Well, what did make us si pro3rous

Sewt.ih tji AV jrlves it rs bis belief
that the Republicans will carry New

that Mr. Cleveland, while President, official

one third of tiie whole numlwr that came

How history repeals itself: how the

How Dignitaries Were Brought.
From the Chicago Herald, Oc-tofcer iid, IrvZ.
One of the most important and tucefw-fut
features in conection with the dedicatory
exercises of the World's Fair grounds, and
one which fully illustrates the won.krful
progrees which our country bas nude with
in the last half century, was the movement
made by the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany of the cabinet officers, the supreme
court justices, and the diplomatic corps from
Washington to this city and back. It re
quired three special trains to perform this
function, and Vice-President Frank Thom
son, to whom the credit of the achievement
is due, made requisition on the Pullman
Palace Car Company for the finest equip
ment which those famous car builders could
produce. The result wa3 a triple section
train each as has never before glided over
the rails in any country. A crew of twenty
five persons, including stewards, cooks,
waiteis, porters, maids, electricians, ar.d
machinkls, in addition to the Usual quota
of trainmen, was required to insure proper
service. The outfit resembled in a Soiue
what lessened degree the personal equip
ment of an ocean greyhound, cf which the
trains were a duplication on land.
These trains were provided and tecderd
fur the use of the distinguished gursts of
Chicago by Vice Presidei.t Thomson. They
were run from Washington to Chicsgo as
sections of the regular ' Chicago Limited,"'
of which they were duplicates, end they
conformed to the regular schedule of that
train. With the thorough organization
of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company and
its splendid system they came through the
entire distance, on the special schedule time
arranged for them, without accident or delay
of any kind, and this in the face of an ex
traordinarily increased pase:iger trsfiic
The great line is in such excellent pLysical
condition, so well prelected by the safeguards
of modern invention, and so perfectly man
aged by a cori of men who have lieea
educated and trained under the eyes of its
high officials, that a movement of this kind,
extraeordiuary as it may appear to the public
was eliected without interfering in any man
ner with t!ie routine of everyday tratlic
It is safe to say that while no other
country in the world would be able lo move
the entire organisation of its governiaent a
distaue-e of one thousand miles, so there is
no other railroad company which exiuiJ
grapple w ith such a proble m and solve it
with the ease to the persons interest and the
crvdit to itself that has di-tir.guiil.e-J this
achievement of the Pennsylvania Railroad.
It n fleets the utmost credit on Yice-I're"idrnt
Thorns n, who plar.ne-I, and Lis associates,
w ho executed the brilliant f.l of raiiniad
trati-;sita!i.in, and holds out a brig'it
promise erf equally suixesjiful work when

A Fair Statement of the Case.
Frtua The Se-w York Sluroir.g AJvertuer.
No amount of word juggling ran explain
away the f1 that the Cleveland party plat
form declares for the abolition of the Nat
ional system and the restoration of the old
ruinous private banking system. The mo
ment the lo per cent tax on circulation is
taken o3, every brokea-down epf culitor and
boomer in the country aid start a private
bank, and wipe out what he owes with his
own private bank notes, which he will
presently refuse to pay.
CARTER GIVES FIGURES.
He Says That Republicans Have
2ll Electoral Votes Sure.
New York, Oct. SI. Chairman Carter,
who apj"?ars to set particularly bright pros
pects on this State, said : " In the opinion of
the members of the Executive Committee,
tLe election of Harrison is assured. Our
belief is not based on hope, but absolute
knowledge of the conditions prevailing in
the so-called close States. We feel certain
that we have ill electoral votes outside of
Iiieiiatia, New York, New Jersey, Connecti
cut arid West Virginia. In the West we are
not admitting the pcib!e loss of any vote",
except four in Michigan, which will be cat
for Cleveland, and 3 ia Nevada, whichwill go
to Weaver. In Minnesota, despite the fusion
ws will carry all n ne eli-ctors, although four
will be e'ected by Fraill n.rij..ritics. In
Kansiis, Nebraska, Iowa. Wiicor.sin and
Montana ; we feel perfei tly safe. I also
(hick we will carry Mew York, Indiana ar.d
West Virginia. In ihis State we Lave every
reason for confidence."
The Democratic situation Las been reduc
ed to thi3 point : Mr. Cleveland will cany
the Solid South, New York, New Jersey aad
Connecticut. These States give ill electoral
votes, or within 12 votes of a majority. The
question cf supreme interest at Democratic
headquarters now is, where arc those twelve
vote to come from ? The Democratic man
agers will now give more attention to Indi
aua than any State ia the I'ciou. Should
Indiana be lost the Democrats hope that
Wisconsin will give Cleveland the 12 votes
nece-iary.
Aerator juay appeared at National Re
publican headquarters to dsy and hel l a
consultation with Mr. Carter and Mis. Man
ley. A number of Republicans on the Produce
Exchange to-day put np f5,000 even, on New
York ia small bets. Betting on the general
result continues even.
A very ugly feeling bas giown cp between
the State aad National campaign managers.
It is now apparent that Cleveland will be
cut by not only lu.noo county independent
Democrats, but by many straight Demo
crais, who are dirgested with the marx;.-e-toeiit
of the campaign.
One of those, who in former years was very
close to Governor Hill, taid to day, "Hill
may make speeches to help friends out of a
difficulty, bat I don't believe 11:11 wants
Cleveland elected, and unless Cleveland
comes out in a speei-h, or letter, and says
that he believes that Jliil did everything
possible for hira in I knov the H.'ll
men who believe as I do will not vo:e for
Cleveland."
Mr. Cleveland Las decided that he had Ut
ter sjieak ia Connecticut, which is a confess
ion of Democratic weakness ia that State.
"We are Sure Winners."
New Yoek, Oct. 30 The Dmccra ts have
been asserting for the last thr;e days that
Senator Quay had withdrawn his aid from
the Republican national committee, going lo
Lis home, claiming sickness as aa e-xrusa for
apathy. Mr. CJusy went to Washington
yesterday, but will be bark early next week.
He said before going :
'"I will return to give my party any help
ia my power, and my xirierice ia 'he last
campaign may be of service. I rt.sy have
had seime time ago n.y doubts a!mt tie
election cf our ticket, but I can say now t!, at
I arc cetain we are aia sure winners. In
deed, 1 am more confident to-dy ibsn I
was at this time four years zo. Harrison
and Iteid in every way, in eiery qualifica
tion for public service, are sujerior to their
Democratic rivals. Tae people realise ibis.
They prefer the party principles to that of
any, all a-id uo principles, and ws are
c. Twain winners.
