The NEXT DEnooRArIc CANDIDATE
FOB THE PRESIDENCY.
Gov. Sam Tilden, a few months
ago, was confident of being The next
Democratic csndida'e for the Presi- /
dency. He had it oil fixed. HIS pro-
pramme vas TO help beat Allen in |
Ohio, which would settle him; &c
help elect Penhing in Pennsylvania,
which be could afford TO do, Pershing
having no Presidential aspiration,
and then 70 make his name the rally
ing cry of the Democracy OF New
York, which Was 10 carry the Siste
by 10000. A pretty programme,
Was i, not. Blu, somehow il didn't
work. Allen was bsrel, beaten in
Ohio, Pershina was unmercifully bea.
ten in Pennsylvania, and the cry Of
.Tllden and Reform was beaten 2o,-
600 in the city Of New York, and rs
capped defeat in the S,afe by only
/. 900. Where does that leave the
Tilden: Allen IS as
strong as ever be was, and If there
is q man on earth who has earned the
undying hatred of Western Demo
rats tha, man is TIlden Pennsyl-
rani. Democracy owes him nothing,
Ior With his help they were beaten
cut OF their boots, and no man from
New York need enter the ring, who
ha. Tsmmanv stuck 10 bin, and who
came so near sinking his party in the
STATE. Esi, Tilden. If he ever had
j chance i, is gone. Small men
should never undertake large com
,inations. The Democracy must
COX elsewhere for . candidate.
And when il comes TO point the
people OF New York are not as fond
d the Democracy as they were on
general principles. Now that
TAXES AgE HI0HER THAN EVER,
hey remember that the citv has been
under Democratic rule for years, and
or whatever is bad IN the govern
nen,, which is to say, the entire
that party is RESPONSE
ole. When business was booming,
md when the property owner had
merely to pu. his fingers on his prop.
er'y, they did not care for taxes. But
now il is quite different. Rents are
down half, and thousands Of bull
iings are standing empty, while tax
IS are mounting up frigh,fnlly. The
taxes have to be paid whether bnsi.
ness yields profit or not. and whether
the buildings rent or not. And now
that they are worried To raise money
to pay their taxes, they begin TO find
ths, il pays to pay some attention to
politics, aud the more men think the
less Democracy suits them. 1t was
this feeling tha' overthrow TAmnany
this fall-it is this feeling that will
give the State TO the Republicans
next gear, sure. The rings that have
plundered this city and Brooklyn own
The Democratic party, and tax paw
ers find ,ha, they can only kill the
rings by killing the party. Democ
rscy in New York is not a corpse
vet, but the desth-rattle is in its
throat. Lot US make q judicious
nomination, and there will be no
trouble about carrying New York.
BEEcHEa
may be ~ popular as ever in his own
church, bu, he is no, outside OF that
body. He attended the Moody and |
Sankey meetings quite regularly up
last Saturday. The clergymen pres
ent on that day were invited to re-
main after the meeting, to consult as
to the best means of carrying on the
work, and Beecher stayed with the |
resi-, but, alas. he was coldly receiv.
ed, and many Of the reverends did |
not spead to him at all. He ha, not
been at the r nk since, In his ser. |
