WHAT OF THE FIGHT IN THE EN-
PIRE STATE2

The Republican wire-pullers Of New
York, directed by the lecherous Conkling,
have organized victory for the Democratic
party, and thrown it directly at its feet.
The Democracy need but stoop and pick it
up. But it wont stoop II seems bent up
on kicking the victory aside, and plunging
into defeat. With perfect harmony in its
ranks, vigorous campaign would enable
it to carry the State by majority Of TWEEN
ty-fye thousand votes. Cornell, the Repub-
lican candidate for Governor, is Conkling's
pet and tool, but exceedingly obnoxious to
the honest rank and file. Murmurs Of discon.
tent and signs of displeasure, because of
his nomination, are heard and seen all over
the State. Influential members Of the party
declare themselves outraged by the nomi-
nation through the public prints, and even
Republican journals give voice to the com
plants. An old Republican, writing to the
Evening Post says: 81 am salts
fed the nomination Of Mr.. Cornell
was brought about by trickery and machine
management, by the aid of that arch con-
triver and wire-puller, Senator Conkling,
The nominee is not fit for the office and
thousands Of Republicans will refuse to
support him. Another Republican Of
good standing writes: 'The discomfort
over the nomination OF Cornell is wide
spread. ! sincerely desire the success of
the Republican party; but have no use
for such Republicanism as is represented
| py Mr.. Mr.. Cornell. believe his defeat is
the highest duty of all who, would keep
alive pare national Republican party,
and TO that end ] shall labor

TRASHY LITERATURE.

Quite every obseryant person has marked
the enervating effect of the trashy, sensa-
tionsl literature thrown into the hands of
children through the medium Of such pub
llcations as Leslies' Boys and Girls Weekly;
the American Young Gentleman, and the
Dime Novels to be found on the counters Of
every book store in the country. The habit
ual young reader of such stuff, becomes
morose, and when called out of the realms
of fancy in which be almost constantly
revels, is peeyish and unhappy, His intel
lect becomes bluGted, and he forms a dis
taste, amounting to adherence, for all that
is useful and practical The New Or.
leans Times, touching this subject, says:
THE influence of dime literature is very
apparent in the city of New York Every
once in while the police run across nest
of boys who have banded together for the
purpose of committing crimes of one kind
or another. Lately a band Of these young
CRIMINALS, who had their headquarters
about the Grand Central depot, was cap
tured. The leader is about fifteen years of
! age, and the ages Of The boys who make up
his band range between seven and nine
wears. Thos, o--,,,o-a ~. ~-,~el,cs IN picking
pockets and in robbing school children.
This band had. bound Itself together by a
most horrible oath, the form Of which they
found in one ofthese pernicious dime novels.
There is a law against the sale of impure
and obscene literature, and there ought
certainly to be a law prohibiting the sale of
dime novels, and Of all literature of the
dime novel class, These pernicious stories
which raise thieves, robbers and murderers
TO the dignity Of heroes, and which make
crime more attractive than virtue are
powerful agents in increasing the number
of our criminals. Certainly, something
ought to be done to keep the minds Of our
boys from being poisoned"

Col. ROBERT IEGERsoIL, in recent let
ter on the currency question, says ave
are told, however, that the government can
create money. This deny The govern
lucue produces nothing; it raises no wheat,
no corn; it digs no gold, no silver. 1t is
not producer, it is consumer. The
government is perpetual pauper that has
to be supported by the people. 1t is con-
stantly passing the contribution plate.
The man who passes it admit has a mus
ket with him, but at the same time the
government is supported by these contrib
utions. You can not live upon the promise
of your own government any more than you
could live upon the notes Of your hired man
ANY more than you could live upon
"a bond issued by the occupants Of the
county poor house. You can not live upon
that which you have to support"

\ We might FIJI this page Of The BULLETIN
with like extracts from a single number OF
the New York Evening Post, the most in
| fiuentiaI Republican paper in the State,
but enough has been said to indicate a
deep-seated dissatisfaction in the Republi-
can ranks over the nomination Of Mr., Cor
nell. But while the Republican party is
undeniably demoralized, thn damphOol
Democracy is rent and torn
by factions, that glare red-hot hatred upon
each other-that stand face to face, the
fingers Of each itching to grasp the others
throat. The outward manifestations OF this
hatred may be suppressed, in measure, but
itpromses to burn unseen todefeat all efforts
at perfect harmony, and to send the party
out to battle, dreading the defeat its very
condition will invite.
With an opportunity to gain complete
control of the State, that may neve, be pre-,
sented second time, failure upon the
part of the party to avail itself thereof, will
paralyze Democratic effort everywhere, and
virtually decide the fight of 1880. 1t is
then, with the Democrats of New York to
give encouragement and renewed zeal to
the party everywhere, or to render the III.
ture utterly hopeless. If they have resolved
upon the latter course, damn them, LET them
20 ahead. We can stand it as well as they
can.
