comparison of the administrations OF Gov
Morgan and GOV. Tilden furnishes some instructive
facts The Albany Journal says that in SCI the laDos
n, the Governors Office were ncOmparaby greater then
tban now Gov Morgan and bis office did more work III
smonh than Gov Tilden has done in six Ana YET inc
entire cost of the office for year under Gov Morgan
was less than half Of what 1t is under Gov lueh ior
the same length Of time. Gov. Morgan made no sueh
loud boasts as Gov Tilden But he was true iahlu'
frugal upright Governor. He made the taxes OhIy ONT
half What they under Tlden. He made the expenses
of the Governors office less than onehalI what thy are
trr economy and reform than lden has done, ana the
people cannot do better than Try him again.
The BiBghdmtOn Republican says: mus 1ar
only one objection been made to the candidacy ottho
Hon. sherman s Rogers for the office OF Lieutenant
Governor The objection comes from Democratic sources
snd "a IN the effect that Mr. Rogers voted for bill to
employ the convcts and paupers in the mechanical De
partments OF the State Prisons such bill, we arn Is
very proper one If the inmates of State Prisons are
kept in idenes the of the people have to pay Tor
their idleness But If take up the line OF argument
and admit for the moment that prisoners ought not 10
enter into competition with outside labOrers-then we
make short work OF the Democratic charges from the
fact that Senator Rogers had the company OF the Demo
cratic Senators. Starbuck, Gerard, Hammond, ana 81
John: and OF the Democratic Asselnblynen sherman,
Halliday and Weiant. All OF these Democratic genie,
men voted with senator Rogers in favor OF the AFORESAID
bin. The bin supported by the most lhnuehuhI
Democrats In both Houses, and tie governors Neto Wis
sustained by only IL Assembymen and three senators
