. The states of Florida, Louisiana, Ne
vada and South Carolina, which are not
organized, are put down at LOCO each.
This amounts to nearly 100000 votes.
In 1884 st. John got 150, ,626, and in 1886
the estimated national vote from con-
gressional and state elections was 294,-
6S3. The increase in the California,
Minnesota, Michigan aud Illinois votes,
it is thought, will make those states eX-
ceedingly doubtful. While the result eX-
pected in these states would favor the
Democracy, the vote in New Jersey, it
is thought, would lose the state for
Cleveland. Mr.. johnson does not hesi-
tate to say that the Prohibition party
proposes to keep the Republicans out of
power. While they expect nothing
from the Democrats, they feel that the
Republicans. have treated them badly
and propose to keep them under. The
vote IN the states as given shows that
the st. John vote is expected to be
doubled, tripled, and in some instances
quadrupled.
Regarding the woman suffrage plank
johnson says that while he does not
think it will lose them any votes in the
Northern states, they may lose some in
|. the South on account of it. He says
the only ground for OBJ election to put
ting it in the platform was that of
policy; that all prohibitiOnisS favor
woman suffrage. He says every state
will have an electoral ticket. When
asked for the comparative representa-
tions at the convention just held and in
1884, he said this year was double in
number of states and four times as
large in actual numbers. At Pittsburg
in 1884 West Virginia had but one dele
gate. This year she sent twenty-five,
and many other states showed the same
increase. Mr.. johnson is prominent
lawyer of more than state reputation,
an aggressive ProhibitioniSt, but care
full in his predictions and estimates.
His estimate of the vote to be polled in
= Minnesota is under that made by the
Prohibition leaders there. The vote of
Minnesota was over $4,000 in 1886. Now
it is claimed that it will be $4,000 this
fall, or double what it was two years
ago. The strong movement among the
Scandinavians toward prohibition may
be looked to for startling changes in
this vote.

tember last Philip Palladoni, for shoot
ing his brother, was convicted of murder
in the first degree, and by Judge
BeardSley sentenced to be hanged Fri
day, Oct. 5, 1888. He has been in the
county Jail here ever since. Soon after
being committed the condemned
began to display queer propensi-
ties, the most marked of which was
that of standing for hours at a
time in his cell, both night and day, in
rigid attitude. with his head thrown
back and eyes uplifted, gazing stOlidly
into vacancy. Hysterical eXclamations
and calls for aid upon his departed rela-
tives were intermingled, have only
broken the fits of absorption. He would
neither answer questions nor partake of
food. These and other evidences of a
diseased mind exhibiting themselves
frequently have led to an examination
of the case by eminent physicians,
many of whom declare Palladoni
to be insane. Sheriff Clarkson
and others believe the prisoner
shamming. Judge Lockwood, the coun-
sci who defended him during the trial.

meets on Monday, June 5, to have the
death sentence committed to one of life
imprisonment. The judges hope of
success before the board rests on the
matter of punctuation in the statute COW
ering cases like this, wherein the loca-
tion of comma renders the statute
susceptible of meaning that transfer
may be made from the pardons board to
the legislature itself. That the board
has no power to pardon in capital
cases is manifest; that the leg
islature, were the case argued before it,
might, and probably could be induced
to do so is equally manifest. Counsel
for the condemned will ask the board to
construe the passage in accordance with
its intent, and to rule that the comma
appears in its present position through
the error of a printer. Should it be de-
cided on Monday that the board have
power to either transfer or commute,
new question in criminal law will arise
likely to affect, through this comma,
many cases pending throughout the
state, and of those who are actually
serving life sentences at Wethersfield.

gratifed to say that think John Sher-

into the convention with over 800 of the

not be nominated, think the ticket

The argument which will place them in

The London Christian World notes
that 1.-The charnel house order of relig-

an illustration it takes the following
lines from a paper misnamed the Gospel
Messenger:
Infinite years in torment must spend.
Which never, never, never have an end.
Yes must dwell in torturing despair
AS many years as atoms in the air;
When these are spent as many thousands
more
AS grains of sand upon the oceans shore !;
When these are gone, as many to ensue
AS blades of grass and drops of morning
dew;
When these expire, as many millions more
AS moments in the millions past before;
When all these doleful years are spent in
pain.
And multiplied by myriads again.
Till numbers drown the thought could
suppose
That then my wretched years were at
close,
This would afford hope; but, ah shiver
To think upon the dreadful words, '.For

This almost rivals WigglesWorth.
But such lines to-day are little more that
an epitaph on the belief they describe.

EVERY REQUIREMENT MET.
The Plain Dealer says: The ticket
satisfies every requirement. 1t is invul-
nerable from every point of attack. 1t
appeals to the reason and calm judg-
ment of people, not less than TO
the enthusiastic devotion of the
party to the greatest living states
man. If the Democratic party cannot
elect such a ticket it cannot elect any,
and ought to retire from the business of
trying to elect presidents and governing
the country. The platform is a conser-
vative statement, and yet, it makes
a bold proclamation on the vital is
sues that are actually before the country
and which have to be faced and settled
in some practical way. 1t is not con-
cerned with theories, but with facts.
1t is declaration not so much of what
the policy of this country may ulti-
mately be, but how the Democratic
party proposes to deal now with an
actual state of affairs.
