The New York Republicans have made
an accession to their ranks. 1t is clear
gain of one in the person OF Mr.. Vedder
@. Reynolds, of Salamanca, who has
gone out from the Democratic party for
ever. He has been Chairman of the
Democratic County Committee, and had
been summoned before the committee to
explain what had become of a $3.50 cam
paign fund. When he learned that an
investigation was on foot, it occurred to
him that he was training with the wrong
party, and he promptly went over to the
Republican organization, where he is
badly needed, and where no questions
will be sked.-[Rochester Union, (Dem)

Republican Concentration.

IL Is remarked with great force by The
Tribune That tho concentration OF Re
publican opinion goes on rapidly" We
have noticed that ourselves, and have OBJ
served that Il Is accompanied by an
equally rapid concentration Of Republican
members. Every day or two a new lot OF
Republican voters, whose opinions are not
sufficiently orthodox, are shut out, and at
their exclusion the party concentrates"
sosme more. This Inns been going on
steadily ever since Blaine became the
great leader. The Mugwumps went first,
and the party was concentrated so
thoroughly by their departure that
Democratic president was elected. AS
soon rs that was seen to have been accom-
plished. steps were taken to keep the party
so surely concentrated that It would not
be in danger Of winning any election for
long time to come. The door was not
only shut against Mugwumps, but notice
was given that my Republican candidate
who was unlucky enough to command
independent or Mugwump approval should
be ''knif:d" Gnd defeated. This was done
SO thoroughly IN few elections that In
November last the ilattcring demonstra-
ton was made that the party had ''con-
centrated' itself into minority Of about
1900 votes In the state Of New York.
Since that discovery the party's leaders
have been animated by only one purpose,
and that is to do for tho party In the
nation what they have done for It In this
state. They have made ''l,lainc and
surplus" tho party creed, and have SO
concentrated Republican opinion upon IL
that strong party journals in Rhode Island,
Pennsylvania, Illinois, Minnesota, Ne
brnska, Wisconsin, California, with thou
sands Of Republican voters behind them,
have been shown the door. by keeping
the concentration going with its present
rapldity, the party will go into the next
presidential election the Suggest and
iiehtcst little minority which has taken
part in national election for many years.
