INTERVIEW With EX-GOVERNOR SEYMOUR.


York suppose VIC take the asprants seriatim they
occur 10 the mind OF observer in connection with
other political facts and incidents bearing upon the
present political campaign In the Sate-to commence
WITH
cLARKsoN POTTER.
Passing beyond the boundaries OF New York city and
county ana advancing through Westcbester. Putnam,
Duchess and Columbia counties the democrats the
river towns and parts OF the interior might be set
down as favorable to the nomination OF Congressman
Clarkson N Potter OF westchester, for Governor
YET, while some favor his nomination. others that
Il would be throwing too many honors in part of
tho State take both the democratic candidate for
President and the democratic candidate for Governor
from that section Hence While admitting his emi-
nent fitness for the position, they think he afford
TO wait awhile and servo his State and country little
longer in Congress-, where his services have been
marked ana valuable. He will they say, do as well as
candidate for Governor three years hence at the
present time, and in the meantime allow other
to be introduced the democratic candidate for
Governor OF The Empire State Nevertheless, Garrison
N Potter may be the nominee with strong probabili-
ties OF his election.

'But will he stand the 1re?"
''That's the question: and very important one. or
course there Can be no new honor in holding an Office
that he alrcady I'll cd ably, and whether he will
allow himself be called from his cherished retiracy

matter that himself alone can answer.
'But he has before him the example of Sias Wright,
who had already declined the candidacy for Vice Pres.
dent and accepted the democratic nomination for Gov
Of the State. without his name tho ticket
is there not very strong reason to doubt whether
the democrats would have carried the State for the
Presidential candidates in lSl4?"
ssThat Seymour would strengthen the ticket there is
no doubt But Is it certain that his is pro.
