A Word 10 the Herald.

hIAUhll -NtNHs
The Dallas Herald accuses the News
of applying unseemly names and
epithets TO a Fort Worth paper of
larger circulation than the Herald If
the editorial in the Herald of the 9Th,
referring to the Young County News,
is specimen of the fairness with
which the Herald quotes others and
the regard 1t has for veracity, it is q
very unreliable paper. The News has
applied no names TO anyone, and il
the Herald will read more carefully, il
will see that we did not. We only
alluded to the personal war between
the Fort Worth and Dallas papers as
one that might become similar to that
between the Tennessee editors. If the
Herald had reputation for stating
things as they are, its support of Nor
ton for governor would be more eff.
fective.

Condition Of the 0emoors tic Campaign,
Even Republicans admit that the
Democratic campaign is in better
shape than it was at this time under
Hancock in 1880. They confess this
fact directly in words and indirectly
by the intense anxiety they show to.
wards Ohio, which has caused them
10 import their chieftaln to that state
for exhibition to keep UP tue spirits of
their partisans. They confess 1t in
their strenuous efforts to break the
solid South. They confess it in hum
dred ways, aud deny It la none.
Though the Democrats lost both
Ohio and Indiana in the 1850 October
election, they yet came within 1900
votes Of electing Hancock president.
This assertion may meet with
doubt, but the proofs ut hand. Gar
fields vote in the electoral college was
2li TO l55 for Hancock, Garfield car
rled New York by d 900 majority. A
change of 1000 OF these votes to
Hancock would have given him the
state, and with It New York's 80 cleo
toral votes. These taken from Gar
fields PA would have left him 10, and
added 10 Hanoock's l55 would have
given him l90-five more than a
majority. So we say Hancock came
within IL, 900 votes Of being president
instead of Garfield.
In 1880 the Democrats We're routed
and in full retreat before the national
election came on. They had been
beaten in the October elections by
5000 votes in Ohio and 1000 in Indi-
ana, aud despair had seized upon the
elders and detection upon the people.
Yet against such odds as these they
went into the election and came within
1000 votes OF victory. Now they are
full OF enthusiasm aud resolute OF
purpose. The euemy is on the defenf.
i've aud It's leader Is dri ven to apologies
explanations aud denials every day Of
affairs and incidents IN his career that
burden him with a load Of infamy.
The respectable part OF his own party
is In revolt against him and working
FOR the Democratic candidate. The
unattached vote OF New York
that was cast almost solidly
for Garfield, Is enthusiast,
for Cleveland, With but one exception

are striving for his success and pour
ing volleys OF destruction into the
Blaine ranks The business men, who
have supported every Republican can
.dldate from Lincoln to Garfield, are
afraid of Blaine, and have organized
working clubs for the election Of Cleve-
land and Hendricks. Everything
combines to keep up the spirits Of
Democratic partlsans and give them
assurance Of victory. They may, and
doubtless will, be beaten in Ohio, for
Ohio Is a Republican state beyond
question. The result there signifies
nothing, unless the Republican msjor-
ity shall be unusually large, and Re
publicans do notclaim more that 10000
or $4,000 majority. Less than that
will be Democratic victory, for a
change in their favor of equal proper
ton will give them New York, Con-
necticut and Indiana, and increase
their msjoritles in New Jersey, Cali
fornia and Nevada.
The air IS full OF portents OF Demo-
cratic success. The present condition
Of the party will compare favorably
with its condition in 1875, when Til
den was beaten by but one vote, and
had the votes Of Louisiana, Florida
and South Carolina counted against
him by Republican returning boards,
These states are not even contested by
the Republicans this year, and are
surely Democratic. All in all, we be-
lieve there is as great certainty as
can be that the next president Of the
United States will be Grover Cleve.

Mai Brown has introduced an ordinance

time has come in the history of this city
when such an Office IA necessary, and It is to
be hoped that the city council without dis
sentihg voice viii provide forit.
OF course such an Office Is necessary.
1t will provide an earthly paradise for
another Dallas man, and that is
enough argument to make Dallas
solid for IL. The council without a
dissenting voice. will provide for It,
AZ to do otherwise would expose the

The millennium is beginning to dawn

hold out the Dallasite wouldn't swap

THE BrenhRm banner reminds ms OF
singular and remarkable fact 10 Rephbli-
can candidate for the presidency has ever re-
ceived a majority OF the popular vote. When
Mr. Tilden was cheated out OF his Office he
had 1900 majority OF the popular votel-

Give the devil his due. Lincoln's
majority in 1854 was lO7, 3l2, and Grant
had msjorlties OF sos, ass in 1868 and
~, 975 in 1872 over all opposition. In
1864 the states In rebellion did not
vote, and in 1868 there were many citi-
zeDs disfrancAised; but this does not
alter the fact that the Republicans had
large popular msjorities at at least
three presidential elections.

The reports sent out by the Assoclat-

drome impress newspaper readers with
the belief that snow-plows on the en-.
gines are needed to get through the
solid masses of enthusiasm that block
the track. But the special reports
sent TO the New York papers tell
different tale, and show that in some
places the reception to Blaine is posi-

set the town afire with enthusiasm,
only slim crowd ofcuriOus gazers met
him at the depot, and his escort

ports that are published all over the
