benefit Of any politician or favored persons,
but for the benefit OF the whole people. This
is just the result most desired. We have
reached time when party amounts TO little.
The country is above all, anS wants an hon
est government by honest men. The belief
that they will find this in you has caused
your election. Yours, very truly,

THE ''sUS'' on CLEVELAND.
Especial Telegram TO the Globe.
NEW YORK. Nov. s.-This mornings Sun
says: The people have determined that
Grover Cleveland shall be president Of the
United States. While we, who have done
our duty in earnest endeavors 10 prevent
such decision as has finally been rendered,
cannot be expected to cherish any sanguine
expectations OF good to result from the
installation of the elected president, we yet
submit to the peoples viii in the hope that
events may turn out better than our fears
have led us to anticipate. At least, Mr..
Cleveland must have a fair chance to show
what he can do.
BETS BEING PAID on WALL STREET.
NEW YORK, Nov. Sat the request Of
the Democratic state committee John Kelly
ordered a salute of 100 guns fred in
front of Tammany hall at u O'Clock to-day.
The excitement of election has now subsidized
very much in the city, and most Of the
special bulletin boards in front Of the news
paper Offices are removed. A small nun Der
of people are gathered in Printing House
square, but there was nothing 10 read and
no one remained long. Bets on the election
arc being paid by Wall street men who bet
on Blaine. aud business is returning 10 its
normal condition.
THE Sun STILL HANGS TO ITS FIGURES.
NEW YORK, Nov s.-The Sun SAYS: One
of the most remarkable features Of this ex-
ceedingly and exciting election has been the
wide discrepancy between the various cont
putations Of the result in New York stste Of
fered to the public from different sources.
Not only have both sides claimed a plurality
for their candidate, but their estimates have
been as much as 10000 apart. Although it
was apparent on Wednesday morning that
the result must be very close returns col
lected by The Sun from every locality ia the
state have from the first indicated a SIN al
plurality for Cleveland, and when this
has been slowly cut down, as the corrected
figures have reached as, il seems now 10
have reached a point where comparatively
little change is likely 10 be made by further
revision. While the Associated press returns
from election districts appear 20 vary cOnsid-
cradle from the figures we obtained, and 70
give some coun.enance 10 the claim OF the
Republican national committee that Blaine
has carried the state by very small plu-
rality, yet we have been SO far unable 10 dis
cover any reason for expecting any change in
the result as shown by our carefully
handled returns, which give Cleveland plu-
rality of ,206 in this state. The Times com
putes the plurality of Cleveland at 1861, and
the Herald places Cleveland's plurality al
1906. The World says Cleveland's probable
plurality in the state is !, 424. The Tribune
extra says the estimates as TO the result in
this state continues fuctuatng IN such a
way, as the returns from time 10 time come
in, as 10 show that the majority is so narrow
that the official count will be indispensable to
determine the result.
THE BRooKLYN COUNT ALL RIGHT.
New YORK, Nov. Selection excitement
of Brooklyn has subsidized and business re-
sumed. The bulletin boards and telegraph
Offices are deserted and political banners
have been furled. The committee Of Dem
ocrats who are comparing the returns Of the
presidential vote completed their labors to-
day. 1t was found that the second set Of
returns agreed exactly. The comparison was
the returns OF this city. The two sets that
were compared were those delivered TO the
county clerk and to the police commission
ers.
