THE CAMPAIGN IN OHIO.
A TRIANGULAR TO THE VICTORS BE-
LONG THE SPOILS FIGHT.
A Review of the Field-—MoKinley and
Campbell About Equally
Handicapped.
CnciatUTTi, O., Aug. 12.-[Correapond-
Cnco]—The democrat*! and republicans have
full state tickets in the Held, and the triangu-
lar fight for the govornship has been inaugu-
rated by the nomination of a complete state
ticket by the people's party. The contest this
year will be one of unusual significance. Ohio
has always been a stato of great political ac-
tivity and tickle in its choice. Since the days
of Torn Corwin and the Tippecanoe contest
the voters have vacillated and the state has
had democratic governors, legislators and sen-
ators, aud the asceudency of congressmen,
though it is classed as a republican state. Both
parties here believe in spoils, or more prop-
erly, that the victor should enjoy the fruits of
their victory.
There never has been any sympathy hero
for mugwumpery. There is not in the state a
prominent apostle of that system of disposing
of office unless it is General John Beatty, who
is more of a republican "kicker" after per-
sonal defeat for office than a gilt edged re-
former of the abuse of appointments. The
general will have the co-operation of his
brother, Major Beatty, a banker in the north-
ern part of the state, heretofore a prominent
republicau with a good army record, which is
considered of somo advantage in this section.
He claims to have never bolted a republican
nominee, but declares that "he can not sup-
port McKinley and his high tariff tax bill.
There is no necessity for a high tariff now,"
he says. "I regard McKinley as a man of
very ordinary abilities as a statesman. I am
not a man of tho McKinley school of politics."
There being considerable dissatisfaction in
the two old parties over their gubernatorial
nominations, and the stato being uncertain in
off years, there is much speculation as to tho
effect the people's party will have in the com-
ing campaign. No one believes that they
will pull Ohio into line with "bleeding" Kan-
sas. Politically tho stato is peculiarly con-
structed. Tho northern part was peopled
mostly by New Englanders. They were puri-
tanically rigid in their politics and in the years
since there has been but little change. Tho
central and southern part was settled largely
by Virginians. Before Ohio was organized
this section was a part of Virginia and was
known on the maps as tho "Virginia Military
District." The descendants of these two stocks
have remained largely truo to the faith of their
ancestor*, and the people's or alliance party
will find it difficult to abstract much follow-
ing from either. Tho stato has large manu-
facturing and mining interests, and those who
are not protectionists are usually free traders.
A glance at what is called tho now political
revolution will show that it has been most suc-
cessful in the purely agricultural states and
not in those where manufacturing and agri-
culture are equally important. Only tho ultra
enthusiasts of this third party claim that they
will carry the state or legislature. They aro
only an element making still more doubtful
an uncertain contest. As has been their his-
tory in tho west, they aro claiming every-
thing.
Tho eastern and middlo states will not bo
a prolific field for the growth of this new
party. It must flourish in the west if any-
where. At their convention at Springfield last
week their prominent leaders formerly occu-
pied the same positions in tho greenback, pro-
week their prominent leaders formerly occu-
{>ied the same positions in tho greenback, pro-
nation, labor and other parties that have
lived, flourished and died in Ohio, reinforced
by county school teachers, doctors and DIMOh-
ers who have been developed through the alli-
ance. The "horny handed sons of toil" were
there to furnish the enthusiasm and the aj>-
plaoae, bat the ohronlo or—ton of new par-
ties, looking for new office, walked off with
everything. Their platform was to bid for all
tho dissatisfied elements, except tho prohibi-
tionists. They did not want to offend this
class, so they referred this question to the na-
tional organization.
It is predicted that they will draw about
equally from the two old parties, but it is be-
lieved that tho plank wherein they demand the
right to vote of all, "irrespective of sex or
color," will MOM to come bark into the party
all who have democratic blood in their veins.
Mr. Cobb, one of their candidates for gov-
ernor, said "the platform was somewhat radi-
cal and a littlo stronger than he ejected to
hear."
No one considers that either Campbell or
McKinley desires to become governor with tho
object of sitting up at Columbus two yoars in
tho gubernatorial chair. The average Ohio
politician of both parties has tho "presidential
bee buzzing" and considers that tho mantle of
the "mother of presidents" has descended
unto thorn, and if this can bo made ft pivotal
stato other of her sons than Hayes and Gar-
field may become chief magistrates. Tho two
gubernatorial aspirants aro making this con-
test for the prosiilm.-y of L893,tlld if not lin n,
some other year. W ith such ^takes and two
of tho most skillful politicians in the union to
do the playing, tho campaign will bo adroitly
managed anu interesting. They arc al>out
equally handicapped. Campbell is weighted
with tho Hamilton county "row." He is un-
derstood to be a man of wealth, with abund-
ance of tho "sinews of war," and may bo ablo
by his magnetism to rcduco the Cincinnati
Bcratchers to a very small number. He is
strong in tho Inferior and rural dtttricta. And
may, as ho lias always heretofore in all his
races, secure enough republican votes to off-
get any disaffection In his party. None knows
better than Jim Campbell, as he is called here,
thfl importance of winning in this context.
Victory will make him a national character.
Ho is an ablo campaigner, a slick |>olitician
and a hustler, and if he can be re-elected gov-
ernor, may, as tho democratic party is just
now scanning tho horizon for a winner, bo
made the standard bearer for 1892.
McKinley of tariff lull reputation is an ablo
speaker and personally popular. There is a
probability that tho senatorial conflict which
is now fiercely raging between Foraker and
Sherman will weaken him. Tho republican
bosses of this city admit that unless they can
get it out of tho campaign he will probably be
defeated. It is creating strifo and bitterness
Jn their ranks. When McKinley was nomi-
nated it was claimed by the republicans that
ho would be elected by 25,000 majority. This
roseate hue has fadod. and if they can pull
him through thoy will bo joyful. McKinley
claims that his eye is not on tho presidency,
but his friends whisper that if Blaine declines
and Harrison's friends k u the oonvention
they can lead iiim out as a dark horse. How-
ever, as ho l* not an aged man they think if
his star does not wano ho will keep. The dem-
ocrats are after him, and unless tlio monopo-
lies of which he is so able a champion raiso a
republican corruption fund, are sanguine they
will defeat him. It will require boodle to give
tiirn a big majority.
There is not much prospect of tho democrats
carrying tho next legislature. Tho republican
secretary of state hold tho balance of power
and gerrymandered tho legislative districts in
tho interest of the republicans. The third
party claim they will hold the balanco of
power. Their campaign cry is "anything to
beat John Sherman," but as Sherman is one
of those statesmen who has accumulated a
largo fortune on a small salary, it is intimated
that their cry is a ruso and that they are work-
ing in tho interests of the republicans for tho
pay there is in it. There is the color of truth
in this, as the third party or alliance is making
senatorial and representative nominations and
doing Its hardest work in the democratic dis-
tricts and counties against its legislative nomi-
CtlllrcnCrif.r Pi tctcr's Cast orla
nees. If they would direct their work against
the republicans by cooperating with the dem-
ocrats iu the close or doubtful republican dis-
tricts the legislature could be carried against
the republicans. The only hope of a demo-»
eratic legislature is in the democrats again
electing the democratic ticket iu this city.
THE BEEMUDA ALLIANCE.
Large and Prosperous Community Talks
Right Out.
Gainesville, Tex., Aug. 13.—Bermuda alli-
ance No. 4S1 of Cooke county, located in the
Era community, one of the largest aud most
prosi>crous communities in the county, and
the leading sub-alliance in the county, at a
regular meeting a few days ago unanimously
adopted a declaration of principles which has
caused quite a flutter in that wing of the local
alliance aud labor element which has been en-
deavoring to persuade tho order hero and else-
where to adopt tho Bub-treasury scheme as one
of the principal teuets of the order aud to
hereafter affiliate with tho third party. Hero
is tho declaration:
Wo believe that tho necessity for a farmers'
organization for their elevation socially,
morally and financially is so patent that tho
most careless and unobservant recognize it.
We believe such an organization properly
conducted will pay a handsome dividend on all
time, talent and money expended.
We believe an organization of farmers se-
cretly bound together to promulgate aud ad-
vance tho interest of any political party is
dangerous to good society and American lib-
erty.
Wo believe the assurance given to all who
come to the alliance altar for instruction,
wherein their religious and i>olitieal views aro
not to l>o interfered with, is the only bond of
union that will prove successful and perpetu-
ate the organization.
We believe u cunningly devised scheme has
been laid to commit the alliance to the sup-
port of a political party.
For the faith within us we submit the fol-
lowing: Soon after the adoption of the Ocala
demands wherein the alliance was pledged to
support no man for office unless he subscribed
thereto, a new political party was brought
into existence with the Ocala demands as u
part of their platform, making sure of alliance
votes. New party speakers aro traveling the
country ostensibly in the interest of the alli-
ance, yet thoy never forget to put in a word
for the "people's party." Tho president of
the national organization forbids public criti-
cism of t he laws of the order, the ()eala de-
mands being a part of them. Anti-sub-
treasui7 men who have courage to express
their views are regarded as unfaithful to tho
order nnd traitors to the cause. It follows
then that to be a true alliance member you
must support the platform of the "people's
party" and espouse the cause of its candidates.
Wo believe the harmonious action between
two great bodies is only the working of an un-
seen power with a controlling influence on
both bodies.
In view of this fact Bermuda alliance asserts
her right to denounce suit-treasury ism, land
loan schemes, government ownership of trans-
I>ortation lines, etc., or any ruling from otti-
eials that conflicts with the sacred promises at
the order's altar.
We offer something better. Return and fol-
low the original purpoeea of the order, shun
the credit and mortgage system, transact your
own business through co-operative channels,
become familiar with all things that affect
your interest, and let your knowledge bo
wielded for good. Strive to be indeisMident
and quit whining for a government teat. Less
resoluting and visionary schemes, more good
sense and practical business methods.
Elgin News.
Elgin, Tex., Aug. 14.—Cards of invitation
by Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Murphy, compliment-
ary to Miss Grace Handy of Galveston,
brought together the fair and young of the city
to do honor to their lovely and accomplished
guest. The evening was spent most delight-
fully in music and conversation, closing with
elegant ref rcshments, consisting of ices, etc.
The occasion was one of the most enjoyable
that has ever been extended to Elgin society.
Whilo the farmers aro busily engaged pick-
ing their cotton, tlie movement to market is
very slow owing to the low prices.
There have been no rains for two months,
but there is yet a prospect for great improve-
ment should this section bo blessed with a
shower.
The street grading machine has arrived and
Elgin will soon assume metropolitan airs. El-
gin has reason to be satisfied with her futuro
prospects.
A Fool and a Gun.
Colorado, Tex., Aug. 14.—Tho unloaded
gun came very near getting another victim
here to-day in the person of W. G. Potts, em-
ployed in a store. A customer was examining
a 82-caliber Winchester in tho front of the
the store. Taking aim at the partition he
pulled the trigger, no ono supposing that a
cartridge was in tho gun. To his surprise the
gun was discharged, tlx- ball piffing through
a board partition, striking Mr. l'otts just in
front of too l- ft ear, gtiiug the lawbono and
coming out near tho mouth, and imbedding
itself in the wall. The wound is very painful,
though not serious. It was a close call.
Wallisville Notes.
Wallisville, Tex., Aug. 14.—Grass worms
are destroying tho grass throughout this sec-
tion, but no cottou worms to date. Cotton is
fine and in good condition, but the crop is
very light. Picking has l>egun in earnest.
Corn is almost au entire failuro on account
of tho spring drouth.
Phil C. Smith, who shot and killed Dick
Mavcs at this place on tho UUth of July last,
will be tried before Judge HightowoV under
habeas corpus next Tuesday at Liberty.
llain Badly Needed.
Oak Formt, Tex., Aug. 12.—No rain sinco
tho 8th of June worth mentioning. Corp will
mako about twenty bushels per acre. Cotton
will make probably one bale to five acres
of ground planted. Unless rain falls by the
15th of the month there will be no chance for
a fall crop. One-half of tho present crop has
opened and is being rapidly gathered.

THE PROSPECTS ARE ROSY
IN THE GRAIN STATES, EUT OLGUDY
IN THE COTTON ONES.
R. G. Dun & CJo.'s Review of the Week's
Business—Au Upward Tendency
in All Food Products.
New Yopic, Aug. 14.—The prohibition of tho
exports of ryo by Russia, because of tho otli-
cial declaration that famine is impending, has
suddenly affected the grain markets of tho
whole world. Russia usually exports al>out
60,000,000 bushels of rye, and men reason that
other grain in large quantities will be required.
Not enough attention is paid to tho fact that
European consumption may be reduced by
high prices, and speculation goes on the theory
that every i»erson must have so many bushels
or there will be starvation. Before tho year is
over this uotion will probably be corrected.
Wheat rose 8}% cents on moderate sales, and a
heavy operator at Chicago went down. Corn
rose cents and oats cents, with small
sales.
Crop prospects grow brighter every day, and
with tho assurance that tho country will not
only have enormous supplies of grain but a
market for it at good prices, business is im-
proving throughout tl^e north. Tho move-
ment begins close to the farms. Country mer-
chants aro buying more freely and their pur-
chases are felt by wholesalers and manufact-
urers.
At St. Louis business is increasing in almost
all lines, and at Kansas City the cattle and
packing trades are light and wheat not mov-
ing freely, but the genccal trade is improving
and healthy. The south is in a very different
condition. The great surplus of cottou last
year and the prospect of an equally large crop
this year, threatens a lower price than pro-
ducers can stand, and trade and collections aro
poor in that section. There is a distinct im-
provement in the demand for cotton goods,
which the mills can now produce with a profit
at lower prices than ever, but manufacturers
aro much embarrassed by tho comparative
scantiness of orders for the future.
The monetary uncertainty oiwrates to pre-
vent large commitments in advance. The ad-
vance in prices during the last week has aver-
aged nearly 2 per cent on all commodities.
The money market here continues easy on call,
and commercial paper is rather more saleable
hero and in other eastern cities, but there is
still a vague sense of uneasiness.
The foreign trade continues to improve, for
while imports decline largely, exports for tho
two weeks of August have exceeded by nearly
I'.' | « r cent those of the corresponding week
last year. If Europe is ablo to send cash for
all the food it will require this year it is prob-
able that this country will not lack money
long.
The business failures occurring throughout
the country during the last seven days number
for the United States and Canada, 227, as
compared with a total of 231 last week. For
the corresponding week of last year tho fig-
ures were 1^7.
Perdue and Imboden.
Rusk, Tex., Aug. 14.—j. M. Perdue, state
alliance lecturer for Teias, delivered an ad-
dress to a large audience at this place to-day,
advocating the sub-treasury plan. His speech
was a rehash of all tho speeches made by tho
advoeateri of tins idea* Mr. iVnlue is a tlnent.
and plausible speaker, and his si>eech was well
jpeeived by a good many of tho alliance
people.
\\. M. Imboden, editor of tho Cherokee
Herald, replied to Mr. Perdue in a forcible
and logical speech, completely demolishing
the arguments advanced and exposing the fal-
lacy of the sub-treasury vision.
NEGRO EMIGRATIONISTS
Call for a Convention at Marshall to Take
Action.
Mahshat.l, Tex., Aug. 14.—Tho following
has been issued to the negro emigrationisU:
You are requested to meet in eonvention nt
Marshall, Tex., Thursday, August 27,1891, at
11 o'clock a. ui. to take counsel and advice for
the host plan of emigration and such other
matters as we may think best for tho uegro
people of Harrison, Panola, Marion, Smith.
Upshur, Gregg, Rusk and Shelby counties and
all others that are friend* to the eall.
To the discouraged we have hut one remark
to make: Join with us, and try by one united
effort to bettor our condition, financially,
morally, politically and socially, aud aid each
other to get lands and homes whore we may
not have to give all we make to stay on a
plantation, and at tho end of the year havo
nothing but a distressed wife, half fed, poorly
clothed children, with a poor aud sorrowing
father.
I therefore, as president of the Negro Emi-
gration club No. 1 of Marshall, Tex., appeal
to tho negro people of tho above named coun-
ties to convene in convention at U. 13. F. hall,
Marshall, on the above named day. Women
will be admitted. Appointment for Harrison
county, two delegates from each voting pre-
cinct and one from every benevolent or secret
negro society, all other counties to send dele-
gates to suit themselves. Each delegate shall
Ik? accompanied with a certificate and $'J, to
bo paid to the president or chairman, before
being allowed to vote in said convention.

La Grange Locals.
La Grange, Tex., Aug. 11.—The contract
for furnishing tho now courthouse was let
to-day for a little over $7000. The furnishing
of the oftlces was awarded to Barnard Co. of
St. Louis, and the furnishing of tho vaults to
the Trenton Metallic Manufacturing com-
pany of Jamestown, N. Y.
Cotton is coming in at the rate of 125 bales
per day. There is no doubt but that the crops
of this section have suffered very much from
the drouth the last throe weeks, and that farm-
ers will not mako a larger crop than last year.
Mexican Dollars lor China.
Laredo, Tex., Aug. 14.—A shipment of 110,-
000 Mexicau eoiu dollars left here this morn-
ing by express, consigned to the Anglo-Cali-
