Good reports reach us from all sections Of
the State in regard to the Republican canvass.
There is general satisfaction with the ticket
All regular" Republicans are prepared to vote
it, while in commenting it and in announcing
his intention to give it his support, Sherman 5.
Rogers, Of Buffalo, no doubt spoke for the In
dependents. Indeed, we have heard OF but one
Republican who is against the ticket. There
NAV be few others who will keep him COM
pany, but practically speaking the RIchiield
nominees encounter no opposition in their
own party.
This fact is full of encouragement but 1t
does not demonstrate that we are going to win
in November 1t merely shows that we eau
win if we chOuse-that is all. Newly Ork IS a
Republican State every time that all New-Iork
Republicans work as hard as they know how to
make 1t Republican. Why, then, are we not
sure to win this year, when factOnalsm and
the consequent cross-purposes are cOnspic-
uously ABSENT The answer is that it is not
difficult TO neutralize the power of Republican
unity with Republican apathy. The young
fellow in the story who was asked how much
he weighed, replied: Il weigh l12 pounds
ordinarily, but when l get mad | weigh Jon.'
The Democrats cannot beat rs this time. The
Buffalo ticket is a blunlcr. Three out OF the
five men upon it have already been placed
upon the defensive. 1t is demanded that the
head of the ticket, Mr.. Maynard, explain his
position Oh the temperance question: that MIR.
Chaplin explain his on the right Of n private
citizen to public furniture; aud that Mr.. Max
we'll explain his on the propriety OF State
Treasurer approprating to his own individual
use portion of the interest on the money
placed in his Official charge Such a combine
ton is not calculated to call out the full Dem
Ocratic vote To dream that it can make any
inroaGs upon tie Republican strDngth is rank
nonsense.
And so we say that only Republicans can de-
feat their patty this time If every man OF
them works with the Old-time zeal aud ell
cheney we cannot but achieve a substantial
victory. We believe that, as "A rule our friends
throughout the State appreciate the situation
and are organizing thoroughly for victory.
The adyices received by the State Committee
indicate this We are not able TO point at this
writing, to any county that is not doing its
duty. But let there be no mistake. victory
which can as well be achieved as not must not
be lost by ineItness anywhere along the line.
The election means very much more than the
control of the State offices and the Legislature.
That indeed is the immediate meaning, and the
stake is great enough to enlist the best oner-
gies of all. But there is IA fuller and more
vital meaning. The November result may
have a determining influence upon the great
struggle of next year for the control OF
National affairs and upon the only less impor
taut canvass of a year later for United States
Senator.

DE4R con- AND THE IROy INTEREST


That the coal companies Gro no longer
entirely agreed among themselves seems TO
have some better foundation than most of the
Tumors that infcst Wall Street 1t is very likely
that the extent of the disagreement may be
exaggerated for speculative ends, but 1t would
bc strange If the companies should not find
their interests Clashing, undcr present circum-
stances. On one side, it is said, is President
GOwen. To him it seems for the best interests
of the Reading and jersey Central rail
roads that the price of anthracite
coal should be maintained at high figure.
On the other hand are companies which desire
to send a large part Of their coal to sundry
iron establishments and to points largely en-
gagged in iron manufacturing. These complain
that the high price Of coal is killing the iron
business where it depends upon anthracite for
fuel, and causing the rapid development of
the manufacture at other points where other
coal or coke can be obtained much more
chcapy. Since there actually is this conflict
of interest. sooner or later it is sure to result
in disagreement In regard to prices.
1t can hardly be questioned that the high
price of anthracite coal has been an important
cause of depression III the iron manufacture
throughout the region where that coal is used
for fuel. In that particular, the officially re-,
ported statistics of the Iron and Steel Associa-
ton are conclusive The enormous develop
ment of the manufacture by the use of coke,
which these statistics show, not only
diyerts a considerable part of the BUSH

made under ordinary circumstances with an
thracite. Dealers in this city and Philadelphia,
and even in Providence and Boston, are aware
that iron of excellent quality has been sent to
them from the Yirginias at prices much below
the cost of iron from nearer anthracite works.
1t is to be noticed, moreover, that the other
branches of manufacture are likely to be built
up rapidly wherever the cheapest iron can be
had with cheap fuel for working i, The ten
dency of the rigid maintenance of high prices
FOR anthracite Is to close up iron works which
depend upon that fuel and to transfer the
business to other regions less afflicted with
monopoly prices.

Transparent effort to keep up a semblance OF

Cigar-making in this city suffers more from
trades-unionism probably than any otter trade
An the city. The last annoyance of the manu-
facturers is caused by law which the unions
had passed last winter. Under its provisions
no tobacco can besmade up in the houses OF the
cigar-makers. Now, under proper conditions,
of course there is no more objection to allow
inG cigars to be made at home than in the fac
tories. This law, however, prohibits all such
work, and thereby strengthens the leaders of
the unions in their control over their fellow
members. But 1t also prevents many women
from making living and entails extra expense
on the manufacturers. Naturally the capital
invested objects to this intsrferenceI but 1t Is

laid next year as ordered by the city coun-
Gil.
Aid. Nelson requested that the size
