There is one point that Republican voters in
this city and Brooklyn should bear in mind.
The registration is so very heavy that unless
you vote early there is danger Of your not hav-
it will be almost impossible to poll the entire
registration, and obstructive tricks late in the
day may be expected il the Democrats have
reason to believe that majority of the votes
to come are Republican. The only safe thing
to do is to vote during the morning, and the
earlier in the morning the better. BE sure, too,
of your ballots-that they are entirely Repub-

Further information is conveyed by the cable
to day tending to prove that before Mr.. Cleve-
land had dismissed Lord Sackville he had come
to an understanding with Lord Salisbury. The
British Government practically refused to re-
call their Minister. They proposed neither to
magnify the incident nor to humiliate their
representative. At the same time. they en-
powered Mr.. Phelps to say that they did not
wish to do their pet candidate any harm. They
desired him protected, whatever happened, and
there is good reason to believe that they gave
Mr. Cleveland to understand that no fault would
be found with him for taking care of himself
The fact that the country has been denied ac-
cess TO the official correspondence bearing on
this incident is strongly in proof of the charge
that there was an understanding. The Presi-
dent would have the country believe that he
has resented the indignity offered to him and
the Senate, whereas he has simply done what
the British Premier said he might do if he
chose.

It is an extraordinary campaign which Warner
Miller has been making. He said in the conven
ton which nominated him that he would speak
in each of the sixty counties Of the State. While
he has not quite succeeded in doing that, be has
made far more than enough speeches to go round
On Thursday night he addressed four meetings
in this city, and on Friday no less than seven.
The best of it is that Mr.. Miller not only makes
speeches, but votes.

Having become the slave of strong drink,

A recent Chicago dispatch stating that
1t is the determination of the Western
millers TO close down for two weeks in
order to increase the price OF flour was
laughed at yesterday by one OF the lead
Ing Hour merchants Of the city. "It is
only another weak attempt to agitate the
tstablishmeut OF national millers'
trust" sald he. "The idea Of the West
ern millers who are represented In the
eeml organized Milwaukee Trust closing
down for two weeks or more in order to
create scarcity in flour is ridiculous. II
they shall close down at all, and II is
probable that they will for a brief period,
It will be owing TO a scarcity Of orders.
AS matter of fact there is plenty Of flour
in the market, for during the recent cor
ner In wheat the wholesalers laid 10 a
full supply In anticipation OF q further
rise in prices As consequence there is
scare ~ OF orders on the slates OF the

tion that must iall within few duys."

that the segar stores must close on the
Sabbath will be str city enforced, and the

yiolators, SO that warrants can lie issued

horse, pack, wagon. stage, cart, carriage
or drove shall travel or drive upon the

to favor the movement, provided it will
be strictly enforced anc every plsce com
PEELED TO close. They think, and are no
doubt right, that II al are closed, it will
allow them a day Of .sst without injury
