Special Telegram to the Statesman
New YORK, September 4.-President
Cleveand's message on the senate'5 re-
lection of the fisheries treaty is still the
uppermost theme in political discussion.
1t is impossible to overestimate the aston
ishment and CONSERVATION which this well
timed bomb caused in the camp of the
enemy. Ii shattered the main string of
their campaign fiddle. In the opinion of
the directors of the democratic campaign
at the national headquarters, Mr.. Blaino's
rabid utterances in point will still further
estrange the Irish American element from
the republican party.
One of the visitors at headquarters yes
terday was Chairman @. l.. Jewett, of the
Indiana democratic state committee. At
no time since the Chicago convention,
Mr.. Jewett says, has there been so much
enthusiasm in the Hoosier state for the
democratic ticket. He thinks the state is
safe beyond peradventure. His commit
tee have organized the state thoroughly
by counties, and rough poll of the vot-
ers shows material net increase of the
democratic strength. There was a mes
senger of good tidings from California,
also, yesterday, in the person of ex-Gov-
ernor Stoneman, who says that without
any doubt the g. o. p. will hear something
drop on the Pacific slope in November.
Not since the memorable Tilden cam
paign has so much literature been dis
pensed for the edifcation of rural voters
as in the present campaign. Besides the
millions of tariff documents scattered
broadcast throughout New York, New
Jersey and Connecticut, most deter
mined effort is being made to
capture the half dozen agricul-
tural states of the northwest, which
are usually found in the republican col
umu. Chairman Brice, of the democratic
committee, expressed the utmost conf
denoe in the success of the party in three
or four of these northwestern common
wealths.i This work is to be put in charge
of special subcommittee.
There has been little or no excitement
over the meeting of the republican state
convention at Saratoga. lt was per
fectly apparent that Warner Miller would
lead the forlorn hope of his party. Miller
is far too shrewd a politician to nurse
any hopes of permanent residence at
Albany, but he realizes the fact that the
nomination will serve him good purpose
by keeping his name before the public
1t is long time to senatorial election,
and it will take strong man to bowl out
Mr.. Evarts; so Miller proposes to shut
his eyes reverently and grab for every
thing in sight.
There will be high junks in this town
when the old Roman pays his promised
visit, September 6. Already arrangements
are being made for n monster demonstra-
ton to greet him. Each of the demo
cratic organizations will do its best to
turn out its full strength, and 100000 men
are expected to take part in the demon
stration in one way or another.
Colonel Brice has already arranged to
have Madison Square garden for the night
of September 6. There will be four
stands outside. At the inside meeting
the speakers will be Allen G. Thurman,
Governor Gray, of Indiana; Governor
Green, of New Jersey; tx Lieutenant Gov
ernor Black, of Pennsylvania; president
of the association of democratic clubs
| Governor Hill, Senator Voorhees,, of In
diana: Senator Blackburn, of Kentucky
Senator Kenna, of West Virginia, and
| Congressman Collins, of Massachusetts
There will be two overflow meetings
on Twenty street and two or
Twenty-sevepth street. 1t is proposed tC
make this demonstration the starting
point OF the hurrRh of the campaign.
The Germans are very enthusiastic
about the reception. Herman Oelrich
said to -day: "a big pile of letters from
German organizations has come in thi
morning asking to take part in the affair
