MAYOR HEWITT, of New York, disagrees
with some of the words and acts OF MIR
Cleveland, as most other good and true
democrats must do, but he announces his
intention of supporting the Presidents re-
election, for the good and sufficient reason
that Mr.. Cleveland is the regular nominee
of the democratic party, and that he, Hew'
lit, Is democrat Such reason should be
equally as effective upon all other members
of the democratic party. Measures. not
men, are what the democrats must no"
look after end what they must he satittied
with during the next four years if their
cause be successful.

1--WE THINK we know something OF the
colored people ofthe South, and we certain
~ are confident that they are practically a
unit in favor of Harrison and Morton. Inc
newa of a heavy democratic strength Is all
moonshine"
So says the Baltimore american. rank
radical newspaper, though not quite so vlo-
lent in i,s expressions as some of the others
of ia kind. But wrong AS the american
usual y is on matters relating to politics, it
is certainly correct in this particular IN
etance. And, if the negroes of Virginia are
.'practically unit for Harrison and Nor
ton" as thes are, why, for that very reason
should not the white people of the Slate be
practically unit for Cleveland and Thur
man.

OcTy Der PLANETs.-Venus as the evening star
Is fair to see though not so brilliant as she will
be in the winter months. An interesting feature
will be her approach to Jupiter Both planets are
at nearly their greatest distance from the earth
and their movements are an interesting study.
Venus will also be in conjunction with Mercury
probably tonight, which may be seen with an
opera gls:s. The moon fulls about the 18TH and
is known as the hunters moon, SO called because,
like the harvest moon, it rises at the same hour
for several consecutive evenings thereby enab-
ling the hunter to proong his sport into the night
The sun, too, is going south, and the days will
grow shorter until Old Sol enters the winter sol
stice when ice and snow and keen northern blasts
will usher in the winter season.

ANNA DICKINSON, the woman's rights
woman, to whom the republicans pay $50
month and travelling expenses, including
outfit. for "whoopen up" Harrison In the
West, GAYS "God Almighty will curse the
SHAREHOLDERS" Aud when her audiences
mildly express their unbelief In the fulfill
ment of her prophecy, she says their dissent
ia "decordaut note of he'll" Luck still
abides with Mr. Cleveland, 30 far at least
as the South is concerned, for every South
hating utterance of the radicals tends to
prevent the dissolution of the soldity otthe
white people of this section and to secure
TOR hin its l53 electoral votes.

Mr.. CARL SoBURZ says there is no Eea-
son to believe that Mr.. Harrison would or
could do more for civil service reform than
hfr Cle LELAND would do if reelected" 1t
is hoped that Mr.. Schuiz is not essayipg the
same operation upon Mr.. Cleveland that
Mr. Burcbard so successfully performed four
wears ago upon Mr.. Blaine but such talk
as that referred to ia very apt to suggest
that idea TO suspicious people. Not real
civil service reform, but the transparent
humbug that now travestes under that
mans is black bear 10 the democracy.

ever we hear man praisipg the President
for retaining republicans in offices which
belong to democrats by right of having won
them, we regard him ss an enemy to Cleve-
land and friend to the republicans" Now
though this comes from the land Of the 80

wisdom in it as if it emanated from the
highly civilized New Eugland, where the
