writes TO the Sunday Globe as follows: |
want to predict that wha. call the saloon
republican vote in New York and Brooklyn,
controlling not less than 5000 employees, will
be cast solid against Warner Miller and for
David b. Hill. and that in return for that
service the compensation will be 5000 solid
democratic votes for the republican national
ticket making in this section a change of
10000 votes. | have reason to believe that
in Albany, Buffalo, Rochester. all the signi-
fcant city centres, the same game will be
played, and so successfully that the State
will be lost 10 the democratic party. Late
sdvices from Indiana would seem to indicate
a decrease in republican confidence. and a
probability that the State will go for Cleve-
land. The same is true of New Jersey, but
if the republicans carry New York the Cleve-
land jig is obviously at an end.
Representative Milliken gives very
amusing illustration of the persistent at
tempts of the democrats TO deny the result
in Maine. He says the democrats in this
case are like the man killed in railroad
smashup, of whom it was first telegraphed
TO his friends: Johns neck and both legs
broken" AMI soon after this Later and
more favorable neck and only one leg brok-

Mr.. Israel Il. Bray of Freeman. the great
est wool buyer in Maine, is taking deep in
terest in the campaign and the success of
the republicans. Formerly he was the lead
ing democrat of Franklin county; but he is
a strong protectionist and anxious for the
election of Harrison and Morton. He writes
TO friend: If | am not mistaken, a bar
gain was made with Cleveland for his nomi-
nation by the nullifers, if he would make
the tariff political instead of a business
matter, by making it the corner stone of his |
message, and dwelling upon wool, etc. in |
order TO kill OFF Randall and his followers
about 35 in the House. The Endorsement of |
the message by the national convention, and |
abuse of Randall by the democratic papers, |
show it,"
Chester S. Lord managing ed tor of the |
New York Sun, (Dem.) writes the Sunday |
Globe as follows: | think the lection in |
New York State will be very close but that |
he chances favor Harrisons carrying il by |
about 1000 plurality.
The Augusta CORE spondent of the Boston
Globe is mistaken as TO the answer received
BY the young republican in this city who sent
81 to clairvoyant in New York, asking
\ hat would be Grover Cleveland's occupa.
ion after March 4th next. The answer
actually read as follows: "Iie will be living
IN the interest of what he's saved and won
lerng which was the bigger fool-himself
,r l. Ird Sackvile."
Frank Nj. Leonard, editor of the Fort
Wayne (ind) Gazette writes as follows
Indiana will go 10000 republican. The in
coming of factories on account of develop
nent of the gas fields, has brought from
30, 900 to 40, 900 workingmen into the State
n the last two years. Two-thirds of them are
'rotectionists. At least 10 per cent. of the
irst voters this year, in fulfllment of John
Logan's pre- iiction are republicans. The
Did soldiers will vote almost unanimously
'or Gen. Harrison for President. I think
he outlook for the national triumph of the
'epublican party is very bright The West
1t least will make republican gain.
New York Safe.
