starving to Death in New York.

Such is the heading Of an article on one Oh
our inside pages, copied from the last numooi
of the Catholic Rerie,o. We do not peiiese
that in this city there has been, since the dea'h
of Young Aspil, a single case Of actual starVa-
tion. but we know that there is at present |
q great deal of suffering among the poor
much more now than in years before during
the Fall. As the Reriew truly says, the case
cited is q terrible argument in favor OF tne
Society of st. Vincent de Paul." for II that
Society was understood by Catholics, its MEM
bership would be so large and its resources 30
| much greater than at present, that not only
| would the occurrence of such heartrendlng
events be impossible, but much of the great
destitution of the poor would be alleviated.
In New York city, with it's 100000 Catholics
} there are only 1000 men belonging to the Soci-
etv. and these receive but indifferent sup
j port. Here, with Catholic population OF al
l loast 10000, we have only 800 membersj and
as to pecuniary assistance, the amounts con
q tributed are so small in most parishes, that W.
t would be ashamed to give detailed Statement
q of them. The disproportion existing between
' the number of destitute persons usually foun'
q in cities as large as New York and New
:, Orleans, and the means employed in thei
" relief, is apparent, but that disproportion
% greatly increased when in times OF distres
~. like these the number of poor is augmented tie
IN fold.
III AS we have in this city thirteen Conference
n of the Society, attached to as many parishe
dividing between them the labor of visitir
re the poor at their homes, as is the ivariab
rk rule, all who cannot be able to take an acti
~ part in it's works as a member, may east
IN | assist in these irving times by leaving thu
re contributions with their pastors, by placl

THE RING.RAILROAD TICKET.

Not to be mean, we give the main noted
portion of the above ticket below 1t will
be seen that the boys have both a natural
and acquired taste for pap. Hon. NJ. H.
Power for Senator, two years Supervisor
and two years in the Legislature; ho only
asks to go to the Senate four years longer
w. B. Lyon for the Assembly, six years
Recorder; went out of Office cursing the par
ty for want of generosity, and swearing the
Republican party had got his last vote, and
that it had outlived its usefulness and should
be dissolved then and there; crawled back,
got sort Of c avire deputy general commits
sion; finally caused the Imprisonment of the
old Argus editor that he might get bis place,
and now would like to 60 and do dirty work
for the monopoly, or whoever would pay the
most, for the next two years. S. B. Burt
once had the reputation of being clever fel-
low, but by his appointment to the Supervi-
sorship he got taste of the county pap, and
that spoiled him. He now wants more pap,
and since in his present position be has shown
himself amenable to the manipulators Of the
G. II. ring, even to repeating the Codes,
when THEN interest required it, it is thought
he will be a nice piece of dough to place in
the hands of their chief, from which he can
mould most any kind of principle or votes he
may require in working any scheme for the
monopoly or his friends here at home, while,
in the Legislature. Horace Mansur is the
only one on the whole ticket of any note who
has not had a pull at the udder, but he is
we'll qualified for the position from the fact OF
his having son and a son-n-law in the en-
ploy of Stanford 4 Co., whom he is anxious
should be promoted, and to accomplish this
end, it is thought he will be willing dupe
and follower of the dictates Of his lord and
master, Leland Stanford. We have not
room to speak of the other candidates this
week, as We find to do justice TO these hon
orabe { y men requires more space than we
had counted on. We invite an investigation
into the merits of these pap-sucking boys,
and on election day vote for them as they
deserve.

MIR. WASHER DECLINES.

The following letter from Mr.. F. Wastier
has been received by the Central Commit
tee. We are proud of Mr.. Wastiers
hearty support, but are sorry that gentle
man 80 honest and reliable on the present
important issues, as he is known to be, can
not accept the nomination rendered to him.
He would make an excellent Treasurer, and
would certainly be elected. But if he can't,
he can't, and we trust the Committee will
fill the vacancy with candidate equally as
good in every particular, fsucil be possible,
and, though Mr.. Wastier possessed all the
essentials, still it would be fattery that a
sensible man would not appreciate to say
there was not another as good We believe
there is, and believe also that such man
will be selected by the Committee. His
letter speaks the principles of true lnde-
pendent as follows:
LINCOLN, AUGUST 6, 1878.

lutions, and fully endorse them, and will ear

friends went to headquarters (Lyon ct al) to
see what chance Mr.. B. would have to get
the nomination, setting forth his soundness
on the important issues. ellis chances are
good" says Soapy Uyon); "I'll 60 for
him." when he knew in his heart that such
a man would have no show at all in their
monopoly convention, and knew also that he
himself was on the slate for that position
and would be nominated. Mr.. BIS
friends went away elated with hope for
the success of their candidate. The con-
vention came, Mr.. Bancroft's name was
proposed. He was called on for speech.
He made the above. Lyons name was al
so before the convention. He did not with
draw for the man he had promised to sup
port. A vote was taken. Bancroft got
FIVE votes; Lyon was the nominee, as was
intended from the first. Mr.. Bancroft went
to Mr.. Lyon and asked him for an explana-
ton. Mr.. Lyon said, "I1l tell you, Ban
croft, your speech beat you. l was going
to withdraw in your favor until | heard your
speech, and l thought had better run, as
you would be beaten anyhow" Mr.. B.
asked how, or what part, or in what way
the speech beat him. To this he got no
satisfactory answer. He went home, wrote
out lis speech, handed it to Soapy, asked
him to publish it, just as it is above, and
explain in what way or what in the speech
beat him. This was getting Soapy in a
corner He tried to persuade Mr.. B. out
of the notion of publ shing the speech, say
ing they already had a hard fight, and it
would injure the cause. Mr.. B. persisted.
Soapy dallied and finally refused. MIR.
B. was determined the people of Placer
County should know what beat him, 60 lie
brought it here, and here it is for the people
to read and Judge for themselves where such
a speech will incapacitate man for position
on ticket, about how much anti-mo-
noply principle the party contains.

Coon NEws.-From private sources we
receive the most hatterng news regarding
the success of the Independent move and
Hioket. One correspondent from Michigan
Bluff says: Everything looks bright up
here" Another from the same place says:
"The action of the ring COW ention is not in
dorsed by whom should be considered its
main props. There is much dissatisfaction
evinced and decentralization along the whole
line. 1t is funny, if not charitable, to hear
and look on" From the southwestern part
Of the county a friend says: Everybody
here are condemnng the action of the ring
convention, and declare almost to man that
they will vote The Peoples Independent tick
ct. All admit they have the most compe-
tent candidates, were there no other consid-
eration." From near Lincoln: "All goes
lovely-everything for Independence and re-
form, nothing for ring, monopoly and corrup-
tion." These are glad tidings, which should
fill the heart of every honest man and lover
Of bis country with joy. They are harbin-
gers Of peace, prosperity and happiness, which
will be again realized when the fight is over
and good men once more rule our country
and govern our home affairs.

q ratification meeting, too etc. The lying
craven tknows that about half the delegates
to the Independent convention were Re-

Republicans were there" The poor, beg
ging craven ought to know that every de-
cent Republican will not vote for a candi-
date that tells nasty lies, and lies that all
know have 30 weight with any one. Such
