Xew York State to Be Redistricteil, anil
Democrats Must Do It
A CEAXK IS HUSTLED FKOM THE HALL
?f EW YonK, Oct. 14. Tlie Democracy of
Kings county turned out in force this even
ing to aid in firing the first big Democratic
gan in the present State campaign in this
piTOtal county of Kings. Clermont rink
was crowded. At S o'clock Hon. "V. H.
Fnrcy entered, and after him came Grover
Cleveland. The audience simply went
'.rild. Cheer after cheer arose until fully
tiro minutes had expired.
"When Hr. Cleveland arose to speak, he
ras greeted with "Three cheers for our
E"xt President." Mr. Cleveland, after ac
knowledging the greeting, spoke as fol
lows: "My extreme interest in the State cam
paign now pending arises from a conception
cf its importance, which 1 do not believe is
at ail exaggerated. The fact that it im
mediately precede' a national campaign, in
which the vote of Xew York may be a con
trolling factor, is of itself sufficient te enlist
the activity of every man entitled to claim
o place in Democratic councils. Besides
this, she failure on the part of the Dem
ocracy cf the State to further emphasize its
Mipsort of the reforms to which the Ha
tioaal Democracy is pledged, we must all
confess, would be a party humiliation.
VBB. DEPniUCAS party incorrigible.
"There are, however, reasons beyond
these, which are close at home and which
lurre relation to State interests quite suffi
cient to arouse supreme Democratic efforts.
There are dangers clearly imminent and
schemes almost unconcealed which affect
oiir State, and which can only be avoided
and defeated by tlie strong and determined
protest of the united Democracy of 2Jew
York.
''The part we oppos;, resting upon no
fundamental principle, sustaining a preca
rious existence upon distorted sentiment,
and depending for success upon the varying
carrents of selfish interests and popular
misconception, cannot endure the 6ight of
a community which is inclined to withstand
its blandishments and which refuses to be
d away by it misrepresentations. Thus,
in its national management and methods it
boldly seeks to thwart the intention of
oters that are Democratic, and stifle the
ice of the pcopH if they speak in Demo
cratic tones.
"I am sure it is not necessary to remind
i in proof of this of the latest effort of
our opponents at "Washineton in this
u rection. nor to speak of the Democratic
' 'UCTaiuiuunn wjiicxi spreau inroucnout me
luidwhen by the defeat of the farce hill
our boasted American freedom of suffrage
va saved and Constitutional rights pre
served through the combined ellorts ot a
1 emocratic Senatorial minority splendidly
1'J and grandly sustained.
THE HEFUBLICAX DISPOSITION- BAB.
"Is there a Democratic nay, is there any
rran to dull as to suppose that the Kcpuli
l.oan paatv in this State is not of the sam
('imposition as the party in the nation Do
iit the attitude and conduct of its repre
sentatives from this State in nati-nal affairs
abundantly prove that the par- in Xew
York can be implieitlv trusted to aid any
scheme of this sort that promise partisan
advantage?
'ff further proof is desired that Xew
Yet Republicans arc thoroughly imbued
irh the proclivities that characterize the
jvrtv in National aflairs, it is readily "found.
l"-i'ier the positive requirements of our
Mate constitution an enumeration of the
nliab'tants of the Strte should have been
made in 1SV. and the Senatorial and As
nibly districts newly adjusted in accord
ance v ith such an enumeration. This has
not yet been done. thougi our opponents
hive had a majority in both branches of the
Legislature eer since that year, except
v lien iu the last session a Democratic
majority appeared in the assembU.'"
"liepablican reason for the neglect of a
plain duty in the matter of this enumera
tion is fottnd in the fact that under such a
new arrangement localities which have in
creased in population, and at the same time
in Democratic voters, would be entitled to
? larger
REPRESENTATION" IN' TIIE LEGISLATURE
than they now have, while the existing
adjustment is a very comfortable one from
a Republican standpoint. In the present
vndition it is calculated that a Democratic
majority in the State must reach at least
5H.000 in order to give us a majority in the
As-mblv."
Mr.Cleveland at this point introduced the
fiirnres from 1885 do n to prove his state
ment, continuing thus: "There is no reason
to hope forabetter and more just represen
tation of the political sentiments of the peo
ple of the State except through a complete
aislodgment of those who have so long
profited by this injustice. Its continuance
is directly involved in the present campaign,
tor not only a Governor, but a Senate and
Assembly are to be elected. No election
ill soon occur that will atlord so good an
opportunity to secure to our party the share
iii State legislation to which it is entitled,
ti.r w ill the Democratic party soon have so
pwd a chance to rectify a political wrong.
By way of further suggesting the impor
tanceof this campaign, 1 ask you not to for
pft that a new apportionment of Represen
tatives in Congress is to he made on the
basis of the census just completed, and that
it may devolve npon the next Legislature
to readjust the Congressional districts of
the State.
rXFAIRN-ESS OF DISTRICTING.
"Previous to 1883 these districts were so
arranged that though in 1880 our opponents
earned the State by only about 21,000, they
secured 20 Congressmen to 13 elected by the
Democrats, while in 1882, though the Dem
ocratic candidate for Governor had a major
in of more tlian liK),000, there were elected
but 2J Congressmen, one being a citizen of
Hrooklyn, elected at large, while the party
in the minority elected 13 Representatives.""
Mr Cleveland then referred to tie result
ot a redinricting by a Democratic Legisla
ture in 1883, so that though the Democrats
i -ted their l'resident next year and car-t-A
the State, the Congressional delegation
w is about equally divided. Then he said:
'I want to put'the inquiry whether, judg
ii from the past conduct of our opponents
in --uch matters aud from what seems to be
ii ( ir natural disposition, there is the least
c . mce of their dealing fairly by the De
n..racy of the State it they have the con
t...i of the next arrangement of Congres
si 'Ual districts"
' In your relation to the pending canvass,
' . ry Democrat who loves his country and
li party must acknowledge the important
'i nice rendered bv representatives of King
Miuiy in aiding the formulation of a decla
ration of financial principles in the plat
form which the Democracy presents to the
voters of the State, which Icacs no room to
double our insistence upon sound and honest
juoneylorall the people."
A CKAKK BREAKS LOOSE.
At the conclusion cf the ex-President's
speech an old, gray-haired man arose upon
tW tx-at, aud when he got a chance he
velied out, "Mr. Cleveland, did you get my
letter? What have you done toward pre
sor ing life and preventing death from col
lisions on the railroad9 What have "
The rest of the sentence v as lost amid
the hisses uliich greeted the old man, who
was hustled unceremoniously out, protest
ing against them depriting him of the right
of free speech. Resolutions of local interest
were passed and the meeting broke up.
A NEW STOKY OF THE EEVOLT.
In the Revolutionary Blot at Montevideo
53 Men Were Killed.
New York, Oct 14. The Serald has re
ceived the following cable advices concern
ing the outbreak in Montevideo, Uruguay:
The riot broke out" a few minutes before
midnight on October 11. The rioters be
longed to a club organized for the express
purpose of getting tip a revolution. They
called themselves the Junta, apparently
after the victorious opposition party in Chile.
It was confidently expected by the Junta
that they could rally a number of soldiers.
As soon as the conspirators left their head
quarters, thev proceeded directly to the ar
tillery barracks. Immediately after the
revolutionists left the place, however, they
were taken prisoners. Dr. Pantaleon Perez,
their chief, made a bold attempt to escape,
but fell pierced with bullets.
In addition to those who had entered the
barracks, there were 200 armed men with
out the building. These, upon learning of
the shooting of Dr. Perez and other mem
bers, retired to the National Club. A bat
talion of soldiers happened to pass by the
club house a few minutes later. Fire was
opened upon them from the windows and
doors of the building. Tlie troops returned
the fire and with deadly effect. Fifty-three
prominent men of the Junta party were
instantly killed. When the firing took
place the number of revolutionists had been
increased to GOO. Panic seized them when
they saw so many of their companions lying
around them wounded, dying or dead, and
the troops, following up their advantage,
quickly put the whole crowd to flight
BISHOP BB00ES CONSECBiTED.
An Extract From the Sermon Delivered Dy
Bishop Potter, or Now York.
Boston', Oct 14. The consecra'ion of
Bishop Phillips Brooks which took place to
day in the famous old Trinity Church was
one of the most memorable events in the
history of the Episcopal Church in the
East. Rt Rev. John Williams, of Con
necticut, was the presiding bishop and con
secrator; Bishop Clark, of Rhode Island,
was one of the presbyters, and the sermon
was preached by the lit Rev. Bishop Henry
& Potter, of New York.
In the course of his sermon Bishop Potter
said: "We are not here as in a drawing
room, to give him our congratulations. We
are here in God's sanctuary to give him our
commission. Henceforth he is to be a
Bishop in the Church of God, totvhomno
one of all God's children is to be an alienor
remote. We speak ot the limitation of the
Episcopate in these modern days, and it has
its limitations. I am not sure that, on the
whole, they are not wise ones. We in
America have shorn the office of much of
its state and ceremony, and secular author
ity, and in so doing I am persuaded that
we have done wclL The true power of the
Episcopate must forever be in the exercise
of those spiritual gifts and graces of which
it is the rightful, as it was meant to be the
inheritor.

A RESOLUTION FOE SUNDAY CLOSING
"Washington, Oct. 14. At the Method
ist Ecumenical Counoil to-day, through
Rev. Dr. Curts, of Chicago, the Committee
on the Sunday Closing of the Chicago
Columbian Exposition made a report,
which he prefaced by saying that the local
directory of the fair was under the control
of the large stockholders. These stock
holders were the railroads, the street car
companies and the brewers. All of these
corporations were clamoring to have the
exposition open on Sunday everybody
knew why. The only hope of the success
of tho conference lay in the United States
Commission, who were in some sense re
sponsible to Jie people. The report was as
follows:
To the Unlfc-d States Commissioners of the 'World's
Columbian Exposition:
Tho Ecumenical Methodist Conference,
composod of 50U ministnr9 and laymen, and
representing the Methodist churches
throughout the world, respectfully petition
vour lionerable bodv to prevent thepro
posed opening of the World's Columbian
Exposition on the Lord's Day. Wo make
this petition for the following reasons:
THE BELIGIOUS REASONS.
First It is the religions conviction of the
great majority of Christian people that man
needs, and God commands, the observanco
of a Sabbath.
Second The opening of the Exposition on
Sunday would violate the Sabbath. Keeping
traditions of the American people and their
Anglo-Saxon ancestry, nnd also the laws of
tho United States and Illinois.
Third The Columbian Exposition ought
to exhibit to visitors from other lands a
characteristic Christian American Sunday,
rather than a weekly secular holiday.
Fourth The proposed opening on Sunday
-nould deprive the thousands of employes in
the service of the Exposition of their right
to one day in seven lor rest ana worsnip.
Tlipsninn injustice would be done to tho
many thousands in the service or the trans
portation companies. It would also furnish
an excuse to employers for refusing to grant
holida) s for the purpose of visiting tho Ex
position, which would otherwise be given to
their employes
Fifth The spirit of the movement to open
the Exposition on Sunday is not philan
thropic, but merecenary. It is not primar
ily to give the worUngmen a chance to visit
the Exposition, but to inorease the gains of
tho transportation companies ana others
who nie large stockholders in the Exposi
tion. TIIE EXAMPLE OF PHILADELPHIA.
Sixth As nn offset to the plea that tho
stockholders will lose money if tho Exposi
tion is not open on Sunday, wo beg leave to
remind you that the Centenaial Exposition
at Philadelphia was a success with its gates
closed on Sunday.
Seventh We have reason to believe that
many of the exhibitors from Great Britain
and other Christian lands will refuse to ex
pose their exhibits on Sunday, thus render
ing the Sunday exhibit very unsatisfactory
to visitors, and at the same time silently re
buking the mercenary spirit that would
open the gates on that day.
Resolved, That n copy or this petition,
duly certified, bo forwarded by tho secre
taries of this conference to the secretary of
the United States Commission of the World's
Columbian Exposition.
Mr. Atkinson, SI. 1, of England, hoped
the report would be adopted. There would
be no financial loss from closing the Exposi
tion on Sunday, and the church people of
Europe had succeeded in similar cases by
like means. Rev. Dr. Gibson, of Paris,told
of the results of keeping the .Fans Exposi
tion open on Sunday, and favored the reso
lution. Rev. Dr. Humphreys suggested as an
ymendment the addition of the words, "It is
in direct violation of the laws of the States
of the Union, and particularly of the State
of Illinois." Adopted.
Several delegates from other countries ob
jected to the term "continental European
holiday," and the phrase was modified to
read "weekly holiday." The conference
adopted the report as amended without di
vision. THE QUESTION OF FEDERATION-.
The Business Committee next reported
back a resolution on the subject of Sletho
dist federation. It recites that the Confer
ence recognizes the desire for Christian co
operation among evangelical churches, and
especially among the various Slethodist
churches; that while the time for organic
union might not have arrived, yet con
certed action was now possible. Tlierefore,
it was recommended that the churches
represented in the Conference consider
whether such concerted action be possible,
and if so, by what means. Haifa dozen del
egates spoke in terms of praise of the reso
lution, but before the debate closed the
further consideration of the subject was
postponed until to-morrow.
The topic of the morning session was.
"Education," and the first paper was one
proposed by "W. M. Fitchett, of the Austral
asian Slethodist Church, of Viotoria, en
titled, "The Religious Training and Culture
of the Young." In Dr. Eitehett's absence,
the paper was read by Rev. Dr. W. Slorley,
of New Zealand.
The writer urged strongly the duty of the
Church in the education of the young. He
held that it had failed so far in that. Even
the Sunday school failed, and failed where
it was most needed, and that was in the
older scholars. The pulpit had a too often
forgotten mission in the training of the
young. In the English hymn book there
was no child's hymn.
THE STATE MONOPOLIZING EDUCATION.
But facts must be recognized, and the
tendency of the time was toward State edu
cationtoward free, compulsory, secular
education. "When the State entered, the
field of primary education, no competition
was possible. It is a great monopoly. And
therein lay the danger of the Church. In
ten years the primary education of the
young would be secular. The peril was that
it might not only be non-Christian, but
anti-Chistian.
Rev. Thomas B. Applcget, President of
the New Jersey Conference, Slethodist
Protestant Church, spoke on "The Family."
In regard to the forces which have in these
later days been devised for the entertain
ment and so-called culture of children, there
may arise in thoughtful .minds grave doubts
whether thev be of God or not; but all will
admit that the highest and most sacred re
sponsibility of maturity for the training of
youth finds its divinely ordained expression
in the parental relation. In the holy or
dinance which makes twin one flesh; in the
abiding love and tender pity of parents for
children; in the quiet and retirement of
Christian homes; in the sweet communion
of fireside affections; in the gentle restraints
of the household: in mother's kiss and fath
er's counsel; in the daily reading of the
family Bible; in the sacred breathings
around the family altar here are the
springs of the great" river which is to bear
our children into the church and unto God.
ENGLISH SUNDAY SCHOOLS.
Rev. Dr. Robert Culley, of London,
treated Sunday schools from the English
point of view. Not only should the teach
ers understand the truth as taught by Jesus,
but they should be able to teach that truth.
Sluch of the teaching was incoherent and
indefinite. In rural England the Church
had to contend inch by inch for the ground
it had already won.
Rev. Ii. J. Coppln, A. SI. E. Church, of
Philadelphia, said it would not do to carp
at the Roman Catholics for bringing their
children into the churches when the Sleth
odist s did not bring their own children to
the Sunday school It a child less than 12
years of age nas bound to go to heaven,
why was he not good enough for member
ship in the Church?
Rev. Dr. "Waller, of England, said the
salvation of a country depended on the sal
vation oi the children. By a strange irony,
"
in "Victoria they took the Bible from the
hands of the school child only to thrust it
into the hands of the criminal when he en
tered the jail. The Bible was being driven
out of the public schools in America, and
the Church should redouble its effort to
reach the young in other ways.
Rev. D'r. William Gibson, of Paris,
thought there was much to be learned from
the kindergarten system, for he believed
that through such a system the question of
how v to control the children would be
settled.
'SYMPATHY FOB EEV. ME. SPUEGEON.
A resolution was introduced and referred
to the Business Committee, expressing sym
pathy with Rev. C. H. Spurgeon.
Her. John Smith, of the Primitive Sleth
odist Church of England, read the first es
say in the afternoon, on "Elementary Edu
cation How It Slay Be Best Promoted."
He said that the United States was the only
country in the world that spent more money
in education than in war or warlike prep
arations; that had given in aid of the cause
more territory than was comprised in Eng
land, Scotland and Ireland together. Edu
cation did not consist in conforming the
child to a mould, but in the unfolding and
training of whatever powers and facilities
lie in germ in the heart and ,mlnd. It was
strange that education should have been
made the football of political parties and
rival churches, yet the fierce battle was still
being waged in England. Elementary pub
lic schools should be freed from all religious
domination, and as they were sustained by
the people they should be kept in the peo
ple's hands. Applause.
Rev. J. D. Hammond, of the Slethodist
Episcopal Church South, Covington, Ky.,
spoke upon "The Ethics of Elementary
Education." He said that men learned more
in the first three years of childhood than
during the whole college term Facts were
accepted without question, and logic should
be withheld.
UNDOING A BAD EDUCATION.
During infancy the child is taught abso
lute selfishness. The remaining education
should undo this. Any system of education
that took no account of this fact was fatally
defective. Only 6 per cent of Jthe children
received more than elementary instruction,
and the only method by which continued
moral development could be seoured in the
other 94 per cent was by the inculcation of
proper principles in these early stages.
Hon. J. C. Dancy. of the African Sfetho
dist Episcopal Zion Church, "Wilmington,
N. C., addressed himself to "Secondary
Education." Scholarship, he said, was not
the heritage of any race. It lay in the in
dividual. Scholarly education was the
ruling lorce of the world to-day. .Method
ism in America was indebted to education
for its marvelous growth. Secondary edu
cation included character-making. As the
result of that education in the case of his
own race, the auction block had been turned
into the school house.
Rev. A. SI. Green, of the African Sletho
dist Episcopal Church, of New Orleans,
spoke of the difficulties of giving religious
instruction to youth when the examples
around were at variance with those teach
ings. He hoped the Bible would be taught
freely in all public schools on both sides of
the ocean.
H. II. Shaw, of the Slethodist Episcopal
Church, Portland, Sle., hoped to see elim
inated the false idea that boys were to be
forced through school and college to crowd
into overcrowded professions without re
gard to special aptitude.
Took More Than He Owned.
John Remlinger, nn Allegheny barber,
was arrested yesterday for larceny. George
Shidle, the prosecutor, says Remlinger
bought $15 worth of goods from him through
an agent and then came and took anything
that Buited him without regard to who it
belonged. Remlinger says he thought all
the goods belonged to him.
