for II was that the Democratic party was
dead because they had no living issue.
The Gteenback party had the question OF
the dominance Of corporations over the
rights OF the people, and whatever the
Government or corporations should issue,
the money would always be a living ques.

The Claims OF New York Urged for
Lending Cabinet Position.

Tie Claims OF New York Urged for n
Leading Cabinet Position.
MENTOR, January 3l.-The week opens
with an event Of much Significance. Gov.
Cornell and Senator elect Plat, Of New
York, spent Sunday with Gen. Garfield /,
and returned to day to New York. They
did not come uninvied and their long con.
ference with the President elect was Of
much greater interest than most OF the
consultations which he Is compelled to
hold with the politicians.
There Is good authority for tho state.
ment that these distinguished visitors rep.
resented fully the views OF Senator Conk.
ling as well as their own, and that they
came expressly To promote good Under.
standing between the President elect and
his BtalWart supporters In New York.
They were most cordially received, and II
Is no secret that the interview was highly
satisfactory to both parties. Governor
Cornell and Senator Platt earnestly pre-.
sented the claims Of New York to 4 lead.
ing Cabinet position, and represented
that the choice OF well known aud able
New Yorker as Secretary 1.-THE Treasury
would be as favorable to the financial and
business interests Of the whole country as
1t would be gratifying to the stalwart Re.
pubiCans Of the Empire State. In con.
neCtion with this matter the names Of sew.
eral eminent New York men were eus.
gested, there being no disposition to insist
on the appointment Of particular man.
II is probable that for some time past
the eEpedlenCy Of finding a Secretary Of
the Treasury In New York has been be-.
coming more and more apparent to Gen.
Garfield, and probably the present visit
was not needed TO secure the desired ro.
suit.
The representations Of Governor Cor.
nell and Senator l'latt, however, were
such as to make q most favorable impres.
sion, aud It may be Get down as certain
that the section Of the Republicans which
they represent will receive generous con.
sideration.
While General Garfield will act with in.
dependence, and seek first Of all TO obey
his own sense oi right and fitness, he wifi
show genuine respect for the views and
desires OF leading Republicans, and will
seek by all proper means 10 promote peace
and hafmony.

carrying of with him $1,000 in money, A
valise belonging to the Frenchman, and
said by him to contain $95, 900 in gold and
currency, was LETT at the house OF Mr..
Mitchell, who had belriendsd him in his
trouble, and was deposited in the bank by
Mr.. Mitchell for sale keeping. When last
seen, the FrenChman was with an Italian
named Paul, and suspicion was aroused
that the latter had made way with him.
Late tonight the Republican received an
