Daily Republican., 1888-08-07
Tho Elsht For N.w York.

: =
New York and subsequently, United States
consul general at London, has been in
Washington day oe two on private buhi-
ness. He lives at Potsdam, N. T., In one
of the strongest Republican counties of
the state, but his acquaintance through
out the whole OF Northern New York is
very large and as he frequently visits ad-
Joining clunties he was excellent oppor-
tunities Of learning how the people feel
aud talk He says that If the election in
New York depended simply upon the
country vote the state would go kepubli-
can by an immense majority. In almost
every t5wn IL ere are few men who vot
ed for Cleveland four years sgo who have
lopenly announced their determination not
to vote for him at the coming election.
Anong those OF whom he peaks are not
included thoee who 1t is only rumored
will desert their pArty's candidate, but
only those who have made definite and
lposi i've declarations to responsible Re-
publicans The cause Of this movement
Is dissatisfaction with the tariff policy Ofl
Pre- .ident Cleveland and the Democratic
party,
There e no tidal wave in Northern New
York, there is no excitement, no march
ing over Of Democrats to the Republican
ranks in .battal ms or companies Men
w. no think for themselves and who are
sincere Democrats suddenly find their
party adopting tariff policy that they!
do not believe in and which they have
always heretofore been assured the
Democratic party did not endorse. They
, simply can not change their lifelong
. opinions so suddenly aud so they quietly
resolve to stay at home on election day or
vote for Harrison. A very few men In
each country town In large state like
New York ii they change their votes or
remain at home might upset the calcula-
tions of the politicians. General Merritt
tays that ho has yet TO hear of tie first
/ Republican in Northern New York who
] is dissatlsh with Harrison or the Re-
publican platform.
> The Prohibitionists are making prepsr-
! ations for campaign Of great activity in
! Northern New York. THY intend to
flood the country with leaflets and to hold
meetings with bands and pro SESSIONS in
} all the country towns. The money has
/ been raised aod the programme ar. anged.
/ General Merritt thinks that they are like
e ly 10 increase their vote in the state by at
/. least IL, 600. Their vote at the last elec-
] tion was 10000 General Merritt also
Q thinks that the Republicans should not
/ underestimate the influence of the re-
' nomination of Governor Hi BE is very
unpopular with the better classes In the
party, but, as the General said: "He
&C apes deeper than any other Democrat
= in public life" In New York his nom.
q inatlon will inspire the men who look for
{ the small offices in the state and their
4 friends with confidence and enthusiasm.
o The liquor interests, with their effective
4 organizations Rud liberal contributions
Q of money, will support him most earnest
lpaa IN oil
/. the facts any reason to be discouraged in
!, regard to the state, but he does see in
Z them rsasous why the Republican work
n in the state should be directed, as 1t Ger
y tainly will be, with foil knowledge OF
II all the facts enumerated.
