Presidential PROSPECTS,.

The prospect for November is not smpli-
fed by the October elections. Hitherto it
has been presumed that Indiana would cast
its electoral vote for the Democratic candi-
date, and that Ohio would vote for Governor
Hayes. There is no doubt,as to Ohio. But
the success of the intlationist Williams, by q
majority probably smaller than the vote cast
for the Greenbacl1 ticket by former Republic
cans. leaves the result in Indiana in great
doubt, and it is not at all improbable that
the DISAGREEMENT or disgust Of Democrats,
and their failure to vote, may give the State
to the Republicans in November, as like
causes did in 1872. West Virginia only
proves that the South is solid, as was expect.
ed. There is y possibility that North Caro-
lima may be wrested from, the Democrats.
but not strong probability. 1t is probable
that vote sufficiently full and honest to in
sure Democratic defeat may be obtained in
South Carolina or Louisiana, but it would lie
folly to rely upon that result. 1t may safely
be assumed, as a basis Of all calculations, that
tine Republicans cannot count with confidence
upon single State formerly slaveholding.
On the other hand, the Democrats can not
claim as certain single Northern State.
Elections in Maine. Vermont and Ohio show
that old-fashioned Republican maiorities are
to be expected from the rural districts
throughout the North. Ii Wisconsin was
thought doubtful it must be classed as certain
for Hayes in view of the maiorities in North
ern Ohio. Since the election in Maine no
one doubts about New Hampshire. Coora-
do has spoken for itself. Nevada is Il Repub-
llcan State. and the chances certainly favor
the Republicans in California since the zeal

Tilden as a Railroad Ring Master.
Now the question arises, how is it that
this party that has been beaten so often has
the presumption to come forward at this
time and discard all loyal alliance and make
a calculation that they are going to carry
this election? Why, they have formed q
new alliance. they have united with the
most corrupt combination of men shat ever
existed in this country-I mean the railroad
rings, (cheers, l-and they expect that there
is power enough in these monopolists to car
ny them through this election. 1t is the
moneyed power they are seeking. They
think the people can be purchased, and they
propose to raise the purchase money out of
THESE RAILROAD RINGS,
of which we hear so much in tliis country.
Now some years ago was started railroad
towards Galena, called the Galena e Chi
cago Union Railroad. It was the first rail
road ever started. 1t was the peoples road.
1t was made by the people and for their
benefit. Every man along the line took a
share; if he had not the money he worked it
out himself. The road was great success.
We got it as far as Freeport in one direction
had got it well to Cedar Rapids in another
direction. The road paid a dividend semi
annually all along. 1t was considered as
good as government bonds now are. Trust
funds. the funds Of widows and orphans
were Invested in its stock. The men who
managed it were a set of economical men.
Their salaries were very low. The president
got about 1000 for his services, and the
lawyer who did the whole business of the
road, now your Corporation Counsel, Elliot
Anthony, he had $4,000 a year, and every
thing else was done upon an economical
basis. | was a member OF the Auditing
Committee. Every bill that was contracted
on that road passed through my hands, and
had opay for my services. If there was
a cause of complaint along the line, the peo-
pie knew exactly whom to speak to, and
when there was an annual election, every
man who had one share had a free ticket fol
his wife and family, and came here and
voted. The vote got to be merely q matter
| of form ard no attention was paid to the
collection of proxies. AZ one time whilst
we supposed the thing was all right, no com
| plant was made from any quarter. But or
came Samuel j. Tilden with q lot of mer
| from New York City and stepped into the
Office, and about fifteen minutes thereafter
the road was wiped out, and was ever after
wards known as the Northwestern. [Cheer:
and laughter.] The documents were drawn
in the handwriting of Sam Tilden; the whole
thing was manipulated by him; and now j.
! you want to see the merits of that consolida
ton, how it was that those men had claim
| upon the trust funds-the funds of the wi
dows and orphans that were invested in tina
road,-i will read it to you: Tilden bough
up, for mere nominal sum, first the bank
rupt concern, called the Illinois & 'Wisconsil
/ Railroad Company another bankrupt con
cern-the st. Paul Sc Fon du Lac Railroa,
Company; another one-the Peninsula

The Democrats, if they secure every elee-
toral vote in the South, have still to secure IL
more in order to elect their candidate. This
they cannot do without the IS votes of New
York, so it remains true, as we stated months
ago, that New York is absolutely necessary
to the Democrats, but not to the Republic
cans. Whenever the public credit has been
assailed or danger apprehended from the
South, the Republicans have always prevail
ed in the Northern States. The greater
probability that the South will be united, the
greater probability that the Democrats may
be beaten, not in New York only, but in ey-
cry other doubtful State, and that even with
New York they may fail. Elections prior
to the recent developments at the South are
therefore not sure indications of the result
in November. The Democrats require not
only New York, but II more electoral votes,
and even with New York and Indiana, if they
miss a single Southern State they are beaten.
But there is at this time every reason to believe
that they will be beaten in New York. With
the aid OF many thousands of Liberals
and Independents, Mr.. Tilden polled 416,0O0
votes in 1874, while in spite Of the opposition
Of the Liberals, 1000 votes were polled for
Grant IN 1872. I'm this contest the entire
Republican strength will be polled; it will
be reinforced by thousands Of Liberals of
1872, and will also be reinforced by thons-
aAflS .af Democrats who distrrst the position
OF their party with respect to the finances
and the public honor. Similar changes ap-.
pear in other Northern States. The Repub-
licans have only % votes to gain even if they
are defeated in every Southern State. Indi-
ana with two other doubtful States, or New
York alone, would give them the requisite
number. They will naturally concentrate
their efforts upon New York, for their pros
poets there are excellent. and victory there
is victory everywhere. But they are not
compelled as the Democrats are, to stake ev-
within the range of possibility that, while the
Democrats are straining every nerve to win
New York, the Republicans may carry
Indiana, California, and either New Jersey,
Connecticut. or single Southern State.
