POLITICAL NOTES.

Bay" 1 am one of the people," says
Mr.. Tilden. You are Sammy, you are.
One of the worst kind of people
HaWk-Eye.
Bay The general opinion of the coun-
try, as indicated by the newspapers. is,
that the "Great Fraud" boot is on the
other leg.-N Y. Commercial AdUer-
tiSer.
RSy- Should the Democratic party
cease TO exist" says MIR. Thurman,

thy name. Buffalo EGpreSS.
Ray" The Southern Democracy appear
to have "bloody shirt" which they
are afraid the Republicans will flaunt.
A guilty conscience needs no accuser.
-UttcG Republican.
Dsy~ Pelton is a poor man, Marble is
far from rich, Woolley subssts on the
uncertain gains of the lobby. Does any
one imagine that either of these were
going to draw upon their bankers for
$130,OO0 to secure Mr.. Tilden's cleo
tion Toledo Commercial.
Dag The New York Sun figures the
net Republican gain in four States,
Ohio, Indiana, Iowa and West Virginia,
to be $4,000, and it thinks these results
will attract the notice of the country
"because of their important bearing
upon the next contest for the Presiden-
cy." This means that in the opinion
of the San the tidal wave is rising for
Republican victory.
R9s| All the disclosures made by the
Tribune 90 to show that Tildsn was
more desperate and shameless old ras-
cal than his former friend and political
associate, William M. Tweed. The
evidence furnished by the Tribune cor
roborates the stories in circulation two
years ago about buying the Returning
Board and an Elector.-N Y. CONNER
cial.
RsE~ Parthian shot from the Tribune:
"There is no occasion for haste, men
and bretherni Mr.. Tilden, Mr.. Marble,
Mr.. Coyle, Mr.. Woolley, Mr.. Weed and
the other coparceners will first have a
fair opportunity to state urlder oath,
and subject TO the pains and penalties
which attach to perjury, what they
know about the cipher dispatches. 1t
is quite possible that further evidence
may then seem superhuous.
Bay~ The New York World, the lead
ing Democratic organ in the East, says
of Tilden's letter concerning the cipher
kilograms that it is "too long for a
denial and too short for an explana-
ton" at denies only what needed
no denial" says the World, "and ex-
plains only what needed no explana-

papers and politicians who are willing
to stand by their leader of two years
ago in this hour of his trial is pitiably
small.
Ba- Gov. Hampton is making speech
es in South Carolina, with the usual
accompaniment of rifle clubs, or what
johnson Hagood would call sinews. In
one of his speeches he called attention
to his efforts as Governor, and remark
ed that he chad tried to obliterate the
color line" A voice in the crowd said
"And you've done it." If he hasn't
already done it, he will before this
campaign is over, provided the bull
dozers don't die of overwork before
election day.-N. Y. Tribune.
BSy- Some of the Democratic papers
are making merry over the fact that
the stories of Southern outrages against
the blacks are never heard excepting
during political campaign, when they
, may be hoped to influence public opin
| ion in the North. But the explanation
is that the negroes are never assaileC
until it becomes desirable to frighteI
, them away from the polls. Even ku
= klux ruffian has no desire to kill 9
black man without some such purpose
as the intimidation of negro voters sc
7 that they will not hurt the Democratic
| party.-FhiladetphiG Bulletin.
