mistaken on th.it line and the Germans really never were agitated about imperialism and militarism and that they hid no more confidence In Mr. Rryan's free silver policy In 1'.'0 thin they had In that heresy In 1S:h", In fact, the Intelligent German voter ioon dlscovcred that Mr. Ilryan had not changed hU notion about free sliver any more than the leopard could chnnge his spots, and the Germans dropped Mr. IJryan like a hot potato. TALKED OF FARMERS. "The next loud pretentious claim that th Rryanlus made was that the farmers were going to vote for Ilryan, and that turned into such a huse joke that they did ret pursue It more than a day or two and got out of it by Fhlftln and claiming the Quaker vote of the State. Hence, the Democratic campaign has been one of clafm of this, that and the other class of citizens, without any foundation. The most conservative polling of the State that has ever been made by any party has been made by the Republicans on three different uatea in thi campaign. I refer to the sis months, 5l.ty-day and thirty-day polls, and without giving figures, J want to assure every Republican that they are most satisfactory and prove conclusively that any claims made by the Rryanltos are as faise as the prophecies made by them in WC will carry three congressional districts In which the plurality in any one of them will be larger than the plurality of the Rryanites in all of the district? they can carry put together. We vrlll elect eleven congressmen in Indiana and nobody knows that better than the Bryan managers and the gentlemen who are running for Congress on the tickets in tho.se districts. We will have both branches of the Legislature and the plurality for McKinley in Indiana will be larger than ever tra riven to a Republican candidate for

the presidency. The Rryanites are in the midst of a landslide and they appreciate It full v. as shown by the efforts they are now making in trying to get their forces together in some of the close Democratic district. TAGGART AD BOO D LIS. "Mr. Taggart. who assumes to be the whole Democratic machine in the State of Indiana, is now going about the. State with his boodle and is doling1 out the JTAOOO that, he got from Tammany through Mr. Crokcr. and is turning his attention to tle Fourth congressional district, where he knows we have the Democratic candidate beaten and that we expect to keep him beaten by such a safe plurality that there will be no uncertain sound in the returns. Mr. Taggart was in De Kalb county last week (the county where the election certificates were stolen), and It 13 reported that some of his henchmen left the meeting with the Taggart grin on their faces. "We have positive information that a -.systematic attempt will be made by the Democrats to buy election boards throughout the State, the same as was practiced in the last city election in Indianapolis, with the hope that Sir. Taggart can get Mr. Kern into the Governor's omce and that these gentlemen can use the State of Indiana for the Fame purposes that they have used the city of Indianapolis, that is. to sell bonds and borrow money to run the State .government. But the honest. patriotic people of Indiana will not subscribe to Mr. Taggarfs boodle proposition. and when he attempts to spread out over the State, he will find that the people will repudiate him at every turn. There has been a systematic effort on the part of this same Taggart machine to trade off Bryan votes for votes for Kern, but this has been so vehemently denied by Mr. Kern that the probabilities are that they will drop that. Still It is well for Republicans to be on their guard throughout the State on this trading proposition." - CAPT. ENGLISH'S 1M.M:SS. He Will De Able to Fill Rest of Ills Date TlilM Week. Captain Willlara E. English, after speaking to large meetings at Richmond, Thursday, Greensbure Friday and Franklin Saturday, suffered a relapse of the illness from which he suffered early last week, and upon returning from Franklin Saturday night was compelled to take to his bed, where he has been confined since.

A LKTTKR. OF WARNING. Scheme of Democrat to Make Colored Men I.oe Vote. Letters have been sent out to the Republican precinct committeemen telling of an attempt by the DemocraU to get men to movo before election day so they, will lose their votes. The letter also states that a particular effort Is being made to get colored men to leave the city before election day. It is said a number of men representing themselves to be government officials are going among the colored people and asking them to express their sentiments with regard to the disfranchisement in the South. The scheme is to have the voter make a mark, under the Democratic ticket after stamping the eagle, as an evidence that they are opposed to the methods of the Democrats in the South. The mark would Invalidate the ticket. The colored men are being placed on their guard. The Rev. J. W. Carr has been chosen as chairman of the meeting arranged for the colored people at Tomllnson Hall, Friday night. The parade which precedes the meeting will be In charge of Charles W. Brown. James N. Shelton will be chief of staff, and Jesse N. Ringgold, adjutant. It has not yet been determined who will make the principal address. ItKI'LIlLICAX OUTLOOK. Senator Fnirliankii Says the Victory Will Re Substantial. Senator Charles W. Fairbanks said yesterday that the result of the coming election is not involved in the slightest doubt. Ho predicts that the Republicans will carry Indiana by a very decisive majority for both the State and national tickets. Mr. Fairbanks says the people are thoroughly satisfied with the administration, and will express their approval of it at the polls. The JRepublicans will carry the Legislature, and beside the congressional districts now held by the Republicans Mr. Fairbanks Hays there Is a. strong probability of carrying one or two of the Democratic districts. In speaking of the national outlook Mr. Fairbanks said: "The probabilities are that McKinley's electoral vote will be larger than it was In 1KHL New York Is sure to give him a plurality. Kansas will go Republican by a large majority. "Washington and .California will also be In the Republican column. Utah is debatable and we may carry Nebraska." FRIDAY MfJIlT MEETING. Prominent Colored Orators Who Will De Heard. The colored Republicans are making great preparations for their big rally Friday night. The speakers at Tomllnson Hall will be Judson W. Lyons, registrar of the United States Treasury; Bishop Arnett, of Ohio; Nelson Crews, of Missouri; Representative McEhvee, of Tennessee; and the Rev. J. W. Carr, of this. city, who will preside over the meeting. There were a number of enthusiastic meetings in preparation for the big event last night. S. G. Givens addressed about one hundred members of the John Brown Itepublican Club in the Kourth ward. The Washington Republican Club, of Haughville, was addressed by Joseph Broyles and Dr. Henry W. Furniss. A small Äouse meeting in the Fourth precinct of the Fifth ward was attended by about fifty of the colored voters of the ward. Willis Kersey addressed the meeting. Election Question Answered. Attorney General Taylor has been receiving numerous inquiries relative to the qualification of election officers when they are related to candidates, and yesterday gave the following opinion on the subject: "First The question of relationship to candidates does not apply to clerks and sheriffs. "Second The terms cousins and second cousins in the law apply only to blood cousins, and not cousins by marriage. "Third The term brother-in-law applies only where the candidate or election olflcer has married the sister of the other, and not where both have married sisters. Men who have married sisters are not brothers-in-law within the term of the election law." With reference to a person coming of lawful age to vote one day after the election, Mr. Taylor holds that a person born on Nov. 7, 1S79, can vote Nov. 6, 1000. Marlon County Safe. Secretary Elliott, of the Republican county committee, claims that Marion county Is safe for the whole Republican ticket by snug majorities. He bases this belief on the actual existing conditions, the past political history of the county and the thirty-day poll. He says the Democracy has been paying little attention to Its organization. "They are attempting, however, to get our voters to move wherever they can," he asserted, "and they are trying to colonize colored voters. Itepublican leaders and workers should be on their guard. We also hear of Democratic 'repeaters. " Parade of Rough Riders. On next Monday afternoon the Republicans have arranged for a parade through the principal streets of the city. ' It is to be the last appearance of Colonel Clark's Rough Riders, and every one who takes part in the parade will have to be mounted. Senator Reverldge, Representative Overstreet and Governor Mount will ride at the hc.d of the parade.

Illinois Educator Seeks to Compel Corporation Franchise Taxation. CHICAGO, Oct. 29. Mandamus proceedings Were begun to-day by Catherine Goggin, president of the Teachers Federation of Chicago, against each of the twenty-two members of the State Board of Equalization and State Auditor James S. McCullough to compel the board to find the fair cash value of more than $225,000,000 worth of intangible capital stock and franchise property of twenty-three Chicago corporations and to assess the corporations at once according to law so thJtt they will pay their portion of the taxes for lyOO. This step was necessitated, the teachers say, by the obvious intention of the members of the State board to shirk the Issue of assessing the corporations until after election. Once in office again, it is charged the members will refuse to consider the matter of franchise tax, and will allow the corporations to escape taxation. EI0T IN LONDON. (CONCLUDED FROM FIRST PAGE.) lng and swearing throngs fought vainly among themselves for the right of way. Half an hour was needed to make a hundred yards' passage along the Strand, and the feat could only be accomplished at the risk of life or limb. The few Isolated policemen In evidence were borne helpless upon the tide of patriotic enthusiasm, whose invariable characteristic was drunkenness, partial or complete. The night was a repetition of "Mafeklns night" without the redeeming excuses of that celebrated orgy. London was turned over to the worst elementsof its population. Women were insulted, kissed or thrown down with impunity in street fights. Pursued at the sweet will of inebriate brawlers from the sidewalks, they streamed along historic thoroughfares shouting, sobbing and brandishing peacock feathers with inane depravity. Many of them offered no exception to the rule of drunkenness. Babes in arms could frequently be seen. Countless different uniforms of soldiers of the empire, regulars, volunteers and colonials, added vivid color to an extraordinary spectacle, the like of which was never witnessed in any American city. In justice to the heroes of the demonstration it should be said that few of them participated in the night's celebration. Indeed, they seemed to be almost forgotten In the general desire to take advantage of the opportunity of unbridled debauch and the defiance of all law. order and decency. More than a thousand persons were treated by the ambulance corps, although in most cases the injuries were not serious. There were, however, many cases of serious injuries, and it is not unlikely that there will be other deaths. Two men fell from a scaffold on a building in Finsbury circus, and both were killed. Comment of the Press. LONDON, Oct. JO. The morning papers comment with the greatest satisfaction upon yesterday's display of patriotic . enthusiasm. All express the utmost regret for the reprehensible scenes which, as one Journal puts it, "threaten to lower the reputation of England In the eyes of foreigners and to earn for the British people the uneviablo character of taking their pleasures brutally rather than sadly." Most of the papers throw the chief blamo upon the authorities for their failure to anticipate what occurred with a sufficient force of police and above all for their failure to bring the police upon'the scene early enough to close the side streets to traffic. Others, like the Dally Mall, frankly deprecate rowdyism and drunkenness and ask whether such demonstrations is "hooliganism" or patriotism. The Standard says: "It is monstrous that a young girl cannot see bunting or illuminations unless she agrees to submit to tho rudeness of any chance comer. Possibly most people come out for fun and go home sober; but the margin of brutality is conspicuous enough." DEATH OF A PRINCE. (CONCLUDED. FROM FIRST PAGE.) rived, in Trieste, Austria.

A Bltthop Condemna Trnsta. CHICAGO, Oct. 29. In a speech at the meeting of the- Chicago Teachers' Federation, Bishop Spalding, the Roman Catholic diocesan of Peoria, predicted that the time would come when all born American citizens would become serfs to the trusts, tinless a halt was called. Continuing, Bishop Spalding said: "We Americans are gradually coming to that condition in which we shall be Incapable of moral indignation. We are coming to measure everything by financial guages or profit and loss. We are beginning to think that nothing which is legal can be a crime. And j et we know, or should know, as every cultivated man knows, that the worst crimes of history have been legal crimes. The torture of fighting men to make a Roman holiday, the crimes of the inquisition, the robbery of God's poor to make revenue for kings, all crimes of the most pronounced character, were yet legal. We are coming to an acceptation of the belief that this is not longer a government of the people, for the people and by the people, but rather a government of trusts, by the trusts and for the trusts. We are told that the corporation has no' soul. It may be so. But the trust has a soul, and it is the soul of the Foraker Dlncnanea Prosperity. GRAND RAPIDS.

Ordinarily the note ".dUri desk would be the last place where ?urh fraud would be looked fot. It would be idle to speculate on the detail? before they are actually enclosed.
