From a Utica letter to the New York |
Herald we copy the following setting !
forth the relative claims and merits CT the |
prominent Democratic candidates Tor
governor in State that is certain to go |
Democratic. The writer Of the letter IN
question certifes to this in the course OF
his communication, in which we lind
the following bit OF interview with
prominent citizen:
"What do the people you have met
with say about the Presidency?n
"They say only one thing, aud that is
that Tilden will carry the State by sixty
thousand n ajority."
"DO you credit that statementp
"I DO most honestly, and have rea-
son to. have met numbers of Repub-
licans who have ayowed their disgust
with the present administration. In
Sullivan, Broome, Chenango and Onon-
dsga counties the Democrats are work.
ing hard for Tilden. In the southern
tier OF counties the rilden feeling is very
strong. Cbemung, TiOga and Delaware
are sure for TildeD. In short, they are
working everywhere for TiideD."
CLARhSON NJ POTTEh.
Passing beyond the boundaries Of New
York city and county, and advancing
through WeJtchester, Putnam, Dutchess
and Columbia counties, the Democrats
IN the river towns an parts OF the lnte'
rior might be set down as favorable TO
the nomination Of Congressman Clark
son n. Potter, of Westminster, for gov
ernor. Yet, while some favor his nomi-
nation, others aver that 1t would De
throwing too many honors in one part
of the State to take b7th the Democratic
candidate for President and the Demo-
cratic candidate for governor from that
section, HenCe, while admitting his
eminent fitness for the position, they
think he can afford to wait awhile and
serve his State and country little Ion
ger in congress, where his services have
been so marked and valuable. he will,
they say do as well ss candidate for gov
ernOr three years hence as at the pres
ant time, and in the meantime allow
some other name to be introduced as the
Democratic candidate for governor Of
the Empire State. Nevertheless, Clark
son n. Potter may be the nominee, with
strong probabilities of his election.
HoRATIo SEYMOUR.
All along the line OF the Central rail-
road, through the counties of Rensselaer,,
and from Albany westward, through
Schenectady, Montgomery, Fulton,
Herkimer, Oneida This home), Madison,
Onondaga, Cayuga, and some other
counties in central and western New
York, you will hear Democrats talk in
this wise: "With HoratiO Seymour as
the Democratic candidate for governor,
the State OF New York will be carried
for the Democratic ticket with greater
majority than when, in 1874, Silas
Wright was induced to run for COVER
nor on the Polk and Dallas ticket.
With Tilden, Hendricks and Seymour ss
stapdard-bearers the Democracy OF New
York need never think Of such word
| as 'fail.'u
LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR DoRSHEIMER
| is q prominent candidate fer the Demo-
| cratic nomination. He is presumed to
| ba Governor Tilden's first choice, and
that carries some weight with many.
! His geographical position, hailiug as he
dOts from the extreme western portion
| of the State, and Tilden hailing from
| the extreme eastern, as was happily re-
| marked by Westchester county peek
| skill) Democrat, would present good
| illustration Of the adage that "extremes
| often maet,n s aid another Democrat:
| az like Lieutenant Governor DOrsheim-
er. l was at st. Louis, and heard lead
! the resolutions-the new declaration Of
| civil independence and reform. He read
| it liKe hero. Ned Forrest, in his palm
| lest days, could not have done better.
| He suited the action to the word and the
word to the action, never O7erstepping
| the nodesty of nature. He seemed to
believe the sentiments he uttered. AS
an uph0lder of the Democratic national
| platform, believe 10 better man could
be named as successor to Governor
Tilden. But, after all, he would be pre-
! ferred as q member of congress, He
would make q splendid one; and that is
the opinion of young Henry Richmond,
upon whose broad shoulders the mantle
| of Dean, his father, has fallen"
"MANToN MARBLE
ia a yery strong man," said q Democrat
lust returned from an extensive tour
through the western counties. "The
nomi0stion lies between Dorsheimel
and Msrble.n "Whst do the people say
about Manton Marble? Why do they
want him for governorH because the
people now demsnd intelligence and
honesty in their public servants. Man
ton Marble is g gentleman OF culture
and refinement. He has enlightened
the masses OF the people through the
columns of his paper. AID newspaper
men are coming more aud more before
the public ss representative men. We
have seen several instances OF that kind
lately. and in Manton Marble the people
believe thy have found man of tbs
