The New York World speaks rather say agely of the folly of making the cry of ''fraud" the leading cry of Democratic politics; and scouts the notion that the people of the United States are not bound to obey the present executive of the na- tion:
 If any respectable democrat has the least doubt left in his mind as to the damnable folly and::wickedness of attempt. ing to make the title to the Presidency a political issue in this country at this time, we advise him to read and ponder the fol lowing deliverance of Citizen Conroy, one of the chiefs of the so-called "working mans meeting" Tn Tompkins square, and the colleague of Mir. Swinton, of the Susa, In the management of that interesting as- semblage. ''I tell Mir. Hayes, said this intelligent citizen, addressing an audience at the Germania Assembly rooms "that he don't represent the working classes of America. Let no man obey the mandates issued by him. He is not President by the voice of the people. but by chicanery and fraud. Therefore don't obey his proclamations. If he attempts to call 75, 900 men we will all enlist, and then let him take care that he does not have to leave Washington as Louis Philippe left | France in 1S48." s If the President should find it necessa- ". as he probably will not, to call out | 75. 900 men, We trust the recruiting officers will keep an eye on Citizen Conroy, Citi- zen Swinton and the rest of them, for a month or two in the ranks under good drill-sergeant may possibly make better ''citizens" of them than they are otherwise likely to become. But meanwhile, and in any event, every honest and law abiding man who calls himself democrat has the upshot here clearly presented to him of the poisonous drivel which handful of twaddling demagogues have been trying to make the country accept as the politi- cal creed of great national party!

The most serious disturb. ances of the latter part of the week were at Chicago, where the police and mob fought in several places the estimate of killed and wounded being placed by many of the papers as high as one hundred.
