Excess of Republican reserve 26,631.
Evidently there is enough reserve tc
draw from to secure q victory. But can
we get out that reserve9 Can we utilize
it and make it servicable2 1t is of nc
value otherwise; and upon the solution
of that problem depends our success OF
defeat.
Judging from the past two years, all
other things being equal, it would
scarcely do to predicate success upon the
result. But the indifference of Repub-
licans, while it administered rebuke to
its own, also encouraged the Democracy
to anticipated more from them than they
were willing to concede. The election
of so many confederate officers to the
next Congress, by the Democracy has
occasioned the ''second sober thought.
the subjection of the Democracy to the
designs of the papaey, in its war upon
the public schools, has given rise to re.
hection among Republicans whether il
is wise to remain longer inactive, and
permit party welded to evil to control
the destinies of the State, especially
with its record of the past two years be-
fore them. It's professions of economy
offset by its ruthless raids upon the
treasury; its professions of honesty off
set by its practices of corruption and
the hawking about of Legislative votes
at any price from five dollars to onehun-
dred, as in the case of Wood county;
its opposition to Capitalization of power
offset by its overthrow of local govern
ment at the demands of ring of specu-
lators, as in the case of Toledo; its pro-
fessions of equality to all, offset by its
chartered privileges to Catholics, as in
the Geghan bill-have awakened Repub
icans to o sense of the situation and a
determination to seek reformation of
abuses through the Republican party ~
the only organization which has ever
had the fortitude to expose its own
wrong doers and punish its own Offend
ers. 57 oca -r .Ir-f.T4rr
As an evidence of this we point with
pride to the action of the recent State
Convention. The manoeuvres Of poIiti-
clans were utterly useless, and no ticket
that they could suggest cohld make
head against the the determination of
the people. Politicians could officer the
convention but there their power ended.
The people had determined the rest,
and though announcement after an
nouncement was made that ex Governor
Hayes was not candidate, and would
not accept a nomination as against
Judge Taft, they ignored the informa-
tion, set it aside as gratuitous, and called
for the man who had won their conf |
dence and retained their regard.
We come, then, to the conclusion that
the Republican reserve force can be
brought out, and not only can be, but
will be. The same spirit which sent
the people up to Columbus to demand
the nomination of Hayes, will turn them
out from every nook and Granny to Sc
cure his election. There is no stain up.
on his character, no question as to his
record. He sought not the Office but
rather sought to avoid it. The Office
has sought him, and the people will see
that votes are not wanting to elevate
him to the position he is so ably quail
fed to fill. SAD

yielded to the pressure when assured by
its party leaders that its Legislation had

that Of Pennsylvania s ,5?i, ,051. In the
terth gear preceding 1870 the rate of
incyVase i'll New York was nearly 10
per cent, aud tirat Of Pennsylvania over
q per cent, If the same rates should
be observed for three more decades, the
popalttion of New York in 1900 will be
G,3t1, ,G71 and that of Pennsyl lvania g.
2GS, 7S7, difference of only 1854.
The elements of increase are apparent
ly in favor of Pennsylvania. Her great
gain, outside Of Philadelphia, is in the
mining and manufacturing districts. In
another table OF the statistics tits shown
that while the popul alton OF Lancaster
increased from 1860 to 1870, at the rate
of less than Is per cent, that of Pitts
burg, exclusive of additions by annex
ation), increased at the rate of 75 per
cent, that of Allegheny at the rate of
80 per cent, that of Wilkesbarr4 at the
rate af l90 per cent Scranton, $50;
Titusville, 1872; Lock Haven, 100;
Williamsprot, 1873; Altoona, 1875; Ches-
ter, 104, and New Carte, Lawrence
county, a coal and iron mining place,
227 per cent. The rate of increase in
the smaller places does not have much
effect on the total population but it is
worthy of notice that the population OF
three such cities as Pittsburg, ALE
gheny, and Scranton, has been increas-
ed, exclusive of additions.by annexation,
from 81, 142, in 1860, to 1885 of in
1870. The population of these three
places has been more than doubled in

A correspondent of the Cincinnati
Commercial writing from New York,
says: 81 have got into the inside of the
mystery about the calling of Bowen as
witness in the Beecher case, 1t is this
Neither side wishes to cal Bowen, for
reason that both sides are anxious to
have the privilege of cross examining
him. 1t is on this account that the op-
posing counsel are working sharply
against each other in regard to him.
Brother Bowen is sure to be bad wit
ness for the side that calls him, which
ever side it be, having something to
say against both Tilton and Beecher.
But the party which has him under
cross-examination will have the advan-
tage of him, get deepest into him, and
be best able to analyze his testimony.
This explanation of the Bowen mystery
is not a fancy of mine, but was told me
by an individual who knows all about
it,"

NEW YORK AND PENNsYLVANIA.-
In the second annual report of the
Bureau of Statistics of Pennsylvania
there is an interesting table showing
the movement of population In the
States of New York and Pennsylvania
for eighty years. In 1890 New York
had a population of $40, 1870, and Penn
sylyania population of 434, 373. In
20 years New York distanced Penna.
increasing the population at the
rate of 73 per cent in the first decade,
while Pennsylvania increased only at
the rate of 30 per cent, In 1920 New
York had population of 1872, Ill,
Pennsylvania /, 047,5O The rate OF
increase for the preceding ten years had
been 43 per cent, for New York and
20G per cert. for Pennsylvania. The
percentage of increase declined there
after for both States but New York
continued 20 gain more rapidly than
Pennsylvania for two more decades, and
then Pennsylvania began slowly to re,
cover her former position. In 1870 tht
population Of New York was 3S2, 1jD
