LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.

To the Editor OF EVENING JOURNAL.
VIII the County Executive Committee
Of the Republican party please explain
why they have ordered separate nomi.
nation election to be held for the district
composed of the Sixth, Seventh and
Ninth wards, on Thursday (this evening"
from o'clock to 10 o'clock D. M. in the
second or third story Of building located
at Tenth and Market streets I'M the
Seventh ward, to nominate an assessor ?
Why not nominate the assessor for the
different districts at the nomination cleo
ton soon 20 be held in al the wards for
senator, representative, and levy court2
Why is a separate nomination to be held
m the night time in only one ward, while
the district is composed OF three wards? il
cannot be urged on the ground OF ex-
pense; rs the nomination Of asssessor
should be made when the senator, repre-
sentative and levy court nominations are
made, and where the county nominations
are made. This looks as if there was
some undetermined, dark lantern work 10
be done at Tenth and Market street
up stairs, in the night time. There Is no
excuse for calling the people together at
two separate nominations when one is all
that is required. The Democrats nomi.
mated their assessor fairly and openly in
broad daylight, on Saturday last when
then nominated their representative and
levy court ticket, and the Republicans
should do the same, if they hope to elect
their ticket in November next.

New York Herald
The Herald has been asked a variety Of
questions about the law governing the
election Of Prosident-snch as whether
the people vote for the President
whether that officer is chosen at the No
vember election or not; whether the
Presidential electors are required by law
to cast their ballots for the party candi-
dates; what would have to be done in
case one Of the candidates should die
The President and Vice President nre
not elected by the people nor on the cleo
ton day in November They are chosen
by electors, and under the present law,
which was recently passed on the second
Monday in January.
IL is these electors for whom the people
vote in November. In every state each
party has a right TO name number of
electoral candidates equal to the number
Of it's Senators and Representatives
Take New York Tho Republicans name
thirty-six and the Democrats thirty-six
The Prohibitionists or any other party
may nominate the same number
These electors arc voted for on election
day by thc people Not vote would
then be cast for Cleveland or Harrison
Their names will not appear ON any
ticket. The electoral ticket which re-
coives the most votes viii be elected If it
be Tie Democratic, that win be th cleo
ton of thirty-six electors pledged to vote
for Cleveland and Thurman.
The electors chosen by the people at
the polls win meet ON the second Monday
in January in their respective states to
cast their ballots for President and Vice
President. The Democratic leaders win be
plt dyed and morally bound to vote for
Cleveland and Thurman, and the Repub-
leans for Harrison and Morton But they
are not required by any law to vote that
way. Eaen one can vote for whom he
pleases. A Republican elector can vote
for Cleveland or Democratic eleetor for
Harrison, or any elector may vote for any
person not named as a candidate Voting
for the party candidate is matter Of
politics, not Of law
The candidates who receive the most
electoral votes on the second Monday OF
January will be elected President and
Vice President

Miller exhibits equal frankness in talking

deals openly with those whose chief OBJ
lection to high license is that, in their
view, the granting Of any license implies
sanction by the state Of demoralzine
traffic Instead Of lodging this objection
or running away from it. he meets il
squarely, showing that the absence Of
licenses would mean total lack of re
striction, and that the true view Of !
license therefore is that it is repressiv,

tive Mcmillan of Tennessee, who has been
out in several small towns in New JERSEY
,Gnd Connecticut trying to explain the
Democratic position on tariff to the puzzled
II emocrats, is in town and had talk with
the President to-day. He states that the
President has directed the campaign orators
who are stumping Tor him, to take no
notice of the Sackville matter and make no
effort to explain it.
The President stated that he had as good
as asked for the recall of Lord Sackville,
and that he expected an almost immediate
reply from the British Government Cleve-
land said he would show the country be-
fore many days that he was nothing but
sincere in the retaliation message he sent
to Congress. He had desired the power
asked for in his retalietory message, but
now he should take some action under the
power granted him by the Act of 1857.
Mcmillan thinks the President will aston

A Question OF the Legality of $4,000 |
Registrations.

NEW York, October 29sh.-Prominent
lawyers were discussing the political sit1a.:
ton at the Gilsey House to-day. One of
them remarked that the Laws Of 1857,
Chapter $50, relating to legal holidays and
the closing of public offices, would dis
qualify all who had registered after y
o'clock Saturday afternoon. II the day S
registration is thrown out, 50 02l voters
will be disfranchised. The Democrats are
greatly excited, and they fear the success of
the State, national and municipal ticket is
seriously endangered, as 1t is presumed a
majority of the above voters are Demo
Gratis.
Assistant United States District Attorney
Rose discussing the registration matter
said "Of course, the legal Saturday half
holiday Law affects only the protestation Of
notes and commercial obligations, as the
law specifically states. A man can work
on Saturday afternoon and bring suit in
Court and proceed as on any other day, ex
cept in the matters mentioned"

saying that he is ar old man and his polit-

longer existed any necessity for the Green
back party, as they had secured all they
wanted. 1t made no difference to him, he
said, who was elected President A Presi-
dent could not do much harm, anyway,
but he preferred to see Harrison elected,
because he believed in protection for capital
and labor
General Butler then proceeded to an
elaborate discussica Of the tariff and Mills
bill. Referring to the Saekville West let
ter, he said it made no difference whether
the Murchison letter was forgery or not
that the British Minister'S letter was not.
