THE TRUE DEMOCRATIC REPUBLICAN TICKET.
FOR PREsIDENT,
WILLIAM HENRY HARRISON.
FOR VICE PRESIDENT,
JOHN TYLER.
STATE ELECTIONS, &c.

The Globe, OF Wednesday, with flourish oil
trumpets," announced Federal Loco-fuco gain In
several counties in New York The editor Is usual
ly guilty, both Of the "ggest,o fals" and the sup
presto peri He has much Of the latter to answer
for in this matter.
He omiis to state that the increased aggregate Re
publican majority over the Loco-focos Is 100 In the
county Of Chenango, in which he boasts OF success
That New Berlin, for the first time, elscted a Re
publican supervisor over the most popular Loco-foco
by majority OF 25--lhe latter having been elected
last spring by a majority OF IL. That Oxford for
the first time Also beat the Locofoco candidate by
majority Of Is. That the Loco-foco majority In
Green was reduced to 50-Guilford do. 25-and that
Smyrna increased her Republican majority 25.-
The Locos elected their ticket in Plymouth by a
majority Of one. The nomination on the part of the
Wings were not satisfacIory-only about one-half
Of the Wing voters were at the pols-Pymoulh is
good for 100 Harrison majority. And the county Of
Chenango will dance next fall to the tune Of $50
majority for Old Tip'-s,ick pin there.
The account given Of results In other counties Is
probably entitled to as much credence as the Che
mango account. In Otsego county, our friends made
no rally, except In few towns. The Loco-foco
majority in the county last fall was 1918. There
Pren.iss He Is the most popular man In the coun.
IT, and his majority was about GOO only--and that is
all the majority that Mr. Van Buren, can get in o.
sego next fall-stick another pin there.
Our friends may rest assured that the town meet
ings In New York furnish no cause Of exutation to
the Destructives. A letter from intelligent friend
ia Albany says" So far as heard from, the town
meetings have gone much In our favor" This is
the truth Of the matter.
The Globe told us that the Albany Argus con-
tanned po chole eoumns Of returns from the interior
Of the State, exhibiting reactions favorable TO Mr..
Van Buren,. How easy is 1t, in State as large as
New York, TO select number Of towns from ad-
mitted Van Buren, counties, and parade them into
newspaper columns, as evidences Of the general will
Of people But we could have anticipated this
shallow braggadocia, by relating the fact that the
Albany Evening Journal, and the Daily Advertiser,
have for several days past, published column after
column, announcing the triumphs Of the friends Of
Harrison in the town and county elections. BY way
Of Offset to the beggarly account OF loco foco tri-
umphs published in the Globe we will make few
quotations, and we will begin with Mr.. Senator
WRIoHrs own county, where Mr. Van Burens par
iy have heretofore received their Ten to fifteen hun
dred majority!
MAKE WAY FOR ST. LAWRENCE.
Mr.. Silas Wrght's own county has told glorious
tale in the spring elections The patriotic exertions
Of the Wings have been amply rewarded. The fol-
lowing summary Of the results we find in the Og-
densburg Times.
