Nashville American
From all that we can learn there
will be no opposition of any serious
character in Tennessee to the aboli-
ton Of the entire internal revenue
tax. To let the States have this
'eYenue, instead of the Federal
government, is a proposition which
hardly any Tennessean will com
Dat.
The drain upon the State by this
iirect tax is enormous. 1t is equal
20 the expense of sustaining a con.
siderable army. The Office at Nash
vile collects daily, according to the
published reports, from $4,000, to

aEFW YORK OR NOTHING.

s"NEW YORK OR NOTHING.
We have received a copy of the
Chicago Herald, with our attention
directed to an editorial article head
ed a. New York or Nothing" which
we copy elsewhere. The object of
the article is to show that the Dem
scratic party can not hope to achieve
success in the next Presidential cleo
ton without the electoral vote of the
State of New York. This opinion
has been an announced CONVICTION
Of The GAZETTE months before the
HerdIfs article was read. New
York, New Jersey and Connecticut
and Indiana are regarded rs the on
ly debatable States in the North.
Oflhese New Jersey may be counted
m Democratic under almost any cir
cumstances, while Now York may
be relied on with reasonable GER
tainty il the Presidential candidate
comes from either of these States.
This is the experience of the past.
To transfer the campaign to the
West and engage in a new and rad
ical departure on economic issues
would, in our judgment, make de-
feat absolutely certain. The West
ern and Northwestern States are
Republican, and there is nothing In
the signs of the times to indicate
that they will not continue 30. The
tariff issue would not bhange one OF
them. Ohio went Democratic on an
"off year" on a semi protection plat
form and elected a protectiOnist
Governor and still more recently
elected a protectionist to the United
States Senate. The Democrats have
little chance Of carrying that State,
even under the most favorable cir
cumstances. On Mr.. Watterson's
tariff issue it would have none what
ever. In what other Western State,
except Indiana, have the Democrats
even fighting chance? To quote
from the Herald: The Southern
and border States, all certainly Dem
ocratie, have I53 electoral votes.
The Democrats might carry these
and Connecticut, New Jersey, Indi-
ana, Nevada and California and still
lack enough votes to elect a Presi-
dent. With a popular candidate
and a sensible platform they might
easily carry all of the Northern
States last named, but where would
the remaining votes necessary to
success come from? They must be
given by New York, a State that is
Oftener Democratic than Republican.
Without that State the Democrats
can not elect their ticket. With the
candidate in that State they have
invariably carried it. Without the
candidate in that State they have
nvariably lost it. 1t is New York
or nothing"
