THE Faneuil Hall Democracy of Massa-
chusetts, who call themselves the straight
outs, the simon pure and anti-BUTLER wing
OF the party, made their nominations yes
terday for the ensuing election. They fol-
lowed carefully cut and dried plan as re-
CARDS the leading names on the ticket, and
thereby insured the enmity of large num-
bers of Democrats who do not believe in
to BUTLER, but, at the same time, will not
injure the certainty of Republican success.

Mr.. TILDEN declines to act rs an in
spector of the approaching election. This
would seem to argue that his stock of per-
sonal ambition had exhausted itself, for
this is the highest position that promises it.
self to him in the future. This is the last
tribute TO his greatness that his own party
Is likely to tender to him. and if he rejects
it that ends his claim, tho it may not end
his barrel. His recent interviewer, adviser
and confidential friend who got him at log
gerheads with Mr.. SYPHER when he was in
nocent of the whole matter, will take care
of that bar'l.

THE Raleigh IN. c. Observer thinks /" it
"likely that the Republican Committee" of
that State, "was somewhat surprised at
"their being able to cast 10S000 Repub-
"Hcan ballots in 1916" Perhaps they
were, and perhaps they had good reason to
be surprised, for the figures show that be-
fore 1876 the highest vote ever cast for any
successful candidate in that State-that for
Governor CALDwELL-was about 10l 600.
This fact, taken in connection with the ad-
mission of the Observer that 100000 Repub.
liean votes were cast in 1876, would indi-
cate that the Republicans carried the cleo
tion that year. However this may be, we
still insist that our figures are right, viz:
that there are about 10000 white and 10000
black Republican votes in the State. But
speaking of surprises, were the Tar-Heel
Democrats astOnished at polling 100000
votes in 1876 when they had never polled
more than $4,000 at any previous election?
Or, had they arranged before hand to stuff
the ballot-boxes so as to be able TO foot up
that number in the count?

THE self-suf1icency of the Philadelphia
Times is of that complacent kind which de-
notes the utter ignorance Of the victim who
enjoys it of the threatened danger of burst
ing wide opeu-exploding, in fact, with the
self-combustion of overweening self-con-
ceit, as it were. One evidence of this dan
gerous condition of the Times is exhibited
in its chronic determination to discredit
any and all political news regarding the
Democracy, and especially regarding Mr..
TILDEN, that does not appear originally in
its columns. Yet it is fact that Gath F"
was formerly regular contrbutor-an in
terviewing contributor-to those columns.

THE plethoric supply of money in the
country has given an unusual impetus to
speculation in all channels fact which
prompts the Washington correspondent of
the Baltimore SuH to mcralize little and
to admonish the public generally and every
body in particular not to forget the bitter
experience of the speculative period which
preceded the panic of 1873. We think,
however, that the 'stock indicators" are not
so well patronized as the Sun writer i'm
agines. He possibly grounds his surmises
upon personal observations of his immediate
surroundings on Newspaper Row, and every
one knows that speculation of the widest
and most imaginative kind is always rife in
that quarter.
