THE republicans in New York state
are all tom up over the nomination for
governor. The convention will meet at
Saratoga on the Goth. The present
governor, Cornell, Secretary Folger, of
the cabinet, ana Congressman Wads-
worth are all candidates. The Utica
Herald published at Conkling's home,
the most influential republican news
paper in the state, has this to say of
Judge Folger's candidacy;
Mr.. Folger will come into the state
convention, il it all, to represent Mr..
Arthur's demand that the state shall
now organize the republican party So
as to cry aloud for his nomination FOR
president in 1884. While it might tie
true that the candidate for governor
might forget his obligations to his chief,
and dream of promotion himself, no
one can doubt that the immediate pur-
pose of the Arthur machine is to use
Folger to seize the state patronage in
order to manipulate conventions and
delegates for 1884 The plan can result
only in defeat.
Mr.. Folger may not be satisfactory
even to Mr.. Arthur as secretary of the
treasury, That may be u reason fol
making u change i'll that department
1t does not furnish an argument for
nominating the secretary for governor
On the contrary, Mr.. Folger stands foi

York demand in the coming canvass
He has been identified with the most
scandalous use Of the appointing power
by the national administration. Hc
has made proclamation by his acts, in
the most audacious way, that the spoil>
belong not to the victo~s, not to the ma
jority, not to the party; but to the fac
ton defeated in national convention

majority, and in that minority to indi
v.duals seeking personal ends, ano
ready to buy support through patron

DEYOURED BY COYOTES
A Man Lost In Nebraska sands Suf.
fers Horrible Fate.

On the Sth of July, William Aust,
a wealthy and popular business man on
Sixteenth street, left his family and
affairs in the city for a trip to Dead
wood to settle up matter of long
standing. He was at the time in ap-
parently good health, with every pros.
pect of long life ahead Of him. Over
week had elapsed since his depart.
ure, when the startling news was re-
ceived by his friends here that he had
leaped from the stage at a point west
of Sidney and had been wandering,
undiscovered, on the vast and desolate
plains of Western Nebraska, for five
days. After some uncertainty and de-
| lay by reason of unsatisfactory con-
firmation Of the report L. Mccoy was
commissioned by the Knights OF Pythias
TO proceed to Sidney, take up the lost
trail, and, if possible, discover the
missing man or his remains. Mr.. Nc
Coy returned from Sidney yesterday,
and from him we learn the graphic
details of the horrible affir, which are
here given:
The probabilities are that on leaving
the route travelled by the stage, Aust
wandered off toward the sand hills,
some five or ten miles. He had only
crossed the ridge and reached the foot
of the hills when found. His boots
were somewhat run down at the heel,
and as he sank in the yielding sand at
every step, they must nave begun to
hurt him, and he pulled them off and
evidentl wenson, forgetting that he had
| left them. One was found long way
| from his remains and the other was
not discovered. His hat also was dis
carded in the wanderings Of his lonely
| trip, and then his coat. The former
was found five miles away, the latter
was not seen at all. Left in this conGit-
ion tramping over the prickly growth
that covered the plains, his feet became
swollen and festered by the following
day the hot sun beat down upon his
uncovered head and added to the cen
fusion Of mind already tottering.
AT last, five days after he had been
lost, alone on the ridge, he took his
notes and papers from his pockets and
with pencil wrote this short note;
"JULY THE (no date), 1882.
| 81 have been carried away one even
ing from Omaha, my home, and they
got me to place l lid not know.
Found out in the morning it was great
territory. have nothing to eat or drink
in five days, | can't say when l can get
any. say good-by to you all and hope
you will do well. WILLIAM AUST"
Mr.. Mccoy thinks the writer lived
two day after this. At last the coyotes
attacked him. He evidently had ter
rible struggle, for the ground about him
was torn and beaten in circle which
looked like the arena in circus tent.
The remains We're clad in vests, pants
and the usual underclothing and pre-
scented a terrible appearance. The flesh
was entirely eaten from the lett arm
and right leg, only the naked bones
being left. The face was equally dis
figured, not particle Of flesh being
left except where the hand had pro-
tected the right side.
