GETTING VERY Low DOWN.

The Examiner says that few days ago
General SLOVENIAN and Governor Stanford
met by chance in the office of the Palace
Hotel, and that they exchanged few
words, as gentlemen who are acquainted
are in the habit of doing when they meet.
This, it appears, is the foundation of the
Chronicles absurd and obscure hints and
insinuations about an alleged interview
between Stanford and Stoneman at the
Palace Hotel. OF course, however, some.
thing must be pardoned to the Chronicle.
1t cannot, for example, be supposed to
know anything about the habits of gentle.
men, or honest men. But we should really
like to know how its candidate, Mr.. Estee,
would have conducted himself under the
same circumstances. Is it to be concluded
that he would have refused to speak to
Governor Stanford if he met him casually
at the hotel? Would he have "stood still
land screamed for assistance" like
the dandy who encountered the pud-
die Or would he have requested
the Governor to stand off until he could
surround himself with trusty friends, who
might hear and report all that passed If
Mr.. Estee is gentleman he would as.
suredly have done precisely what General
Stoneman is reported to have done. But

THE PRoHIB1r1ox TICKET.

There is good deal of speculation juet
now on the probable effect of the Prohibi.
ton movement in State politics. Natu-
rally the Republican and Democratic poll
ticians are trying each to make out that it
will injure the other, though it must be
admitted that the Republicans have the
most reason to apprehend loss of votes.
For it must be obvious to the least observ-
ant that the Prohibitionists are nearly all
natural Republicans, and it is equally clear
that they expect, through their present
movement, to influence the Republican
party hereafter. In fact they argue openly
that if they can poll considerable vote
next month, and if through their secession
the Republicans are defeated, they will be
able to secure whatever they may demand
in the way of repressive legislation from
the next Republican State Convention.
Possibly they may err in this calculation,
but they certainly believe that they have
taken the right method to bring

the future; and if they were Demo.
Gratis they would hardly hold such
language. They have, however, put full
ticket in the field, and speakers, and they
show a determination to take their full
share in the canvass. And there is this
one significant difference between them
and the old parties They are in earnest,
and have genuine issue, whereas Ithe old
parties are not in earnest, and have only
sham issues. As to the effect of their
movement upon State politics, of course
nothing more than speculation is possible,
but those who affect to think that they
will cast but a small vote do not seem to
give enough weight to the fact that there
has never been a year when the people
manifested SO little interest or confidence
in the old parties. Under these circum-
stances body of men who feel that they
have been betrayed by the politicians, and
who honestly hold that they represent a
more important issue than has been i'm
ported into politics since the abolition of
human slavery, may find many more fol.
lowers than would be probable at another
time
