Congratulatory Address to the New York
RenuhlicanS.

| NEW YORK, October 22d-A. M.-The Republi-
| can State Committee last night issued an adj
dress to the Republicans of the State of New
| York, congratulating them upon the recent
victories in Vermont Maine and Ohio, and the
great gains in West Virginia. These are most
significant results. They show that the efforts
of the Democrats to deceive the people signally
| failed; that the drift of political sentiment is
still towards the Republican party; that public
show that the people of this country under
stand and appreciate the situation The
Democrats, by fraud and violence,
maintain a solid South and
boast that the 1913 electoral votes of that section
is sure to be given to their candidate. They
protest, however, against raising sectional
issue" against appealing to Il solid, loyal North
as against a solid South. They declare that the
personal issue is an over-shadowing one in this
canvass and relentlessly assail the private bust
ness transactions ofthe Republican cand date in
whose long public life they cannot find vul-
nerable point but are most sensitive and deeply
grieved when the private record OF their own
candidate is laid open to public gaze. Two days
were spent by the Committee on Resolutions of
the Democratic National Convention in defining
the position of the party on the tariff, and one
third of the platform is composed of tariff tim
Der; but when manufacturers, merchants and
laboring men show signs of alarm at the free
trade tendencies of that party, its candidate
declares that the tariff is an irrelevant issue.
The prospect i'll New York is most encouraging.
From every county gratifying reports are re-
ceiyed. With the exception of comparatively
is united, confident and aggressive, and
all the indications point to larger majorities
than were given Garfield. The German Repub
licans are loyal to their party The Irish Demo
Gratis are greatly disaffected, and are leaving
their party by thousands. The committee then
admonishes the Republicans that notwithstand-
ing the enemy is in full retreat, the fighting
should be forced all along the line. Meetings
should be organized, registry lists in the cities
scrutinized frauds unearthed and complete
organization effected and perpetuated,
