support in Massachusetts is to be much
smaller than it has been in previous years,
owing to his constituents knowledge of
his inability to be successful; nor will he
have any great rewards to 011er his sup
porters in the way of offices. The best
judges in New York city do not think he
will poll $4,000 votes there, and it is
doubtful it he gets 10000 in the whole
Empire State. Even this vote, subtracted
from the Democratic numbers, seems dis
astrous at first sight. But closer consid-
Grafton shows that throughout the Repub-
lican canvass thus far one faction has
not been taken into count. This unspoken
element, which is to play so prominent a
part in the campaign, is the disafected
stalwart element, which is better
defined in New York than else
where, and which will undoubtedly
overcome all efforts that can be made by
the Republicans for gaining the Empire
State to Blaine's support. 1t is also very
probable in New York, and almost un-
questionable in Massachusetts, that the
Independent Republicans will by far ex-
ceed any addition the Irish-American ele-
ments may give Blaine and Logan in these
States; and considering these facts there
are no reasons why Cleveland will not
carry New York, provided that State does
not give Blaine stronger vote than it did
Garfield, which is out of the question at
this era of affairs"
This Republican said: "Roscoe Conk-
ling is the man over all the New York
stalwarts, and all of the work done dur
ing the campaign will te under his direc-
ton. 1t was just the other night that a
number of influential Boston and New
York stalwarts held a meeting in New
York. 1t was then decided to prepare an
address, which has been finished. and

An Honest Course the Best.

An honest, straightforward course is
the best. When it comes to deception,
trickery and double-dealing the Demo-
Gratis cannot hope to beat the Republicans.
So that plan of action should be abandon
ed. The Democrats cannot do better than
to openly and unhesitatingly take the
peOpie into their confidence. The Demo-
cratic party is for tariff reform, if it has
anV valid reason for political existence.
The party must be dead to its history and
its traditional spirit before it could be
distorted into an agency for the perpetual
ton Of the present Iniquitous and perni-
ciOus tariff system.

Chandler's Reforms.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Oct. 5.-Secretarv
Chandler did not get away last week, but
expects to leave during the coming week.
He has been very busy on the naval busi-
ness since his return. The change IN the
method of detailing officers, which went
into effect last week, had caused him a
good deal of thought, and was made after
long consideration. 1t promises to work
well. The Secretary certainly cannot be
accused of any personal purpose in the
matter, as he fully expects to leave the
Cabinet next March. He found the whole
tendency of the department routine was
to diminish the power and control of the
head of the department and distribute it
among the numerous bureaus, and this he
has tried to offset.

He gave a reluctant assent. They left
him trembling in his bed, but soon re-
turned, bringing with them a minister
the Rev. Mr.. Horton, and the Intending
bride. They also brought withthem their
reyolYers. Montgomery prOpped himself
up in bed and permitted himself to be
married. His reply to the question, 'sDo

feeble tone, but the sisters forced him to
repeat 1t In one more audible. He then
walked to the bureau and signed a paper.

ried Bibles and bread into the earrets Of

washed of the loathsomeness of those to whom
they had administered, Now they pass

view. There is John Howard, who circum-
havlgated the globe in the name OF Him who

times, through the breast. the mouth
and the head. Both OF their skulls were
badly fractured behind from the balls
passing out, and were badly swollen and

Only the evidence OF the two sons

did the shooting were present, and the
coroner, not knowing who was engaged
in it, and Mr.. Shipman who brought
the news here not having gone down.
So it was decided to adjourn the in

had Al Colt revolver, and that two
balls had been discharged from it.
Watt and his family of six children
had been living down i'm that country
