The long and expensive haul from the Mississippi river acrow the plains and over the Sierra Nevada cuts off ail possibil- ity of becoming a manufacturing state—as Con- necticut and Massachusetts have done without tron and coul even to the extent of supplying the wants of the Pacific coust.

At least this is what the Cleveland organs and politicians have | impressed upon his mind, aud it has had its | effect. Whatever the facts of the tariff jem may | be, the average Californian has made to eee that nearly everything he buys is Panne | by the republican tariff. Iron and 1, glass ware, hardware, woolen goods, tin plate, furni- ture, farming, tools, &c., are among the chief items in list. On the other hand California produces only two things which are -. protected ana which cannot be roduced elsewhere in’ the — United ‘tates. There are raisins and prunes, and are, | therefore, the only two articles on which Cali- | fornia exclusively enjoys the benefits of protec- tion. Here again the democratic pross has not failed to make the most of its opportunity, and it has repeated day after day and week after week that #0 far as the benefits of » high tariff between citizens and localities are concerned this coast is getting very much the worst of the bargain. All this savors of "the industrial rather than | the political, but it is the only explanation of the undeniable fact that the Harrison adminia- tration has not popular in California and of a growing feeling that there is enough commercial discontent to give the state to Cleveland. In fact, Californians do not indulge f mach purely political feeling. They realize that they are not on the inside with either party. They feel that, politically, their state is still an outlying province whose existence is not essential to the happiness of either Mr. Carter or Mr. Harrity. But few crumbs of patronage fail to California in any event. Mr. Cleveland did not give the coast any more |than he was obliged to when he was in the White House, and President Harrison | has drawn the line after appointing a Califor- | nian minister to Japan, Neither of the candi- dates inspires any personal enthusinem in Cali- fornia, and so it may be understood how the campaign narrows itself down ton cold basis of commercial and industrial conditions, The people are restites and desire a change for the eof change anda chance to experiment | with the free trade theories of Miils, Curlisle, | Shively, Harter and Springer. PROGRESS OF TARIFF REFORM. ‘That this estimate of the situation is accurate is proved by the fact that the democratic press of San Francisco is teeming with interviews ob- | tained from the local Greehams and McVeaghs, | who “regret the necessity of severing lifelong | political ties,” &c., but who feel it incumbent | upon them to vote for “tariff reform in the best | interests of the country.” A score or more of | the leading merchants and business men in San Francisco have expressed themselves to that effect, while the republican newspapers have | not been able to oppose the storm by recording a single disaffection from the democratic ranks. So much for signs. On the other band the republican party in | ix state has the help of the Southern Pucitic | | Railroad Company, which has been the con-| trolling influence ‘in politics, buriness and almost eversthing else for twenty-five years, C. P. Huntingtem ix on the ground and tells | everybody he is here to keep bis corporation | | out of politics, but the Southern Pacific is very | | much in politics in spite of Mr. Huntington's interviews with the reporters. Senator Stan- ford is also on hix way from New York and the Senator always takes a lively interest in polities | without any of Huntington's nonsense about it. | Qne unfortunate circumstance for the repub- jieans in California is the candidacy of M. H. De Young for the Uriited States Senate. Mr. De Young is the proprietor of the San Fran- |ciseo Chronicle, one of the lnrgest and most | successful newspapers in the west. He is a | gentleman who receives distinguished consid- | eration when he visits Washington, and is Cal- ifornia’s world’s fair commissioner. Mr. De | Young, however, is more popular abroad than | he is at home, and if it transpires that the state | legislature is to be packed in his interest many | republicans will bolt their ticket. For many years the (Chronicle made bitter | | warfare upon the Southern Pacific Railroad Company, but now its proprietor has been com- | | pelled to make peace with the big corporation | | to further ilroad republicans in Cali- | n. Pacific seems to have ac- | cepted him—at rate Mr. Huntington has | | ordered “handamff”—and the present appear- | ances are that Mr. De Young has a very good ciwnce to gratify.his ambition and go to the | Senate. can candidates for the legislature reveals the fact that “if clected they will feel bound to stand by the republican candidate,” &c. Mr. Felton bas not displeased his con ticularly, but he is not a man of great political force, and there is a strong fight against him. | IX THE CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICTS. | Geary, Representative from the first district, has been exactly the sort of Congressman that most Californians profess to want. His work | im the interest of Chinese exclusion has pléased | men of all parites on the coast, but his district has been so gerrymandered that it is doubtf if he will be re-clecied. | In the second district Caminetti hns a hard | row to hoe. His constituents include both | farmers in the valley andmanyhy draulic miners inthe mountains. Cuminetti was faithfal to his | pledges to the-miners and did his best to induce | the government to help the miners and settle | the debris problem by legislation. Conse- quently he will lose democratic votes among the farmers and gain republican votes among the miners, who are now in the mfnority. The district is a close one at best, and it is possible | that the little Italian will be beaten by a new Prman, John 1 vis of Calaveras (with the accent on the e). There are no mew complications | in the other four districts, which are all repre sented by republicans. THE POPULIST. When Gen. Weaver was in San Francisco | some weeks ago there was great enthusiasm among the populists, and farmers came from all parts of the state to hear him speak in San Francisco. They made a strong showing at that time in the interior and claimed. several of | the fifty-three counties, but they have been Inboring under disadvantages and the move- | ment seems to be waning as the election day approaches. Atany rate they do not worry the state committees of the old parties to any | great extent, for it is thought that they are | drawing about equally from both republicans and democrats. “Nhe people's party is strong- | ext in Ventura county and the southern part -of | the state. They may carry Ventnra and one | or two other counties. Something depends | upon the extent to which the Farmers’ Alliance votes for Weaver, and as to that none of the politicians seem to have any accurate notion. ‘The hostility of the people's party to De Young | may help Felton or ex-Gov. Perkins, who is | also a candidate for the Senate. It is remarked on every hand that Californians never before manifested less real interest in a presidential election, ‘There is just as. little rass banding as good form in polities, will per- mit, and the average San Franciscan if actually | more worried about his local thunicipal ticket | than he ix about the presidential contest. 80 | far the state central committees have expended | small xums ot money compared with former | years and everything is done in a per- jfanetory sort of way that would drive leven a Philadelphia politician to the verge of Iunacy and a Tammany Hall, worker jcleak into an asylum.

Estee of Napa and Stephen M. White of Los Angeles, who are in- iging in a series of joint debates in the larger cities throughout the state. Mr. White, by the way, is the man most likely to be the demo- | eratic candidate for the Senate. He is a coms paratively young man who has done respect- ably well as a lawyer, and the political timber in him is of fairly good quality. ‘OMPLICATED SITUATION IN NEVADA, Tn Nevada the political situation is decidedly complicated.

The People’s Party in the State Has Prac- tleally Gone to Pieces. Correspondence of The Eventne Star. Bramrnomam, Aua., Oct. 20, 1892. The people's party in Alabama has practi- cally gone. to pieces. Disorganization eet in the day the news of the election in Georgia came. It has been growing and spreading ever since. Ths announcement came today that John M. Davis, nominee of the party for Congress in the trigt, had thrown up the sponge and T. M. Barbour ind been put up in his place. Col. Carlisle, who was put up by the people's party against Col. Oates in the third congres- sional district, has comé down and says now that he will support Cleveland and Oates. Nearly every day a people's party man of prom- ingnce comes over to the democracy. ¢ leaders of the populista have been very quiet of late, all of them having left the stump excepta few. Their cause is undoubtedly a failure, as the facts show. Recent news from the west of disorgantzation in the party in that section has had a d effect upon the leaders in the state. fanning, state sec- retary of the third party, who until a week ago was making « specch for Weaver nearly every dey, issilent now. He still stands by his party, Dut lack of enthusiaam bas caused him to stop making epeechos for the present at least. "The Kolb forces asa political Yactor have been going to pieces eer, since Gov. Jones defeated Kolb on August 1 Inst: More than half of the followers of Kolb, as i kuown, have come back to the democratic’ ranks for Cleve- land. The others have gone with the third party or republican, and many of them, too, are coming back to democracy every day. The people's party leaders have practically abandoned the fight for representation at. the polls oa election day, out of which the Bullock county arrests grew a week ago. In the Bul- lock county case they have brought mandamus proceedings, but elsewhere they have given up the fight for such representation. The fusion ticket is naturally stronger than ki the support of the people's party, some of the Kolbites and. the ently Foptblicans, Bat even the nominees on this ticket are not mak- ing as aggressive a campaign now as they were two weeks ago. JTEVENSON’S VISIT. Tho visit of Gen. Adlai E. Stevenson, demo- cratic nominee for Vice President, to Alabama, the leaders say, did great good for the demo- cratic party, Stevenson was in Alabama only three days, but during that time he made six speeches, one at Opelika, oné at Montgomery, two in Pirmingham, one at Decatur and at Hunt's Mills. “From the time Stevenson crossed the state line into Alabama from Miseissippi on | Sunday until he put his foot on Tennessee soil Wednesday night he received one continued ovation. At every little town along the rail- roads on which he traveled great crowds had gathered to do him honor. At most of these places he made short talks to the people and held impromptu receptions, At Dpdite a tremendous ‘crowd ‘from cast Alabama and west Georgia greeted him. The greatest enthusiasm prevailed. The town was faily decorated and fully 10,000 people turned out to hear bia. In his speech Stevenson lid ticular stress on the probable effects of the force bill in Alabama if said bill became a law. He appealed to the men who had strayed off from the party to return to the party of their fathers and help fight the measure which means | the placing in power of the men who robbed Alabama twenty All his Alabam: and the democratic leaders say he did much good among the Kolbites and bolters. This is already dentonstrated by such men as Col. Car- lisle of Barbour, Capt. Kyle of Lee and others | leaving the third party and coming back to democracy At Birmingham on Tuesday the greatest po- al celebration ever witnessed in Alabama’s youngest and largest city took place. Steven- son and the leaders of the party to the number of about thirty paraded the strects in carriages, followed by hundreds of members of visiting democratic clubs and citizens. At the fair grounds he addressed fully 15,000 people, speak- ing for about an hour. His speech was on the same line ax that delivered in Opelika and was well received. On Tuesday night Stevenson spoke before organized labor's Cleveland and Stevenson Cli in Birmingham, over 1,300 working men being present. “He spoke to them about the re- sults Of the McKinley tariff and the force bill. Great enthusiasm prevailed and many new members were added to the club's roll. The working men all over Alabama turned out to hear Stevenson and seemed well pleared. On Wednesday Gen. Stevenson addressed about 5,000 people at Decatur, including over 1.500 shop men and a large number of alliance men. That night he concluded his Alxbama | campaign at Huntsville, where he addressed | another large crowd. Chairman Shelley and_the other democratic leaders are well pleased at Gen, Stevenson's reception in Alabama, and they say he has dene mnch good work toward healing the breach in the Alabama democracy. His speeches were ull directed along that line. While all this has been going on the demo- crats have had Congressmen Moses and Living- ston of Georgia as wellas a number of other orators of prominence on the stump in the rural districts, Senator Pugh will be bere from Washington in a few days to enter into the battle for his party. His throat is afflicted and he will hardly be able to do much in the way of speech making, but he will give the party lead- ers the benefit of his council aud presence. It looks more every day ag if Cleveland will carry Alabama and that t! democrats il elect at least seven or eight out of nine Con- gressmen. ‘The fourth district, where Robbins, democrat, is running against Craig, republican, is the most doubtful. The disorganization in the ranks of the people's party and the contin- ued division in the republican party, together with the vigorous campaign of the democrats, will win the fight for- the latter if conditions remain us they are now. ac LON NORTH CAROLINA, years ago. a Views of -the Situation by Representatives of the Three Parties, Correspondence cf The Fvening 4 RaLzron, N.

It should be borne in mind that the straightout republicans assert that the fusion republicans are not republicans atall, but have put themselves “beyond the pale” of the party, But here are ihe inter- views, in the exact language of the gentlemen interviewed, and the variance of views will at once attract the special attention of all readers. DEMOCRATIO VIEW. ‘ “There will be a véryfull vote, something be- twéén 300,000 and $10,000. The democrati hope for alarge resérve vote and also to secure a con- siderable colored vote. ‘They figure that to the democratic vote of 147,000 in 1888 thust be added 10 per cent for natural ‘i nd 15,- the.straight republican ticket, because it has | peeches wore along this line | trol the machinery for the purpose of dispens- ing that potronage. If the republicans get the majority in the state there would be too many fingers in the pie. There is mach personal quarrcling between the two republi- can factions, but no one save the them- selvescan tell whether the is sincere. The national and state democratic tickets will run close . Onrr, the nominee for gov- ernor, will get sonie votes from the third which will not go to Cleveland. Some thit ity men on the other hand, vote for ‘eaver who will not vote for Exum, that party's nominee for governor.” TRE REPUBLICAN VIEW. “North Carolina ts today as safe for Harrison sis Pennsylvania, unless one of two thipgs occurs. One of these things is a stampede to the third party upon that party's being able to show that it can carry the state; ‘he other ise counting out by democrats after the election. ‘The republicans are vecking to prevent the stampede, and during the past few days they have gained heart wonderfully; to such & ae , in fact, that there is now talk of the ird party's coming over to them.

The third party is more bitter toward the democrats than the re- | publicans are. Under no circumstances would the republicans go to the democrata. Republi- | can efforts now.are to divide the democratic | ote. They know they can hold the negroce | and they also know that far more third party } men are from the democratic then from the to- publican party.” THE FUSION REPURLIOAN VIEW. “Harrison is stronger in North Carolina than Furches, republican nominee for governor; Carr, the democratic nominee’ for governor, is stronger than Cleveland; Weaver is stronger than Exum, the third party nominee for gov- ernor. The contest fot the electoral vote is be- tween Harrison and Weaver. For governor the between Exum and Carr. Demo- cratic success depends entirely upon the num- ber of colored votes polled by Cleveland and Carr. Iam of opinion that Weaver will re- cleve the votes of 75,000 men who have hereto- fore voted the democratic ticket and the votes of 20,000 men who have heretofore voted the Tepublican ticket. Harrison will have 120,000 and Cleveland 90,000. Exum will have 65,000 former democratic votes and 45,000 republican votes; Carr will have 105,000 and Furchea 90 | 000. " The legislature will be composed of an anti-democratic majority in both houses. ‘The ‘democratic opposition expect to elect Cor men in the first, second, fourth, fifth and eighth, with a fighting chancein all the others.” — Prisoners Sentenced.

Incoming passengers on the ocean steamers saw a novel sight yebterday between what are known as the “Twin Lights,” near Sandy Hook, on the Navesink highland bluff. It was the lofty liberty pole that is to bear upon it here- after, always by daylight, the American flag at this point, the highest upon the Atlantic coast, and the first land séon from abroad ships enter» ing the harbor of New York. Col. W. R. Grif- fith and Capt. David H. Calkins were the com- mittee appointed for the purpose of setting the pole in place. This pole has been erected by contributions from members of the different patriotic societies in America, The flags upon it are given by the Lyceum League of America, an organtzation of patriotic young men. ‘One of the most significant features in con- nection with this flag is that upon the ani versary of the great peace events in the hi tory of the United States the thrown to the breeze will be the flag of the Human Freedom League, thet is, the stars and stripes in a bor- der of white, significant of 1 rather than war-like’ methods for the settling of in- ternational differences. ‘The dates already decided upon on which the peace flag will be floated are: October 21, Dis- covery day; September 3, date of the signing of the treaty of peace ending the war of the Amer- ican revolution; February 6, treaty of recogni- tion and assistance signed by France; Decem- ber 24, treaty closing the war of 1812; April 9, anniversary of the re-establishment of pence between the states: May 8, Alabama claim arbi- tration treaty; May 7, arbitrating the Bering January 1, ending of slavery in ‘lliam Penn's treaty of There will be elaborate ceremonies when the first flag is unfurled from the pole, the date for which will soon be announced. se. ¢ House Case.

The rs told of hav- ing seen men and women go to the plage. One < the officers said he saw a fifteen-year-old girl ere. Officer Crawford maid he was @ temperance’| man, but he drank some of the wine because he had todo so to make a case. He also said he hud been sent out there by his superior officer.
