Zeiting's editor thinks the Democratic
party must so TO pieces during Cleveland's
term. however much he desires the preva-
lence of those principles which have been

cratic party. He believes the party must
go to wreck, mainly because of the earnest
purpose of many Democrats to adhere to
their principles.

DEMOCRATS SHORT OF MONEY.
New YORK, October 23d-Money is sadly
needed to carry on the Democratic cam
paign. The Democratic papers announce
that the President has sent 81. geo check

ANGRY DEMOCRATS.

Express says Secretary Whitnev's letter TO
the foreman of the Brooklyn Navy Yard
yesterday has been a bombshell in the
Democratic camp there. The Presidents
Secretary, Lamont, has been in conference

much indignation at both Cleveland and
Whitney. The Democrats say Whitney's
letter refusing to discharge Republican en-
ployes has caused a stampede of the local
leaders in Brooklyn. There was an angry

anuy regarding his SURROUNDINGS said
am not concerned in your matters of
local character, but ! share the rreat grail
fication of the Republicans Of the whole
United States that the character Of your
candidate for Governor is of the hiehest
order. and makes him worthy of the
Republican party. Every man who
wants reform will come on Novem-
Der 81 TO the support of Ira
Davenport and General Carr. We've
had victory in Ohio, and TlltelI you why
we won that victory--bccause the Ohio Re-
publicans determined TO plant themselves
on a platform that gave expressions to
sound Republican doctrine When the
Republicans went out of the national
offices, they went out with bands plaving
and flags flying, and every man standing
SIX feet high and looking the world square
IN the face. Nobody was finding fault be-
cause the heresy of secession had been shot
to death on the battlefield, nor because the
cOlored race had been enfranchised. and
specie payments resumed. John Roach.

Democrats have broken down one of the
leading industries Of the country, and
thrown 1900 men out of work. While the
Republican party was in power they in
vented the postal card, with the Goddess of
Liberty printed thereon, but our Democratic
friends changed all that and issued new
card, with the face of Thomas Jefferson.

way to approve President Cleveland, was
to vote for Ira Davenport. | have heard

quality, would have been enouoh To

You can have some idea of the herculean
labors of Cleveland, when he had to take
all his appointees from the Democratic
party" Foraker then paid tribute to the
IRISH and German voters in the Republican
ranks, and said: " If Parnell, with his
tariff views, lived in the United States. he
would be Republican" The speaker
concluded as follows: Give rs q response
from the State of New York, on November
80, similar to that we gave in Ohio October
18th. Gallant John Wise, in Virginia. will
break the back of the solid South, so we
can say we have not only Ohio and New
York, but we want the whole earth, Vir-
ginia included"
