PV8 Vrt ,-, LANCASTER DAILY INTELLIGENOER FBIDAY OCTOBER 24 1884. 13? wv :- BStT e"J 6 lancasfe: InteUfgcnrcr. FRIDAY EVENING OCT., 24, 1964, H!s Fees In Hit l'arlj-. Hem discussion ia being litul In the newspapers as te the vigor with wliich Blaine is being supported by tlte Came Came eon element in Pennsylvania, the Cenk- Ufi in New Yerk, and by the friends of ether leading Republican politicians and statesmen tn the sever.il state?, who bave net been Mr. Blaine's friends and well wishers in the past. Mr. Blaine has been an aggressive man all his life, and has been eminently distinguished for the zeal with which he has sought te push the fortunes of Mr. Blaine. lie has come in collision with a great many of the strong men of his party and no one doubts their personal dlslike of him. The debatable question is whether they will permit their hostility te him te quiet ineir desire ler their party's success and te what extent it will affect their efforts in its behalf. Comparatively few of these men have openly declared against him, and it the Republican party will bave the hearty support of the rest, it may hope for success ; but If there really exists a belief among Blaine's enemies in his party that their welfare will be promoted by his defeat he will have no chance of election. This question will only be settled by the election. Upen the surface Blaine's personal enemies appear as his political friends and supporters. It is true that they are net manifesting any great en thusiasm in his behalf, but they de net hppearte be seeking te interfere with the manifestation of enthusiasm by the clans they have led. In Pennsylvania the great body of the Republican party has trained under the leadership of Cam cren and his friends ; and the great body of the Republicans of the state appear te-day te be heartily for Blaine Ne doubt the situation is mainly beyond the control of the Cameren leaders, and they feel that they would break themselves te try te stem it ; se they go with it. But they knew very well that it will Isj a cold day for them when Blaine is elected and it is quite contrary te their nature tbat they should hope for any such re suit. That Blaine's defeat would net be mourned by a large number of Pennsyl vania Republican politicians may fairly be assumed. That they will make any extraordinary effort te elect him, or go a step beyond the measure of support that is demanded by the appearance of bup pert they desire te keep up, may be taken for granted. They will go along with the boys and hurrah with them and be as easy as te the result, as was the old woman in her husband's light with the bear. At Conkling's house in New Yerk many of his friend3 de net even care te Keep up a semblance of support or the Republican national ticket. In New Yerk, indeed, there is leas of dls simulation of the dislike te Blaine than In Pennsylvania, where there is a mere hide bound Republican party. Here the Independent Republicans were these who revolted against the Cameren dic tation te the party, and new that the) are in line with their candidate for president, the old regulars, who still expect te control the state political machine, keep step with them te that end. As New Yerk is the great battle ground, the Republican feeling tlieie is or mere Interest than in Pennsylvania, and the indications of revolt from Blaine In the Umpire state are particu larly distressing te him and amply warrant his recall te that field of labor , in which, however, he can de little by his personal presence, as the hostility is personal te him, and a man cannot de much te mollify his fees in thrusting his presence upon them. IheJi'ew llcpiibllcin Mete. When the Republican campaign was ilrst inaugurated there was a solid move all along the line in two directions. The ilrst wa3 the assertion that the Republi can candidate was the representative of a vigorous foreign policy. The second was a united effort te force upon the Democracy the tariff Iesue. Beth moves have resulted in failures mostiuglerious. The ilrst melted away like mist before the sun as seen as Blaine's coward!) neglect of the Irish suspects and his oQicieus meddling in the Peru Chili trouble were shown up. It was dropped with the celerity that marks the descent of a hoc brick taken in the hand uu suspectiugly. Then order were given out te hammer away at the taiiir. Statistics showing enormous progress in the ceuutry under Republican rule were compiled and the stump was filled with orators, claiming untold benefits con ferred by the Republican party en the werklngman. But a hole was prickrd In this bubble by the ternble business stagnation prevailing everywhere. As Gen. Negley appealingly said te Oliver Bre3, & Phillips, of Pittsburg", when a short time age they announced a redue tien of twelve and one half per cent, in the wages of their men, " It Is hard te preach the beauties of protection wi'h laboring men rer.eiviug only os cents a day." These two lines of attack have new been abandoned. The vole in Ohie con cluslvely proved that the tariff was net in Issue, aud the Republican managers have been casting about for some new device te draw attention fiem the glaring unfitness of their candidate. They consider that they have discovered it in the "bloody shirt," which ilr. Blalue lias been frantically waving for the last few days in Indlaua. This last mode of attack Is deemed te be the meat miserable failure of the three. Aud it should be. Iu no ether speech se well as that at Terre Haute, Indiana, does lr. Blalue show what n dangerous demagogue he is. He would array for his own selfish purposes a solid North against a solid Seuth. Llateu te hew he attempls te fire the bleed of his hearers against the thousands of AinerN can citizens who live below Masen and Dixen's line : Tie old Seuth repiejents the spirit of rebilllen arid cherishes seutimeuta of sul len discontent, is full of bitter repreaches galrut theso who triumphed in the war for the Uuloe, regards negre suffrage with abhorrence, maintains the white line, and U ready te use whatever uraeuut of Intim IcUtien or violcueo may boeemo noeosaary te proserve its own political and personal mastery in the Seuth. It is unquestion ably dominant in nil the old slave states and 1 in open aud 'avowed affiliation with the Democratle party iu tbe North. It constitutes thrr fourths of the cflective Democratic strength lu the nation, and in the cveut of n Democratle triumph would be in absolute and undisputed control of the government." It is the wish that is father te the thought that nerves Mr. Blaine te make these utterances of the cewnrdly dema gogue. Though lie skulked the war himself, he proposes te make It useful te his purpose. The manhood of the country demands his defeat. Tun "bloody" shirt boemoraug will be fearful in Its recoil. Bulva LocKWeoi) has net defined her- self en the absorbing Issue of Mether Uubbards. ihe present chill Oateber evening woatuer knocks the enthusiasm out of parading iu campaign equlpments. Anr.n November 4, Blalne will seek tbe political haven whoie the kicked cease from troubling and the weary are at rest, niu harmless train wreekers who travel in the van of the Rcpublyan uatleunl candidates are beheved te be iu the enjoyment of geed salaries. If Republicans deslre te be " magnet lzed" in proper fashion, let them read Bcccher's breizy indersement of Cleve laud en the first page. V HEN air.

The Carlisle Herald, of this week, says : "A badly dressed man, giving his name as Tem Ferd, alias Tem Quigley, and aged about 1)0 years, alighted from a Western beuud train in this place about six woeks age, aud obtained employment with Mr. Suffall, the clgarmakcr. He worked hard during the week but as seen as Sunday would oemo around he would get en a spree. While here he get acquainted with a man at the Flerenco heuse, and the two ravelled together a great deal, getting ou sprees frequently. During this time Ferd's oempanion received several letters from apolicemon iu Lancastar. statins that a man by the name of Ferd was wantt d tuore who belonged te tbe Buzzard gang. One night, the early part of week befere last, tue two get ou a flrst-elass drunk, during whieh time the lottera in question were brought forth, and Ferd, who cannot read, was smart enough te get them ; and, taking them te a confi dential frlend who could read, he was told what they contained, wheu he thought it best te skip, se he left this place the fel lowing Sunday for parts unknown. Had tbe authorities at Laueaster oemmunica ted the news te our pollea hore that sueh a man was wanted there, instead ei this individual, he would have beeu captured without a doubt. This perhaps will learn them a lessen." The description of the man tallies with that of Paul Qalley, a noted thief of this elty, who escaped with the Buzzards and I etheiR while undergoing a sentonce of llve years.
