Sc YES notice that if the Dem Gratis of
the country are not ready to swa low
The dose prepared by New York they
must prepare for defeat The Sun
says:
However strongly of late Yeas the
ether eections OF toe country have re-
belled again the supreme Importance
OF New York in a Presided tial con-
test, il has generally been recognized,
and lailu GO d. this has been iaJRl.
New York W the deciding factor in
the elections of 1850 and 1884, ard 1t
will he again in 1888, and i, bthloves
our Southern and Southwestern friends
10 remember that such are the facts.
In 1880 the Demcc ats nominated
Gen Hancock against the vote of the
dsls iti1n from New York, who pro.
poge1 the name OF and cast their sew
enty ballots FIR Samuel J. Randall.
The result of that chUics was that the
Republicans carried the State by a
msiority Of 10000, and Gen. Hancock,
whose prospects up to within short
time Of the election seemed 10 bright,
wss defeated on R p,int where Mr..
Randall would have b en- in.prsgns-
bic.
This in meant IT, show that If the
delegation from New York to the
National Convention cannot name the
party candidate for tia Pr sidency,
New York will "knife" the nomit ca
and give the Safe TO the Republican,.
Are the Demoera Of the south and
West going to be intinidated by the
th,est? Are the Democrats OF the
country at large ready to become
| he Sers of wood and drawers OF water
for the machine poitic ans OF New
York? The Sun, vaicing the ssnti-
menls of the New York poll ieiaus,
daras the Democrats of the country to
rebel against New Yors. What are
the country Democrats-the Demo-
ais cf the otherthiry-seven Safes $50
going 10 do about ltP Mr.. John u.
Carlisle, of Kentucky, is jus ly r.
| gards ed rs one OF the ablest statesmen
in the country. He is man of broad
nit d liberal views aud has served his
country faithfully. Democrats and
Republicans sgrte that he would
make an excellent President. Co H.
menting on his chanc 8, the Sun says :
Mr.. Carlisle is looked u, on as a man
Of undoubted ability, high personal
character and sngula business Of
mind and yet, if his name should be-
presented in 1888 ia New York to be
voted Tor President, it is a moral GER
tainy that the majority wonld be
given for the candida Of tho Repub
leans. 1t is no doubt source Of
great regret TO all the admirers ct
Mr.. Carlisle that such should be the
case, but it is the log C Ct facts, and 1t
is inexorable.
The clog C of fac %" seems to indi-
cate that New York is engaged in a
monsrous ef1rt to b'ckmail the
Democratic pa ty of he United States
There Gao be 10 other conc usion
evolved rom the Suns rea oning and
gument. 1t il not Carl sic, Morri-
sou, Mills, Coke, Tucker, Hurd, Bay
ard, Mcdonald or tDa other country
Dem cratt" that the Sun and the Ne"
York machine ar afraid OF. They are
afra d that the rep esenta,ives OF the
Demo craey Of tn United States In
convention assembled will nominate
Cleveland against the protss OF toe
stocked delegation from New York.
The Sun Clotnte Use 4 in fine phrss 3,
but it cannot entirely hide the clover
hoof Cleveland's hon sty hiss m de
him obnoxious TO the boodIers OF New
York, and they are resolved tn XII
HE chance cf denomination in his own
State. Will they succeed?
