BLAINE TALKS AT OPHIR
Makes a Short Speech to Mr.
Reid's Neighbors.
NOT LIKELY TO SPEAK AGAIN,
Ills Dlncnurso Unvoted Chiefly to the
Tariff An Appeal to Irish Voters-
Mlnlatnr Knn anil Dr. Depaw Sponk-
A I)litlnciilIiod Company 1're.ont.
White Plains. N. Y Oct. IB. From
tho porch of tho Vice-Presidential candl
date's homo at OphlrFnrrant 0 o'clock
last night James G. Blaine delivered his
long looked for speech on tho issues ol
the present campaign. Ho spoko before
an nudionco composed of nearly 1,000 ol
the voters of Westchester county, nnd in
response to a serenade by a number of un -
formed Republicans of tho district.
It had long beon a matter of earnost
solicitation on tho part of Mr. Blaine's
friends and the Republican leader? that
he should give utterance to his opinions
on tho issues of tho campaign, but it
lookod all alone exceedingly doubtful
wherRer oven tlio importunities of his
friends could bring tlio statesman again
beforo tho public.
Mr. Blaine decided to make his brlel
and only speech of this campaign yostcr
day afternoon.
By the time dinner was over last oven
ing distinguished visitors from all parts
of tho surrounding country be
gan to pour into tho corridors of Ophlr
If arm Mansion.
Among the clubs in attendance wore
the Colored Harrison and Raid Campaign
Club of White Plains, tho Whitolaw Reid
Republican Club of Portchester, and the
Harrison and Reid Republican Club ol
Rye.
There was great cheering when Mr,
Held and Mr. Blaine appeared. Mr.
Blaine sulci in part:
"Fkixow Citizens op Nkw Yohk I
should bo churlish, Indeed, if I did not
luako responso to your call after you liavo
come several miles to this beautiful home
of Mr. Reid on a plensant October even
ing. At the same time I am not making
peeches In tho canvass, forreasons which
are wall known to my friends, nnd which
have no connection whatever witli poli
tics. Generally, administrations in a
Presidential election are challenged on
account of tho condition of the business
of tlio country, and I submit that tho Re
publican Administration of President
Harrison can triumphantly endure such
a test.
"I doubt if, sinco tho Government of
the United States was instituted, any
body, at any timo, has seen what wo call
"good times" so general, taking in so
ninny interests and spreading prosperity
throughout the whole domain of trade.
I might appeal to New York if the city
has over passed a season more satisfactory
In llnancial results thuu fur the past two
years, in which tho general cllect on
Capital and Labor lias been moro pros
perous. "More men in New York got Jthelr liv
ing from pursuits protected by tho tariff
than from any other source. 1 know
New York is the centre of our commerce,
the great entrepot of our trade; but all
the men engaged in commercial atfairs
in and about Now York aro smaller In
numbers than the men engaged iu manu
factures. "Nor, if you go West, where the Demo
crats this year are making considerable
effort and doing a vast amount of boast
ing, will you And it different. Take
Ohio, take Michigan, take Indiana, take
Illinois, and tho products of manufactor
ies aro greater In pecuniary amount than
the products of agriculture iu these four
great agricultural States; so I think that
when it happens to Democratic orators
who aro on the wing trying to arouse the
hostility of these Stutes against the pro
tective tariff they will encounter a senti
ment of which they have not dreamed,
"Tho amount of their tarm mort
gagos rolls up into the millions. You
would Buppoko it fabulous that the
a mount of money they embrace would
ever have have beon so invested. This is
not so among tho farmers of Now York.
It is not so among the farmers of Now
Jersey. It is not so umong the farmers
of Couneotiout. It is not so among the
farmers of Pennsylvania. It is not so
among the farmers of any State near by
whose condition can bo easily learned,
but by a singular fatality it is tho
Western States that have got nil these
farm mortgages burdening them and
tuking the life out of the people.
"The tariff, so the Democratic papers
say, is the origin of a plutocratic trovern
ment. When wealth shall rule and poor
men shall not get their rights, I shall
venturo to clmllengo all statements of
that kind, and I shall uinko the Demo
cratic accusers the judges in tho case.
"A careful examination of the list of
wealthy men iu tho country has been pub
lished and has demonstrated the fact to
bo quite the reverse, to such nu oxtent,
indeed, that in the City of Now York,
taking tho first one hundred nnd fifty
great fortunes, not three, not two, not
more than one would be considered as de
rived from manufacturing investments.
"I have a word to say about the Irish
vote. I seo it stated that the Democrats
boast of having the mass of them in their
ranks this year. It is one of the mys
teries of politics that a question which
Interests England so supremely, which is
canvassed almost as much in London as
It Is in New York, should have the Irish
vote on the side of great Britain.
RS"I know this appeal has frequently
been mado to the Irish voters, but I make
it with emphasis now, for I am unwilling
to bellevo that with light and knowledge
before them thoy will deliberately be on
the side of their former oppiessors."
After Mr. Blaine had finished his speech
there were loud cries for Minister Egan,
who made a speech that was loudly
cheered.
The people present had not enough of
speeches, und Dr. Depew was colled upon.
Ho made a witty address that was greeted
with laughter and applause.

Parsons, Kan., Oct. 15. This city was
greatly excited over a telegram from Cof

believed to be the same gang that held
up the Missouri Pacific train and supposed
to be connected with the notorious Dalton
gang of outlaws who met their death the
5th, had organized nud were moving
upon Cofleyvllle with the avowed purpose
of avenging the dentil of tho D.iltons.
Since the Dalton massacre many per
sons have been in Coffoyville, and have
openly condemned tho manner in which
this notorious vans met its death, and
several sympathizers have been arrested
and conllned iu jail.
As soou ns the news of the contem

public iu this city a largo posse of men
was at once armed and was ready to em

there was no likelihood of any trouble and
that in cose of any invnsion the people of
Colleyvllle woro prepared tojjopo with

set of men ever shouldered a gun than

In Trimble.
Philadelphia, Oct. 15. The downfall
of fraternal orders continues. The latest
is the assignment of the Universal Order
of Security to Charles H. Edmunds.
Tho scheme of the order was similar to
that of Iron Hall and Tonti, it having
tho seven year plan, but being moro con

instead of $2.50, the assessment fee of
Iron Hall.
The order was incorporated in Phila
delphia June 17, 1888, in Common Pleas
Court No. 1, and had a membership of
4,000 one-fourth of which is in the local
lodges of Philadelphia.
It is claimed that (the assets consist of
mortgages on Philadelphia real estate
which can bo converted into the full
amount ot tho loan. No certificates of
the order have yet matured and would
not do so for three yours to come. The
only finyments which havo been mado aro
thoso ot sick benefits:
The cause of the assignment is to es
