THE CHANGE IN THE NORTH.

The registration in the various north
orn states indicates great change in
the sum total Of the votes up thore. I'm
New York, Now Jersey, Connccticuta and
indeed many othor states the registered
vote mt present is far larger than in any
previous campaign. Results must be
expected from this increased vote and
the question is constantly asked us
"what will the result boz"
1t is an open secret that in the south.
the great majority Of the people are
Democratic, II cannot be disputed TINT
in the north tho same is true of the Re.
publican party. The south a. a whole
is Democratic and as a whole the north
can bo put down as Republican. II the
south should show a LARGELY nc-caspd
vote 10 might be expected that the major
portion of that vote would be given To
the Democracy.
So m the north and for the same
reasons.
Sons OF Republicans may he expected
to vote tho Republican ticket. But in
this campaign il largo number of Re-.
publicans in tho north who will not sun.
port BLAINE. II may be- confidently
counted ON that the sons Of these Re.
publlcans will not vote for BLAINE.
In the presence, therefore, Of an in.
creased Republican vote, Is the further
fact that the young mou who are voting
for the first time will follow the indie.
pendent movement OF their fathers and
throw their first vote for CLEVELAND
and HENuWcRs.
Tho result tx, thorefora. mos, encour-
agingl An enlarged registration i'm the
north is mot 10y tho increased and enc
phatlc independent vote up there, and
where a state may register 1000 or 500.
900 new votes, tho Independents may
register 100000 or 2oOO0j additional vote,
In hehalfof OLEvELANpand urNpRIcKs
and reform.
In other words, the increased rovis.
tration is offset by the increased and nm
procedouIed enlargement of the Undo.
pendent vote.
This fact Is significant ami really ono
OF tho most important factors in tho
campaisne. The enlarged registration
primarily Indicates and ENLARGED
Republican vote, but tho increased
Independent detection will likely
neutra1iae this eject and Keep the
Democratic gains up to tho required
stand point
Under such circumstances, therefore.
the increased vote is by no means and
alarming element TO us aud the change
IN the North cannot hut ho source of
encouragement and satisfaction to thg
democracy.

THE Austin Capital says: "When
Dallas becomes prohibition town the
end of the world will not DO far on"
Dallas dom think of such proposition,
let alone adopting it, but whenever
Austin succeeds in inducing tho state
to support its city government, pay for
its police, its water, it street improve
ments, its gas, and have the governor
ex-ollicio mayor, and tho Legislature ex-
oflicio councilmen, then can tho Capital
talk about the absurdity of Dallas
adopting prohibition, but not before.
Dallas is all right, and Austin will con-
tinue to pay her own municipal OK
ponses, and don't you forget it.
