EX-JUDGE GEDNEY'S CHEERING WORDS.
DOING HARD AND VALUABLE WORK IN NORTH
ERIN NEw-YoRK.
Fx-Judgo Frederick G. Gedney, who has been
making an exceedingly successful canvass Of the
counties in tho northern part of this State, returned
Yesterday to register, having been at work for the
election of General Harrison the previous days
Of registration The County Committee OF st. Law
renee County released him from his dates long
enough to run down TO this city to save his VOTE
but he will return TO Northern NewYork imme
diatey and continue his work there until tho day
before election. State Senator Erwin volunteered
TO take Judge Gedney's place while he was gone OF
his trip through the northern counties Mr.. Gedney
said yesterday:
I visited the northern region OF New-York sixteen
years ago during the Grant campaign, and have
not seen so much enthusiasm In that country since.
The trip of Governor Hill confessedly a great
error on the part of the managers OF HIS campaign
That city never many drunken men at one time
as on that day. At the meeting list Of forty-th
names Of supposed Republicans who were going 10
vote for Cleveland read. On investigation 1t was
found that many Of the men on that list wero
Republicans who going to vote for General
Harrison, and names are those OF dead men.
In St. Lawrence County there has been no attempt
at getting up uniformed clubs but one Is hard
at work and the only fear that exists Is from money
that tho Democrats are going TO pour INTO that
county.
In Jefferson County there are great many clubs
and a great deal Of hard work is being done Tho
enthusiasm is unusually high. William H. Grinneh,
Of Pierrepont Manor, lifelong Democrat, has thrown
a bombshell into the Democratic ranks by coming out
for Harrison and Morton. He is in the seed business
which the Minis bill mcnaces, and says that be vouid
as soon vote the act OF secession as for the DEM
ocrais this year. The farmers there are very much
exercised over the reduction Of tho duty peas and
beans In the towns Of Henderson and Elisburg, tho
Republicans are thoroughly organized and are making
a great many sacclfces In so far as time ana money
arc concerned 10 is safe TO say that Oneida County
will give 900 majority for Harrison. The stslwart
element that against Blaine Is now unlfed, ana
takes every occasion show It's sincerity All along
the Central Railroad / found that General prrl-
son the favorte, and ascribe that to the lnnuehce
Of Chauncey NJ. Depew."

DEMOCRATIC CAMPAIGN METHODS IN CoNNECrI-

CUT WHICH WILL NOT SUCCEED.
Norwich, Conn., Oct 25 (Specian.-There is not the
slightest doubt about the intention of the Democrats
to employ the most corrupt means TO weaken the
strength of the opposition in Eastern Connecticut
which is tho stronghold Of RepublIcanism in this
stumbled upon evidence of this purpose in
pected way. He looking at the geological for
nation Of Lantern Hill, in the town OF North soning
ton the other day, when he met Indian from the
neighbofng reservation who carried bundle of freshly
cut basket wood on his back held a gun I'm his hand,
and accompanied by dog. Tho Indian volun-
teered his services guide. and the two got to talk
ing about politics
Il don't belong to any party said the red man.
al aIn't been made citizen; II was, I'd be a
Republican, l guess. The white folks TO
and say: Hoxie, why don't you get made citizen,
and get $50 for your votep But you see II l was
made citizen, I'd lose my rights Indian.
I'd have to pay sc IS year my dog there and
couldn't gather basket wood free or have other priv
leges"
so they offer you 500 for your vote Who offered
n?'
"The Democrats. Lots of men is waiting now for
election to come that they get their 500"
Information from other sources confirms this state
ment The Democrats determined to carry Con-
nectfcut 10 they have money enough to do II. They
know that In 1880 the State went Republican by 1900
plurality and that In 1884 It went Democratic by
only 1900 plurality The probabilities are that 1888
will record a Republican triumph again, unless they
prevent the change Of 700 votes from one side
TO the other Their only hope of counteracting the
strong natural tendency In this direction is by the
use Of corrupt influences. Fortunately the Re
publican managers the alert, and 1t Is believed
fraud will be frustrated. The Republican outlook is
bright, and unless all signs fail, Connecticut Will
give her electoral vote for Harrison and Morton
