Blaine has quit the west and gone to New
York. He should have been in that city
last Saturday, when he might have had his
eyes opened.
Governor Cleveland left Albany to-day Oh
special train for New Jersey, and was Cd
thuss stically greeted in every place through

wont be single poor man although Blaine
is their especial friend !.
Old Mr.. David Davis, is very DESTROYS of
returning to the 'fesh pots" at Washington
and it is reported has dickered with Blaine
either for return to the supreme bench or
as SUI csssor to Logan in the Senate, in the
improbable event of that individual being
elected Vice President.
Democrats claim that the Republican
managers have abandoned all hope of carry
ing New York, and find il necessary TO allay
the detection in Ohio, Indiana, Iowa, Mich.
gan and Wisconsin,. 1t is said that the re
publicans will make New Jersey Connect
cut and Indiana the battle ground.
A letter from New York says Roscoe
Copkling has decided to take hand in the

The "Cleveland and Hendricks" parade
in New York on Saturday Of the business
men of that city was the greatest and most
imposing outpouring Of substantial citizens
that has ever been witnessed in that or any
other city on this continent. Everybody
expected that the parade would be big
affair: bat it far surpassed the most san
guine expectations of its promoters 1t was
a vast popular demonstration that was fair
ly astounding in its proportions and enthu-
sasm. The Herald says it was at once the
most remarkable procession ever seen in
New York, and the most significant poti.
cal demonstration made in this campai IN.
Never before has there been a great process
sion 80 strikngly marked by an entire alb
sence of regular political paraders, chronic
party followers and pcu.v voters that are
usually drawn into the average political
street show and often form its most con.
spicuous feature. Never before has there
been such an outpouring of solid business
men and representative merchants to signi-
| fy by their appearance in public procession
their choice of a Presidential candidate.
| They were representative citizens as we'll as
representative business men, and every one
voter And, what is most striking and
significant, their number comprised thou
sands of republicans as well as democrats.
| Nor was it demonstration of business men
exclusively. Labor was we'll represented
by goodIy number of workingmen. 1t was
demonstration to show that the business
men of the metropolis of the nation believe
that the business interests of the country
and the prosperity Of the people will be
promoted by the defeat of Mr.. Blaine and
the election of Mr.. Cleveland"
