TIE Register is among those newspapers
which seem to think they can elect a
President to their own liking by suppress
ing news aufavorable to their own side.
This partly accounts for the fact that while
the drift OF the Associated Press dispatches
favored Mr.. Blaine the Register preferred
to bulletin the frantic dispatches Of Demo.
Gratis in New York who claimed that Cleve-
land was elected beyond doubt-a claim
whichrested on no better foundation than
the hazard OF guess, for at that time il
was impossible to tell who had the. small
plurality which had fallen on one side OF
the other.
One result OF this was to prejudice the
Associated. Press in the public mind, fol
not everybody knew what kind Of game
the Register was playins-which dispatch
es were non-partisan and which were
written with partisan ink Of the deepest
dye. As an Associated Press newspaper
the ISrELLldEScER objects to that way o
handling the service OF that association. <
1t was bad enough for newspaper tc
have to submit its editorials to the exami
nation, revision and approval Of a caucu!
of its party; the news might be allowed
togo unreyised or unsilothered by sucl
peculiar censorship. The Register will moi
like this, but it is true, and proper mat
ter OF public comment. At such 4 timt
the public has right to know who treat
1t fairly and who imposes on it. i

denounced the Associated Press as a ma

THE VITAL QUESTION.
Tho Official Count Must Decide the Presi-

dency.
NEW YORK, Nov. S.-The Commercial
Advertiser this afternoon says: 1T seems
generally agreed to-day by law abiding
citizens that the official vote must be await
ed before the question as to who carried
New York can be settled. There was no
disposition on the part Of Republicans to
deny the claims advanced BY the Demo-
Gratis The Republican position was thus
simply stated. The largest vote ever cast
in New York has been polled. 1t exceeds
one million and half. Out OF this immense
number OF ballots deposited in thousands
OF boxes in sixty counties OF the State it
is contended q that plurality OF
less than. 1900 votes has been
given. Mr.. Blaine's friends do not
claim an excess OF that figure, nor do Mr..
Cleveland's. The question is who received
this plurality? Thus far unofficial figures
have failed to satisfactorily demonstrate
it. Both sides have; insisted that the
other was beaten, and the great body OF
the people will have none OF such decis.
ions. The question must go to the body

last IS hours conceived a new scheme 10,
throwing again into dispute the rcsul,
Of the election in our State. Fol
many days after the election they
in bad faith claimed for the Republican
candidate several States which they knew
they had not carried. In the same bad
faith when every source Of infor.
nation, including the Associated Press,
have demonstrated that tho vote Of New
fosks has been given to the Cleveland
electors, they still claim the State. No
lact OF history is now better known than
that the results Of the election as ascer.
tained, declared and certified by the
election officers and OF public record
throughout tile State give New York 10
the Cleveland electors by a decisive plu.
raiity. These publicceriified returns have
been sitted in the several counties by both
parties with the most conscientious care

representatives Of the party in the various
counties OF this State TO be alert and bv
every proper method to resist
and defeat this last desperate de-
vice. And mindful Of the grave
consequence to the business interests OF
our State which such conspiracy neces-
sarily involves. we deem it our duty to
Assure our people who have now generally
acquiesced in the result that they may con
