THE CANDIDATE FOR MAYOR.
New YORK, October 19th.-Wrn. H. Grace,
nominated for Mayor by the united Dem
ocracy yesterday is member of firm in
the banking, shipping and commercial bust
ness of New FORK, San Francisco and Callao.
The Heralds reporter adds: The various
firms control large proportion of the trade
between South America and the United
States owning and controlling a great num-
Der of vessels. and having established agen-
cies in different South American countries.
Oae Of the most Furnishing of these branch
houses was in Valparaiso, but with the out.
break of war came the breaking up of this
trade, as the firm embarked in the business of
supplying the Peruvian Government with
munitions of war and other necessaries. The
trade of the firms, in fact has EN-.
braced almost every article to be found
on the list of exports and imports
chased by the Railroad King, Henry A.
Meiggs, for the prosecution of his gigantic
schemes, to the simplest necessities OF life
that are bought by South Americans. They
have large Government contracts with Peru
for the export of guano and nitrates, and
carry back general merchandise, ship chand-
lery, etc., and while they own many ships
they are consignees of many more,
so that it is not an uncommon
thing to see in one of their Offices
dozen captains waiting at once for instruc-
tions Editorially, however, the Herald
says: Leaving John Mexican out of the ques-
ton, Mr.. Kelly has selected the only
Catholic in the list. Why? For what good
reason? MIR. Kelly is not blind or deaf. He
is not sIllyor needless. He knows perfectly well
that one of the most injurious, one of the most
dangerous, elements which can be injected
into American politics is that of religious
prejudices and fanaticism. He knows per-
fectiy well that his nomination of Grace will
impart this dangerous, this uncalled-for, dis
turbing element into our politics. he
knows as well as any other man in the com.
that munity his nomination of Grace for Mayor
will be laid hold of as an attempt to place
the city under Catholic influences and
rule, and by his own act Kelly thus
forces his own Church into political
discussion, and excites the fanaticism Of its
opponents and the fanaticism of its support
ers as well. He is supposed to desire the sue
cess of his party. That party is just now
making death struggle for the Presidency,
and against such odds as seem to make defeat
very probable. Behold Kelly insists on an
act which, as ne knows, az everybody knows,
will arouse new kind of prejudice, to be
sure, but none the less damaging for that,
against the Democrats, and drive not one but
a dozen new nails into the Democratic coffin.
lie may wish to defeat the Democratic party,
but is it proper that he should use his Church
as club with which to beat out his party's
brains?
The Tribune has kind words for Grace, but
says that the Germans are muttering over
the unprecedented representation of Irish.
men ON the Democratic local ticket. Two
Irishmen and one son of an Irishman have
already been named for three out of the five
offices. If any more Irishmen are nominated,
the Irish Democrats may have to try their
hand at electing the ticket alone.
One OF the Irving Hall Committee told a
Times reporter This is an awful pill to
take We didn't want Grace, and supposed
Kelly didn't want him. Now let the Repub-
Gcans put mp good man, like Postmaster
james or General Lloyd Aspinwall, and with
the independent vote added eithsr of these
men can be elected"

THE NEW YORK "woRLD" AND "sUN" AT
LoGGERHEADs.
New YORK, October 9tb.-The World
this morning prints several utterances Of the
Sun before the Indiana election, regarding
Hancock and English, showing that they
were the fttest and best nominees, and COM
pares these statements with the Suns edi-
torial of yesterday in the same connection.
The World announces itself as two cent
paper till after the election, and editorially
deneunces the Sun not being Democratic
journal. The Sun, however, continues its
silly editorials, which are inconsistent with
one another-now exhorting the Democrats
to vote for Hancock and English, and then
throwing cold water on the whole ticket.
