The Popular Majority.
-garn IN. Albaar Evening JaarnaLl

lForm tlIs Albany Evening Journal)
Very much is made b. Governor
'flden's friends Of the fact that he
has popular majority Of 100000 or
more. But whore AMI how does lie
get II
lie gets Is, 1000 Of it from Georgia
How Because Republicans are
practically disfranohised. -Four years
ago the Democratic majority was ohlf
10000. But since then the policy Of
intimidation has prevailed, and the
majorities roll ap 10 5000 or $4,000.
They mean not so much real MAORI
ties, but simply that the Republicans
cannot or DO not vote.
He gets another $4,000 Of it from
Kentucky. That Is double the legi' i
mate Democratic majority. There i
not the same intimidation in Ken
lucky as in Georgia ; but as the ma
iority is sure, the inducement to
bring out the Republican vote is
wanting. To assume that Kentucky
has rs, 900 more votes for Tilden than
for Hayes would be manifestIy wrong
it is simply not full vote And
Georgia and Kentucky together fur
nish $50, 900 ofTildea's $4,000 ma
jority'
Again, he gets 10000 more Of it
from Alabama and Mississippi, both
Of which are Republican States upon
q fair vote. That portion Of his ma
jority, like the larger part Of what he
gets from Georgia, is essentially a
pervcrsion. Add Tennessee with its
10000, Texas with its 10000 aud Ar
kansas with its $4,000 and you have
the considerable weights Oh Mr. Til
denis side. In New York his MAORI
ty comes from sections like the Five
Points, and, throwing them aside, the
popular majority would be over
whelmingly for Hayes.
In Kentucky there are 1896 white
voters who cannot write. In Georgia
there are 81, 500 IN Missouri, 34,780;
in Virginia, 27,G46 in Tennessee,
37,7l2 in Tixas, 1906 and there
is where Mr.. Tilden gets his MAORI
ties. In the whole country there are
726,275 white males Of p years and
over who cannot write, and Mr.. Til
den's popular majority among them
would be very much over 100000.
Numbers count i'll the ballot-box,
but they do not always count in the
scales OF solid. valuable judgment.
Go to the haunts Of vice and igro-
rance poll the slums and the cutters,
call the rolls Of the Mackerelvilles Of
the North and the Andersonvlle of
the South, and Mr.. TiIden has large
popular majority. But count the
churches, count the institutions Of
learning, count the reading communi-
ties, count St. Lawrence instead Of
the Five Points. count the Eleven Ii
and Fourteen Wards OF Albany in
stead of the Third and the Eighth.
and the popular majority is immense
~ for Hayes.
Measure the vote BY character ana
it is far stronger for Hayes than,
measured by numbers, i il for Tilden.

Az English scientist expresses The
opinion that it is often dangerous to
sleep ii the full moonshine, though
not for the reasons popularity as
signed. During the full moon the
sky is frequently clear Of clouds At
such times there is rapid radiation Of
heat from the earth, and person
sleeping out-of-doors is likely to suffer
chill which may produce serious
c0nse 0nenCes.
