"that the Democrats have even fighting

except Mr. Tilden, who declares himself
out Of the race. Hancock, Cleveland, Nc.
Donald, Hendricks, none Of them can en-.
thuse the masses. We must take a new
man as the Republicans did when they
threw the old stagers over and took Gar.
field. We want man who represents
some live issue, and about whom ambitious
young men can gather, Mr.. Carlisle Is
just such man. Had Randall succeeded
in winning the speakership, nothing could
have lmpeded his progress to the Presi.
dency. Why should not Carlisle, who de.
teated him 30 overwhelmingly, succeed to
bis ambitions7 He represents living
issue, one that Ia aggressive and close to

and the annual interest charge Sl50,OOO.
The present funded debt is s4,40O,7l4.
-Four years ago there was deficiency Of
about quarter Of million to be provided
for. Now, the Governor says, the def.
cheney is only about $4,000, and the gen.

good that the tax levy for general purposes
can be reduced by two.tenths OF a mill;
The Governor is also OF opinion that the
