New YoRR, Oct. 2.-The opening OF the
New York canvass and the gathering Of
leaders from all parts Of the State during
the past two days has naturally lead to
some discussion Of the Ohio as well as the
home campaign. The reports received
here during the past few days have been
to the effect that Judge Foraker's chances
are materially yimproving each day, and the
news from the northern part part Of the
State is decidedly encouraging. At San.
dusky the Republicans are said TO be %
enthusiastic as they were in the Presiden-
tial campaign, and the reporis from TO.
ledo are also very favorable fer the success
OF the ticket. f. SAN'
Senator Evarts, who delivered a brief
address last night before the Young Mems
Republican Club, made some telling te4
marks on the question Of Southern bal
lot. It was, in fact, the main subject OF
his remarks, and coincided 90 nearly With
some Of the addresses being made by Sem
ator Sherman that they were applauded
TO the echo,
"Unfotunately for the Constitution"
said Mr.. Evarts, with great emphasis
dishonest voters are allowed to.Yote, and
there is no process Of sitting the ballots.
There was some talk last year about the
votes Of high minded people being worth
more than the votes OF the lower classes.
But under cur Constitution We count
votes, and under the Constitution st every
Federal election the vote Of every citizen
can be copnted. This right must be re-
spected and enforced everywhere, and 1t
is proposed to unite all sections Of the
country on that proposition, and we don't
intend to have the country divided II
there is difference Of opinion on that
subject" HszTts

x,Congressman Richard Crowley, Of
Lockport, who is now engaged in law
practice in this city, said to-day: @The
political situation Is certainly, ,favorable'to
the Republican ticket. The Republican
ticket In It's makeup is a strong One, ap-
pealing to the best impulses and senti.
ments OF modern society. The. tone Of
the ticket and the tone ofthe platform,
are high. The contrary is true Of the
Democratic ticket, and the platform Is
Just the contrary. The tendency Of both
is to lower the standard OF politics, to
drift from what Is eleyeting back to what
is degrading. The country has taken
long stride forward, which the Democrats
fail utterly TO recognize" =
