The Tilden Manning manipuators OF Demo-
cratic affairs in this State are now showing
their hand in regard to the ticket to be noml-
ated at Buffalo next week. Judge Maynard,
of Delaware County, Is apparently the man Sc
lected to lead the fight against General Carr
the Republican candidate for Secretary OF STATE
This probably means that no one VINO mas oeen
nnfriendly to Governor Cleveland's administra-
ton Ia to be allowed to have place on the
ticket-wbich will generally be conceded 70 %
hard on Mr.. Purcell, of Rochester. But AFTER
all. the plan may not work. 1t looks as II ME-
John Kelly would have something to say ahout
it.
The serious nature of the disturbances ID
Croatia is proved by the difficulty which the
Hungarian authorities are having to suppress
them. The Magyars, who directly rule the
Croats. Cypress them terribly, so that the dis
satisfaction has become chronic and proDaDly

have been due to the action OF the hungarian
Government in posting official notices In the
Magyar tongue, which only small part OF tne
nonnlation of Croatia understand. 1t Is
generally expected that sooner or later the
Emneror of Austria will side with his Croatian
subjects. Their nationality forms the greatest
part of his army. and they saved his Empire
In 1s4s. So they are worth more to him than
the Magyars.
It looks much as if General Butler had for
gotten that he said in his inaugural address
last January that he had "neither wish nor in
tentlon to ask" for the position OF Governor
of Massachusetts again. Perhaps he thinks
circumstances alter cases, or attributes
different meaning to the word "ask from
what most people do; but it Is most likely that
he does not attach Importance to his formal
promise. Any way, he has announced his IN
tention to be present at the Democratic State
Convention at Springfield on Tuesday and
"open the canvass in person." All this ac-
tivity may be intended for the benefit of some
unknown friend of the Governor, but judging
from the past, B. F. Butler is the only man
living he would take so much trouble for'
And despite his broken word the Convention
seems likely to do his bidding.
The New-York City delegates to the State
Convention, the last of whom are now home
from Richfeld Springs have nothing but sat
isfaction to express with the work accom-
plished Moreover, the information which they
gained by an exchange of opinions with the
country delegates shows that the party all over
the State is thoroughly united, and both will
ing and able to put forth its full force this fall
against the Democratic opposition. This not
only means the success of the State ticket, but
the election of a Republican majority in the
Assembly. This favorable outlook is confirmed
by the opinions expressed IN all the represent
alive Republican newspapers throughout the
interior. The work of the Convention is heart
lily approved, and the one idea of the whole
party is declared to be to roll up handsome
majority for the Republican ticket in Novem-
Der.
