TIE FJNtI EFFORT.

Election day is nigh at hand. A realization
of this fact may well stimulate every patriotic
voter of the State who desires the success OF
the Republican candidates to renewed cx-
erlions Many a ticket has been elected or de-
teaed in the last days of the campaign.
The argument has been with Mr.. Davenport
from the start. The longer his public record
and his daily walk as a private citizen are cx-
amined, the greater is the confidence that he in
spires Mr. Hill, on the other hand, entered
into the contest vulnerable candidate and has
gone straight on from weakness to weakness.
But the demonstration that Mr.. Davenport
ought to be elected does not necessarily elect
him. 1t simply opens the way to his election
and makes it smooth. Republican newspapers
and orators have done their part-thcy have
made the demonstration. Ii the rest oi the
parry workers do theirs with equal fidelity and
thOroughness. Mr.. Hill will be beaten by de-
cisive majority. vast amount of excellent
practical work has already been done but much
remains undone. 1t is very desirable, therefore,
that as large number rs possible OF sagarious
and experienced Republicans in every district
devote the little time that yet remains to hard
work for the ticket BY Saturday night all
county town and ward committees ought to
have perfected their arrangements for getting
out the full Republican vote and for preventing
fraudulent ballots from entering the ballot
box.
A final concerted effort, every man of us dong
his level best, will give the party victory
whose extent and Significance will not only
delight the Republicans of New \ ork but OF
the entire countrY AS well.

MIL And THE LABOR VOTE.

There comes IL time in the history of nearly
every dcmagOgue when the attempt to
wheedlc what is called the labor vote comes to
grief. For the labor vote" so called, is u
quantity of very uncertain magnitude. The
laborers i'll this State number nearly all the
voters, for the farmers and their sons and
workmen are laborcrs and SO are the clerks
and pOrtcrs in mercantile establishments, and
the railroad hands, and the cartmen and
teamsters and 'longshOremen. Nine tenths of
the voters of this State, it is safe to say, do
actually vote each year with more or less
intelligent opinions as to the effect of theories
or parties on their labor and its rewards. Yet
what is separately called the labor vote
does not often reach two in hundred of the
whole. The inevitable conclusion is that at
least ninety eight ont of every hundred of the
actual laborers in the State despise the dcma-
gogues who appeal to a separate labor vote,
and they hold that their interests are more
likely to be promoted by one or the other of
the political parties than 10y any separate action
under the leadership of persons who make a

Counsel for Ferdinand Ward in cross
examining James d. Fish yesterday indicated
partly the line of the defence. An effort was
made to show that the Marine Bank was in
bad way for long time previous to the
final cash, and that Fish used Ward to
gather in money by hook or crook to save the
institution. This is really little too much
trying to make Ward out an innocent victim OF
another mans wrong. The managing partner
of Grant & Ward was not that kind of person.
1t would be good deal easier to imagine that
Fish was a dupe of Wards, although IN the
light of the testimony given at the formers
trial in the Federal Courts that is not
credible. He was not so actively guilty as
Ward, but the two were precious pair of

day with game at Washington Park, BROOK

and the fact that the championship pennants

among lovers of this game that the baseball
season is too short, and that next year the
championship games should be extended to

Geronimo shall be removed from the San
Carlos Reservation to the Fort Leavcnworth
Military Farm, so that they can be more closely
guarded. General Crooks attempt to tame the
Apaches has not been highly successful; but
there is no reason to infict semi-imprlsonment

inclination to take to the warpath. Naturally
the War Department has shown no disposition
to grant this request.

The arrest of William j. Best, on charge OF
defrauding the Pacific National Bank OF Bos-

people in this city. Mr.. Best has managed
many ruined corporations in New-lork and
has had the reputation of doing well by the
creditors of the concerns. His appointment as
receiver of the Pacific National Bank some
three years ago was due to reports about his
standing in this city and to his large experience
as a receiver.
