Why senator Farley Thinks the Pa
cifc Coast Sure for the Democracy.
New York World. Yesterday

senator FARLEY, OF California, is now at
the New York Hotel. In conversation yes
tcrdsy with reporter of the World the
/ Senator said: " think the nomination Of
! Hancock for the Office OF President makes
1 California more than doubtful state. and
viii give us Democratic victory there this
/ fall. General Hancock is ye.y well known
there. and he is iavortc with men Of all
classes"
"Ilo has been in California on service,
has he not :"
ayes; he was on duty in the lower part
/ Of California during the years preceding
| the war, but his record since then has been
watched, and he is we'll knowa there"
"Whit of The kcarney movement"
"Well. from what / hear and from what
| the newspapers say, judge that kearney
has been thrown overheard, and that the
men who have been following him will he
found in place in the Democratic ranks
You see. California has had her share, and
more than her share, Of trouble from Re-
publican misrule, and the BUSINESS. men
are anxious for q change; they see sea.
son 81 rest and certainty under Demo-
cratic administration, and they are willing
10 DO all they eau to bring ii abont."
How did the Chicago nominations
strike the Republicans OF the Pacific
Slopc:"
Very badly, indeed. They were all
ready 20 make a big tiglt with Blaine, but
they have not yet recovered from the shock
which The name OF Garfield seemed TO give
them. ] think IS Is safe TO say that the
change from Blame TO Garfield has made a
difference Of 10000 votes IN the count Of the
State OF California ri the coming elec-
lion. Since the Cincinnati Convention
/ have telegraphcd 10 the Pacific asking
as 20 the reception Of the news OF the work
of the Convention, and The answers which
| received to-day say, We can carry the
/ State; and tho more ! hear aud look at the
work before Us out there the more | think
/ il possible that we can DO 30. The State on
/ fair count is Democratic anyhow, but
things have been 50 mixed that il i almost
impossible to say where the vote really lies
Have YOU any local issues 10 confuse the
campaign Z"
None. 1t will he a straight fight on the
| general ticket. There are congressman 10
/ be chosen, but no local elections IN the
sense that YOU mean
.sWhat of the other Pacific States :"
"OrcgOn i one Of the doubtful States.
/ but from what know Of hcr she will 90
/ Democratic under such leader aS Hancock.
/ Yes, think YOU may safely assume that all
/ three OF the Pacific States will 20 Demo
cratic this year"
/ docs not Hancock give general >atiSiac-
/ tion 10 the better class OF Republicans -
/ d" He doe, 10 an who are not bound to the
machine. He is regarded aS very good
candidate by all INDEPENDENT voters, and
+ from this c.aS, we shall, think, draw
largely"
Is there any special feature OF the >i'ua-
/ ton which will secure the Democratic ticket
support in your Sl9ie?"
1.-The party received the nomination. as
have said. gladly, but the business men OF
/ the state VIII give IN victory-thc men who
have built up establishments OF their own
and have pun out capital in business enter
prlses. They have had enough Of Rcpubli-
can uncertainty; they point 10 the record
/ to show that the whole policy and practice
4 OF The Republican party for years past has
+ been against their Interests on the Pacific
/ slope. and these men are anxious Tor the
stability which they see viii come in with
/ the return Of the Democrats 10 power. /
4 feel more sure every day as | hear more
| from tho state that We are to make the state
/ OF California Democratic tbis fall.'
