WASHlNGTON, October "a faithful
worker for the success of the Demo-
cratic cause, who has lust returned
from New York dropped into the
rooms of the Democratic Conorcssion-
al Committee a'fcw days ago, and en-
tertaincd those present with most
encouraging information from thc
| Empire State. He made 40 boasts or
brngs, but simply stated what he saw
ana heard there. He predicts that
New York will certainly give her cleo
torai vote for Cleveland and Hen
drlckS. The Democrats i'm That State
are making a most vigorous canvass.
ana their campaign organization is as
near perfect rs can be. The same
means and methods which were en-.
pl"yed to carr the State for Mr.. Til
uch, when he was actually elected to
inc Presidency, arc now at work for
Hovcrnor Cleveland. Canvasscrs are
visiting personally almost every voter
III the state, and even now fair osti
mate Oh the vote that will be cast can
be figured out.
This gentleman attended several of
lllc DiS political meetings held in New
J ork CITY. at each meeting he met a
great many OF the same people, so that
one cannot fairly judge the real
S'rcli9lh or the respective candidates
by the enthusiasm exhibited ut n public
meeting. Some the men who yelled
themselves hoarsc for Blaine turned
around and did the same thing for
cleveland, and again for Butler. The
Dclhocratlc i, managers arc working as
lhcy never did work before. They
appear to know where the most work
lsnecdcd; and they arc receiving sub
sluh'lal assistance from persons who
were not expected to come and lend u
helping hand. The quiet voters of
New York are going TO have n oreot
deal of weight in tho present contcci
ana TINS is the very class that the Cleyc-
lana managers are making most con-
ycrts nom. There arc certainY Now
York merchants who have picdoc,l
themselves to vote for Governor Glove
land and have contributed 10 tho cam
palgn fund. Their names if published
would create n political sensation
Ihcy are casy-going business men who
understanding that their names should
be kept secret.
Lven the Republicans in this CITY
arc beginning to realize that Governor
Cleveland is slowly but surely gaining
Ia popularity ana strength all over the
Union, by the manly and dignilied
course he is now pursuing. Two
weeks ago many heads were turned bv
n nd H.,
poftcd TO be greeting Blaine wherever
he exhibited himself. Now the report
comes that the Plumed Knave did not
perform his task properly in Ohio,
ana he has been compelled TO rctracc
MS >. footsteps and try to do the work
mapped out for him more SATISFACTORY
Y. On all sides it is admitted that the
hepubIlcansmust be badly frightened
ABOUT Ohio, otherwise they would not
p"rauc Blaine over the State twice.
Among the sporting fraternity, how
ovcT, ONO is looked upon as sure TO
10 ,IIo republican, but they will take all
s,;u .iI 'Wo 10 one bets they can get that If
w. Wn'' not give 10000 Republican major.
W.. mere @ seems to be no doubt a6ont
,rho ,mrst Virginia going Democratic.
cIo;nindt 1niic"mS thn. S made a big bluff in |
| oito,,t:S tl"' ptate, hoping to distract |
attention from Ohio. The Democrotioo In"io
managers arc wide-awake md "'.c onc
watching every move their onno"o ~ "tc
attempts to make. Corresnopp5S p5ScmV,'oS 5om,a Is
Well'Enown Blaine papers admit tI ,h"t "t
yClcVelaud's election now seems ,,rohal oI,t
bic. The damaging evidence w6ich
has lately been brought ont a@ainst
Mr. Blaine cannot but have disne.
,tfons effect upon his campaign.
