New Y Ork Will Cast It's electoral vote ZOE
Mr.. Cleveland. 4
Mr.. Blaine says that $500 is enough
or any mechanic to make day, and that |
100 is as much as any laborer should re-
,elve for days work, and this is the man
who is posing as candidate favorable to
'he workingmen. and asking for their
votes.
Mr.. Marshall, the Democratic nominee
for Congress in the End District, is max
ing splendid canvass against Libby and
the negro Straightout, with fair chance
Of election.
The question with Malone is who will
retire in the 4sA District, Brady or Evans.
Evans says he will fight it out to the end.
1t is very noticeable fact that very
little whooping is being done by the
in the 10th District, We have
not, as yet, met Republican who is will
ing to acknowledge the probability of Mr..
Y ost IS election. Mr.. Tucker will be sent
to Congress by handsome majority.
We learn that, now that the Ohio cleo
tion has been decided, the Republicans
will address themselves especially to Vir-
ginia. and will endeavor by the free use of
money, to defeat several of our candldat es
for Congress.
Rev. Henry Ward Beecher says of
Blaine; "Unsound.i in statesmanlike judg-
ment, INSCRIPTIONS In political methods,
dim-eyed in perceiving the destruction be-
tween truth and untruth. Accordingly am
bilious but short-sighted as to the meth
DDS of gratifying his ambitions.''
The character of the Government can
hardly rise higher than the source from
which it springs, and the integrity and
faithfulness of public servants are not apt
to be greater than the people demand
Grover Czeueland's Buffalo speech.
AS counsel for the Civil Service Reform
Association Mr.. Everett P. Wheeler, of
New York, has addressed letter to the
President respectfully asking that the
charges made against Mr.. Dudley, the
Commissioner of Pensions, be investiga-
ted. The substance of these charges is
that be is showing favoritism in the work
"
of the pension bureau to influence the
election in Ohio and Indiana.
This week will witness the presence of
all the candidates for the presidency at
the Fifth Avenue Hotel, New York.
Rooms are now being put in readiness for
the use of Gov. Cleveland. These apart
ments will be on the second floor, in close
proximity to those now occupied by Pres
dent Arthur. Mr.. st. John, the Prohi-
bition candidate, will stop there also. He
will speak in Brooklyn Tuesday night.
Gen. Butler and Mr.. Blaine are also ex-
pected at the Fifth Avenue Hotel during
the week. $50
Woerishaffer, New ork banker, has
bet $40, 900 even that Cleveland will be
elected, and also SIC, 900 to $4,000 that he
will carry New York State. E. K. Will
lard, New York broker, is also a heavy
better. He now books bets each day at a
rate of 800 to $50 that Clevelend will win
and much larger odds that he will carry
New York. The. New York Morning
Journal says, from inquiry, the following
odds may be taken as the betting quota
tions on the Stock Exchange: On Cleve-
lands election, from even to 800 to $50:
500 to $50 on New York for Cleveland:
that he will get 10000 in New York, 800
to $50.
Hon. P. H. Dugro, Tammany Hall
nominees for comptroller Of New York
city, has declined the nomination on ac-
count Of the death of his fater, and Willis
S. Paine, the present superintendent of
banks, has been named in his place. Mr..
Paine is warm supporter and personal
confidant of Gov. Cleveland, and he was
selected as an earnest by Tammany
Hall leaders of their honesty in yielding
support to Cleveland. 1t is stated that
Tammany Hall ordered mass meeting to
be held next week, at which Gov. Cleve-
land is expected to be present and see how
sachems and braves can cheer and support
him. M
