THE ALBANY BATTLE.
No Advantage For Either the Bill or
Cleveland Forces.


ALBANY, January 27.-The Democratic
State Committee failed to make choice of
man to represent New York, in the DEM
ocTatic Committee. They met at the Del
avan House. and after thirty ballots ad-
iourned at midnight without day. The
vote was II for Roswell P. Flower and, II
for William ]. Mowery on each ballot.
This leaves the State without Represent
alive on the National Committee. 1t was
square up and down fight between the
friends of the President and the friends of
the Governor, and neither won.
NEW YORK, January 27.-The World
says: THE political wiseacres had their
eyes on Albany yesterday watching the
Development of their theory thar the
State and National administrations would
lock horns on the choice of the New York
members of the National Democratic Com
mittee. Horns were locked according to
expectation, but without remainder of ad-
vantage to either of the contending parties.
After thirty hot ballots, the contest ended
as it began, with tie vote between Flo yer
and MOwery. the one representing the
majesty Of Governor Hill aud the other
the hopes and ambitions of President
Cleveland. Meanwhile it may well be
doubled whether either the President or
the Governor had lost any sleep over the
foundry stirred"
The Tribune says: when the present
Democratic State Committee was organized
the contest between the Cleveland men and
the Hill men showed that the Governor
could count on only six faithful adherents.
The committee met yesterday at Albany to
choose a member of the national commit
tee to fill the vacancy left by the death of
Hubert D. Thompson, when 10. the Cleve-
land men were unable to muster sufi cient
votes to elect their candidates. WHAT
has wrought this change? Can the Presi-

NOFears Emit ertained Touching the Final
Outcome of the Prosecution.
a representative of the Sentinel met
Messrs. Coy and Bernhamer after the YER
dict had been returned. Neither evinced
the slightest uneaslness; indeed, if they
had any fears of the final result OF the case,
they were dissipated by the words OF cheer
poured into their ears upon every hand by
q host of friends. The presence of so many
sympathiZers prevented their conversing
upon the subject of their conviction.
Later the reporter met both gentlmen at
the Bates House, and inquiring as to the
future of the case, was respectfully referred
to their counsel. Neither was averse to
talking, in fact both appeared in con-

IL e defense, were found at the room OF the

talk on the situation. While the counsel
expressed great indignation concerning
the instructions of the court, and the
partisan bias which characterized the &C.

outline their future movements. 1t was,
however, learned that an appeal would be
prosecuted, and, as expressed by one of

Where Log Cabins Flourish

A party OF American gentlemen,
who had been camping out on an
island in the great Lake Nipissing,
Canada, last summer, were return
ing in a sail-boat and were yet sew
en- miles from port when the sun
went down, and with it the sailing
breeze.
A discouraging situation, truly.
"Never mind, | can row you there

who had charge of the party, as
their murmurs arose.
"Why, man, it is seven miles,
there are four Of US in this heavy

Must Vote at Polls He breaches in

An irrepressible conflict is upon us.
We cannot evade responsibility if we

The preacher is not to be politician.
His mission is to save souls, and to edify
the church of God. "If any man speak,
let him speak as the oracle of God" But,
when a great moral question is involved
in the political issues of the day, the
preachers duty is plain. He should re-
member tho words of the Irish orator,
O'Connell: Nothing can be politically
right which IS morally wrong" He must
advocate the right with pen and voice and
vote. We heartily indorse the clear,
positive utterances upon this subject,
found IN the last quadrennial address of
