RepuhUcan Gains Everywhere Through out the State—Democrats Cannot Avert Defeat—Harrison a Sure W inner. I ndianapolis , Oct. 29.—General Hovey is here to-day resting from the labors of his canvass. He has yet eight speeches to make, and hopes to be able to fill every engagement made for him. Speaking of the outlook the General said: “ We are certain to carry the state. There can be no doubt about it. It is not possible for the democrats to buy enough votes to de feat us now. Wherever I go I am told of many democrats who will vote the repub lican ticket, and for every one that boasts of a determination to change there are two that do not say anything about it. The number of changes lar exceeds anything of the kind ever known in any previous campaign. In Clinton county I was told of an organization there known as the “ Kickers,” with 139 members, all of whom voted for Cleveland, but are oppos ing him this year. “ In Port Wayne, where I addressed a crowd last night that filled the hall so near to suffocation th^it two persons fainted, I was given reliable assurances that the democratic majority would be reduced 500. “ Congressman White estimated the re duction would be 1,300. So it is where- ever I go. There is, I tell you, a republi can ground swell in Indiana. Allowing margin for all the votes it is possible for the democrats to buy, General Harrison will still be left a plurality of 10,080.” “ What is the basis of your figures?” “ Very large gains will be made among several classes. There are in Indiana 65,- 000 ex-soldiers, and about one-third of them are democrats. Of these democratic soldiers two-thirds will this year vote the republican ticket. In many counties I think the proportion of changes will be eight of every ten. The soldiers will help us in another way. Sixty-five thousands of their sons will vote this year for the first time and about two-thirds of them are republicans. We are sure to get a very large majority of the old Greenback vote, and I find that the third party pro hibition movement is aisintegrating, which will be equivalent to a gain of 3,- 000 for ns. These are my reasons for be lieving that the state will go republicar. With a fair election our plurality would be 15,000.” WANT 8190,000 DAMAGES EKOM ER IE Fred Gebbard and Others Estim ate Their Dam ages by the Shohola Accident. Messrs. Platt and Bowers, as attorneys for Frederick Gebbard, five of his em ployees, and Matthew Storm, have begun in the Supreme Court of New York county seven actions against the Erie Kail- way to recover in all $190,000 damages for personal injuries and the loss of valu able horses incurred in the accident at Shohola last summer. Mr. Gebhard’s personal action against the company demands $100,000 damages for the loss of his stock. Four of his em ployees sue for $5,000 each for personal injuries, and one whose injurias were more serious, fixes his damages at $20,- 000. Mr. Matthew Storm, who owned the horse Grover Cleveland, and who was very seriously hurt in the accident, de mands $50,000 damages. A m otion w a s made before Judge Bar rett Monday by the defendant's attorneys, Buchanan and Steele, to make the com plaints more specific. Among the valuable horses lost by Mr Gebbard by this accident were Eole, Eolist, own brother to Eole, Palanca. Orphan Boy, and Pauline. Mr. Gebbard refused $40,000 for Eole. A DELIGHTFUL THREE DAYS' TRIP The Erie’s Excursion to New York City on Saturday Next- The excursion to New York over the Erie railway, on Saturday, November 3d, promises to be the finest of the season, and as it is the last low rate excursion to the metropolis, no doubt a large number from here will take it in. The Erie will run a special train for this occasion, leav ing here at 11.32 a. m. and arriving at Jersey City at 2.10 p. m.. New York Chamber street at 2.25 p. m., New York 23d street at 2 30 p. m. Returning the special train will leave New York at 4 p. m., landing passengers at destination at a seasonable hour. The tickets for the round trip have been placed at the remark ably low rate of $2.35, children under 12 :ars $1.20, so that all who desire to go will not be compelled to stay away on ac count of the exorbitant price charged for railroad fare. Tickets for the return passage will be good on any regular train returning before the special train Monday night. This gives patrons ample time to transact busi ness and to see the sights in and about the great city. The special train will be in charge of the officials of the company and passengers will receive proper attention at their hands. Ladies unattended will be properly cared for. Ho not miss it. Go and invite your friends to join you. For further information see Erie ticket agents or examine the small hand bills. REPORT BY PHONOGRAPH —-L. E. Carr will address the republi cans of Heerpark at the Rink next Fri- DEMOCRATIC LOVE FEAST. They Conclude to H ave Jnst One More M eeting on Friday Next. Our democratic friends had celebrated another love feast at the Opera House last night. The speakers were E. L. Ab bott, esq., of New York and the demo cratic nominee for Congress, Mr. Bacon. It was announced by J. W. Lyon in his introductory speech that this was the last meeting which the democrats would hold this year. Subsequently two prominent, democrats of the town were observed to be in earnest consultation about some thing, and this something was disclosed in the announcement at the close, that the determination not to hold any more meet ings had been reconsidered and it was now decided to have another meeting on Friday. Was this sober second thought inspired by the hope of offsetting the effect of the republican meeting to be held at the Rink on Friday night, and which will be ad dressed by L. E. Carr E sq.? PERSONAL. Mrs. H. J. Van Gilder, accompanied by her son, left tovm yesterday noon on train One, to visit her mother and will remain about two weeks. On Wednesday next at noon, Mr. Rus sel Headley and Miss Adelia Jenkins, of this city, will be married in St. George’s church, Stuyvesant square, New York city. Mr. Joel T. Headley, jr., the brother of the groom, will be the best man.— Newburg Journal. Wm. George Taggart has been the object of jibes and sneers of the machine organ in this place, because he earned his living by honest hand work. Usually those who are thus assailed by that sheet run ahead of their ticket Wherever it cir culates. Therefore the probability is that Mr. Taggart will get a good vote iu this section. Mr. Elliott has been treated very fairly by the Republican newspapers.— Middletown Press. L. E . CARR AT W A L D EN. Another big republican rally was held in Scofield Hall, Walden, on Saturday evening. The Hon. Lewis E. Carr of Port Jervis—a favorite orator with Wal den audiences was the speaker. The ad dress of Mr. Carr was a strong and pa triotic one for the whole republican ticset, and it was most enthusiastically received. The Walden republicans will have their grand closing rally of the campaign on Monday evening next, Nov. 5. OUR ASSEMBLY CANDIDATE, Six years ago When Charles St. John, Jr., ran for Sheriff his town gave Cleve land 652 majority, while at the same tim« he had 267 majority, or in other words he lan 919 ahead of his ticket. This attests his popularity at home and with a full vote he will be largely ahead of his ticket. Surely the outlook for his election is flat tering, and republicans everywhere should make a special effort in his behalf.—Mid dletown Press. THOUSANDS INSULTED. Every self-respecting citizen of this great state, every man who values honesty and purity in the conduct of public affairs, every man who is truly desirous of seeing politics lifted to a higher plane, has been insulted by the shameless nomination of David Bennett HilL lias receive! Y M. Stanley excepting two men. SUDCCESSFUL EXPERIM E N T AT A MEETING IN ORANGE. It Reports the Speeches of Gov. Green and Ex-Senator W infield—ReiJrodnces the Speeches and the M nslc and Ap- plansc as W ell. The first attempt to record a public speech by means of the phonograph was made last Thursday evening at a demo cratic rally in the Park Rink in Orange. Very few of the 5,000 people present knew that the curious funnel shaped ar rangement just in front of the platform was there for that purpose. It in fact reported the greater portion of Gov. Green’s speech and that of ex-Senator Winfield. The funnel, seven feet long, looking like a huge cornucopia, was placed in front of the platform, with the large end pointing toward it. The small end was connected with the transmitter of the phonograph, which stood upon a table about nineteen feet distant from tbe mouth of the speaker. After the meeting an exhibition was given of the powers of the instuament. Several persons put the tubes to their ears and the pleased and wonderstruek expressions of their countenance testifies that they heard and understood what the machine said. Among these \’was editor D. A. Dugan of the Orange Herald, who claims the honor of being the first to pub lish a speech reported by the phonograph. Mr. Dugan says that he could not only heat every word distinctly, as reported by the machine after it had been carried to his office, but he could distinguish the in flections and hear the applause and cheers and music of the band as plainly as though they had actually bean repeated. The advantage of the phonograph over sten ography he says, is that one can get a faithful reproduction of the whole scene. Its accuracy can be absolutely relied upon. At the Edison laboratory the phono graph was put in operation, and the re porter, by putting the tubes to his ears, heard the peroration .of ex-Senator Win field’s speech. The phonograph does not confine itself to utterances made tor the benefit of the public. During one of the speeches the chairman of the meeting addressed a brother politican, over which ’they both laughed. Both the remark and the laugh ter were recorded by the transmitter. Experiments are constantly being made upon the machine, and a new aad better form of cylinder is in process of con struction. Within two weeks another at tempt will be made, probably at Orange, to take a public speech by the use of the phonograph. For this purpose a funnel has been constructed smaller than the one used before and of different shape. With this it IS expected to attain even better re sults than on last Thursday evening. TH E MEETING AT SFARROWBUSH. Clias. A. L. GoMey of N ew York Ad dresses a R epublican Gathering There. A very interesting republican meeting was held last evening at Hammond’s hall in Sparrowbush. There was a goodly number in attendance. Wilton Bennett in a neat speech, introduced the speaker of the evening, Mr. Chas. A. L. Goldey of New York, who, in a masterly manner, explained the benefits of protection to our industries, and on the other hand p-’rtrayed what we might ( xpect if the so-called de mocratic tariff reform measure, the Mills bill, becomes a law. One of the democratic leaders of the place and a campaign speaker, not being satisfied with the representations of the speaker, ashed what he seemingly thought were some very puzzling questions in rela tion to the silk industry, but the speaker answered them so promptly and in such a m nner, that the questioner evidently felt like the fellow, who made the remark, that if he had known the thing was loaded he would not have touched it. xx.

A Former Jerseym an, Residing: in M lcbl- gan. D ies in a Baltimore Hospital. Lewis Westfall, formerly of the Clove Valley, Montague, Sussex county, N. J., died, on October 22d, of consumption, at the Univeisity Hospital, Baltimore, aged 52 years. Mr. Westfall settled at Jackson, Mich., of a large mercantile house. A number of years ago he dissolved his connection with that house and connected himself with an importing house at Chicago and, while traveling and selling goods, he contracted a severe cold, which resulted in hasty con sumption. He entered the hospital on September 18th, and died as above stated. Mr. Westfall, in his early years at Jack- son, united in marriage with Donna Woods of that place, by whom and a daughter, the wife of Hon. Frank Watson of Jack- son, he is survived. Mr. Westfall’s home was also at Jackson, and his body was taken to that city for interment. He was a son of Wilhelmus and Mar gery Cole Wesifall, deceased. The ances tral home was the farm now owned and occupied by David Westfall in the Clove Valley, Montague. A numerous family, six sons and three daughters, were born to Wilhelmus and his wife, all of whom are dead, with the exception of David Westfall of Monti gue and Mrs. Hannah J. Wesifall of Kansas. THE TIME EXTENDED. The A b o lishing o f the “ Deadly Car Stove ” Is Delayed. A lbany , Oct. 29 .— The report of the late action of tbe Railroad Commissioners in the matter of the application of a num ber of railroads for an extension of time to comply with the provisions of chapter 189 of the laws of 1888, in respect to heat ing its passenger cars other than by a stove or furnace kept inside the car, or sus pended therefrom, has been made public. The Newburg, Dutchess and Connecti cut railroad is granted an extension of time for one yCar on account of its running mixed trains, and at a rate not exceed ing twenty miles an hour. The other railroads, v iz: Grand Trunk, Long Is land, Norfhern Oeutral, Western New York and Pennsylvania, Delaware and Hudson, Delaware, Lackawanna and Western, Fitchburg, Adirondack, New York, Lake Erie and Western, Pennsyl vania ai d New York, Central Vermont, and Elmira, Cortland and Northern rail road companies and the Pullman palace car company have been granted an ex tension of time to Jan. 1,1889, in which to comply with the law. A DISTINGUISHED VISITOR. P. T. Bamum’s great show is going into winter quarters at Bridgeport, Conn. Last night one of the cars belonging to nis combination was coming west over the Erie. It contained the stuffed carcass of the giant elephant Jumbo. At Lacka- waxeu the rear end of the car sagged down upon the running gear preventing the revolution of the wheels and it was necessary to slide the car down.from Lackawaxen to this station. Jumb6 was side-tracked just in front of the oil house in the Erie yard and may be inspected at that place by all who feel any curiosity to see the grand elephant* The car will have to be repaired and the running gear put in order before Ju mbo can be taken to his winter quarters in Bridgeport.

BLAINE SHOWS THE ENORMITY H ow England 1 b W orking for the E lec tion of Cleveland—One of th e Great Speeches o f the Century. In his speech at the great Madison Square garden meeting Thursday, Mr. Blaine s a id : For the last four months the democrats have been denying, the republicans have been affirming, that the first and last con stant wish of England was that Mr. Cleveland’s administration (groans), that Mr. Cleveland’s administration (renewed groans); Mr. Blaine—“A sp’endid echo 0 (that Administration (Loud applause, laughter and cheers) that Mr. Olevelana’s administration (a voice—“Oh, what a word !” and renewed groans) could be sustained by the whole force and effect of English public opinion ; and just when they had begun to make an expression and an impression upon the American people, that such might not be the fact, we have the letter of the British minister at Wash ington himself. (Groans.) I know you don’t like to hear about it (ironical laugh ter) ; we have the letter of the British minister himself, urging the re-clection of Mr. Cleveland. (A voice, “ He’ll never get it I” and groans.) THE LETTEB THAT OALLED IT FOETH. And you never can interpret a letter un til you know the letter that called it forth. To get the whole gist and meaning of a correspondence, you must have both s id's of it ; and this letter from th e ^ r i t i s h minister v/cs called forth by a letter from California, a single extract o f which I will read. (Cries of “Good. ”) It is written by a native of England, and 1 will read this paragraph. Addressing the British minister he says .- Many English citizens have for years re frained from being naturalized, as they thought no good would accrue from the act. But Mr. Cleveland’s administration .has been so favorable, and so friendly t< ward England, so kind in not enforcing a retaliatory act passed by Congress, so sound on the free trade question, and so hostile to the dynamite Irish (laughter), that by the hundred, yea, by the thousand, they have become naturalized for the ex press purpose of helping to elect him over again (cries of “ Oh !\) the one above all of American politicians they consider their own and their country’s best friend. (Cries of “ Well ! Well !’’ and laughter.) Then this writer goes on to tell Lord Sackville that hi.s faith has been a little shaken by the attempt of Mr. Cleveland to have a retaliation on Canada, and he writes to the British Minister to have his doubts resolved, and Lord Sackville tells him that that is only a little political by play 1 (Ironical cries of “ Ah I”) I t don’t mean anything—(“ No, no,” and laugh ter)—he need not be afraid. He and all Other English voters may go ahead with perfect confidence that Mr. Cleveland (groans) is all his fancy painted him. Now, my friends, I don’t stop to com ment on this with severity, for Lord Sack ville is a very amiable gentleman, of whom I should dislike to say anything severe. (A voice “ Oh, hit him hard.”) But three Ministers to the United States—certainly two—have had their walking papers for an offense less grave than that (applause), and to-night, if an American Minister to England should write to an English voter advising him to support either side as fav orable to the United States, he would be politely invited to sail by the next steamer. SEOEETAKY BAYAED’S AMAZING ATTITUDB. And yet, what does the Minister of State say, what does our Secretary of State say concerning him? Why, he says there is no harm done. It was only pri- Tate! (Laughter.) Well, suppose he s nt a prirate circular all around. (Laughter and cheers.) Suppose he issued 10,000 of these and marsed them “ Private,” and became a local electioneering agent for Mr. Cleveland. Why, I suppose Secretary Bayard would say, “ Not a particle of harm, as long as you marked them ‘ Pri vate r ” (Laughter.) And as long as you mark them “ Private ” they will have all the more beneficial effect when they have some way or other, crept into the public print. (Renewed laughter.) And so this has done its perfect work. It was written for Mr. Cleveland. It was written in aid of him, to bring the whole naturalized English voters to his support, and Mr. Cleveland’s Premier, the head of his Cab inet (groans), says it is all right. Are we to have a British Minister in stalled at Washington giving his opinion as to what we should do in this country in our political aud domestic contests? (Criesof “ No.’’) And one remark he makes that I wish to comment on particu larly, for I call it an insult to the repub lican party—and I am a good deal more sensitive to that than I am to an insult to the de.uocratic party, (Laughter and ap plause. ) If Mr. Cleveland and Mr. Biyard are content to have British Ministers in sult the democratic party, I shall not weep over it. (Laughter.) But I protest, in the name of that party, against Lord Sackville’s saying that the rejection by the republican Senate of an outrageous and miserable and dastardly Fisheries Treaty was a mere political ruse for the campaign. He has no right to say so. There has never been a syllable heretofore in the his tory of the Republic, democratic or re publican, whig or federal, that we for one moment have entertained that Eishery Treaty—not one (applause); and Lord Sackville has no right to say so. He has no Tight to say to the American people that the part that has borne the flag of the Republic high, that has saved its life against the rebels in the South and against conspirators in England—he has no right to say that the Senatorial representatives of that great party, in looking outifor na tional honor, are merely playing a politi cal ruse. He will find it a pretty little ruse that will outlast the campaign. He will find it one that will outlast the English resist ance. He will find that kind of a ruse will last so long as tbe honor of the American flag,is to be preserved, and the race of hardy fishermen of America is to be protected. (Applause.)

M. D. Stivers, republican nominee for Congress, passed through this place yes- terday on b|s way to Sullivan county. Mr. Stivers is making an energetic canvass of the district with every prospect of success. True, he was beaten two years ago by a small majority by his present opponent, Mr. Bacon. He made a fine run, how ever, and to-day his canvass is much stronger than it was then, while that of his opponent is proportionately weaker. Bacon’s record in Congress as a supporter of the Mills bill and his sympathy with the free trade tendencies of the democratic majority will cost him the votes of many democrats in this district. So, too, will his hostility to the Dependent' Pension Bill. Mr. Stivers is known to be a sincere friend of protection and his canvass will commend itself to all voters, irrespective of their previous party affiliations who desire to have this district represented in Congress by a friend of the protective system.

The Bun’s managing editor, Chester S. Lord, thinks Connecticut acts as though it would give a republican plurality. When the managing editor of one demo cratic paper admits this sort of thing in another democratic paper (the Boston Globe), Connectiout republicans should work hard to hold the advantage. One week more, and it will be all right. The democrats of Bath, in this state, don’t feel very well as a party. Seventy- five of them formed a Harrison and Mor ion club the other day, and put on badges labeled “ Protection to American labor— justice to Union veterans.” A great many democrats are pondering deeply on those two ideas about this time. f--------------- The largest political parade ever known in the Mohawk Valley took place at Imsterdam Monday night, there being over 2,000 men, representing nearly every town in the county, in line. The great est enthusiasm was displayed. Manu facturers and workingmen united in this ^rand demonstration for Harrison, Morton and Protection.

As usual, Goshen is discounting all towns of its size in the county this fall in the number of its citizens who have been placed in nomination for good fat offices —in fact no town of any size can ccfin- pare with it for fat things. After having had Congressman, County clerk and Deputy County clerk the last terms, and now having the good office of Surrogate, It once more has Henry Bacon up for Con- ' gress, George W. Greene for the;Assembly, and wants Charles G. Elliott for County Clerk. Goshen is supposed to be the chief seat of the ring within t.;e ring— that mysterious body which report tells 08 is composed of the men who try to run both parties by dividing the spoils between them, and for a small village it certMnly does pretty good.—^Newburg News. ON ELECTION DAY. The New York World in criticising the play of “ Dan Darcy,” which is to be played at the Opera House on next Tues day writes: “ A Cleaner, truer, fresher presentation of the emotional Irishman you never saw. The part fairly bubbled over with that unique quality of wit that you never get anywhere out of Ireland. ‘Dan Darcy” is as strong a type as is Josh Whitcomb. You smell the peat fire the moment you see him. The everlasting verdure of his green hills is in his heart, and the wet skies show in his gray eyes. Hood’s Barsaparilla, which has relieved thousands and will cure you. Sold by druggists. Darcy.’’ is the star of his new play, “ Dan Darcy,” is a thorough Irishman. When he appears in Irish, character he attempts what is natural to himself and what is not ac quired simply by study of types of Irish individuality. He was born on the ‘ ‘ ould sod ” and was reared there, and every action and twist of his tongue, therefore, is simply the reflex of himself.
