HARRISON WINS THE WEST.

A Careful Canvass Indicates RepublicanVictories.

THE REAL FIGHT II THE SOUTH

lEfreisfd majorities Probable in Xorthern lew York.Cleveland Speaks at a German-American

Hecting— in Indiana.

Special to The Morning Call.

Washington. Oct. 27.—Hon. John M.Thurston, a prominent Nebraska politician,said inan interview to-day: "The outlookin the West is thoroughly satisfactory. Ihave just returned from a careful canvassof the frontier counties in Nebraska, wherethe People's party Is the strongest, and Iam convinced that the Republican electoralticket is safe beyond reasonable question.Tho treatment of General Weaver in theSouth and Mr«.Lease's statement of theabominable outrages committed in Georgia

en speakers in the People's cause havethoroughly disgusted such 'Publicans astemporarily attached themselves to thatorganization. Kansas will give 20,000 ma-jority for Harrison and Reid. Colorado,Wyoming, Idaho and Montana are, in myJudgment, quite safe. The rainbow chas-ers willnot find a pot of gold in Minnesota,Illinois and Wisconsin. Michigan may givefour of her electoral votes to Cleveland, butehewil! stop right there. lowa trill notleave the Republican c lnmn this year by acomfortable majority. Ithink that the realfight must be made in the old doubtfulMates. The West .swerves occasionally in

. eff years, but points true to the pole of Re-publican principles when the issues involvedmean the perpetuation of the party and thehanding of it over to its hereditary enemiesIliboth the executive aud legislative branchesof the National Government."

"-gressnian Ui:rlei^l)of White Ball,N. V, said to-day: "Northern New Yorkwillcertainly give an increased Republicanmajority this year. The towns of Ticoa-dcroga, Sandy Hill and other manufactur-ing towns have had a larg* increase In theirbusiness during the last four years, «ndthey believe it is due to the protectivepolicy of the Republican part}'. Tlie worfc-

. !ngnien are going to vote the Republican.ticket. The price of hay in the farming dis-tricts and potatoes and butter is higherthan itwas four years ago, and the farmersare ail doing well. Canada cannot now sendus its sr.rnJus except by payi: g a duty undertbetteKinley law, and there is no reasonwhatever why every fanner in the Stateshould not support Harrison and Reid."

Peku. lad., Oct. US.—Governor McKinleyaddressed a great crowd if p^npie here to- ';day, itbeing estimated that 30,000 men fromthe surrounding districts were present.Several bis meetings were held again to-night* ;

V:TALKING TO GERMANS.

Clerfhnil Makes \u25a0 Speech in Cooper\u25a0

'\u25a0 Union Rail.

HEW York. Oct. 27.— The German-

American Cleveland Union held n greatmass-meeting to-night' in Cooper Union,the large hail b^ing packed with people,«nd nearly as many more being unable togain admittance. There was great enthu-siasm throughout the proceedings, tumul-tuous applause greeting Cleveland, CarlSchurz, Oswald .Ottendorfer and others.William Steinw-ay was introduced as chair-man and spoke at some length in denuncia-tion of the McKinley law. He then intro- jduced Cleveland as "a gentleman known, ;honored, revered and beloved, not only inAmerica, but the wide world over." Againthe audience broke loose shouted itselfhoarse in greeting the ex-President

After dwelling upon tne duties of foreign-born citizens, Cleveland said: 'If we areto be fellows in our. citizenship this fellow-ship is only realized when we enjoy in anequal and* just manner the advantages ofour citizenship. At the present time wefind a political party soliciting the suffragesof our people in support of a doctrine thatthis fellowship in our citizenship is securedwhen the prosperity of certain especial in-terests is favored in the nuking and execu-tion of our laws, and there is made a directcharge upon the industry of those notwithin the circle of governmental parti-ality. As the result of a successful asser-tion of this doctrine we find enormous un-earned fortunes in the hands of a few in-dividuals, while those who in the unequalrace patiently rely upon personal thriftandSturdy individual effort are far in the rear."IInterpret the organization and activity

cf the Gernian-Ameri«au Union as protest-Ing against the violation of the rights of itsmembers in this fellowship, and 1conceivethat this demonstration is to be a revoltagainst the mockery of calling those fellow-citizens who are deprived of an equal par-ticipation in the advantages promised underfree American institutions.

"The remedy for the unfair inequalitiesIn the distribution of the benefits of ourAmerican citizenship is in the hands of thevoters of the land, and if there has been adeparture from the lights which shouldguide the operations of our Government itIs for the people to demand a return to safechannels.

"Let me warn you, in closine, that thestruggle to secure the ratification of falsemethods and the dislodgmeut of selfish ad-vantages is Dot an easy one. The attemptsto cajole our voters, successful in the past,are still continued, and bribery and corrup-tion is still in vogue. It is on y by intelli-gent argument, constant endeavor and unre-mitting vigilance that we thai! recover ourlust and equal share of the benefits whichbelong to us as American fellow-citizens."

Cleveland was repeatedly and loudly ap-plauded during his remarks.

Hon. Cml Sehurz followed Mr. Cleveland.Be was greeted with greit applause and«poke in German on the issues of the cam-paign, lie said in part that never beforein the history of American politics has so

.Immense a corruption fund appeared as theRepublican party is now using, and never

\u25a0 has its purpose been so nakedly revealed.Itis ridiculous for the Republicans to raise

. the cry that the Democrats do the samething.- .The Democra'ic campaign manage-ment is highly rejoiced when It raises moneyenough to pay office rent, clerk hire, print-ing bills and other, necessary expenses.Speeches were also ruad« by local orator?,'

which concluded the great demonstration.Jdeanwh-ile speakers on the two stands infront of the building addressed several. thousand German citizens who were unableto gain an entrance to the hall.

SALISBURY'S VIEWS.

Troubls Anticipated in the Next Session ofParliament.

London, Oct. 27.—Lord Salisbury has anarticle in the National Review on tha sub-ject of constitutional revision. In answer-Ing the contention that the present Govern-ment has a right to elevate five hundred"sweeps" to the peeragp, he holds that thenext Tory Government will have the sam«right, and will elevate more "sweeps" andsv/aniD the Liberal majority.

"Great Britain," he say?, "has given nomandate for such exceptional proceed iiii,',because if any home rule mandate has beengiven at all it has been given only by atrifling majority. Th« electors are almostcertain tn follow the precedents «inee 1847,and have reserved th»ir deci3ion for thenext appeal to the country. The constantexpectation of such a reversal implies acontinued struggle scarcely siiurt of civilwar."

The Chronicle referring to Salisbury' 3article says: "This is a great political event,noc on account of the weight of Lord Salis-bury's argument!', but because it indicatesthat the gravest national issue is destinedto be fought to the bitter end Instead ofsettled amicably and patriotically on na-tlonnl grounds."

MET HEATH IN A FOG.

Two Columbia River Steamers CollideSear Portland.

Portland, Oct. 27.— News has Just beenreceived that a collision occurred on theColumbia River, about twenty miles belowthis city, this morning between the steam-boats lralda and lone, which ply on thelower river. U

Otto Peters, a passenger, jumped over-board and was drowned. Itis reported twoother persons were injured.

The fog was so dense that one could notsee a dozen yards ahead. The lralda leftLa Cnmas this morning at 7 o'clock, withits usual passengers and freight traffic Thelone left Portland early this morning,bound for La Camus.

There seems to have been no lack of sig-naling, as passengers on both boats agree Intestifying that whistles were blown as fre-quently as the occasion seemed torequire.

Several passengers of the Iralda werestanding on the forward deck when sud-denly an object loomed up directly in frontof them.

One shouted, "Bon back for your life."and those on deck turned aud started torthe stern of tie vessel.Ivan instant, however the lone crashed

into them on the port buvv, and the shockthrtw every one down on the deck.

Otto Peters heard the warning cry to runand looked ud to see what was the matter.He saw the sharp bow of the ft-amerheaded straight for where he was standing,and approaching at a rapid rate of speed.He hesitated for a moment, then suddenlyawakening to the necessity for action hegave a shout and jumped overboard. Hewas not seen agaiu until his lifeless bodywns recovered.

When the crash came both vessels madefast to one another. The passengers of theIralda were transferred to the lone, andthen a hasty examination of the exteut ofthe catastrophe was made.

The lone was uninjured. The gunwaleand upper left-hand side of the Iralda weretorn away, and it was evident that she hadsustained serious damage. Itwas decidedto beach her on shore, and the I<>ne re-turned to Portland with her passengers.

Several pa'sengors were injured l>y fly-ing splinters, but noue were hurt seriously.One passenger was thrown Hat on bis laceard iiis nose was broken.

United States Marshal L. T. Barm, whowas on board the IraIda. had his arm audhand badly bruised. Mr. Barm, who con-eidero his escape from death a* almostmiraculous, in relating his story of the acci-dent, said: "Itis the biggest wonder in theworld that our boat was not cut in two.Neither pilot saw tneother steamer tilltheyalmost met. The officers of both vesselsacted bravely and no ulame can be attachedto then;. Tne accident was due to the ion."

Peters was a resident of Deer Island,near Kaiauia, and carried on a large fishingbusiness.
