Ur-rr'a:Pltnatch to the Htandarl
Dr.r.rLodok, Oct. 30.^The Unrest, most^intelligent and enthusiastic political meet^^ing ever held in Deer Lodge was that which^greeted the Hons. W. W. Dixon, W. M.^Biekford and party last evening at tba^court house, which was filled to overflow^^ing, a great many being turned away for^lark of room. Rinds wore playing, liombs^bursting and bonfires burning in every di^^rection during the evening. Music was^furnished by the Silver Bow cornet bund^of 18 pieces, and well did its members ac^^quit themselves.
Themeeting was called to order at 8^o'clock. Judgo U. M. Durfee us chair-^man first introduced the Hon. W. \V.^Dixon, than whom none other is held in^higher esteem by the citizens of Deer^Lodge and vicinity. BtBBa in private and^public lite. Mr. Dixon began in a happy^vein by greeting his lormcr neighbors and^friend* m poor Lodge, which, prior to^entering public lite, had been his borne^for 11 numlM-r of years. He then took up^the record of the republican |^arty In |^ur-^ticulur and to that portion of its record^bearing on the coinage of silver, and by^reference to the best of authentic records^proved beyond the shadow* of a doubt the^inconsistency of that party to the inter-^osts of the peoplo on ull financial legisla^^tion since the demonetization of silver^ill 1873, quoting ut length from the^congressional records the indisputable^evidence of their perlldy. A mild reproof^was administered to the wavering demo^^crats who had or were at this time adul^^ating with what is known as the people's^or third party, show ing in a logical and^forcible manner the advantage that would^be given to perpetual ing reputdicau ut-^cendeney by casting their votes outside^their purty lines. Mr. Uixoii retired amid^thundering applause, and was followed by^John C. Mahoney. the candidate for state^superintendent of public instruction.
Mr.Mahoney delivered a brief but elo^^quent address, and was followed by Mr.^itasion, the nominee for state treasurer.^Mr. Haston spoke briefly and was well re^^ceived.
o'.:_-e Durfee then presented Charles^Boiiuer, nominee 011 the democratic ticket^IsVtat* stats lugislaturc. Mr. Homier de^^lineated the true character of class legis^^lation as it exists, and which has been in-^corpura'ed into our governmental system^during iho past -5 years by the republican^party, declaring most emphatically as a^result that less than 61 persons in the^United States bad absorbed an amount^exceeding the national debt during the^past 15 years. Mi-, li inner closed a 1110,1^interesting address by appealing to ull^good democrats and patriotic citizens to^vote the democratic ticket on the eighth^of November next,and in that way quietly^and peaceably restore the republic to the^people.
Mr.11 inner was followed by Hon. \V. M.^Biekford. Mr. Uiekford eulogized the^efforts of the domocrulic party in striving^at all times and places to preserve to the^people of the t'ntted States tho freedom^of the ballot, and denounced the republi^^can force bill in most emphatic terms.
Theband, amid deafeniug applause for^Dixon ami the entire democratic ticket,^discoursed several strains of music, while^the densely packed hall fairly shook w it h^genuine enthusiasm. This closed tho^most interesting meeting held by the^democrats of Deer Lodge, and was in^every particular a complete success.

OURGRAIN SUPPLY.^Immense Crops la the DMTereat statos-^A Blockade at Chicago.
NewYork. Oct. 30.^The American Agrt-^culturitt prints an elaborate view of the^wheat supply. It points out that exports^from India is falling off and Russian wheat^is being be Id for an advance, that the sur^^plus for export from Australia and South^America is very small. The world's re^^serve supply is by no means made up by^last year's heavy yield in the United Slates^and the replenishing of these reserves^accounts for our enormous reports and^active foreign market at present. The^Agriculturist's returns indicates total crop^of 9.'1,43I,(KJ0 bushels. It claims the totul^of the area of wheat has been greatly ex^^aggerated, the yield per acre underesti^^mated and that the total crop is 6 to la^percent, more than reported. This year^the total crop by states appears from^the paper's review as follows:
Inround millions bushels^Pennsyl^^vania, 18; Ohio, 31; Michigan, 21; lllino' .^39; Indiana. 34: Minnesota, 52; Iowa, 8;^Nebraska, 17; Missouri, -4; Kansas, 64;^California, Si; the Dakotas, 86, and other^states, 90.
Accordingto advices from Chicago there^are lo.ouo loaded grain cars in that city,^and there is absolutely no place to unload^them. Every elevator is crammed to tLe^eaves, few of tho shippers are inclined^to pay the rail rate, and a majority of tb^'^boats do not care to take grain at any price.^The reason for tho lack of lake trans-^portaiion is that every elevator from^Toledo to II..Halo seems to be as full as^these in Chicago. Apparently this city is^as badly blocked as Chicago, and grain^cars through to this point might as well bo^run into the East river as lur us their re^^turn is concerned. East bound line*^from Chicago are beginning to board then^curs as a miser docs his gold. If they^took every car of the truffle offered tin 111^they might easily see tbu timo within a^lew weeks when all their cars would be^used as storage warehouses on trunk lino^side tracks. Exactly this state of affairs^is coming about in a less degree on west^^ern roads. In spite of their host attempts^cars arc being piled up in ^ hioago at 11^rate that w ill soon make the blockade of^last year a very insignificant affair.

Charleston,W. Va., Oct. 30.^Adl.il^! Stevenson gave to the press to-night bis 1
letterof acceptance, lie says he lias boon '
engagedcontinually since the big Now-^i York meeting at w hu h he and Cleveland^I spoke, in a discussion before the people of '^: many states of the union on the issues '^- emphasised l*y the convention and ropro-^1 sented by the candidate for president, '
(innerC leveland. Op]s^rtunny thus has^| been denied him to write a formal accept- |^| anco w ith tho care be desired, lb- sa\s, I^I however. Mr. Cleveland's position on sub- ^^I jects now before the country for disous-^1 sion is so complete that he can do little^' more than endorse Cleveland's position '^, and give it the emphasis of his unqualified
approval.
t^ll is plain,^ says Mr. Stevenson, ^that^our present iueipiiiable system of 11111 IT^I taxation bus promoted the growth of such^conditions as result in tho draw mg of trilt-^ule from the many for the Is-iii-flt of the^few. Part of the |kh^plc ai*e oppivs-od in^oitler that the remainder may prosper 1111-^1 duly. Quality is lost sight of, injustice^hardens into precedent which is used to^. excuse ik-w exactions, nod there arise ar-^lilicial distinctions which iM-nelieiaries^have come 10 look U|xiii in due time as^vested rights, sacred to themselves. If^the iMMicliciarics arc nblo to gain a I^new- tenure of |vowcr, tin* develop^^ment ot these conditions which must^^ Is* vested in those who have |s^wer^to tax w ill bo lodged 111 those w ho are^able to pay lor the |h*r|M3tuatioii of privi^^leges organicully coulcrrcd by confiding^people for the preservation inviolate of^their own governmeui. There is no^longer a pretext (or the niaiiitctiam-c of a^war tariff in times of |x-aee ami be is in^hearty accord with the demand ol the^democratic platform to reform thissjs-^teui.
Theconvention also doolarod 11^ posi^^tion on the currency question in noun-^meaning words,^ said Sir. Stevenson. 11^then quotes the currency plank of tho^platform and says: ^To this plain ami^unequivocal declaration in favor of honest^money I subscribe without reservation or^qualification. A safe ein-ulating inediiiiu^is absolutely essential to tho protection of^business. To tho wage earner or farmer^it is all important that every dollar, w hat^^ever its form, that finds its way into his^pockot shall tie of equal, unques^^tioned ami universally cxehaugcahlo^value, and of equal purchasing power.^Another Issue of great moment is the^force bill, the magnitude of which cannot^be overstated, it may mean the control^of the election of representatives in con^^gress by the bayonet. Tho republican^party advocated this in the l iftj-llrs con^^gress and by its platform in the late na^^tional convention stands pledged to the^passage of this bill. That it w ill pass it^when it has the powor 110 bane man can^doubt.

It would ineito in^many communities rare trouble* and in^^cite retaliatory legislation : ami its inflex^action upon northern states would result^in a loss in commercial relations vv 1th the

NEWYiiUK, Oct. :*^. A llrruhl special^from Raleigh. N. C, says: State Auditor^Sanderlin nas juat returned from a can^^vassing tour on the Tennessee tmrder. A^gang of desperadoes in Yancey county^had. he *av*, sworn that no democratic^sjs uker should lie heard there, and when^he went |a Hiirnsville the threats were^renewed. The democrats at tlie court^bouse, however, assured lam that he^would receive full protection. Soon^after he began to speak Hud Parrott,^at the head of a gang of desperadoes,^forced Ins w ay into the court room, armed^with a Howio knife und Is-gun to curse^Sandorliu ami swore tha' he would kill^him. A ntinilier of denus-rats sencd him^and rushed hSPJ to the dtsir. As soon as^the door opened Parrott's gang rushed to^Ins sale. Pistols were tired, knives used^und stones thrown. A desperate fight^raged on tho steps of the court house for^several minutes, but the democrats got the^best of it and drove the desporadites from I^the building. Dr. Sandorliu then resumed '^his speech. Suddenly the attacking |uirty j^reassembled in force. Two of their j^tninilsT forced 1 tit ir way into the^court nsiin, hut were Instantly 1^seiied and thrown out. Then the fight '^was renewed. Pariott was shot and !^killed, w hile a democrat named Phillips |^was so terribly cut w ith a knife that he,^died shortly afterward.

MORE LIBERAL SUBSIDIES
CanadianVasaais on tha Paolflo^and tha China Trada^^Tha Shipbuilding^Industry.
WASltlXi.tox.Oet. 30.-E. C. O'Brien,^commissioner of navicution, in his annual^report expresses the opinion that the es^^elusion of foreign vessels from participa^^tion in our domestic and coast* ise com^^merce provided by the art of 1873 has^alone saved our shipbuilding- from ruin,^ami that in this absolutely protected^branch of our merchant marine we have^attained success ill nautical affairs far^surpassing- those of any other nation on^the globe.
Koferrinsto -lopping on the lakes, the^commissioner notes an increase in ton^^nage from ril.lJb.9 in IS^-' to l.JK-J.VJ tons^in ls'JJ, and suys it now embraces a licet^of large steam vessels, models of beauty^anil cllh iency. He says ^tide foreign^navigation is ah-oluteiy driven from^tbe trans-Atlantic trade, it sur^^vives on the Pacific ocean. The^commissioner however calls attention to^w hat he regards a threatening danger on^tie- l'.icitic, and says tho fact that the^dominion government has enabled the^Canadian l'ucitic railway to construct its^bin-across the continAit sud place on^the 1'aeitlc SSSM a litis* of steamers which^receives irom the Canadian and British^governments an annual subsidy of fatD.tsJO^u year, which is live times the amoont^paid annually to American steamers i ar^^ming mails to und Irom Asia, which sev^^eral tunes exceed in magnitude the^mails carried by tlie Canadian lines. The^total annual subvention to this combined^Canadian mid British government^line of railroad and steamers^amounts to about tin.'1** a ^ear.
