Notes,
NEW YoRK, Oct. 14.--It was foregone
conclusion that the County Democratic
convention would indorse Tammany's
nomination of Mr.. Hewitt for mayor.
Nevertheless all the 1000 delegates at
tended. E. Ellery Anderson, Hubert o.
Thompson's lieutenant and political lega-
tee, called to order and presented MIR.
Oswald Ottenderfer as chairman. He
made short speech TO the effect that he
was much alarmed by the George move
ment. He thought 1t important that the
man who pretended to represent certain
classes should be buried under majority
80 great that he could not rise again.
Frederick b. Coudert took the permanent
chair, and, after the preliminary work Of
ignoring Irving Hall and reporting q dis
agreement on the part of the County De-
mooracy and Tammany conference COM
mittees, Colonel John II. Fellows rose to
nominate Mr.. Hewitt.
When the candidates name was mem
toned the secretaries brought forward a
huge picture of him inscribed with: s'The
office seeks the man. The convention
cheered and the band played "Anid Lang
Syne" and Yankee Doodle" Colonel
Fellows eulogized Mr.. Hewitt as u man,
a statesman and capitalist and further
discussed the labor problem. Every
| speaker of the evening referred TO Mr..
Georges candidacy, but none of them
mentioned him by name The nomina-
tion was, OF course, carried.
Edward Pattison was named for the su-
preme bench and then the rank and file
received great surprise. Judge Water
bury, in a speech that referred graciously
to Tammany's action in going outside Of
its organization for mayorality candi-
date, presented the name of Philip
Henry Dugro for judge in the superior
court. Dugro is the young man who was
| to be the Tammany candidate for mayor,
but voluntarily withdrew in the interest
of harmony and nominated Hewitt. The
convention accepted him as its candidate
with some enthusiasm and more astonish.
inent. So it appears that the efforts Of
the national and state administrations Il
secure Democratic unity In this city have
been successful.
Mr.. Abram Hewitt has agreed to accept
the Tammany nomination for mayor, an6
has written letter announcing that fact
Mr.. Hewitt stipulates, however, that the
balance of the ticket shall be satisfactory J
to him.
II The committee Of one hundred to-nigh

Recently we received a marked copy
of The kenosha Courier, which was
evidently sent ont to boom some new
publishing house or union. by giving
country publishers a pointer in regard
To cooperative sheets. If the wisdom
of The Courier in regard To the CO.
operative publishing business is of a
piece with that which prompted the
writing of its leading editorial adyo-
eating the extending of the protective
system to the restriction of immigra-
ton. we can take but little stock in it.
As reflected by the article referred
70, the creed of The Courier is Know
nothingiSm in its worst form. And
the. vicious, narrow minded. doctrine
of acknowledgement ought To be alb
horred and detested by every true
American. One thing which can be
said in favor of the writer in The
Courier, is that being protectionist
ne is consistent in also being know.
nothing; because it is self-evident tina,
the spoliation system which goes by
the name of protection is an utter
failure unless supplemented by laws
restricting immigration. And thus We
see that protection carried to its full
length reverts back To the original
American system of which Powhattar
was the first notable exponent

The republican Legislature of New

people. This is exactly what repub-
lean legislature of Wisconsin did some
years ago. And yet the republican
press of the state have no hesitancy in
claiming that prohibitionists have nc
need Of a third party. The New York
republicans will probably advance the
same ridiculous argument. The New
York Tribune is free to admit, however
that the refusal to submit the amend
ment was grave mistake in a party

Rev. NJ. Chase, of Trinity (EpiscopaD
church, of this city, in the course of his
sermon on last Sunday morning touched
upon the causes of the labor riots. which
he said have opened the eyes of men to
the fact, that the outcome of the over
throw of the Christian faith, means the
overthrow of society, and business in
terests. For years. by certain well
known lecturer, men had been informed
about the mistakes of Moses" they
have been told to acknowledge no
master. no God; to assert their personal
freedom; to be law unto themselves;
to throw off the tyranny of religious
teaching; to resist as the foe of society,
the church of God. And thousands
of well meaning persons have readily
| fallen in with these views Of life; and
all the time they have been ignorant Of
the real outcome of the adoption by
NlIt JbIItN VI hlCI VI tiACf1' III" d
No reason, no argument founded upon
history, no appeals to their better ma
ture could touch their heart and mind.
History, they said, proved nothing, as
we live in another age, and in new and
better conditions, but the bomb and
red flag of the socialist show us that
history repeats itself. In many cases
men have been convinced of the error
of their ways. To-day they are
brought face to face with the fact that
behind these awful events which have
lately transpired in Chicago and Mil
wakee, lie those ideas which mean the
overthrow of the Christian faith. The
commission of to-day has been an
nounced from that Of the gospel which
tells us to do violence to no one,-and
to bear one another's burdens. Its
motto is No Master and No God"
and this motto, as history teaches, and
as the facts of to-day teach, means the
overthrow of society. Let this become
the ruling sentiment, and business
would be at an end, inaSmuch as the
very principles of honor and honesty,
and faith, which make business posi-
BILE, are the outcome of respect and
reverence for some authority and pow
er higher and greater than self. Men
are beginning to understand this; and
so when lately | heard man speak in
the highest terms of churches, and of
priests, and pastors and parsons, and at
the same time spoil all by his declara-
ton, that he, personally, did not be-
lieye in Christ, | discovered that these
riots of communism had taught him
a useful lesson eyes were opened
to the fact that this, which we call the
Christian faith, is an essential factor in
life; and that without it, as things are
now constituted i'll this world, society
could not hold together, and business
would be impossible. This man had
vast interests at stake, and he could
not afford to put them in peril by
fighting, any longer, the cause of
Christ. He understood the situation,
and saw the error of his life. 1t may
be a hard thing to say, but it seems
true that this offence had to come to
open the eyes of men: "but woe unto
the one by whom the offence cometh."
