A Helena for the Capital Blow-Out at
Casseade.
CASCADI, Oct. 21.-A crowd of Great
Falls orators came here on the 2:20 train
Saturday afternoon to hold a Helena for
the capital meeting.
Notwithstanding the efforts of J. H.
Shepherd, the vice president for this
place of the Cascade county Helena for
the Capital club, to gather a big crowd,
"especially ladies," as the order came
from headquarters, very few ladies
graced the meeting with their presence,
but there was a good turn.out of the
other sex.
Mr. H. H. Nelson called the meeting
to order and nominated Mr. H. D. Hall
as chairman. Mr. Hall was elected and
filled the position with dignity, ease and
grace that was very pleasing to his
friends, and his nomination and election
called forth more applause and enthusi.
asm than was rendered to any of the
speakers who followed.
The speakers for the evening were
Ransom Cooper, H. P. Rolfe and Win.
Cockrill.
Some of Helena's supporters here
think it was one of Marcus Daly's fine
jobs to have Cooper speak, and tire the
audience and take up the time of the
other speakers. If he was in the employ
of the Anaconda committee, he did his
work up in fine shape, and he ought to
be kept right on, and always be booked
as the first to speak.
However, Mr. Cooper said something
last night, that no other orator for Hel
enaever said before, and that war, "he
did not believe that every man who vot
ed for Anaconda was bought."
He also said that Marcus Daly had a
little hatchet to grind and that was the
reason he wanted the capital at Ana
conda. le failed to say anything about
the Northern Pacific's big broad axe
that needed sharpening, and that they
were spending as much money as Daly
to keep the capital at Helena.
The next speaker was the brilliant
Rolfe. For his speech I will refer you to
the editorial columns of the Great Falls
Leader for the last month. As Rolfe
was stepping off the train I overheard a
republican and a Helena for the capital
man may, "What on earth did they send
him up here for; he couldn't turn a
goat."
Billy Cockrill was received with con
siderable enthusiasm by the audience,
and I think it was his popularity more
than the capse he represented that
gave him such a warm reception. Billy
did not say anything that was new.
He abused Marcus Daly and the Ana
conda company and spoke of the saintly
pople of Helena and the awful thing
that would happen it Anaconda got the
capital.
othwithstanding that Cascade is
Helena's banner precinct in this county,
the attendance and lack of enthusiasm
displayed could be anything but what
the Helena boosters anticipated.

SITUATION IN NEW YORK.
d Democrats Said to Be Actively En.

Differences.
SNaw YORa, Oct. 23.-The republican
* managers of the state campaign, while
n actively at work pushing the canvass in
' all parts of the state, are unable to find
any distressing indications in their
ranks, and in serene confidence are
Swatching the attempts of their demo
cratic adversaries to adjust and harmon
ize the factional disturbances with
which they are beset on all sides and
r especially in this city. EsxPresident
Harrison will arrive here later in the
" week to attend to some private busi
e nsew, and while in the city it is the in.
e tention of Chairman Hackett to arrange,
e if poseible, a mammoth meeting at which
o. ex.President Harrison will speak and at
e which his former running mate, Mr.
Morton, now republican candidate for
e governor, will be present. Senator Hill
y spoke at Yonkers last night and will
s- speak at Brooklyn this afternoon and in
- New York and its vicinity Friday, when
s he will return to the interior of the
state. The situation, so far as the New
York and Irooklyn candidates for con
grees and the assembly are concerned, is
very critical. With the county demo
t orate opposing the Tammany congres
sional and assembly candidates in this
r city and the Shepperd candidates run
ning against the regular nominees in
the Brooklyn distracte, the opposition
jeopardizes the election of four Tam
r many candidates in this city and the
Shepperdites endanger four in the dis
tricts of Brooklyn. As the margin by
which the democratic managers hope to
carry the next house of representatives
is very narrow the situation is regarded
as extremely grave at democratic head
quarters. All efforts made heretofore to
wards harmonizing the differences to
prevent the possibility of the republic
I ans slipping in through democratic div
isions have thus far proven ineffective.
Senator Faulkner, chairman of the dem
ocratic congressional campaign commit
tee, will be here again today to witness
the result of the present effort. Ridrard,
Croker and Perry Belmont, President
Cleveland's ex-minister to Spain, were at

fasted with them. They are said to
have agreed on a policy of conciliation.
After the conference Senator Faulkner
returned to the Imperial hotel to meet
Police Commissioner Martin and other
Tammany leaders, to see if terms can be
arranged. At democratic headquarters
it is said that arrangements have been
made regarding the congressional nom
inees whereby Gen. Sinkles and J. S.
Walsh, Tammany candidates, will with

A. Canter remain on the ticket.
RO88A'S HARD LUCK.
He Is and Is Not a Citizen of the United
Stater.
Nzw YORK, Oct. 23.-O'Donovan Rosas
has sent a letter protesting against the
action of Edwin F. Up], assistant secre
tary of state, in refusing to issue him a
passport. Although he has been voting
a number of years on papore granted by
Judge Larramore, in the court of com
mon pleas in 1871 Upl's ruling was to the
effect that the papers were worthless on
the ground that the qualification of five
years' continuous residence has not been
complied with. Mr. Upl's reason, Mr.
Roses says, prevented him from visiting
Great Britain, where he had contracted
to lecture, and compelled his return to
this country from the continent of
Europe. Roses wants to vote at the
coming election and says that he cannot
again apply for second papers, because
the judges have ordered the arrest of
persons who once have secured second
papers and file application for a second
issue.

It was the Helena dodge to get a large

VICTORIA, B. C., Oct. 24.-The steam.
ship Empress of Japan has brought ori
ental advices up to Oct. 12 as follows:
"All Japan is in a fever of excitement
awaiting news of Gen. Oyama's expedi.
tion, supposed to be directed toward
some point on the Chinese coast within
the Gulf of Peshill. Reports of a land.
ing at Port Arthur, Wei-Aali-Wei, and
other localities are alrerdy circulated in
Japanese newspapers. From the begin
ning the Japanese authorities have been
determined to allow no Inaccurate re
ports of actual events to go forth. Ad
miral Ito's official report of the battle
near Tal Kosean barbor has been pub
lished. It is extremely exuberant in
tone and filled with eulogies of the
spirit and fortitude disp'ayed by officers
and men. The position of foreigners in
the interior of China, especially north, is
regarded as extremely critical. The
residents of Shanghai feel it necessary
to remind commanders of European
fleets of the dangers that threaten them.
In case the government suffers further
repress the few aliens who remain in
Peking will have far more serious cause
for apprehension. The authority of Li
Hung Chang, which would ordinarily be
exercised on behalf of strangers, is now
so weakened that his promises of pro
tection can no longer be trusted. No
immediate movement from the capital
could safely be attempted as the roads
are thronged with disorderly bodies of
troops and a peasant population fam
ished and destitute. The presence of
marines to guard and legions to restrain
the lawlessness of mobs, which seem
only waiting for a pretext to rise up on
Europeans and Americans, is impera
tively demanded.
