Nesc York Safe for Cleveland.

The following statement gives the reasons
and they are weighty aud reliable ones. why
New York state may be expected with GER
tainty to cast her vote for Cleveland: Gin
1880 Garfield had a plurality of 81, 033
over Gen. Hancock in New York state. Pres
ident Arthur frankly admitted that Garfield S
election was >aeured by the use of ''soap."
Ex-senator Dorsey in his confessions di-
vulged the fact that the ''golden stream
from Stephenson's bank had kept down the
Democratic majorities and given Garfield the
vote of this state. Yet out of total vote of
l, 103, 945. The meagre majority of 81, 900
was all the enormous corruption fund of the
Republicans and their unbridled frauds could
secure.
In 1880 the Republican party was solidly
united on Garfield and Arthur. Garfield was
the chosen champion of the Half-Breed fac
ton. Arthur was the boss and pet of the
Stalwart machine. Senator Conkling, Henry
Ward Beecher, George w. Curtis and Carl
Schurz were on the stump for the Republican
ticket. The "Independent Republicans
were enthusiastic for the candidates. The
Times, the ESeHing Post, Hd'per'S Weekly, and
Puck were all earnest supporters of the Re-
publican nominees.
To these were added ''the golden stream
from Stephenson bank' and the machine
methods of Johnny O'Brien and Johnny
Davenport.
There will be no cheating or bribery and
corruption in New York this year. The
Democrats have the Governor, the Attorney
General of the state and the prosecuting Of
ficer of the county. The tainted and more
fhan I'd yvin or do 70
further strain public endurance.
In place of unity the Republican party is
this year broken in pieces. A large number
of its best men and its most powerful organs
support Governor Cleveland and Honest gov
eminent. Many thousands of Republicans
throughout the state will not support Blaine
and ind orse official dishonesty.
The Butler farce is nearly ended. No con-
siderable number of persons will throw away
their votes on the clown of the political cir
Gus.
In 1880 the Prohibition ticket, an INSIGHT
icant side-show, received 1,517 votes in this
state. This year, in view of Blaine's pusil-
lanamous ''dodging'' of the prohibition is
sue, Ex-Governor st. 10 hn will get at least,
10000 votes in the state.
The ''Irish revolt against Cleveland as it
has been called, turns out to be insignificant.
Naturalized citizens and workingmen know
that the Democratic party is and ever has
been their true and steadfast friend. They
will not desert the party when it is on the
eve of a great victory.
The large German vote of this state is
practically solid for Cleveland.
The Democracy of the Union may count
on New York's thirty-slx electoral votes fol-
the cause of Clean, Honest Government.

ANOTHER LUCKY COACHMAN.
Miss MagdaIene Drake, of Rye, N. Y.
Follows the Fashion.

New YORK, Sept. 26.-The San this morn
ing contains the following: About two miles
from the railroad station at Rye, n. Y,
stands the residence OF J. j. Drake, who
lived there for more than a score of years.
The house is surrounded by eighty acres of
well cultivated landry far the handsomest
house in the vicinity The news that Drake IS
eldest daughter had eloped with the coach
man created tremendous sensation. The
elopement occurred on Wednesday, but as
the family made no fuss, nothing was
known about it till yesterday. Drake has
three daughters, of whom Magdalene, who
went off, is the eldest. She is very pretty.
The coachman's name is Jesse Carroll. He
is fine looking fellow, nearly six feet tall,
and had been employed by Drake ever since
he was small boy. His father lives
in a cottage about a mile from the
residence of Drake, for whom
the elder Carroll works by
the dav as a gardener. Three weeks age
young Carroll left Drake's employ, and since
then little has been seen Of him around Rye.
He said when he left that he could not gel
along very well with Drake. No reason
for his leaving was given by
the family. Whether or not he ha;
seen Miss Magdalene Drake at heI
fathers house since is not known, but it is
thought they met somewhere to arrange fol
the elopement. Drake babe his three
daughters good bye and went to New YorE
Wednesday morning. Shortly after
be departed Magdalene went out and that
was the last her father or sisters have seen
of her. The first intimation her father re,
ceived of the elopement was ON his return
in the afternoon.
81 don't know anything of the details o.
the elopement."
Drake said last night: "All know is thai
they have gone away together. I am muci
grieved at The occurrence and would
like as little notoricty about it as possible
The young man was brought up in my fam,
lily almost. My daughter is much older than
he is.''
''Have you taken steps toward finding GU
where they have gone!''
81 have done nothing at all in the mat
terri
''Do you intend to try and get you
daughter backl''
NO" said Drake sternly. 81 win max,
no effort to do sou
''There is nothing sensational in the mat
ter at all, - said one of Magdalene's sisters
They have just got married"
81 don't blame the girl a Bit" neighbo
said. II think Mr.. Drake has himself Il
blame for it. He did not allow the girls t.
have any society at all, and it could not have
been pleasant for. the young folks to b,
Gagged up in house in tlfe country and no
have any fun at all the year round.''

Frank Chanfrau was born in New York city, in

French extraction, but his parents were essen
TALLY American in their ideas and ambitions
Frank was not educated with the view to his fol-
lowing any particular profession, and as the
family was in easy circumstances there was
nothing TO necessitate speedy choice of voca-
ton. His inclinatons were early directed to-
ward the stage, and befJfe attaining his majority
juvenile parts. Forty years ago he was prom

about that time that he gained wide and SPLEEN

The reputation young Chanfrau achieved in
this character was more than national, and bore
fruit in the shape of scores
OF invitations, among the better known of
whom were j. II, McVicker, of this city and
John T. Owens. Chanfrau subsequently made
good hits in the character OF Dundreary. and in
his own play, Brother sam, the principal char
acter in which was presumed 10 be brother to
Lord Dundreary. Next TO Nose, Chanfrau was
best known Kit, 1.-The Arkansaw Traveller"
MIR. Chanfrau's early stage training was COM
plete in every detail, and previous to his en-
barkation in his noted speciaties he was known
10 the profession painstaking actor, to whom
none OF the leading actors would hesitate to en-
trust important supporting parts. For thirteen
successive seasons Mr.. Chanfrau opened the
Boston theatre with 1.-THE Arkan-
saw Traveller and Kit was each year
welcomed by a crowded house Mr. Chanfrau
all his life enjoyed the reputation of an exem-
plary man in his private, well rs his profess

Meeting Manager J. II. McVicker this morn

death OF Frank Chanfrau. Mr.. McVicker had
not heard OF the actors death, but knowing of
his critical condition was not surprised.

Let those, says the Albany Times, who
hear the boasts from the stump, OF ''this

scan these figures and ponder. Let them
consider how it was that while the whole
vote against Lincoln and Hamlin in 1860
was 2, 707, 900. the vote for Mcclellan and
PendletoR in 1864 was but 1, 797, 60. In that
100000. how many had retired forever from
politics upon the bloody field Of battle. Let
those who choose believe that the loss is to be
attributed tn accessiOns of voters TO the Re-
publican party. Any one who will recall the
campaign of 1854, the enthusiasm for Little
Mac and the disgust at the arbitrary rule OF
the rasiicals, knows that the OBJECTIONS were
from the Republican camp, not the Demo-
cratic.
