THE overwhelming influence of the
cities of New York and Brooklyn, in
determining the vote of New York
state, never received better illustra-
ton than in the recent election.
Warner Miller, the republican candi-
date for governor, carried forty-seven
out of the sixty counties of that state,
and yet was defeated by an adverse
majority of over 10000. Hill carried
thirteen counties out of sixty, and be-
comes governor by majority reach
ing into the four figures. The over
whelming influence of Tammany in
the New York City wards, did the
business. 1t is only another illustra-
ton of the fact that this country
in her usual districts is largely re-
publican. The democracy possibly
lies in the large cities. Without the
vote OF the populous wards of the
great cities, and every one knows the
character of much, of that vote, the
democracy of this country would have
no hope of carrying single state out
side0f such states as form the solid
south, and in which the colored vote
is suppressed.
THE yellow fever record in Jack
sonville is about made up. 1t is a
very creditable showing for the medi-
cal skill of those who had charge of
the hospitals and the infected dis
trict. Less than ten per cent of the
patients have died, and very little
contagion was spread over the coun-
try. This shows alike the triumph
of modern medical skill and modern
sanitarian methods. The Florida
staff of physicians who have had
charge during this late scOurge have
reflected great honor upon their pro-
fession, earned the thanks of the
whole country and done no little to
abate the wholesale terror usually
felt upon the advent of this terrible
scourge. Eternal vigilance is all that
has saved the Atlantic coast states
and some of the gulf coast states from
defamation and the vigilance has
proved how effective measures of pre-
caution may be even in such danger.
The germs of the disease may some of
them remain over until the heats of
next season develop them, but no
serious danger need be apprehended.
The disease has found it's master.

Not At County's Expense.

In the county commissioners court
yesterday the old Denver Bill ques-
ton of railroad fare was sprung in a
new way. An INDECENT woman ap-
pealed to the court for money to buy a
railway ticket to go to California. The
commissioners were apparently in ia
vor of voting her the money, when
Commissioner Kiolbassa declared he
was against the practice of paying
railway fare to paupers and others
and taxing the citizens of the county
for the same. He, for one, would con-
tribute cash from his own pocket to-
ward helping woman to 60 to Cali
fornia, if she wished, but he was not
in favor of taxing the people and buy
ing railroad tickets with the taxes.
He put his hand in his pocket, and
planked down his money and the
Judge and other commissioners fol-
lowed his example.
1t is a good precedent to establish
and will have it's effect among the
constituents of precinct No. 8, who be-
lieve as Commissioner Ben does.

The letter explains Why passes cannot be

unfounded reports circulated for political effect
as to the number OF passes issued by this road,
the requests for passes have of late become
numerous, and so many of them based on the
ground of my candidacy for the governorshIp,
that it has become necessary TO deny all appli-

LOTS OF LIQUOR DESTROYED.
The State Police of Rhode Island Enforce
Prohibition Laws vigorously.

PROVIDENCE, April 26.-There was the grea f
est destruction of liquor here this afternoon that
has ever been known in the prohibitory history
Of Rhode Island. Chief of State Police Curtis
had set his deputies at work and gathered in
100 hogsheads of beer and ale, enough kegs of
beer to stock a score OF bar-rooms, and about
$50 bottles OF brandy, whisky and rum. the
whole having market value of about s.. 1000.
This afternoon the deputies poured the stuff
into sewer.
Wholesale raids were made to-day on the
local dealers. and another lot of liquor and beer
was taken IN to be destroyed The first case Of
prosecuting the landlords is near at hand.
Chief Curtis will begin with Or. Grosvenor's
"Palace," which covers large block. Two
dealers in that block have been raided twice
each. IL in week from now the nuisances
urRbated, one more raid will be made each
man, and then the prosecution of one of the
wealthiest men in Providence and a church
member, will begin. The only way that the
landlord can escape will be TO run every bar
room out OF that block.

THE PRospECr IN INDIANA.

How the News of Matson's Nomination Was
Received-views of General Browne.
Special to the Indianapolis journal
WASHINGTON, April 26-There was joy in the
departments and in Indiana Democratic circles
at the Capitol. when a telegram was received
this afternoon announcing the nomination of
Matson for Governor AS stated in previous
kilograms TO the Journal, the ofice-holders from
Indiana almost solid for Matson. and many
bumpers were drunk to him as soon as the an
nouncemsnt of his success was received It
now remains to be seen whether official patron
age can carry a man through at the polls. If it
can, Matson will finally succeed, for every Of
fice-holding facility has been afforded him.
Myers has many friends here, but they are not
in Office. Republicans in Congress regard Mat
sons record pension. labor and tariff legis-
lation in general as very vulnerable. and Re-
publicans from the State are especially well
pleased with it. They say with one voice that
Porter, Wallace. Butler Huston. Robertson or
ony other Republican mentioned as likely op
ponent can defeat Matson.
This evenings Star gives prominence to the
following: Representative Browne says he
thinks the Republicans can carry the State of
Indiana this fall. In conversation with q Star
reporter he said that for any man to say that
the State will certainly go Republican. that it
will certainly 60 Democratic would indicate
merely that he not guarded in his state
ments. The majority either way is so small
that 1t is liable to turn the balance either way
from some comparatively slight cause. Repub-
hcaus have one advantage this time in the want
of harmony among the Democrats, and we may
strengthen ourselves by the nomination of Por-
ter for Governor and could make our position
altogether impreRnable by the nomination of
Harrison at Chicago. The Democrats are weak
ened in the State in this way: Most of those
men who went to work in the various wards and
polling precincts in 1884 expected to be rewarded
by appointments to Office as soon as Mr. CIeve-
land was inaugurated. At first they were dis
appointed. because it looked as though the new
President was going to ignore them altogether.
Later, when the offices began TO be distributed,
they were disgusted because there were not of
fees enough to 90 around. Also. Cleveland an
pointing q few Republicans TO Office weighs
heavily or their consciences. They are not go-
ing to work this time they did before. In
stead OF going about drumming up votes wher-
ever they can get them, they will simply take it
easy. They will go and put their ballots in the box
voting the party ticket. but they are not going
TO do any work. The work done by these men
makes the majority. The bitter feeling be-
tween the Mcdonald and Gray factions is in
furious the chances of the Democrats. The
movement to put Gray on the national ticket
does not better the situation. Mcdonald will
probably not be able to prevent Endorsement of
Gray. but his being the ticket will not add
any to the chance of success of the Democrats

novel case of Bovcostine.

MILWAUKEE. Wis, April 26.--Five members
of the Hebrew congregations, RAnse Jacob and
Moses Moptfriar, were held for trial to-day by
Judge Mallory, in a preliminary hearing for
boycotting q Hebrew butcher named Jacob
Weisfed and for conspiring to injure his busi-
ness. The examination lasted all day and the
courtroom was packed. The charge made was
that the congregations boycotted Weisfeld's
butcher shop because he refused to pay tax of
one-half cent pound to the rabbis of the con-
gregations He swore that one night in March
he called from his house at midnight, and
went to the synagogue where the five defend
ants first proposed to levy this tithe. When he
demurred they threatened to declare his meat
unclean, that is, contrary to the manner pre-
scriped by the Mosaic law as recognized by
orthodox Hebrews. The defense tried to prove
that the butcher actually slaughtered the meat
in an unorthodox fashion.
