GOVERNOR HILL SPEAKS.
The Democracy Must Take No Back Track
on The Tariff Issue.

on Inc Issue.
ALBANY, Nov. "a serenade was rendered
Governor Hill last night by the Buffalo
association, and the Pilsner club, the leading
Democratic organizations of this city and
Troy respectively, in honor of his reelection.
After the serenade Governor Hill said:
Our success in the gubernatorial contest is
In common with every true Democrat,
greatly regret the defeat of President Cleve-
land in the state and in the nation. He de-
served better at the hands of the people of
this country. Honest, brave and courageous,
he CALAMITY led his party in the great contest
for tariff reform and suffers defeat, owing to
false clamor, unjust prejudices, unfair repre-
sensations and the gigantic and combined
efforts of all the monopolists of the country.
He did his duty, as he understood it, regard
less of personal or political considerations,
and he should have been sustained by the
taxpayers, consumers and masses Of the
people. 1t is not now necessary or profitable
to inquire whether the issue which he 50
boldly made might not more wisely have
been earlier presented, or postponed to a later
period. The principle of tariff reform has
only met with temporary defeat. Sooner or
later it will ultimately triumph in this
country. President Cleveland and the Demo-
cratic party We're right and deserved to
succeed. The argument was with us, and two
weeks longer discussion would have given us
the victory. Permit me to suggest that there
must be no back track taken upon this ques
ton.

Alleged Improprieties of The Democrats
of Nashua.

NASHUA, N. H., Nov. 1O.-The Republican
city committee has discovered the method
employed by the Democrats to carry ward
Six in this city A printed list called the
''cow list. of fifty-three voters whom it was
presumed could be bought, was made and
handed to each member of a select rallying
committee, and the men whom they were to
influence Tor to find some other Democrat
who could were checked The prices paid for
these votes varied from $40 to S35. The vote
of the ward was increased some over 100 by
naturalzng French Canadians, and the Re
publcans lost it by seventy-four votes. The
legislature will probably refuse to admit
representatives thus elected, and will divide
the ward.

CARLISLE BALLOTS ILLEGAL.
They Were Marked, And So May De
Thrown Out.

Thrown Out.
CONVICTION, KY, Nov. 9.-There is talk
of throwing out the Carlisle ballots in Camp
bell county and some of those in Kenton
county, on account of an alleged iliegality in
the ballots. Instead of being plain ballots
with no distinguishing mark, as the law
directs, the Carlisle ballots in Campbell and
Kenton counties were printed in long slips
separated by perforations that they might be
easily torn apart. They were torn carelessly
apart, leaving the ballots of irregular shape
and containins the perforations. Carlisles
majority is placed at about 5000. Should the
election boards of Campbell and Kenton
counties decide TO throw out the entire vote
for Carlisle, his majority would be reduced
to nothing, or thereabout The Campbell
county board is Republican and a pressure
will he brought to bear upon it to throw out
the votes. Should any number of the ballots
of Kenton county be also rejected Carlisle
would be in minority, and Hamilton's
election assured. 1t is said that Mr. Carlisle
has taken legal advice.

In Mississippi.

JACKSON, Miss, Nov. This city goes
Democratic by So majority for the first time
in many years. Only about a three-fourths
vote was polled. The state seems to have
gone Democratic by the usual r6Ative ma
jority. In the Third district, where James
Hill is opposing Catchiugs, it is said the Re-
publican vote has Incl eased, but no figures
are given. This district and the Second,
where Chalmers Rep, is opposing Morgan,
Dem, are the only ones seriously contested.
The returns are too meager to form an opin-
ion of the result The remaining five con-
gressional districts will doubtless go Demo-
cratic

THE REPUBLICAN MAJORITY.
Varying Estimates Regarding The Makeup
of The Next House.

of The Next House.
WASHINGTON, Nov. Edward McPher-
son said late yesterday. "All the informa-
ton obtainable justiies me in expressing the
opinion that the next house will consist of
173 Republicans and 1852 Democrats There
is probability that the Republican majority
may be reduced by later advices to nineteen
or twenty, but l have made liberal allow
ances in my calculations for all Democratic
claims"
Representative Breckenridge of Kentucky,
a Democratic member of the ways and means
committee expressed the opinion that the Re
publican majority in the next house will be
very slender, and is confident that it can not
exceed ten in any event. According to his
calculation the Republicans must show a
gain of nineteen Republicans to secure a
majority, and he does not believe that they
have much exceeded that figure.

The Muswumps, Return in Kings County.

BROOKLYN, Nov THE result of the cleo
ton in Kings county was a surprise to the
Democratic leaders who had expected $4,000
plurality for Cleveland. The shrinkage of
the democratic vote into little more than one
half of that figure, is accounted for by the
return of the Mugwump and the Prohibition
indictments of four years ago to the Repub-
lican party fold.
