The ISSUE IN NEW YORK.

Now that the October elections have
resulted 80 very favorably, all eyes are
turned 10 the contest in New York,
with the purpose of discovering what
may be in store for the Republican
party there The issue i'm that State
Republicans shall win with Cornell Ol
the Democrats with Robinson. as
whether or not Til,icn will have the
support of the New York Democracy
in the nominating convention, next
year, and receiving that, whether or
not he will receive the Electoral vote
of the State. These latter are the two
vital points i'm the campaign now in
progress, and very naturally it brings
The Republicans and large element
Of the Democratic party into sympa
thy and cooperation with each other
The latter are willing To take their
chances Of losing the vote of the State
for their Presidential candidate, next
year aside from Tilden) i'm order Ia
cripple Tilden now by defeating Rob.
inson. The situation is certainly very
critical for the Democracy. Bat il
matters not To Tilden whether the
Democratic party goes up or down, 50
that he and his policy prevails. He is
determined TO i'e President. even if he
ruins his party and his old political
associates. He is everything for Til
den, and the devil take the rest" His
wcli-known selfishness has become
disgusting Ia his partisans, who begin
Ia believe that the best course for them
Ia pursue is To kick Sammy out of the
camp. and thus bring the discordant
elements of their party together again.
They think that in view of all the cir
cumstances the best way TO accomplish
This is To vote this fall with the Re
puhlicans, and hence they are desert
ing in large numbers 10 the Repubii-
can ranks.
Thus the Republican prospects are
Ihf-t eiltbttTJSlilS u" ittie eiput vi
opposition 10 Cornell. which appeared
at first, is now lost to view. and in No
,cmher the Republicans will present
I, s"lid front.
\ Republican victory In New York
which certainly must enSuel will he
al vital Importance Ia the country at
large. Ii will result not only i'm laying
out the great Democratic plO!ter for
the Presidency hut ensure the State
beyond peradvrnture for the Repn5-
lican candidate in lSSa. And the Dem-
"rratic party cannot expect I" carry
the country for their candidate with
out New York. The loss of New York
Ia them will certainly bring irretriev-
able disaster. for 10y Ho possible combi-
nation of circumstances can they make
the South 50 solid as Ia overcome this
io>s. They may murder all who dare
10 call themselves Republicans in the
South. and give that country the solid
,ty of lump of iead-even then they
cannot accomplish the election of their
man. Surely the outlook for Tilden
and Democracy is 10y no means as
bright "a il might be.
