Democrats, who preach economy ant

We talk about election excitement i'm
this country but where the campaigns
are warmcst they fall short of some of
those abroad, in heat and size of the popu-
lar demonstrations. Thus at Glasgow. ON
the 9th inst. serenity MOUSttI,d persons
marched in II procession ten miles long in
support of the new franchise bill, which
is now the ISSUE in British politics. The
feeling against the House IF Lords was
shown 10y numerous banners bearing
mottos attacking the Peers, and carica-
lures Of the Conservative leaders.
Speeches were made from eight platforms
ON Glasgow Green and the popular feel
ing was stirred to white heat This was
among the cool and canny ScO;chmcn
And the Lords will listen to the people or
they will hear something drop.
We notice that divers Democratic and
DCmOclaiC-aunCN journals are cudcavOr-
ing to make some capital out of the fact
that Burlington elected It Democratic rep
rpscntatiVc this year. as if it were an un-
heard of occurrence. The facts are that
once in five or~iN years this city j. APT to
go Democratic, for IL single year. \ Demo
crat was elected City Representative in
1874. and the sam" thing happened in IS
We have occasionally had Democratic
Mayors. and Democratic muioritlc~ in he
Board of Aldermen. and Democratic city
Judges. The Republican margin in Bur

and may possibly disappear with the
growth Of the city and increase Of foreign
born population. But year or two of
Democratic rule or representation has

1t has been known for weeks that Tam
many Hall would formally endorse the
nomination of Cleveland and Hendricks
when it got ready and this purpose was
announced by Boss Kelly. in IL speech to
the Sachcms ON Saturday. Tammany,
he said. was Democratic organization
and as such must support the ticket. But
the delay of the endorsement for three
months shows plainly enough what Mr.
Kcllv's IriSI,CS are and destroys most of its
value to Cleveland 1t is sulmiocl that
plenty of Tammany Democrats will vote
according to the Boss desires and not ac-
cording to his words. and it is even said
that ex-senator Grady and other leading
orators of Tammany will take the stump
for Blaine. as some of the minor Tammany
men have already done. in advance of the
endorsement" Tammany's rcscntmcnts
are strong and. as in former years, the
divisions of the Democracy will unduuht-
pdlv make strongly for Republican sue
