d. C. Forney Says the Republicans in New
York are Absolutely Helpless, and Little
Better Elsewhere.
Special Telegram to the Globe
WASHINGTON, Oct. 23.---D. G. Forney, an
old Republican politician who has horo-
sccped correctly in days gone by in this
city, in running talk on matters political
yesterday said to the GLOBE correspond
ent.
81 doubt whether the Republican party
in New York, from the lay of its
organization. was ever in such a
helpless conditi on as at present. The rea-
son for this apathy is not because of any
special dread of the Democratic party
arising out of the harmony of the different
factions, but because of general disgust
party have been misused. Speaking to
quite an old-time Republican from Buff
falo," said Mr.. Forney, "He remarked the
organization not only in New York but
in other states had passed into the
hands of men, not only deficient in brains
but whose sole object in maintaining it
was for personal ends of their own. So
far as the national administration is con-
cerned we would be much better off if al
most any other Republican than President
Arthur was at the head of it. The way
things look now, the Democrats will carry
New York by from $4,000 to 100000 ma
jority, and this will be the result of the
management of shallow Drained men.

publican camp, and pay the fittings OF
black mail the Republican managers de-
mand. The truth is the financial and
business interests of the country demand
the retirement of the Republican party
The election of Garfield and Arthur by
purchase in 1880, fixed tbs fate of the Re-
publican party. That desperate corrup-
ton uncovered fully all its dishon-
est aims, its frightful extravagances, its
illogical and burdensome tariff policy an
ugliness of every sort. The Tribune
organ and the spoils partisans may rave
as furiously as they please;the Republican
party is being wiped ont, as with sponge.
Capital, instead of hindering that good
work, is offering no obstacle but rater aid
ing its accomplishment. The majority
OF the people are in earnest for tax reduc-
ton, revenue reform.economy in expendi-
lures and honest men in official stations.
The claim that anybody but the leeches
and harpies desire the continuance Of the
Republican party is untrue. Corruption
has so corroded it that it falls to pieces
from its own rascality.

THE HANLONS .
Death of Charles Spencer.

News has reached St. Paul of the death
of Charles Spencer at st. Peter. He died
last Friday of a complication of diseases.
that weakened his mind, as we'll as his
body. The deceased was well known in
st. Paul,when several years ago he was the
business manager of one or more eastern
freight lines. He subsequently went to
Chicago. After he had been there a year
or two his failing health compelled him
to relinquish businessman he then came to
st. Paul. He gradually grew worse
and at last his mind came to be
very weak and he was sent to st. Peter
where he died as above stated. He was a
young man of good business capacity, and
had a wonderfully attractive personal
magnetism that enabled him to make
friends easily and rapidly. His aequaint-
aDce was very extensive, and all who knew
him will remember him with the most
kindly feelings, and will deeply regret the
misfortunes that settled around him and
cut him off in his early manhood.

MILITARY RECORDS.


The Republican papers in the state are
engaged parading the military service of
Gov. Hubbard, and one would infer from
their fulsome praise of their candidate that
there were few others in the grand army
that suppressed the rebellion.
Mr.. Biermann is not without a military
record. 1t is true that he had no friends
to secure high place for him, but he ell
listed and carried a knapsack and a
musket throughout the war, making rep
utatioa for bravery and devotion to duty
second to no native born American citizen.
Forgetting his gallantry and
faithful services, the know nothing Re
publiclns characterize him ''as poor
Scandinavian, unworthy to hold the ex-
allied positioni of Governor of this COM
monwealth." Will not every old soldier
and every honest man resent the Insult
offered to one of the brave defenders of
our national government? Mr.. Biermann
is gentleman of education and refine
ment, faithful old soldier, the peer of
any man living in Minnesota. Shall he
be defeated because he is a Scandinavian
by birth? A vote for Biermann is a vote
to do away the with know nothing idea har
bored in the breast of every Republican
in this state-that none but American
born citizens are worthy to fill the execu'
tive chair. Let the independent freemen
of Minnesota rise in their might and
power on election day and show the world
that nothing but real merit is here re-
quired as qualii cation for the most dig
nifed office of state.

we can now make colored men take the

Boston, Oct. %. The following address
will be issued tomorrow by the old line
Democrats:
"Without abating our opposition to the
political views and methods of the repub-

in the future can be neither deserved or
achieved unless We free ourselves from the
charge of supporting candidates who have
lowered the standard of political morality.
We appeal to your patriotism and sober
common sense to oppose The reelection of
Benjamin f. Butler. Caring nothing
for party or principle, he subordi-
mates every public interest to his
own ggrandisement. Should he be again
electec, the Democratic party of Massa-
ohusetts would be held esponsible for his
administrative acts and executive eccentri-
cities past and future while no RESPONSE
bihty attaches to US for any other acts of
Mr.. Robinson. Such being our belief we
cannot hesitate to declare we intend to DO
all that may be in oar power to secure the
defeat of Gen. Butler, and We urge all
Democrats to join with Us in such action.

S. A. B. Abbott, nominated to the second
place on the Democratic state ticket, de
