If the Indepen- dents of New York can induce the iron bound Democracy, which is almost starved to death by it's long abstention from office, to declare in good faith that patronage should be eliminated from political canvasses and that only merit should determine the possession of government positions. and also to renounce protection while protesting against the further accumulation of Gilver money in the treasury vaults, there will be no need of 8 third party provided the csndi- date for the presidency fits the platform.
